Propers for the Tenth Sunday after TrinityThe Book of Common Prayer 1928
The Collect.
LET thy merciful ears, O Lord, be open to the prayers of thy humble servants; and, that they may obtain their petitions, make them to ask such things as shall please thee; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
The Epistle. 1 Cor. xii. 1.CONCERNING spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant. Ye know that ye were Gentiles. carried away unto these dumb idols, even as ye were led. Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost. Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all. But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal. For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit; to another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit, to another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues: but all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will.The Gospel. St. Luke xix. 41.AND when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it, saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace but now they are hid from thine eyes. For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side, and shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; be cause thou knewest not the time of thy visitation. And he went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold therein, and them that bought; saying unto them, It is written, My house is the house of prayer: but ye have made it a den of thieves. And he taught daily in the temple.

We’re live-streaming this week!
The upcoming YouTube live-stream will always be found at “Watch this Sunday’s live-stream,” also accessible from the menu bar at the top of the website home page.
Any Sunday that we live-stream, the audio of that Sunday’s sermon is posted sometime Sunday evening on the media page on our website.
We’ve brought some new equipment online! We have some nice new camera angles now…although we are working on focus and zoom levels (so please bear with us). If you haven’t checked out our live-stream lately…please do!

Rector’s Forum: Father Hutchens will be presenting his vision for Christ Church Anglican after the service this coming Sunday (not last Sunday as erroneously reported in the weekly e-news!). Please plan on staying for a few minutes after church to hear his presentation and ask any questions you might have.
Seminary Education updates: Father Hutchens has written an update regarding the recent graduation of several seminary students from the Rwandan Diocese of Kibungo. Click here to read it.
In the meantime, please be continue in prayer for the Anglican Church in Rwanda, particularly that God would move those in authority in Rwanda to re-open a number of churches that have been closed by the Rwandan government.
Upcoming Christian Education opportunities: We have two upcoming opportunities for Christian Education coming in the next few weeks:
- Islam from a Christian Viewpoint. Is the Jesus of Islam the same one found in Christianity? Join us for a Saturday teaching 10:30 – Noon beginning Saturday, September 26th for a five week overview of Islam. You don’t have to be a member of the church to attend this class, so please invite others you think might be interested!
- Wednesday morning Bible study. This will be a Wednesday morning opportunity for study and fellowship, ideal for those who work evenings or Sundays, or who are just available on Wednesday mornings! Starts September 16th at 11:30 AM, which will be the beginning of a study of the Book of Mark.
Installation of Father Hutchens as Rector: Sunday, September 13th at 4pm Bishop Hewitt will officially institute Fr. Hutchens as the Rector of Christ Church Anglican. All are encouraged to attend!
