Holy Communion Service in English

Lectionary Theme: Trinity: The divine communion of love

  •   

    12. Listen to me, O Jacob, and Israel, whom I called: I am He; I am the first, and I am the last.

    13. My hand laid the foundation of the earth, and my right hand spread out the heavens; when I summon them, they stand at attention.

    14. Assemble, all of you, and hear! Who among them has declared these things? The Lord loves him; he shall perform his purpose on Babylon, and his arm shall be against the Chaldeans.

    15. I, even I, have spoken and called him, I have brought him, and he will prosper in his way.

    16. Draw near to me, hear this! From the beginning I have not spoken in secret, from the time it came to be I have been there. And now the Lord God has sent me and his spirit.

    17. Thus says the Lord, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: I am the Lord your God, who teaches you for your own good, who leads you in the way you should go.

    3. Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places,

    4. just as he chose us in Christ before the foundation of the world to be holy and blameless before him in love.

    5. He destined us for adoption as his children through Jesus Christ, according to the good pleasure of his will,

    6. to the praise of his glorious grace that he freely bestowed on us in the Beloved.

    7. In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace

    8. that he lavished on us. With all wisdom and insight

    9. he has made known to us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure that he set forth in Christ,

    10. as a plan for the fullness of time, to gather up all things in him, things in heaven and things on earth.

    11. In Christ we have also obtained an inheritance, having been destined according to the purpose of him who accomplishes all things according to his counsel and will,

    12. so that we, who were the first to set our hope on Christ, might live for the praise of his glory.

    13. In him you also, when you had heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, and had believed in him, were marked with the seal of the promised Holy Spirit;

    14. this is the pledge of our inheritance toward redemption as God’s own people, to the praise of his glory. Paul’s Prayer

  •   

    1. Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, set apart for the gospel of God,

    2. which he promised beforehand through his prophets in the holy scriptures,

    3. the gospel concerning his Son, who was descended from David according to the flesh

    4. and was declared to be Son of God with power according to the spirit of holiness by resurrection from the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord,

    5. through whom we have received grace and apostleship to bring about the obedience of faith among all the Gentiles for the sake of his name,

    6. including yourselves who are called to belong to Jesus Christ,

    7. To all God’s beloved in Rome, who are called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Prayer of Thanksgiving

    8. First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is proclaimed throughout the world.

    9. For God, whom I serve with my spirit by announcing the gospel of his Son, is my witness that without ceasing I remember you always in my prayers,

    10. asking that by God’s will I may somehow at last succeed in coming to you.

    8. The wind blows where it chooses, and you hear the sound of it, but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes. So it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit.”

    9. Nicodemus said to him, “How can these things be?”

    10. Jesus answered him, “Are you a teacher of Israel, and yet you do not understand these things?

    11. “Very truly, I tell you, we speak of what we know and testify to what we have seen; yet you do not receive our testimony.

    12. If I have told you about earthly things and you do not believe, how can you believe if I tell you about heavenly things?

    13. No one has ascended into heaven except the one who descended from heaven, the Son of Man.

    14. And just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of Man be lifted up,

    15. that whoever believes in him may have eternal life.

    16. “For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish but may have eternal life.
