We’re glad you’re here!

We’d love to get to know you and help you get to know us. Saint Michael is a vibrant group of people choosing to live life as a community: pursuing Jesus, caring for one another, and serving those in need.

While you’re here with us today, we’d love for you to do two things:

1.

Fill out a Welcome Card. They’re in the pew back in front of you, or use the QR code to use the quick, mobile-friendly “Get in Touch” form.

2. Stop by the South entrance. You’ll see greeters wearing “Welcome” ribbons/lanyards and they can answer questions about a worship service, formation class, or childcare.

We look forward to seeing you soon!

FROM THE RECTOR FORMATION & SPECIAL EVENTS

Welcome! I’m very glad you’ve joined us for worship today. Please take a moment to fill out the welcome card, either physically or digitally, that can be found in the pew back or on a table nearby. Our Welcome Team members are in the hallways today to help you with anything you need.

This fall, I hope you are plugging in to our wonderful midweek offerings, including weekday meditations, Bible studies, and service opportunities. Worshiping, learning, and giving together helps us grow closer to who God created us to be, and you’re part of that work. May God bless you today and every day, and I hope to see you again very soon!

Symphonie VIII in B Major, in six movements, is a monumental work with a performance time of about an hour. It was, at that time, the largest work of organ music ever composed. In this symphony, which at the time of composition Widor considered to be his last, he pushed organ technique to the limit and exhausted the tonal possibilities of the instrument. The graceful Moderato utilizes some interesting orchestral effects, such as the pedal pizzicati (similar to cellos and double basses in orchestral music).

The Collect of the Day (standing)

Celebrant The Lord be with you. People And with thy spirit. Celebrant Let us pray.

Almighty and merciful God, of whose only gift it cometh that thy faithful people do unto thee true and laudable service: Grant, we beseech thee, that we may run without stumbling to obtain thy heavenly promises; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

The First Lesson Isaiah 1:10-18 (seated)

Hear the word of the LORD, you rulers of Sodom! Listen to the teaching of our God, you people of Gomorrah! What to me is the multitude of your sacrifices? says the LORD; I have had enough of burnt offerings of rams and the fat of fed beasts; I do not delight in the blood of bulls, or of lambs, or of goats. When you come to appear before me, who asked this from your hand? Trample my courts no more; bringing offerings is futile; incense is an abomination to me. New moon and sabbath and calling of convocation-I cannot endure solemn assemblies with iniquity. Your new moons and your appointed festivals my soul hates; they have become a burden to me, I am weary of bearing them. When you stretch out your hands, I will hide my eyes from you; even though you make many prayers, I will not listen; your

hands are full of blood. Wash yourselves; make yourselves clean; remove the evil of your doings from before my eyes; cease to do evil, learn to do good; seek justice, rescue the oppressed, defend the orphan, plead for the widow. Come now, let us argue it out, says the LORD: though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be like snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall become like wool.

The Psalm 32:1-8 (seated, chanted by the choir) Samuel Wesley

Happy are they whose transgressions are forgiven, * and whose sin is put away!

Happy are they to whom the LORD imputes no guilt, * and in whose spirit there is no guile!

While I held my tongue, my bones withered away, * because of my groaning all day long.

For your hand was heavy upon me day and night; * my moisture was dried up as in the heat of summer. Then I acknowledged my sin to you, * and did not conceal my guilt.

I said, "I will confess my transgressions to the LORD.” * Then you forgave me the guilt of my sin. Therefore all the faithful will make their prayers to you in time of trouble; * when the great waters overflow, they shall not reach them. You are my hiding-place; you preserve me from trouble; * you surround me with shouts of deliverance.

The Second Lesson 2 Thessalonians 1:1-4, 11-12 (seated)

Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy, to the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. We must always give thanks to God for you, brothers and sisters, as is right, because your faith is growing abundant ly, and the love of everyone of you for one another is increasing. Therefore we ourselves boast of you among the churches of God for your steadfast ness and faith during all your persecutions and the afflictions that you are enduring. … To this end we always pray for you, asking that our God will

make you worthy of his call and will fulfill by his power every good resolve and work of faith, so that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.

The Gospel Luke 19:1-10 (standing)

Gospeler The Holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to Luke. People Glory be to thee, O Lord.

Jesus entered Jericho and was passing through it. A man was there named Zacchaeus; he was a chief tax collector and was rich. He was trying to see who Jesus was, but on account of the crowd he could not, because he was short in stature. So he ran ahead and climbed a sycamore tree to see him, because he was going to pass that way. When Jesus came to the place, he looked up and said to him, “Zacchaeus, hurry and come down; for I must stay at your house today.” So he hurried down and was happy to welcome him. All who saw it began to grumble and said, “He has gone to be the guest of one who is a sinner.” Zacchaeus stood there and said to the Lord, “Look, half of my possessions, Lord, I will give to the poor; and if I have de frauded anyone of anything, I will pay back four times as much.” Then Jesus said to him, “Today salvation has come to this house, because he too is a son of Abraham. For the Son of Man came to seek out and to save the lost.”

The Sermon (seated)

The Nicene Creed (standing)

The Rev. Dr. Christopher D. Girata

All We believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all that is, seen and unseen. We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, eternally begotten of the Father, God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, of one Being with the Father. Through him all things were made. For us and for our salvation he came down from heaven: by the power of the Holy Spirit

he became incarnate from the Virgin Mary, and was made man.

For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate; he suffered death and was buried. On the third day he rose again in accordance with the Scriptures; he ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and his kingdom will have no end.

We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son. With the Father and the Son he is worshiped and glorified. He has spoken through the Prophets. We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church. We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins. We look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen.

O thou who camest from above Philip Lawson

O thou who camest from above, the pure celestial fire to impart, Kindle a flame of sacred love on the altar of my heart. There let it for thy glory burn with inextinguishable blaze, And trembling to its source return, in humble prayer and fervent praise. Jesus, confirm my heart’s desire to work and speak and think for thee; Still let me guard the holy fire, and stir up thy gift in me: Ready for all thy perfect will, my acts of faits and love repeat, Till death thy endless mercies seal, and make my sacrifice complete. Amen.

Sanctus and Benedictus (standing, sung by all) Healey Willan Hymn S 114

All baptized persons of any age regardless of their denomination and tradition are welcome to share in the banquet of the Lord’s Supper.

Here a Proper Preface is sung or said on all Sundays, and on other occasions as appointed.

Hymn continues on the next page

At the following words concerning the bread, the Celebrant is to hold it, or lay a hand upon it; and at the words concerning the cup, to hold or place a hand upon the cup and any other vessel containing wine to be consecrated.

Please kneel as you are able

All glory be to thee, O Lord our God, for that thou didst create heaven and earth, and didst make us in thine own image; and, of thy tender mercy, didst give thine only Son Jesus Christ to take our nature upon him, and to suffer death upon the cross for our redemption. He made there a full and perfect sacrifice for the whole world; and did institute, and in his holy Gospel command us to continue, a perpetual memory of that his precious death and sacrifice, until his coming again.

For in the night in which he was betrayed, he took bread; and when he had given thanks to thee, he broke it, and gave it to his disciples, saying, “Take, eat, this is my Body, which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of me.”

Likewise, after supper, he took the cup; and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, saying, “Drink this, all of you; for this is my Blood of the New Covenant, which is shed for you, and for many, for the remission of sins. Do this, as oft as ye shall drink it, in remembrance of me.”

Wherefore, O Lord and heavenly Father, we thy people do celebrate and make, with these thy holy gifts which we now offer unto thee, the memorial thy Son hath commanded us to make; having in remembrance his blessed passion and precious death, his mighty resurrection and glorious ascension; and looking for his coming again with power and great glory.

And we most humbly beseech thee, O merciful Father, to hear us, and, with thy Word and Holy Spirit, to bless and sanctify these gifts of bread and wine, that they may be unto us the Body and Blood of thy dearly-beloved Son Jesus Christ.

And we earnestly desire thy fatherly goodness to accept this our sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving, whereby we offer and present unto thee, O Lord, our selves, our souls and bodies. Grant, we beseech thee, that all who partake of this Holy Communion may worthily receive the most precious Body and Blood of thy Son Jesus Christ, and be filled with thy grace and heavenly benediction; and also that we and all thy whole Church may be made one body with him, that he may dwell in us, and we in him; through the same Jesus Christ our Lord;

By whom, and with whom, and in whom, in the unity of the Holy Ghost all honor and glory be unto thee, O Father Almighty, world without end. AMEN.

And now, as our Savior Christ has taught us, we are bold to say,

All Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen.

The Post-Communion Prayer (kneeling, spoken by all)

Almighty and everliving God, we most heartily thank thee for that thou dost feed us, in these holy mysteries, with the spiritual food of the most precious Body and Blood of thy Son our Savior Jesus Christ; and dost assure us thereby of thy favor and goodness towards us; and that we are very members incorporate in the mystical body of thy Son, the blessed company of all faithful people; and are also heirs, through hope, of thy everlasting kingdom. And we humbly beseech thee, O heavenly Father, so to assist us with thy grace, that we may continue in that holy fellowship, and do all such good works as thou hast prepared for us to walk in; through Jesus Christ our Lord, to whom with thee and the Holy Ghost, be all honor and glory, world without end.

READING THE BIBLE FOR ALL ITS WORTH Led by Dr. Tim Smith Sundays, Today – November 20 10 a.m. in Saint Michael Chapel

The Bible was written over the course of 1500 years by more than 30 different authors, in nine different genres, on three different continents, each one with a unique time, place, and context. If that’s not enough, understanding Scripture is complicated all the more by the fact that we are separated from the text through time, culture, and worldview. Most of us have never been taught how to read and interpret the Bible in its original context. The goal of this class is to get you excited and re-engaged in discovering God’s Word anew by learning the original meaning of a text. To do that, we’ll teach you some frameworks, and share tools and resources that will forever change how you engage and read God’s Word.

OUTRAGEOUS PRAYERS OF THE BIBLE

Led by Dr. Elizabeth Lang Sundays, Today – November 20 10 a.m. in the Coke Room

Some faithful Christians are reluctant to pray because they are concerned that they are not doing it right, especially if they are not using a prayerbook. Elizabeth Lang will lead us in examining a variety of prayers in the Bible so that we can discover what speaks to each of us about prayer. There are many questions and answers that come from exploring outrageous prayers in the Bible. These may free us to pray with honesty and faith.
