Collect For Mother's Day
HEAVENLY Father, we thank Thee for the gift of life, and for the privilege of being part of the
mystery of its creation. We thank You for the mothers who conceived and nursed us; who dressed,
fed, and worried about us. May they be blessed with the knowledge that what they did, they did not
only for us, but on Your behalf; being the hands, arms, hearts of God bringing blessings to His little
ones. Grant, O Lord, Thy blessings on those who will be mothers in the future. May they have godly,
loving husbands; may they delight in life and marriage, and may Thy Holy Spirit protect them in an
uncertain world where mothers and fathers will be more important than ever. Amen.
The First Lesson is written in the Thirteenth Chapter of The Acts of the Apostles, beginning at the
Fourteenth verse.
They went on from Perga and came to Antioch in Pisidia. And on the Sabbath day they went into the
synagogue and sat down. After the reading from the Law and the Prophets, the rulers of the synagogue
sent a message to them, saying, “Brothers, if you have any word of encouragement for the people, say
it.” So Paul stood up, and motioning with his hand said:
“Men of Israel and you who fear God, listen. Brothers, sons of the family of Abraham, and those
among you who fear God, to us has been sent the message of this salvation. For those who live in
Jerusalem and their rulers, because they did not recognize him nor understand the utterances of the
prophets, which are read every Sabbath, fulfilled them by condemning him.And though they found
in him no guilt worthy of death, they asked Pilate to have him executed. And when they had carried
out all that was written of him, they took him down from the tree and laid him in a tomb. But God raised
him from the dead,and for many days he appeared to those who had come up with him from Galilee
to Jerusalem, who are now his witnesses to the people. And we bring you the good news that what
God promised to the fathers, this he has fulfilled to us their children by raising Jesus, as also it is written
in the second Psalm,
And as for the fact that he raised him from the dead, no more to return to corruption, he has spoken
in this way,
“‘I will give you the holy and sure blessings of David.’
Page 4
For David, after he had served the purpose of God in his own generation, fell asleep and was laid with
his fathers and saw corruption, but he whom God raised up did not see corruption. Let it be known
to you therefore, brothers, that through this man forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you, and by
him everyone who believes is freed from everything from which you could not be freed by the law
of Moses.”
Here endeth the Lesson.
Psalm 100
Be joyful in the Lord, all you lands; *
serve the Lord with gladness and come before his presence with a song.
Know this: The Lord himself is God; *
he himself has made us, and we are his; we are his people and the sheep of his
pasture.
Enter his gates with thanksgiving; go into his courts with praise; *
give thanks to him and call upon his Name.
For the Lord is good; his mercy is everlasting; *
and his faithfulness endures from age to age.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost:*
as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
The Lesson appointed for the Epistle is written in the Seventh Chapter of the Book of Revelation,
beginning at the Ninth Verse.
After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from
all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white
robes, with palm branches in their hands, and crying out with a loud voice, “Salvation belongs to our
God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!” And all the angels were standing around the throne and
around the elders and the four living creatures, and they fell on their faces before the throne and
worshiped God, saying, “Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and
power and might be to our God forever and ever! Amen.”
Then one of the elders addressed me, saying, “Who are these, clothed in white robes, and from where
have they come?” I said to him, “Sir, you know.” And he said to me, “These are the ones coming out
of the great tribulation. They have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
“Therefore they are before the throne of God,
and serve him day and night in his temple;
and he who sits on the throne will shelter them with his presence.
Page 5
They shall hunger no more, neither thirst anymore;
the sun shall not strike them,
nor any scorching heat.
For the Lamb in the midst of the throne will be their shepherd,
and he will guide them to springs of living water,
and God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.”
Here endeth the Lesson.

The Holy Gospel is written in the Tenth Chapter of the Gospel According to St. John, beginning
at the Twenty-Second Verse.
People Glory be to thee, O Lord.
It was the Feast of Dedication at Jerusalem. It was winter, and Jesus was walking in the temple, in the
colonnade of Solomon. So the Jews gathered around him and said to him, “How long will you keep
us in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly.” Jesus answered them, “I told you, and you do
not believe. The works that I do in my Father's name bear witness about me, but you do not believe
because you are not among my sheep. My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow
me. I give them eternal life, and they will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand. My
Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch them out of the
Father's hand. I and the Father are one.”
People Praise be to thee, O Christ.

Announcements
WE beseech thee also, so to direct and dispose the hearts of all Christian rulers, that they may truly
and impartially administer justice, to the punishment of wickedness and vice, and to the maintenance
of thy true religion, and virtue.
Give grace, O heavenly Father, to all Bishops and other Ministers, that they may, both by their life
and doctrine, set forth thy true and lively Word, and rightly and duly administer thy holy Sacraments.
And to all thy People give thy heavenly grace; [and especially ____] and to this congregation here
present; that, with meek heart and due reverence, they may hear, and receive thy holy Word; truly
serving thee in holiness and righteousness all the days of their life.
Page 9
And we most humbly beseech thee, of thy goodness, O Lord, to comfort and succour all those who,
in this transitory life, are in trouble, sorrow, need, sickness, or any other adversity, [especially ____].
And we also bless thy holy Name for all thy servants departed this life in thy faith and fear, [especially
____]; beseeching thee to grant them continual growth in thy love and service, and to give us grace
so to follow their good examples, that with them we may be partakers of thy heavenly kingdom. Grant
this, O Father, for Jesus Christ’s sake, our only Mediator and Advocate. Amen.
ALMIGHTY God, Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Maker of all things, Judge of all men; We
acknowledge and bewail our manifold sins and wickedness, Which we, from time to time, most
grievously have committed, By thought, word, and deed, Against thy Divine Majesty,
Provoking most justly thy wrath and indignation against us. We do earnestly repent, And are
heartily sorry for these our misdoings; The remembrance of them is grievous unto us; The
burden of them is intolerable. Have mercy upon us, 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.
Hear what comfortable words our Saviour Christ saith unto all who truly turn to him.
COME unto me, all ye that travail and are heavy laden, and I will refresh you. (Matthew 11:28)
So God loved the world, that he gave his only-begotten Son, to the end that all that believe in him
should not perish, but have everlasting life. (John 3:16)
IT is very meet, right, and our bounden duty that we should at all times, and in all places, give thanks
unto thee, O Lord, Holy Father, Almighty, Everlasting God.
THEREFORE with Angels and Archangels, and with all the company of heaven, we laud and magnify
thy glorious Name; evermore praising thee, and saying,
Sanctus Willan
ALL glory be to thee, Almighty God, our heavenly Father, for that thou, of thy tender mercy, didst
give thine only Son Jesus Christ to suffer death upon the cross for our redemption; who made there,
by his one oblation of himself once offered, a full, perfect, and sufficient sacrifice, oblation, and
satisfaction, for the sins of 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, he brake 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
Page 11
it to them, saying, Drink ye all of this; for this is my Blood of the New Testament, 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, according to the institution of thy dearly beloved Son
our Saviour Jesus Christ, we, thy humble servants, do celebrate and make here before thy Divine
Majesty, 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; rendering unto thee most hearty thanks for the innumerable
benefits procured unto us by the same.
AND we most humbly beseech thee, O merciful Father, to hear us; and, of thy almighty goodness,
vouchsafe to bless and sanctify, with thy Word and Holy Spirit, these thy gifts and creatures of bread
and wine; that we, receiving them according to thy Son our Savior Jesus Christ’s holy institution, in
remembrance of his death and passion, may be partakers of his most blessed Body and Blood.
AND we earnestly desire thy fatherly goodness mercifully to accept this our sacrifice of praise and
thanksgiving; most humbly beseeching thee to grant that, by the merits and death of thy Son Jesus
Christ, and through faith in his blood, we, and all thy whole Church, may obtain remission of our sins,
and all other benefits of his passion. And here we offer and present unto thee, O Lord, our selves, our
souls and bodies, to be a reasonable, holy, and living sacrifice unto thee; humbly beseeching thee that
we, and all others who shall be partakers of this Holy Communion, may worthily receive the most
precious Body and Blood of thy Son Jesus Christ, be filled with thy grace and heavenly benediction,
and made one body with him, that he may dwell in us, and we in him. And although we are unworthy,
through our manifold sins, to offer unto thee any sacrifice; yet we beseech thee to accept this our
bounden duty and service, not weighing our merits, but pardoning our offenses, through Jesus Christ
our Lord; By whom, and with whom, in the unity of the Holy Ghost, all honour and glory be unto thee,
O Father Almighty, world without end. Amen.
AND now, as our Saviour Christ hath 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.
WE do not presume to come to this thy Table, O merciful Lord, trusting in our own
righteousness, but in thy manifold and great mercies. We are not worthy so much as to gather
up the crumbs under thy Table. But thou art the same Lord, whose property is always to have
mercy: Grant us therefore, gracious Lord, so to eat the flesh of thy dear Son Jesus Christ, and
Page 12
to drink his blood, that our sinful bodies may be made clean by his body, and our souls washed
through his most precious blood, and that we may evermore dwell in him, and he in us. Amen.

ALMIGHTY and everliving God, we most heartily thank thee, for that thou dost vouchsafe to
feed us who have duly received these holy mysteries, with the spiritual food of the most precious
Body and Blood of thy Son our Saviour Jesus Christ; and dost assure us thereby of thy favour
and goodness towards us; and that we are very members incorporate in the mystical body of
thy Son, which is the blessed company of all faithful people; and are also heirs through hope of
thy everlasting kingdom, by the merits of his most precious death and passion. 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 honour and glory, world without
end. Amen.

Erin Newsome, a lifelong member of our church, has been selected by Experience Mission for a
month-long immersion mission to Israel following her graduation from CU Boulder in May. Before
launching a full-time career, Erin will spend two weeks in Bethlehem and two weeks in Jerusalem,
serving local businesses and in refugee camps for women and children, all while learning first-hand
about the Israeli - Palestinian conflict. Erin will also get the opportunity to tour biblical sites and walk
the path of Jesus. "I'm excited about this incredible opportunity God has called me to and I
appreciate the foundation of faith this parish has given me over the years," Erin shared at the 9am
service on April 28. "I would be grateful for our church community's continued support through a
financial donation or prayer as I embark on this mission."
If you wish to donate to Erin's mission on behalf of our church family, please make checks payable
to St. George's Anglican Church and note 'Erin Newsome Israel Mission' in the memo line.

Come celebrate this Eastertide with folk dances from yesteryear! No dance experience
required, as all dances will be instructed and called. If you can walk and breathe, you can
dance these reels and jigs. They are something in between Austen-era dances and Square
Dance. Almost all are group dances, including some mixers; thus, expect to dance with a
number of different people! Children, ages 8 and older, are welcome! You are encouraged
to bring a simple finger food.
