The LessonsThe people sit.

The First Lesson Acts 10:44-48While Peter was still speaking, the Holy Spirit fell upon all who heard the word. Thecircumcised believers who had come with Peter were astounded that the gift of the HolySpirit had been poured out even on the Gentiles, for they heard them speaking in

tongues and extolling God. Then Peter said, "Can anyone withhold the water forbaptizing these people who have received the Holy Spirit just as we have?" So he

Reader The Word of the Lord.

Psalm 98 BCP 727Sung by all

1

Sing to the LORD a new song, *for he has done marvelous things.2

With his right hand and his holy arm *has he won for himself the victory.

3

The LORD has made known his victory; *

his righteousness has he openly shown in the sight of the nations.4

He remembers his mercy and faithfulness tothe house of Israel, *and all the ends of the earth have seen the victory of our God.

5

Shout with joy to the LORD, all you lands; *lift up your voice, rejoice, and sing.6

Sing to the LORD with the harp, *with the harp and the voice of song.

7

With trumpets and the sound of the horn *

shout with joy before the King, the LORD.

Let the sea make a noise and all that is in it, *the lands and those who dwell there-in.

9

Let the rivers clap their hands, *and let the hills ring out with joy before the LORD,when he comes to judge the earth.

10

In righteousness shall he judge the world *and the peoples with equity.

The Second Lesson 1 John 5:1-6Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, and everyone wholoves the parent loves the child. By this we know that we love the children of God,when we love God and obey his commandments. For the love of God is this, that weobey his commandments. And his commandments are not burdensome, for whatever is

born of God conquers the world. And this is the victory that conquers the world, ourfaith. Who is it that conquers the world but the one who believes that Jesus is the Son ofGod?

This is the one who came by water and blood, Jesus Christ, not with the water only butwith the water and the blood. And the Spirit is the one that testifies, for the Spirit is thetruth.

Reader The Word of the Lord.People Thanks be to God.

All stand.

And I appointed you to go and bear fruit, fruit that will last, so that theFather will give you whatever you ask him in my name. I am giving you these commandsso that you may love one another."

It is right, and a good and joyful thing, always and everywhere to give thanks to you,Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth.But chiefly are we bound to praise you for the glorious resurrection of your Son Jesus

Christ our Lord; for he is the true Paschal Lamb, who was sacrificed for us, and hastaken away the sin of the world. By his death he has destroyed death, and by his rising tolife again he has won for us everlasting life.

Holy, holy, holy Lord Sanctus S 125

days you sent him to be incarnate from the Virgin Mary, to be the Savior and Redeemerof the world. In him, you have delivered us from evil, and made us worthy to standbefore you. In him, you have brought us out of error into truth, out of sin intorighteousness, out of death into life.

On the night before he died for us, our Lord Jesus Christ took bread; and when he hadgiven thanks to you, he broke it, and gave it to his disciples, and said, Take, eat: This ismy 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 theremembrance of me.

Therefore, according to his command, O Father,

Celebrant and People

We await his coming in glory;The Celebrant continues

And we offer our sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving to you, O Lord of all; presentingto 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 bethe 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 theHoly Spirit. In the fullness of time, put all things in subjection under your Christ, andbring us to that heavenly country where, with all your saints, we may enter theeverlasting heritage of your sons and daughters; through Jesus Christ our Lord, thefirstborn of all creation, the head of the Church, and the author of our salvation.

yours, Almighty Father, now and for ever.
