THE COLLECT AND READINGS THE COLLECT 0 God our defender, storms rage about us and cause us to be afraid. Rescue your people from despair, deliver your sons and daughters from fear, and preserve us all from unbelief; through your Son , Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and ever. Amen. THE LESSON A Reading from the Word of God written in the Book of Job Chapter 38 beginning at the 1st verse Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind: "Who is this that darkens counsel by words without knowledge? Gird up your loins like a man, I will question you, and you shall declare to me. "Where were you when I laid the foundation of the earth? Tell me, if you have understanding. Who determined its measurements -- surely you know! Or who stretched the line upon it? On what were its bases sunk, or who laid its cornerstone, when the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy? "Or who shut in the sea with doors, when it burst forth from the womb; when I made clouds its garment, and thick darkness its swaddling band, and prescribed bounds for it, and set bars and doors, and said, `Thus far shall you come, and no farther, and here shall your proud waves be stayed'? "Have you commanded the morning since your days began, and caused the dawn to know its place, that it might take hold of the skirts of the earth, and the wicked be shaken out of it? It is changed like clay under the seal, and it is dyed like a
!3
garment. From the wicked their light is withheld, and their uplifted arm is broken. "Have you entered into the springs of the sea, or walked in the recesses of the deep? Have the gates of death been revealed to you, or have you seen the gates of deep darkness? Have you comprehended the expanse of the earth? Declare, if you know all this.� Reader:

Thanks be to God.
PSALM 107
Confitemini Domino(1-3,23-32)
1 Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good,* and his mercy endures for ever. 2 Let all those whom the Lord has redeemed proclaim *that he redeemed them from the hand of the foe. 3 He gathered them out of the lands; *from the east and from the west,from the north and from the south. 23 Some went down to the sea in ships *and plied their trade in deep waters; 24 They beheld the works of the Lord *and his wonders in the deep. 25 Then he spoke, and a stormy wind arose, *. which tossed high the waves of the sea. 26 They mounted up to the heavens and fell back to the depths; *their hearts melted because. of their peril. 27 They reeled and staggered like drunkards * and were at their wits’ end. 28 Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble, *and he delivered them from their distress. 29 He stilled the storm to a whisper * and. quieted the waves of the sea.

30 Then were they glad because of the calm, * and he brought them to the harbor they were bound for. 31 Let them give thanks to the Lord for his mercy *and the wonders he does for his children. 32 Let them exalt him in the congregation of the people * and praise him in the council of the elders. Glory to the Father, and to the Son;*and to the Holy Spirit; As it was in the beginning is now:*and shall be forever. Amen.
THE EPISTLE A Reading from the Word of God written in the Second Letter to the Corinthians Chapter 5 beginning at the 14th verse. The love of Christ controls us, because we are convinced that one has died for all; therefore all have died. And he died for all, that those who live might live no longer for themselves but for him who for their sake died and was raised. From now on, therefore, we regard no one from a human point of view; even though we once regarded Christ from a human point of view, we regard him thus no longer. Therefore, if any one is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has passed away, behold, the new has come. All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave us the ministry of reconciliation; that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation. So we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us. We beseech you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.

THE HOLY GOSPEL The Lord be with you. And also with you. A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Mark Glory to Christ our Saviour. O n t h a t d a y, w h e n evening had come, Jesus said to his disciples, "Let us go across to the other side." And leaving the crowd, they took him with them in the boat, just as he was. And other boats were with him. And a great storm of wind arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so that the boat was already filling. But he was in the stern, asleep on the cushion; and they woke him and said to him, "Teacher, do you not care if we perish?" And he awoke and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, "Peace! Be still!" And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm. He said to them, "Why are you afraid? Have you no faith?" And they were filled with awe, and said to one another, "Who then is this, that even wind and sea obey him?" The Gospel of Christ Praise to Christ our Lord.

From the Rector’s Notebook Greetings: “A Taste of Summer” Our weekend festival “A Taste of Summer” will be held this coming weekend. It will be held under the patronage of Senator, Sir Trevor Carmichael, QC. What eventually emerged as “A Taste of Summer” had its genesis in a discussion among two persons to have a mid summer concert. Eventually the notion of floral decorations were added and then the decision to add a Tea refreshment and then the idea of wine and cheese. While retaining the initial concert decision, it was determined that organ music would add character to the event, since we as Anglican have a strong musical tradition. It was determined that the festival would be an excellent way of celebrating 175 years of ministry in this pastoral and liturgical ministry in this part of God’s vineyard. This two day event will see the coming together of various crafts and skills. It will essentially be a flower festival. As persons come into the church to view the floral decorations throughout the entire church they will be treated to background music on the organ by some of our local organists. Here within the architecture of the church building we celebrate the very depth and breath of God

almighty himself symbolized in the beauty of aesthetics which is communicated in the beauty of creation and creativity. Professor Kevin Irwin tells us in his book Context and Text: Method in Liturgical Theology, “that this self communication is accomplished through aesthetically pleasing and beautiful liturgical arts fits the anthropological foundation for and inherent framework of Christian worship. We fulfill that deep longing to to give thanks for the beauty of the earth, for the beauty of each hour, for every tree and flower. (Hymn 711 CPWI Hymnal) In other words as we participate in the festival of flowers and music we are able to catch a glimpse of the God who in Christ would stop to notice the lilies of the field (Matthew 6:28). In our appreciation for this beauty we combine craftsman’s art and music's measure in a way that cannot be soured by human ego or materialism; but that takes us to realms on high. May we enjoy the promise of the wonderful upcoming weekend and may God’s grace rest with us as we welcome visitors to our St. David’s Church. Your friend and priest, Noel A. Burke, MA, (The Rev’d Canon) Rector
