A Reflection ‘Seven Sacred Teachings’—the shape of the Truth and Reconciliation logo “The logo for Canada’s Truth and Reconciliation Commission is a circle of seven orange flames.

The circle reflects the Circle of Life. In the Circle, we join together to share truth.

The flames sustain life in the Circle, and provide safety and sustenance. Most importantly, the flames shed light on what needs to be shared in the Circle—the experiences of those affected by Indian Residential Schools.

The seven flames that make up the circle represent the seven sacred teachings: love, respect, courage, honesty, wisdom, humility and truth. The Truth and Reconciliation Commission draws on each of those teachings in the work of truth-gathering, truth-telling, and reconciliation, and each TRC National Event is dedicated to one of them.

The British Columbia National Event is dedicated to the sacred teaching of honesty.”

- from p. 35 of the official program for the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s British Columbia National Event, 2013

The Liturgy of the Word OLD TESTAMENT READING Reader

Be seated

A reading from the Book of Isaiah.

To whom then will you compare me, or who is my equal? says the Holy One. Lift up your eyes on high and see: Who created these? He who brings out their host and numbers them, calling them all by name; because he is great in strength, mighty in power, not one is missing. Why do you say, O Jacob, and speak, O Israel, ‘My way is hidden from the LORD, and my right is disregarded by my God’? Have you not known?

Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He does not faint or grow weary; his understanding is unsearchable. He gives power to the faint, and strengthens the powerless. Even youths will faint and be weary, and the young will fall exhausted; but those who wait for the LORD shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint.

Isaiah 40:25-31

PSALM

A cantor sings the antiphon first; the people repeat it thereafter.

The law of the Lord is perfect and revives the soul; the testimony of the Lord is sure and gives wisdom to the innocent.

Who can tell how often he offends? Cleanse me from my secret faults. Antiphon Above all, keep your servant from presumptuous sins; let them not get dominion over me; then shall I be whole and sound, and innocent of a great offense.

Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, my strength and my redeemer. Antiphon Psalm 19:7, 12-14

EPISTLE READING Reader

A reading from the Letter of Paul to the Philippians.

Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, Rejoice. Let your gentleness be known to everyone. The Lord is near. Do not worry about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally, beloved, whatever is true, whatever is honourable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is pleasing, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence and if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. Keep on doing the things that you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, and the God of peace will be with you.

HOLY GOSPEL

All stand and turn to face the book of the Gospels

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through him, and without him not one thing came into being. What has come into being in him was life, and the life was the light of all people. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not overcome it. There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. He came as a witness to testify to the light, so that all might believe through him. He himself was not the light, but he came to testify to the light. The true light, which enlightens everyone, was coming into the world. He was in the world, and the world came into being through him; yet the world did not know him. He came to what was his own and his own people did not accept him. But to all who received him, who believed in his name, he gave power to become children of God, who were born, not of blood or of the will of the flesh or of the will of man, but of God. (Genuflect) And the Word became flesh and lived among us (Stand), and we have seen his glory, the glory as of a father’s only son, full of grace and truth. (John testified to him and cried out, ‘This was he of whom I said, “He who comes after me ranks ahead of me because he was before me.” ’) From his fullness we have all received, grace upon grace. The law indeed was given 10 | SUNG MASS

through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. No one has ever seen God. It is God the only Son, who is close to the Father’s heart, who has made him known.

Almighty God, Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Maker of all things and judge of all people: We acknowledge and confess our manifold sins and wickedness, Which we from time to time most grievously have committed, By thought, word, and deed, Against thy divine majesty.

We do earnestly repent, and are heartily sorry for these our misdoings.

Have mercy upon us, most merciful Father; For thy Son our Lord Jesus Christ’s sake, Forgive us all that is past; And grant that we may ever hereafter Serve and please thee In newness of life, To the honour and glory of thy name; Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

PRAYER OF CONSECRATION Celebrant

Kneel

All glory be to thee, O Lord our God, who 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; who, in the same night that he was betrayed, 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.

Alll

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.

We praise thee, we bless thee, we thank thee and we pray to thee, Lord our God. 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, ourselves, 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 Spirit all honour and glory be unto thee, O Father Almighty, world without end.

Formation on Sundays

THE OXFORD MOVEMENT The Oxford Movement of the 1830s demanded a rebirth of the life of the English Church. Its principal leaders argued for the historic and apostolic ministry; they emphasized the sacraments, particularly the Eucharist; they promoted social action and deep pastoral concern; they applied their formidable scholarship to translating the Greek and Latin fathers of the church and republishing the great English theologians and divines of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries.

Theirs was, above all, a call to holiness, a call that changed the course of the Church not for a time only; for theirs was a call that we still are hearing and obeying.

St. James’ News & Announcements NEXT SUNDAY AT ST. JAMES’:

BENEDICTINE GROUP MEETINGS

FEAST OF ST. MICHAEL AND ALL ANGELS

The St. James’ Benedictine Group has enjoyed monthly Tuesday evening meetings over the last nine years. Meetings have included Mass, prayer, spiritual discussions related to the Rule of St. Benedict, potluck supper and fellowship.

Over the last year, dwindling attendance led to some cancelled meetings, with the realization that a minimum of 8-10 committed participants are needed to keep monthly group meetings viable.

Any parish member interested in re-starting monthly Benedictine group meetings and willing to commit to attend 8 monthly weekday evening meetings is invited to contact Brian Rocksborough-Smith at brianrs47@gmail.com.

Sunday, September 29, 6:30 pm.

Please join us for Low Mass at 8:30 am or High Mass at 10:30 am. followed by a potluck lunch.

NEXT SUNDAT AT ST.JAMES’: OUTREACH SUNDAY: Witness to the World After High Mass on September 29th, we will gather for lunch to acknowledge and celebrate the various forms of “outreach” at St. James’. In our parish, we are a “witness to the world” as we reach beyond ourselves, meeting the needs of others in Christian love.

Outreach is manifested in many ways - large and small, individually and by groups, locally to internationally and our goal is to recognize and celebrate them in total.

A short presentation during lunch will be followed by a “walk-about” to view display tables represented by various individuals and groups who undertake initiatives at or through St. James’. A light lunch will be provided. Questions regarding this event can be addressed to Doug Ibbott (doug1a@telus.net) or Kimberly McMillan. We look forward to seeing you then!

Outreach Committee ST. JAMES’ EMAIL BROADCASTS Would you like to receive personal email announcements about important upcoming events at St. James’?

St. James’ News & Announcements PARISH REVIEW (5) The Parish Review focuses on three questions: What are the essentials at St. James' which we commit to maintain? What are we being called to give up? What are we being called to initiate and/ or strengthen?

During our annual Parish leaders' Retreat in early September we upheld in prayer and discussed the draft recommendations from the Review - these have been available to all parishioners since late July. The key findings from the Summer retreat are now available in the Narthex, or from the Office upon request.

At the Parish Council (Sep. 28) all present will have an opportunity to be updated and to offer feedback in response to the draft recommendations. I will continue to interview leaders through October. Two days of prayer and fasting, one in October the other around Advent Sunday, will be offered to the Parish as an opportunity for us to commit the Parish Review to the guidance and direction of the Holy Spirit.

Any parishioner is welcome to be interviewed just ask me. Please support our season of Review by: - attending the Parish Council; - praying and reading over the draft recommendations; - participating in the two days of prayer and fasting.

Please speak to me, or any one of the Wardens, Trustees, or Clergy of the Parish for more information and help with participating in our season of Review at St. James'.

TREASURER’$ CORNER (2) September 2013 Another generous parish couple has come forward with a donation – this time to the Sanctuary Guild.

Alex and Mary-Ann Currie concluded, when sending their gift, “The liturgical life of the church would be significantly compromised were it not for the devoted ministry of the Sanctuary Guild members.”

Many thanks, and bless you both!
