Collect for the Twenty Second Sunday after Pentecost
The Word of God
Almighty and everlasting God, increase in us the gifts of faith, hope, and charity; and, that we may obtain what you promise, make us love what you command; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.

Then Job answered the LORD:
“I know that you can do all things, and that no purpose of yours can be thwarted.`Who is this that hides counsel without knowledge?’Therefore I have uttered what I did not understand, things too wonderful for me, which I did not know.`Hear, and I will speak; I will question you, and you declare to me.’I had heard of you by the hearing of the ear, but now my eye sees you;therefore I despise myself, and repent in dust and ashes.”
And the LORD restored the fortunes of Job when he had prayed for his friends; and the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before. Then there came to him all his brothers and sisters and all who had known him before, and they ate bread with him in his house; they showed him sympathy and comforted him for all the evil that the LORD had brought upon him; and each of them gave him a piece of money and a gold ring. The LORD blessed the latter days of Job more than his beginning; and he had fourteen thousand

sheep, six thousand camels, a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand donkeys. He also had seven sons and three daughters. He named the first Jemimah, the second Keziah, and the third Keren-happuch. In all the land there were no women so beautiful as Job’s daughters; and their father gave them an inheritance along with their brothers. After this Job lived one hundred and forty years, and saw his children, and his children’s children, four generations. And Job died, old and full of days.

The former priests were many in number, because they were prevented by death from continuing in office; but he holds his priesthood permanently, because he continues forever. Consequently he is able for all time to save those who approach God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them. For it was fitting that we should have such a high priest, holy, blameless,
Second Lesson Hebrews 7:23-28undefiled, separated from sinners, and exalted above the heavens. Unlike the other high priests, he has no need to offer sacrifices day after day, first for his own sins, and then for those of the people; this he did once for all when he offered himself. For the law appoints as high priests those who are subject to weakness, but the word of the oath, which came later than the law, appoints a Son who has been made perfect forever.

The Holy Gospel of our Lord, Jesus Christ, acording to Mark.Glory to you Lord Christ
Gospel Mark 10:46-52
Jesus and his disciples came to Jericho. As he and his disciples and a large crowd were leaving Jericho, Bartimaeus son of Timaeus, a blind beggar, was sitting by the roadside. When he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to shout out and say, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!” Many sternly ordered him to be quiet, but he cried out even more loudly, “Son of David, have mercy on me!” Jesus stood still and said, “Call
him here.” And they called the blind man, saying to him, “Take heart; get up, he is calling you.” So throwing off his cloak, he sprang up and came to Jesus. Then Jesus said to him, “What do you want me to do for you?” The blind man said to him, “My teacher, let me see again.” Jesus said to him, “Go; your faith has made you well.” Immediately he regained his sight and followed him on the way.

Holy Communion
Sometimes a light surprises the Christian while she sings;It is the Lord who rises with healing in His wings;When comforts are declining, He grants the soul againA season of clear shining, to cheer it after rain.In holy contemplation we sweetly then pursueThe theme of God’s salvation, and find it ever new;Set free from present sorrow, we cheerfully can say,Let the unknown tomorrow bring with it what it may.It can bring with it nothing but He will bear us through;Who gives the lilies clothing will clothe His people, too;Beneath the spreading heavens no creature but is fed;And He who feeds the ravens will give His children bread.Though vine nor fig tree neither their wanted fruit should bear,Though all the fields should wither, nor flocks nor herds be there;Yet, God the same abiding, His praise shall tune my voice;For, while in Him confiding, I cannot but rejoice.

Blessing
Almighty and everliving God, we thank you for feeding us with the spiritual food of the most precious Body and Blood of your Son our Savior Jesus Christ; and for assuring us in these holy mysteries that we are living members of the Body of your Son, and heirs of your eternal kingdom. And now, Father, send us out to do the work you have given us to do, to love and serve you as faithful witnesses of Christ our Lord. To him, to you, and to the Holy Spirit, be honor and glory, now and for ever. Amen.

My dear people of Christ Church Cathedral and our guestsWelcome our guests today, the Rev’d William Bippus and the Rev’d Edgar Wallace who will preach and preside at worship, 8:30 and 10:30. Frs. Bill and Edgar are not strangers to us, but we don’t get to see them every week. Enjoy today and take time to thank them at Coffee Hour.SACRED CONVERSATION begins next week for a 3-week set. We will look ahead to life as the Cathedral in 2016. We will talk about our mission, we will home in on our vision and we will create a strategy filter that can keep our ministry on track all year. SACRED CONVERSATION is an opportunity for everyone to speak, listen and learn. It is a great way to get to know one another and to grow stronger as a community of faith. It is also pleasant—you will enjoy the lunch and the time together. Join us for any or all of the Sundays November 1, 8 and 15, following 10:30 worship, in Bishops’ Hall over an extended Coffee Hour. We will be finished no later than 1:00. Sign Up Sheet is on the Bulletin Board. In addition, we have a busy few weeks ahead of us—you won’t want to miss any of these events:
• We are gathering participants for a Book Study on Sowing a Nonviolent City—read about on page 3 and join us. • Feast of Name and Stewardship In-Gathering with Bishop White will be on Sunday, November 22—read more about it on page 2.• Advent begins November 29 and will conclude with Feast of the Incarnation, December 24, Choral Eucharist at 7:00 pm and 11:00 pm, with a prelude staring thirty minutes before each service and December 25, spoken Eucharist, with carols, at Noon in the Chapel.
Our readings continue to remind us that life with and in Christ is not what the disciples have in mind. Consider these words of Marcus J. Borg and John Dominic Crossan:
What God did in Christ and what God thereby offers to everyone is an identity change, a character replacement, a Spirit transplant. ... It is what Paul calls a charis and we translate as a “grace.” It is a free gift offered without any prior conditions demanded by God or prior merits expected of us.
I am glad that you are here today.Faithfully,The Very Reverend Joan Pritcher Your Dean in the Interim The Twenty Second Sunday after Pentecost

CALENDAR Why do we pray, study, work, listen and build?Benedict, the father of Benedictine spirituality, suggested that our life is best balanced between prayer, study, and work. We have taken that challenge as the basis of our common life together at Christ Church Cathedral:
We pray (worship and the arts). We study (spiritual formation). We work (service to others).
In addition, we know that we are sustained by our life together, and that works best when we listen to one another. We also aim to build and maintain a structure that will support all of our ministry efforts. And so:
We listen (cathedral life and fellowship), We build (administration).
In Cathedral Matters, you will find information about ministry opportunities at the Cathedral which fit into all five of these areas. Under each of the five main categories you will see what is new to the listing for this week. You will notice that some paragraphs repeat weekly, so that our guests won’t miss any news.
You are urged to take your Cathedral Matters home with you so that you will have it for ready reference. Now, read about our ministry, think about how you would like to be involved...and jump right in!
