First Lesson
Isaiah 65:17-25
For I am about to create new heavens and a new earth; the former things shall not be remembered or come to mind. But be glad and rejoice forever in what I am creating; for I am about to create Jerusalem as a joy, and its people as a delight. I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and delight in my people; no more shall the sound of weeping be heard in it, or the cry of distress. No more shall there be in it an infant that lives but a few days, or an old person who does not live out a lifetime; for one who dies at a hundred years will be considered a youth, and one who falls short of a hundred will be considered accursed. They shall build houses and inhabit them; they shall plant vineyards and eat their fruit. They shall not build and another inhabit; they shall not plant and another eat; for like the days of a tree shall the days of my people be, and my chosen shall long enjoy the work of their hands. They shall not labor in vain,
2
or bear children for calamity; for they shall be offspring blessed by the Lord-and their descendants as well. Before they call I will answer, while they are yet speaking I will hear. The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, the lion shall eat straw like the ox; but the serpent-- its food shall be dust! They shall not hurt or destroy on all my holy mountain, says the Lord. The Word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.
Canticle 9 • Hymn 679
Second Lesson
2 Thessalonians 3:6-13
Now we command you, beloved, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to keep away from believers who are living in idleness and not according to the tradition that they received from us. For you yourselves know how you ought to imitate us; we were not idle when we were with you, and we did not eat anyone’s bread without paying for it; but with toil and labor we worked night and day, so that we might not burden any of you. This was not because we do
not have that right, but in order to give you an example to imitate. For even when we were with you, we gave you this command: Anyone unwilling to work should not eat. For we hear that some of you are living in idleness, mere busybodies, not doing any work. Now such persons we command and exhort in the Lord Jesus Christ to do their work quietly and to earn their own living. Brothers and sisters, do not be weary in doing what is right.
The Word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

Luke 21:5-19
The Holy Gospel of our Lord, Jesus Christ, acording to Luke.
Glory to you Lord Christ
When some were speaking about the temple, how it was adorned with beautiful stones and gifts dedicated to God, Jesus said, “As for these things that you see, the days will come when not one stone will be left upon another; all will be thrown down.” They asked him, “Teacher, when will this be, and what will be the sign that this is about to take place?” And he said, “Beware that you are not led astray; for many will come in my name and say, `I am he!’ and, `The time is near!’ Do not go after them. “When you hear of wars and insurrections, do not be terrified; for these things must take place first, but the end will not follow immediately.” Then he said to them, “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; The Gospel of the Lord.
Praise to you, Lord Christ.

there will be great earthquakes, and in various places famines and plagues; and there will be dreadful portents and great signs from heaven. “But before all this occurs, they will arrest you and persecute you; they will hand you over to synagogues and prisons, and you will be brought before kings and governors because of my name. This will give you an opportunity to testify. So make up your minds not to prepare your defense in advance; for I will give you words and a wisdom that none of your opponents will be able to withstand or contradict. You will be betrayed even by parents and brothers, by relatives and friends; and they will put some of you to death. You will be hated by all because of my name. But not a hair of your head will perish. By your endurance you will gain your souls.”

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.
In today’s gospel, Jesus asks us to imagine the unimaginable. He warns that the Temple, the center of religious and secular life, will be destroyed. That will be accompanied by political disruption and persecution leading up to and following it. Jesus, himself, will be dead within a week of this conversation and the Temple will be toppled less than 40 years later. The rest played out as he described it too. Many who heard him speak that day probably witnessed it all. Life, as they had known it, was forever changed. But our Lesson today circles back to Isaiah’s description of new life for his people several centuries before today’s Gospel. He describes the aftermath to their own experience of destruction. They were certain that nothing was more life-changing than their suffering. But Isaiah manages to provide them and us with an even more powerful image—the transformation that followed their fall. May that image be a balm for us in these days. Next Sunday we will celebrate not only our Feast of Name, Christ the King. We will also gather our pledges for the coming year. Prayerfully consider how you will respond to the challenge to Live Generously. As you think about what you will commit for 2017, remember this—we do not give: • to meet a budget • to pay a staff • to save this parish or its buildings.
We give because giving is a deeply spiritual and moral matter. We give:
• to respond to God’s call • to share in God’s mission with glad, generous and grateful hearts. • to transform lives in our community
I look forward to sharing in that blessing with you next week. Read more about Living Generously in this week’s Insert and in the fresh set of Stewardship Notes on page 4. And as you prepare for worship, reflect upon these words of Teresa of Avila: Let nothing disturb thee; let nothing dismay thee: all things pass; God never changes. Patience attains all that it strives for . . . he who has God finds he lacks nothing: God alone suffices
I am glad you are here today. Faithfully,
The Very Reverend Joan Pritcher Your Dean in the Interim On the Twenty Sixth Sunday after Pentecost

Transgender Day of Remembrance
The 18th annual Transgender Day of Remembrance will be observed in Louisville with a service at Caldwell Chapel, 1044 Alta Vista Road, located on the campus of Louisville Presbyterian Theological Seminary— November 20 at 7:00 p.m. The event began with a web project and a San Francisco candlelight vigil to remember Rita Hester, who was murdered on November 28, 1998; it has since grown internationally into a day to remember those who were killed due to antitransgender hatred and prejudice. Contact person is Deacon Gary England.
Morning Prayer
Monday – Wednesday, 9:00 – 9:15 in the Chapel Morning Prayer is a unique opportunity for service: to pray for ourselves, for one another, and for our world. It is a privilege that we share with Christians around the world—in parishes, in homes, and in religious orders. Join us on any of these 3 mornings for Morning Prayer or pray with us wherever you are.
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, Amelia Vickerstaff, Janelle Vickerstaff, and Dr. Mike Foster. Contact Dean Pritcher if you would like to help with class preparation.
we work New or Updated This Week — Community Breakfast
Next Community Breakfast Dec. 4
The next Community Breakfast is Sunday, December 4, 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.
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 works to solve critical community problems by holding systems accountable: to “do justice, love kindness (mercy), and walk humbly with God (Micah 6:8).” Many thanks to our CLOUT Ministry Team, Page Curry, Mildred Franks, John Kiesel, Linda Kiesel, Jim Monin, Mildred Payne for their fine leadership. The recent Justice Team Assembly narrowed down the community problem to four to send to the Community Problems Assembly (CPA) on Oct. 27. The final 4 are: health/mental health (incl. drug addiction), crime & criminal justice, education, and economic justice (jobs, wages, etc.). It is from those 4 categories that the CPA will be voting to pick the one for research & action in the coming year. Let the someone from the Ministry Team know if you’d like to be present on the 27th to cast another Cathedral vote for next year’s project. Prayerfully consider joining this important work.
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.

STEWARDSHIP NOTES
Living Generously
Worries about stewardship tend to focus on money. But stewardship is about mission. If we know: that the church is doing God’s mission, that it will truly transform our lives and our communities, that each of us is an integral part of that mission—heart, mind and body—and that the money will follow, then we will discover Stewardship is not:
• Fundraising • Paying the light bills, maintaining a building and a staff • Meeting the budget • Paying our fair share of the dues • Saving the church in order to pass on a legacy to our children Stewardship, instead is: • Sharing in God’s mission with a glad, generous and grateful heart • Transforming lives in our community • Prayerfully responding to God’s call • A deeply spiritual matter • Something that blesses the giver more than the receiver Stewardship is discipleship. It is a complete reorientation of our lives toward God, who calls us through Jesus Christ. Stewardship is everything we do after we say ‘We believe’
we listen New or Updated This Week — Coffee Hour Hosts

Office Hours
The Cathedral Office hours are Tuesday – Friday, 10:00 am – 1:00 pm., and the building is open from 9:00 am til 4:30 pm. However, note that if you have a pastoral care need at any time and cannot get through, the pastoral care line is always open. The number is: 502-632-3213..
Scan Your Bulletin and other Tech Notes
A QR code is posted at each entrance of the Nave. Scan it with your smartphone or other electronic device to download the Service Bulletin and Cathedral Matters into your device. To access the Cathedral’s Wi Fi signal when you are here, use the password ccc421425. And friend us on Facebook: Christ Church Cathedral (421 S. 2nd St., Louisville). Let us know if you have any questions
Chapter Nominations
Submit nominations for Chapter 2017 using the Nomination Forms at each entrance and at the office table. Place completed forms in the Offering Plate or give it to Frazier Marsh or the Dean. The Nominating Committee, comprised of Chapter members who are rotating off in January, will consider all names as they carefully, prayerfully form the ballot. Election for Chapter 2017 will take place at Annual Meeting, after 10:30 worship on January 29. Candidates for election must be Cathedral members in good standing— which means they are regular in attendance, faithful in ministry and givers of record. 6
Something New Beginning with this Year’s Chapter Election
Cathedral by-laws have stated that 1.5 candidates must stand for every open position (i.e., 6 persons for 4 open positions). Chapter has amended the by-laws (by unanimous vote in 2 regular Chapter meetings) in a way that is becoming increasingly common in large and/ or complex congregations. By-laws now state that 1 – 1.5 candidates must stand for every open position (i.e., 4 – 6 persons for 4 open positions). We did this for several reasons. Often in the last few years, we have actually had only 1 candidate per open position; this amendment allows for what we have already been doing. The possibility of having fewer than 1.5 candidate per position will help newer, lesser-known members of the community to take leadership positions. And it may help us to find the best balance of ministry for Chapter. Let me know your questions and comments.
RE-ENROLL in the Kroger Community Rewards program
The new Kroger Community Rewards program requires us to re-enroll each year. If you have not re-enrolled since August, 2016, please do so now.

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!
