12 August 2012, The Sixth Sunday after Trinity The Collect Merciful God, You have prepared for those who love You such good things as pass our understanding: pour into our hearts such love towards You, that we, loving You in all things and above all things, may obtain Your promises, which exceed all that we can desire; through Jesus Christ Your Son our Lord, Who is alive and reigns with You, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen. 1 Kings Chapter 19 verses 4 to 8 Elijah went a day’s journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a solitary broom tree. He asked that he might die: ‘It is enough; now, O Lord, take away my life, for I am no better than my ancestors.’ Then he lay down under the broom tree and fell asleep. Suddenly an angel touched him and said to him, ‘Get up and eat.’ He looked, and there at his head was a cake baked on hot stones, and a jar of water. He ate and drank, and lay down again. The angel of The Lord came a second time, touched him, and said, ‘Get up and eat, otherwise the journey will be too much for you.’ He got up, and ate and drank; then he went in the strength of that food forty days and forty nights to Horeb the mount of God. Ephesians Chapter 4 v 25-Chapter 5 v 2 Putting away falsehood, let all of us speak the truth to our neighbours, for we are members of one another. Be angry but do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger, and do not make room for the devil. Thieves must give up stealing; rather let them labour and work honestly with their own hands, so as to have something to share with the needy. Let no evil talk come out of your mouths, but only what is useful for building up, as there is need, so that your words may give grace to those who hear. And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with Which you were marked with a seal for the day of redemption. Put away from you all bitterness and wrath and anger
and wrangling and slander, together with all malice, and be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ has forgiven you. Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children, and live in love, as Christ loved us and gave Himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God. St John Chapter 6 verses 35, then 41 to 51 Jesus said to the crowd, ‘I am the bread of life. Who-ever comes to Me will never be hungry, and whoever believes in Me will never be thirsty.’ Then the Jews began to complain about Him because He said, ‘I am the bread that came down from heaven.’ They were saying, ‘Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, Whose father and mother we know? How can He now say, “I have come down from heaven”?’ Jesus answered them, ‘Do not complain among yourselves. No one can come to Me unless drawn by The Father Who sent Me; and I will raise that person up on the last day. It is written in the prophets, “And they shall all be taught by God.” Everyone who has heard and learned from The Father comes to Me. Not that anyone has seen The Father except The One Who is from God; He has seen The Father. Very truly, I tell you, whoever believes has eternal life. I am the bread of life. Your ancestors ate the manna in the wilderness, and they died. This is the bread that comes down from heaven, so that one may eat of it and not die. I am the living bread that came down from heaven. Whoever eats of this bread will live for ever; and the bread that I will give for the life of the world is My flesh.’ Post Communion Prayer God of our pilgrimage, You have led us to the living water: refresh and sustain us as we go forward on our journey: in the Name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. © The Archbishops' Council 2000
