Holy Eucharist: Rite II The Presentation of Our Lord
February 2, 2020
Breakfast 9:00am Eucharist 10:00am
Welcome to Trinity Episcopal Church Good morning and “welcome home” to Trinity! Whether you are new to our community or have found yourself coming back again and again, we want you to know you are both welcome and wanted here among us. For some, church is as comfortable and familiar as a good pair of jeans, or like coming back to your childhood home (if it is one filled with good memories). For others, church might be like visiting a foreign country where you experience unfamiliar language or customs. And then, sadly, for some, church has become equated with feelings of hurt, shame or rejection. We get all of that and believe church can be different. We are a diverse community of seekers, believers, and doubters held together by the hope that together we are better, kinder, and more courageous when we stand side by side and face into the challenges of our lives and in the world together. We challenge the practices of our tradition that have at times kept others out and instead embrace Jesus’ mandate to welcome all, no exceptions, as a core value. And, we get that if people are brave enough to walk through the doors of a big gothic-looking church in downtown Toledo we better be serious about being explicitly progressive, inclusive and creative in all we say and do. We love our Episcopal tradition, AND we love people from all walks of life even more! It is our hope and prayer that together we will navigate our way through each gathering, worship service, opportunity to serve, class, meal and social time together with humility, grace and laughter all infused with radical hospitality. So thank you for being here today; for trusting the yearning that brought you through those ancient doors. May we all find our way into the heart of God’s love as we make room for each other at the Table of love set for us week after week. Welcome Home! May you never forget you are loved, Lisa Tucker-Gray
Notes about Trinity at Epiphany SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 2020
THE PRESENTATION OF OUR LORD
The Presentation of Our Lord is a feast day celebrated on Feb. 2, also known as Candlemas and the Feast of the Purification. It commemorates the presentation of Jesus and the purification of Mary in the Jerusalem Temple forty days after Jesus' birth, in accordance with the requirements of Jewish law (Lv 12:2-8). The feast is celebrated about forty days after Christmas. According to the account of Lk 2:22-39, the presentation of Jesus was also the occasion of the meeting of Jesus with Simeon and Anna. Simeon's prayer of blessing is the basis for the canticle Nunc dimittis (see BCP, p. 120). Celebration of the feast dates from the fourth century in Jerusalem. It was introduced in Rome in the seventh century, where it included a procession with candles and the singing of the Nunc dimittis. The celebration came to include the lighting and blessing of candles which were carried in procession. ("An Episcopal Dictionary of the Church, A User Friendly Reference for Episcopalians")

People:
(From Prayers for an Inclusive Church)
The Lord be with you. And also with you. God of Anna and Simeon, whose law makes known the gift of life, whose love exposes our hardness of heart: by your Spirit, may we receive your faithful word to Gentile and to Jew and know your reconciling presence offered for all the world; through Jesus Christ, the Light and the Glory of God. Amen.
(Please be seated for the Lessons.)
The First Lesson Reader:
Malachi 3:1-4
A reading from Malachi
Thus says the Lord, See, I am sending my messenger to prepare the way before me, and the Lord whom you seek will suddenly come to his temple. The messenger of the covenant in whom you delight-- indeed, he is coming, says the Lord of hosts. But who can endure the day of his coming, and who can stand when he appears? For he is like a refiner's fire and like fullers' soap; he will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver, and he will purify the descendants of Levi and refine them like gold and silver, until they present offerings to the Lord in righteousness. Then the offering of Judah and Jerusalem will be pleasing to the Lord as in the days of old and as in former years.
Reader: People:
Psalm
Hear what the Spirit is saying to God’s People. Thanks be to God.
Psalm 24: 7-10
(From Episcopal Eucharistic Lectionary)
The Psalm will be chanted responsively by half verse. The cantor will begin, and the congregation will respond. TONE
Lift up your heads, O gates; lift them high, O ever- / lasting doors; and the King of glory / shall come in. "Who is this King of glory? The LORD, strong and / mighty, the LORD, mighty / in battle." Lift up your heads, O gates; lift them high, O ever- / lasting doors; and the King of glory / shall come in. "Who is he, this King of / glory? The LORD of hosts, he is the / King of glory." 4
The second Lesson Reader:
Hebrews 2:14-18
A reading from Hebrews
Since God's children share flesh and blood, Jesus himself likewise shared the same things, so that through death he might destroy the one who has the power of death, that is, the devil, and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by the fear of death. For it is clear that he did not come to help angels, but the descendants of Abraham. Therefore he had to become like his brothers and sisters in every respect, so that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in the service of God, to make a sacrifice of atonement for the sins of the people. Because he himself was tested by what he suffered, he is able to help those who are being tested.
Reader: People:
The Word of the Lord. Thanks be to God.

Somewhere Only We Know
Keane
The congregation is invited to join. I walked across an empty land I knew the pathway like the back of my hand I felt the earth beneath my feet Sat by the river, and it made me complete Oh, simple thing, where have you gone? I'm getting tired, I need something to rely on So tell me when, you’re gunna let me in I’m getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
The Gospel
And if you have a minute, why don’t we go Talk about it somewhere we should all know This could be an end or a beginning So why don’t we go, Somewhere we should all know.
Luke 2:22-40
Celebrant: The Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to Luke. People: Glory to you, Lord Christ. When the time came for their purification according to the law of Moses, the parents of Jesus brought him up to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord (as it is written in the law of the Lord, "Every firstborn male shall be designated as holy to the Lord"), and they offered a sacrifice according to what is stated in the law of the Lord, "a pair of turtledoves or two young pigeons." Now there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon; this man was righteous and devout, looking forward to the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit rested on him. It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not see death before he had seen the Lord's Messiah. Guided by the Spirit, Simeon came into the temple; and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him what was customary under the law, Simeon took him in his arms and praised God, saying, (Gospel Continues…

)
"Master, now you are dismissing your servant in peace, according to your word; for my eyes have seen your salvation, which you have prepared in the presence of all peoples, a light for revelation to the Gentiles and for glory to your people Israel." And the child's father and mother were amazed at what was being said about him. Then Simeon blessed them and said to his mother Mary, "This child is destined for the falling and the rising of many in Israel, and to be a sign that will be opposed so that the inner thoughts of many will be revealed-- and a sword will pierce your own soul too." There was also a prophet, Anna the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher. She was of a great age, having lived with her husband seven years after her marriage, then as a widow to the age of eighty-four. She never left the temple but worshiped there with fasting and prayer night and day. At that moment she came, and began to praise God and to speak about the child to all who were looking for the redemption of Jerusalem. When they had finished everything required by the law of the Lord, they returned to Galilee, to their own town of Nazareth. The child grew and became strong, filled with wisdom; and the favor of God was upon him.
Celebrant: People:
The Gospel of the Lord. Praise to You, Lord Christ.
Sermon
The Rev. Dr. Lisa Tucker-Gray
Nicene Creed
(From Book of Common Prayer, p. 358)
(Please stand as you are able.) 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. 6
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.
PRAYERS OF THE PEOPLE
(From Book of Common Prayer, Form 3, p. 387)
(Please stand as you are able.)
Intercessor: God, we pray for your holy Catholic Church; People: that we may be one. Intercessor: Grant that every member of the Church may truly and humbly serve you; People: That your Name may be glorified by all people. Intercessor: We pray for all bishops, priests, and deacons; People: That they may be faithful ministers of your Word and Sacraments. Intercessor: We pray for all who govern and hold authority in the nations of the world; People: That there may be justice and peace on the earth. Intercessor: Give us grace to do your will in all that we undertake; People: That our works may find favor in your sight. Intercessor: Have compassion on those who suffer from any grief or trouble, especially those we name on our Trinity Prayer List (names to be offered); People: That they may be delivered from their distress.
Intercessor: Give to the departed eternal rest. People: Let light perpetual shine upon them. Intercessor: We praise you for your saints who have entered into joy; People: May we also come to share in your heavenly kingdom.
Celebrant: Let us pray for our own needs and those of others. Celebrant concludes with a closing collect.

THE CONFESSION OF SIN & ABSOLUTION Celebrant:
(From Book of Common Prayer, p. 360)
Let us confess our sins against God and our neighbor.
Celebrant and People: Most merciful God, we confess that we have sinned against you in thought, word, and deed, by what we have done, and by what we have left undone. We have not loved you with our whole heart; we have not loved our neighbors as ourselves. We are truly sorry and we humbly repent. For the sake of your Son Jesus Christ, have mercy on us and forgive us; that we may delight in your will, and walk in your ways, to the glory of your Name. Amen.
Celebrant: Almighty God have mercy on you, forgive you all your sins through our Lord Jesus People:
Christ, strengthen you in all goodness, and by the power of the Holy Spirit keep you in eternal life. Amen.
THE PEACE Celebrant: People:
The peace of the Lord be always with you. And also with you.

(From Book of Common Prayer, Prayer B, p. 367)
The Lord be with you. And also with you. Lift up your hearts. We lift them to the Lord. Let us give thanks to the Lord our God. It is right to give our thanks and praise.
Celebrant: It is right, and a good and joyful thing, always and everywhere to give thanks to you, Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth. For you are the source of light and life, you made us in your image, and called us to new life in Jesus Christ our Lord. Therefore we praise you, joining our voices with Angels and Archangels and with all the company of heaven, who for ever sing this hymn to proclaim the glory of your Name:

Celebrant continues We give thanks to you, O God, for the goodness and love which you have made known to us in creation; in the calling of Israel to be your people; in your Word spoken through the prophets; and above all in the Word made flesh, Jesus, your Son. For in these last days you sent him to be incarnate from the Virgin Mary, to be the Savior and Redeemer of the world. In him, you have delivered us from evil, and made us worthy to stand before you. In him, you have brought us out of error into truth, out of sin into righteousness, out of death into life. On the night before he died for us, our Lord Jesus Christ took bread; and when he had given thanks to you, he broke it, and gave it to his disciples, and said, "Take, eat: This is my Body, which is given for you. Do this for the remembrance of me." After supper he took the cup of wine; and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, and said, "Drink this, all of you: This is my Blood of the new Covenant, which is shed for you and for many for the forgiveness of sins. Whenever you drink it, do this for the remembrance of me." Therefore, according to his command, O Father,
Celebrant and People We remember his death. We proclaim his resurrection. We await his coming in glory.
The Celebrant continues And we offer our sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving to you, O Lord of all; presenting to you, from your creation, this bread and this wine. We pray you, gracious God, to send your Holy Spirit upon these gifts that they may be the Sacrament of the Body of Christ and his Blood of the new Covenant. Unite us to your Son in his sacrifice, that we may be acceptable through him, being sanctified by the Holy Spirit. In the fullness of time, put all things in subjection under your Christ, and bring us to that heavenly country where, with all your saints, we may enter the everlasting heritage of your sons and daughters; through Jesus Christ our Lord, the firstborn of all creation, the head of the Church, and the author of our salvation. By him, and with him, and in him, in the unity of the Holy Spirit all honor and glory is yours, Almighty Father, now and for ever. AMEN.

The Lord’s Prayer Celebrant:
(From Book of Common Prayer, p. 364)
And now, as our Savior Christ has taught us, we are bold to say:
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.

Trinity Lenten Book Discussion:
The Time is Now: A Call to Uncommon Courage This Lent we will be focusing on the wise, compelling & compassionate work and life of Joan Chittister. Join us on February 23 for a brief introduction to Sister Joan immediately following our worship service. Teri Bays will perform her one-woman play, Joan Chittister: Her story, my story, our story, on March 1 in our Sanctuary. And each Wednesday in Lent, 3/4, 3/11, 3/18, & 3/25, we will gather at noon and 6:00pm to study her book, The Time is
Now: A Call to Uncommon Courage.
Pairing scriptural insights with stirring narratives of the truth-tellers that came before us, Joan Chittister offers a compelling vision for readers to combat complacency and to propel ourselves toward creating a world of justice, freedom, peace, and empowerment. For the weary, the cranky, and the fearful, Sister Joan's energizing message invites us to participate in a vision for a world greater than the one we find ourselves in today. This is spirituality in action, this is practical and powerful activism for our times.
Joan Chittister joined the Benedictine Sisters of Erie at the age of 16 and has spent over 60 years charting the rigorous and adventuresome path of Christianity. With bravado, incredible energy, and abundant spiritual insights she has challenged all of us to combine contemplative practices with social action. Chittister is a major voice and committed activist for the rights of women and poor people. She is the Executive Director of Benetvision, a center for contemporary spirituality, and the co-chair for the Global Peace Initiative of Women. Chittister is the author of over 50 books and has appeared on Oprah's Super Soul Sunday, On Being with Krista Tippett, and countless other media outlets.
The Time Is Now arose out of Chittister's concerns about the selfishness, power plays, narcissism, violence, lies, and prejudice of politicians and citizens who have seized the moment to take America on what they perceive to be a path of glory. To counter those impulses, Chittister turns to the prophets, who in their times, sought to usher in a brand new day of justice, freedom, peace, and transformation. Following is a list of opportunities for you to join us! Sunday, February 23 Introduction to Joan Chittister; her life and work 11:15am (My Brother’s Place) Sunday, March 1 4:00pm (Sanctuary)
