First Lesson
Jeremiah 31:27-34
The days are surely coming, says the Lord, when I will sow the house of Israel and the house of Judah with the seed of humans and the seed of animals. And just as I have watched over them to pluck up and break down, to overthrow, destroy, and bring evil, so I will watch over them to build and to plant, says the Lord. In those days they shall no longer say: “The parents have eaten sour grapes, and the children’s teeth are set on edge.” But all shall die for their own sins; the teeth of everyone who eats sour grapes shall be set on edge. The days are surely coming, says the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house The Word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

of Judah. It will not be like the covenant that I made with their ancestors when I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt-- a covenant that they broke, though I was their husband, says the Lord. But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord: I will put my law within them, and I will write it on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. No longer shall they teach one another, or say to each other, “Know the Lord,” for they shall all know me, from the least of them to the greatest, says the Lord; for I will forgive their iniquity, and remember their sin no more.
Psalm
97 98 99 100 101 102 103 104
119:97-104 • sung by all — bold type indicates change of chord
Oh, how I love your law! * all the day long it is in my mind.
Your commandment has made me wiser than my enemies, * and it is always with me. I have more understanding than all my teachers, * for your decrees are my study. I am wiser than the elders, * because I observe your com-mandments. I restrain my feet from every evil way, * that I may keep your word.
I do not shrink from your judgments, * because you yourself have taught me.
How sweet are your words to my taste! * they are sweeter than honey to my mouth.
Through your commandments I gain under-standing; * therefore I hate every lying way.
Second Lesson
2 Timothy 3:14-4:5
As for you, continue in what you have learned and firmly believed, knowing from whom you learned it, and how from childhood you have known the sacred writings that are able to instruct you for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. All scripture is inspired by God and is useful for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, so
that everyone who belongs to God may be proficient, equipped for every good work. In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and in view of his appearing and his kingdom, I solemnly urge you: proclaim the message; be persistent whether the time is favorable or unfavorable;
3
convince, rebuke, and encourage, with the utmost patience in teaching. For the time is coming when people will not put up with sound doctrine, but having itching ears, they will accumulate for themselves teachers
to suit their own desires, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander away to myths. As for you, always be sober, endure suffering, do the work of an evangelist, carry out your ministry fully
The Word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God. Alleluia Verse

Luke 18:1-8
The Holy Gospel of our Lord, Jesus Christ, acording to Luke.
Glory to you Lord Christ
Jesus told his disciples a parable about their need to pray always and not to lose heart. He said, “In a certain city there was a judge who neither feared God nor had respect for people. In that city there was a widow who kept coming to him and saying, `Grant me justice against my opponent.’ For a while he refused; but later he said to himself, `Though I have no fear of God and no respect for anyone, yet because this The Gospel of the Lord.
Praise to you, Lord Christ. Sermon

The Very Reverend Joan Pritcher
widow keeps bothering me, I will grant her justice, so that she may not wear me out by continually coming.’” And the Lord said, “Listen to what the unjust judge says. And will not God grant justice to his chosen ones who cry to him day and night? Will he delay long in helping them? I tell you, he will quickly grant justice to them. And yet, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth?”

My dear people of Christ Church Cathedral and our guests,
Welcome to worship at the Cathedral—I hope you are finding what you are looking for. If you are a guest, let us know how we can help.
We are moving closer to our 2017 Stewardship Campaign, Living Generously, which begins in just three weeks. Today, we contemplate God’s faithfulness to us. You will hear more about that in the sermon, and you can read more about it in Stewardship Notes on page 3. Begin to consider how you will respond to the invitation to live generously and contribute to ministry at Christ Church Cathedral for the important coming year. Mark your calendars to be with us for these 3 important Sundays: • October 30, two weeks from today, we will thank God for the gift of our imaginations. All of you (both young, and young at heart) are invited to give your masks or costumes a test-run for your Halloween fun. • November 6, three weeks from today, is All Saints’ Sunday and the launch of Living Generously. In the Eucharistic Prayer at both services, we will remember loved ones who have died. And following 10:30 worship, join us for an extended Coffee Hour and Sacred Conversation on our stewardship theme, Living Generously. • November 20, five weeks from today, is Christ the King Sunday, our Feast of Name, and the In-Gathering of Pledges for Living Generously 2017. You will receive a Pledge Card by mail in two weeks. Consider prayerfully how you will complete that card and commit to support ministry to God through Christ Church Cathedral for this important year. You may either return your pledge card by mail or bring it with you. Note the environmentally friendly QR code that is posted at each entrance (see it below also). You can go paperless each Sunday as I do—use the QR code to scan and download the Service Bulletin and Cathedral Matters into your device. Read more about this and other electronic communication on page 5. And as you prepare for worship, reflect upon these words of Hildebert of Lavardin: God is over all things, under all things, outside all; within but not enclosed; without but not excluded; above but not raised up; below but not depressed; wholly above, residing; wholly beneath, sustaining; wholly without, embracing; wholly within, filling. Faithfully, The Very Reverend Joan Pritcher Your Dean in the Interim On this Twenty Second Sunday after Pentecost

All Saints’ Sunday Remembrance
Please write the names of loved ones on the list in the office hallway. Their name will be included in the Eucharistic Prayer on All Saints’ Sunday, November 6. Names must be submitted by Sunday, October 30.
we study Sunday Bible Study
Every Sunday, 9:15 a.m. in the library Tom Peters leads a group in reading and studying through the Bible. The group is working its way through the Gospel of Luke. You are invited to join the group at any time.
Children’s Sunday School
Children’s Sunday School uses a clergy, chapter, parent and parishioner-led Montessori-based curriculum. We have added to our team: an Art Specialist, Stephanie Potter; an Assistant Presenter, Carol Syvertsen; and several special aides. Special thanks to Dorothy Converse, Hollis Real, Chase Durnil, Katie Grace Gilliam, Hunter Gilliam, Lauren Radeker, Amelia Vickerstaff, Janelle Vickerstaff, and Dr. Mike Foster. Contact Dean Pritcher if you would like to help with class preparation.
we work Next Community Breakfast Nov. 6
The next Community Breakfast is next Sunday, November 6, 8:45 – 9:30 a.m., in Bishops’ Hall. Serving our friends, neighbors, and fellow parishioners is one of the most rewarding ministries at Christ Church Cathedral, and you should be involved. In addition to serving breakfast, personal care and food items are always accepted for the food pantry and Central Louisville Community Ministry. We need your help—contact Randy Peters if you can do that.
Reaching Out for Outreach Community Breakfast
The Cathedral Community Breakfast is held the first Sunday of each month. We primarily serve people who are homeless or who have low incomes. An average of 50 or more people attend each month. Cathedral members are welcome as well. The breakfast is served by volunteers from the Cathedral, and occasionally people from other Episcopal churches. The volunteers donate most of the food. Usually we have 12 volunteers and which includes a loyal group who come each month. It is a wonderful ministry which is meaningful to our volunteers and our guests. Come and join us, we always need extra hands.
Downtown Episcopal Outreach (DEO)
DEO addresses gap needs that arise in service agencies throughout central Louisville. Using the Dean’s Discretionary Fund, and working with outreach partners including Central Louisville Community Ministries, Our Merciful Savior Episcopal Church and St. George’s Episcopal Church, we help with expenses such as ID application fees, prescription drugs, utilities, and some transportation costs. You can help by contributing to the Dean’s Discretionary Fund, and by putting coins and bills in the DEO Piggy Bank.
CLOUT
Citizens of Louisville Organized and United Together CLOUT is an organization of 18 religious congregations and groups of over 12,000 members working together to solve critical community problems by holding systems accountable: to “do justice, love kindness (mercy), and walk humbly with God (Micah 6:8).” CLOUT has recently ended a successful year bringing about the funding of JCPS work for restorative justice and building the Affordable Housing Trust Fund. Many thanks to Jim Monin, Mildred Franks, Page Curry, Mildred Payne, John Kiesel and Linda Kiesel for their leadership. Prayerfully consider joining them for this next year of challenges. STEWARDSHIP NOTES
Living Generously
If the thoughtless judge in today’s Gospel passage can find it in himself to respond to the persistent woman who seeks his help, how much more will God respond to us and our needs? Luke is writing this message of Christ to the disciples at a time in the life of the early church when they are experiencing persecution—when they are most challenged to stay the course with their faith. He encourages them to persevere, for God is with them. That is a good word for us as we face challenges in our own life and in the life of our community of faith: • stay the course • persevere • remember that God is with us Dietrich Bonhoeffer, who lived and served during World War II in Germany, knew something about this. He wrote: Prayer is the break in the circle of anxious hesitation . . . the confrontation with the tempest of events. Our journey into living generously continues— stay tuned!

Today’s Coffee Hour host is Dorothy Converse. Be sure to thank her for her hospitality.

Cathedral Landscape Audit
The Landscape Audit pilot project is in cooperation with other Louisville houses of faith through the Center for Interfaith Relations and in partnership with the Nature Conservancy and Green Faith. It springs from a spiritual connection with the land and a desire to address our poor air quality. The goal is to make a record of Louisville’s trees, plants, ground cover and wild life (e.g. squirrels, birds)—one church, synagogue, or mosque at a time. There is no cost involved in this selfaudit and it will take place between now and the end of October.

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!
