First Lesson
Jeremiah 32:1-3a, 6-15
The word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord in the tenth year of King Zedekiah of Judah, which was the eighteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar. At that time the army of the king of Babylon was besieging Jerusalem, and the prophet Jeremiah was confined in the court of the guard that was in the palace of the king of Judah, where King Zedekiah of Judah had confined him. Jeremiah said, The word of the Lord came to me: Hanamel son of your uncle Shallum is going to come to you and say, “Buy my field that is at Anathoth, for the right of redemption by purchase is yours.” Then my cousin Hanamel came to me in the court of the guard, in accordance with the word of the Lord, and said to me, “Buy my field that is at Anathoth in the land of Benjamin, for the right of possession and redemption is yours; buy it for yourself.” Then I knew that this was the word of the Lord. The Word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.
2
And I bought the field at Anathoth from my cousin Hanamel, and weighed out the money to him, seventeen shekels of silver. I signed the deed, sealed it, got witnesses, and weighed the money on scales. Then I took the sealed deed of purchase, containing the terms and conditions, and the open copy; and I gave the deed of purchase to Baruch son of Neriah son of Mahseiah, in the presence of my cousin Hanamel, in the presence of the witnesses who signed the deed of purchase, and in the presence of all the Judeans who were sitting in the court of the guard. In their presence I charged Baruch, saying, Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Take these deeds, both this sealed deed of purchase and this open deed, and put them in an earthenware jar, in order that they may last for a long time. For thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Houses and fields and vineyards shall again be bought in this land.
Psalm
1 2 3 4 5 6 14 15 16
91:1-6, 14-16 • sung by all
He who dwells in the shelter of the /Most High, * abides under the shadow of /the Almighty.
He shall say to the Lord, “You are my refuge and my /stronghold, * my God in whom I /put my trust.” He shall deliver you from the snare of the hun/ter * and from the /deadly pestilence.
He shall cover you with his pinions, and you shall find refuge under his /wings; * his faithfulness shall be a /shield and buckler. You shall not be afraid of any terror by /night, * nor of the arrow that /flies by day;
Of the plague that stalks in the /darkness, * nor of the sickness that lays waste / at mid-day.
Because he is bound to me in love, therefore will I de/liver him; * I will protect him, because he /knows my Name.
He shall call upon me, and I will /answer him; * I am with him in trouble; I will rescue him and bring /him to honor. With long life will I /satisfy him, * and show him /my salvation.
Second Lesson
1 Timothy 6:6-19
There is great gain in godliness combined with contentment; for we brought nothing into the world, so that we can take nothing out of it; but if we have food and clothing, we will be content with these. But those who want to be rich fall into temptation and are trapped by many senseless and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil, and in their eagerness to be rich some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many pains. But as for you, man of God, shun all this; pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance, gentleness. Fight the good
fight of the faith; take hold of the eternal life, to which you were called and for which you made the good confession in the presence of many witnesses. In the presence of God, who gives life to all things, and of Christ Jesus, who in his testimony before Pontius Pilate made the good confession, I charge you to keep the commandment without spot or blame until the manifestation of our Lord Jesus Christ, which he will bring about at the right time-- he who is the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords. It is he alone who has immortality and dwells in unapproachable light, whom no one
3
has ever seen or can see; to him be honor and eternal dominion. Amen. As for those who in the present age are rich, command them not to be haughty, or to set their hopes on the uncertainty of riches, but rather on God who richly provides us
with everything for our enjoyment. They are to do good, to be rich in good works, generous, and ready to share, thus storing up for themselves the treasure of a good foundation for the future, so that they may take hold of the life that really is life.
The Word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God. Alleluia Verse

Luke 16:19-31
The Holy Gospel of our Lord, Jesus Christ, acording to Luke.
Glory to you Lord Christ
Jesus said, “There was a rich man who was dressed in purple and fine linen and who feasted sumptuously every day. And at his gate lay a poor man named Lazarus, covered with sores, who longed to satisfy his hunger with what fell from the rich man’s table; even the dogs would come and lick his sores. The poor man died and was carried away by the angels to be with Abraham. The rich man also died and was buried. In Hades, where he was being tormented, he looked up and saw Abraham far away with Lazarus by his side. He called out, `Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue; for I am in agony in these flames.’ But Abraham said, `Child, remember that during your lifetime The Gospel of the Lord.

Praise to you, Lord Christ.
you received your good things, and Lazarus in like manner evil things; but now he is comforted here, and you are in agony. Besides all this, between you and us a great chasm has been fixed, so that those who might want to pass from here to you cannot do so, and no one can cross from there to us.’ He said, `Then, father, I beg you to send him to my father’s house-- for I have five brothers-- that he may warn them, so that they will not also come into this place of torment.’ Abraham replied, `They have Moses and the prophets; they should listen to them.’ He said, `No, father Abraham; but if someone goes to them from the dead, they will repent.’ He said to him, `If they do not listen to Moses and the prophets, neither will they be convinced even if someone rises from the dead.’”

Fight the good fight with all thy might, Christ thy strength and Christ thy right; lay hold on life, and it shall be thy joy and crown eternally.
Run the straight race through God’s good grace, lift up thine eyes and seek his face; Life with its way before us lies, Christ is the path and Christ the prize. Cast care aside, lean on thy Guide; his boundless mercy will provide; Trust, and thy trusting soul shall prove Christ is its life and Christ its love. Faint not nor fear, his arms are near; he changeth not, and thou are dear; Only believe, and thou shalt see that Christ is all in all to thee. Amen. • all stand

My dear people of Christ Church Cathedral and our guests, Your preacher today is Fr. Bill Bippus. Take a moment to thank him for his service to us— today and everyday as a Pastoral Associate for Christ Church Cathedral.
Gardeners were busy yesterday and will also be working this Tuesday, October 8, and October 11. These four building and garden workdays are part of our preparation for Diocesan Convention in November and for Christmas services in December. Read more about it on page 6 and let us know if you can help. Take a look at the special insert placed in your Cathedral Matters. This is the first of several articles that will sharpen our seasonal focus on ‘Living Generously’. In the coming weeks, we will think more about what that can do to enrich us and position us to make a difference in our lives and the life of our community of faith. In November, we will cap off this time of study with our annual stewardship campaign. Stay tuned for more thoughts on living generously. On Tuesday, at Midday Mass, we will remember St. Vincent de Paul, founder of the Lazarist Fathers and the Sisters of Charity. Check out all our Midday Mass commemorations for the week on page 2. In addition, let us know your prayer requests so we can remember them both at Morning Prayer and midday worship. As you prepare for worship today, join me in reflecting upon this prayer attributed to St. Vincent: You will find out that charity is a heavy burden to carry; heavier than a bowl of soup and the full basket. But you will keep your gentleness and your smile. It is not enough to give soup and bread, this the rich can do. You are the servant of the poor, always smiling, and always good humored. They are your masters (terribly sensitive) and exacting masters. You will see, the uglier and dirtier they will be, the more unjust and insulting, the more love you must give. It is only for your love alone that the poor will forgive you the bread you give to them. I am glad you are here today. Faithfully, The Very Reverend Joan Pritcher Your Dean in the Interim On this Nineteenth Sunday after Pentecost

With a few more volunteers, we can schedule hosts for three times a year rather than four. The emphasis at coffee hour is hospitality and welcome—a simple offering is sufficient. Contact Randy Peters (rpeters421@yahoo.com).
Parking At The Cathedral
Parking has been arranged for Sunday mornings at 3 locations: 1) the Transamerica Parking Lot adjacent to Cathedral Commons (Sunday mornings only), at the corner of 2nd and Muhammed Ali: the old “Midas Lot” behind the Cathedral and entered by 1st St. at Louisville Surgical Center entrance; and the YMCA Garage on 2nd St. The Transamerica lot is only to be used for Sunday mornings (you will be towed if you park there at other times). The old “Midas Lot” can also be used on Sunday mornings and in the evenings and on Saturday when the Louisville Surgical Center is closed. The YMCA Garage can be used at anytime although there maybe a parking fee depending on day and time. We will continue to work on other options.

If you want to help but cannot come to one of these days, the list will be posted and you may help at your convenience. We will have coffee and muffins and lunch, depending on expected turnout. The hours are 9:00 - mid-afternoon. We want to have most of the work finished in order to have the garden looking spiffy for the Diocesan Convention which the Cathedral will host in early November.

Why do we pray, study, work, listen and build?
Benedict, the father of Benedictine spirituality, suggested that our life is best balanced between prayer, study, and work. We have taken that challenge as the basis of our common life together at Christ Church Cathedral: We pray (worship and the arts). We study (spiritual formation). We work (service to others). In addition, we know that we are sustained by our life together, and that works best when we listen to one another. We also aim to build and maintain a structure that will support all of our ministry efforts. And so: We listen (cathedral life and fellowship), We build (administration). In Cathedral Matters, you will find information about ministry opportunities at the Cathedral which fit into all five of these areas. Under each of the five main categories you will see what is new to the listing for this week. You will notice that some paragraphs repeat weekly, so that our guests won’t miss any news. You are urged to take your Cathedral Matters home with you so that you will have it for ready reference. Now, read about our ministry, think about how you would like to be involved...and jump right in!
