Liturgy 30:08:2020

Service for Sunday Liturgy 25th July 2021 – St Paul’s Athens

Welcome to St Paul’s Athens,   especially if you are here for the first time or visiting Athens. Due to Government COVID-19 restrictions ‘double’ masking is required in the church. A distance of 2metres should be kept between each person.

Deacon Christine leads our worship today, and is the preacher. Today is the Feast of St. James the Apostle.

Entrance: The organ will play before the worship begins. The hymn is announced from the door.

 

Opening hymn

1 Who are these like stars appearing,
these before God’s throne who stand?
Each a golden crown is wearing;
who are all this glorious band?
Alleluia! Hark, they sing,
praising loud their heav’nly King.

 

2 Who are these of dazzling brightness,
these in God’s own truth arrayed,
clad in robes of purest whiteness,
robes whose lustre ne’er shall fade,
ne’er be touched by time’s rude hand?
Whence come all this glorious band?

 

 

3 These are they who have contended
for their Saviour’s honour long,
wrestling on ’til life was ended,
foll’wing not the sinful throng;
these, who well the fight sustained,
triumph thro’ the Lamb have gained.

 

4 These are they whose hearts were riven,
sore with woe and anguish tried,
who in pray’r full oft have striven
with the God they glorified;
now, their painful conflict o’er,
God has bid them weep no more.

 

5 These, like priests, have watched and waited,
off’ring up to Christ their will;
soul and body consecrated,
day and night to serve him still:
now in God’s most holy place
blest they stand before his face.

 

Minister:  Grace, mercy and peace from God our Father

and the Lord Jesus Christ be with you

All:            and also with you.

Minister:  O Lord, open our lips

All:            and our mouth shall proclaim your praise.

Minister: Give us the joy of your saving help

All:            and sustain us with your life-giving Spirit.

 

The minister then welcomes people informally.

Prayers of Penitence

Minister:   Jesus says, Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is close at hand. So let us turn away from our sin and turn to Christ, confessing our sins in penitence and faith.

 

All: Lord God, we have sinned against you;

       we have done evil in your sight.

       We are sorry and repent.

       Have mercy on us according to your love.

       Wash away our wrongdoing and cleanse us from our sin.

       Renew a right spirit within us and restore us to the joy of your salvation;

       through Jesus Christ our Lord.  Amen.

 

Minister:  May the Father of all mercies cleanse us from our sins, and restore us

in his image to the praise and glory of his name, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

All:            Amen

 

Psalm 126

1    When the Lord restored the fortunes of Zion,  ♦

then were we like those who dream.

2    Then was our mouth filled with laughter  ♦

and our tongue with songs of joy.

3    Then said they among the nations,  ♦

‘The Lord has done great things for them.’

4    The Lord has indeed done great things for us,  ♦

and therefore we rejoiced.

5    Restore again our fortunes, O Lord,  ♦

as the river beds of the desert.

6    Those who sow in tears  ♦

shall reap with songs of joy.

7    Those who go out weeping, bearing the seed,  ♦

will come back with shouts of joy,

bearing their sheaves with them.

 

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit; as it was in the beginning, is now and shall be for ever.  Amen

 

First Reading:  2 Cor 4, 7-15

But we have this treasure in clay jars, so that it may be made clear that this extraordinary power belongs to God and does not come from us. We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed; always carrying in the body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be made visible in our bodies. For while we live, we are always being given up to death for Jesus’ sake, so that the life of Jesus may be made visible in our mortal flesh. So death is at work in us, but life in you. But just as we have the same spirit of faith that is in accordance with scripture—“I believed, and so I spoke”—we also believe, and so we speak, because we know that the one who raised the Lord Jesus will raise us also with Jesus, and will bring us with you into his presence. Yes, everything is for your sake, so that grace, as it extends to more and more people, may increase thanksgiving, to the glory of God.

 

At the end of the reading:

Reader: Hear what the Spirit is saying to the churches.

All:         Thanks be to God.

 

Minister:  Awake, O sleeper, and arise from the dead.

All:            And Christ shall give you light.

Minister:  You have died and your life is hid with Christ in God.

All:            Awake, O sleeper, and arise from the dead.

Minister:  Set your minds on things that are above,  not on things that are on the earth.

All:            And Christ shall give you light.

Minister:  When Christ our life appears you will appear with him in glory.

All:            Awake, O sleeper, and arise from the dead,  and Christ shall give you light.

 

 

The Benedictus   Luke 1, 68-79     (Please stand to say the canticle together)

 

  1. Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel, who has come to his people and set them free.
  2. He has raised up for us a mighty Saviour, born of the house of his servant David.
  3. Through his holy prophets God promised of old to save us from our enemies, from the hands of all that hate us,
  4.  To show mercy to our ancestors, and remember your holy covenant.
  5. This was the oath God swore to our father Abraham: to set us free from the hands of our enemies,
  6. Free to worship him without fear, holy and righteous in his sight all the days of our life.
  7. And you, child, shall be called the prophet of the Most High, for you will go before the Lord to prepare his way,
  8. To give his people knowledge of salvation by the forgiveness of all their sins.
  9. In the tender compassion of our God the dawn from on high shall break upon us,
  10. To shine on those who dwell in darkness and the shadow of death, and to guide our feet into the way of peace.Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit; as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be; world without end.  Amen.

     

    Sung:    Alleluia, Alleluia, Alelluia

     

    Gospel Reading                                                                                      

    Minister:  Alleluia, Alleluia.  We do not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.

    All:           Alleluia

    Hear the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to Matthew (Matt. 20, 20-28)

    All:          Glory to you, O Lord. 

    Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee came to him with her sons, and kneeling before him, she asked a favour of him. And he said to her, “What do you want?” She said to him, “Declare that these two sons of mine will sit, one at your right hand and one at your left, in your kingdom.” But Jesus answered, “You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I am about to drink?” They said to him, “We are able.” He said to them, “You will indeed drink my cup, but to sit at my right hand and at my left, this is not mine to grant, but it is for those for whom it has been prepared by my Father.” When the ten heard it, they were angry with the two brothers. But Jesus called them to him and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones are tyrants over them. It will not be so among you; but whoever wishes to be great among you must be your servant, and whoever wishes to be first among you must be your slave; just as the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life a ransom for many.”

(After the Gospel)  This is the Gospel of the Lord.
All:          Praise to you, O Christ.         

 

Sermon   (Please be seated)  

 

The Apostles’ Creed  (remain  standing)

I believe in God, the Father Almighty, creator of heaven and earth.

I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,

born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried;

he descended to the dead.  On the third day he rose again; he ascended into heaven, he is seated at the right hand of God the Father, and he will come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic church, the communion of saints,

the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting.    Amen.

 

Intercessions:   Lord in your mercy,  Hear our prayer.

 

Collect for any season:  

Strengthen for service, Lord, the hands that have taken holy things; may the ears which have heard your word be deaf to clamour and dispute; may the tongues that have proclaimed your praise be free from deceit; may the eyes which have seen the tokens of your love shine with the light of hope; and may the bodies that have been fed with Christ, be refreshed with the fullness of your Spirit; glory to you for ever.  Amen

 

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, the power, and the glory for ever and ever.   Amen.

 

The Peace      (Please stand)  The deacon will introduce words for the Peace

                       

The peace of the Lord be always with you

All:                   and also with you

 

Notices:  No Wednesday Eucharist on 28th July.

 

1 For all the saints, who from their labours rest,
who thee by faith before the world confessed,
thy name, O Jesus, be forever bless’d.
Alleluia, alleluia!

 

2 Thou wast their rock, their refuge, and their might,
thou, Christ, the hope that put their fears to flight;
’mid gloom and doubt, their true and shining light.
Alleluia, alleluia!

 

3 Oh, bless’d communion, fellowship divine!
We feebly struggle, they in glory shine,
yet all are one in thee, for all are thine.
Alleluia, alleluia!

 

4 The golden evening brightens in the west.
Soon, soon to faithful servants cometh rest.
Sweet is the calm of paradise the bless’d.
Alleluia, alleluia!

 

5 But lo! There breaks a yet more glorious day;
the saints triumphant rise in bright array,
as God to glory calls them all away.
Alleluia, alleluia!

 

6 From earth’s wide bounds, from ocean’s farthest coast,
through gates of pearl streams in the countless host,
*all praising Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
Alleluia, alleluia!

 

Minister:     Let us say the Grace together:    The Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with us all evermore.   Amen.

Environmentally Friendly Cleaning Products

A Letter from St Paul’s Local Environment Officer

Dear Friends,

Elizabeth Bussmann, Environment Officer for the Diocese in Europe, points out that environmental concerns in the Diocese are not a task for just one person.  LEOs need the support of a team to make it a project owned by the whole congregation. And so I am asking anyone interested in any aspect of the environment to join our St. Paul’s LEO team and lend a hand – this will be almost completely electronically done (minimal physical meetings)

 

Something we can focus on is a plastic-free environment. Don’t think of plastic waste as that great blob travelling the Pacific Ocean. It exists in every water-way in the world – lakes, ponds, streams, rivers and oceans.  What you decide as an individual, what your neighbours decide as a community and what we do as a congregation must and will have an effect on reducing this horrible blight which gets into our drinking water, affects the life of water creatures, enters the food chain and is finally eaten by us. It seeps into the water used for agriculture, both surface and ground, thereby affecting the crops we and our livestock eat.  Plastic is toxic.  Think before buying it or using it. Try to get your local shops and others to stop using it and point them towards available alternatives.

Council Meeting Report 15th May 2021

The 374th meeting of our Chaplaincy Council took place on Saturday, 3rd July, in the Church building. The Minutes of the 373rd meeting, held on 15th May, were signed by Father Leonard as an accurate record of proceedings. Until such a ‘signing-off’ of the Minutes, no report can be made of decisions taken at any Council meeting.

All Council members (Father Leonard, Deacon Chris Saccali, Trevor Kamuzonde, Lynn Stavrou, Nelly Paraskevopoulou, Sue Stephos, Jean Mertzanakis, Noelle Barkshire, Matilda Amartey, Angelos Palioudakis, Alice Karanja and Banji Ipinsokan) were present at the 15th May meeting, which was attended in part by Archdeacon Leslie Nathaniel of the Diocese in Europe. Archdeacon Leslie reported on the effect of the Covid pandemic on the Diocese and measures taken to ensure continuity of worship and Diocesan life. He spoke with each Council member personally prior to leaving the meeting. The following items were discussed and decisions taken:

Annual Stipend Review: to be discussed further in January.

Appointments: Churchwarden Trevor Kamuzonde agreed to continue as Vice-Chairperson; Jean Mertzanakis would continue as Secretary; no names had been put forward as co-optees, to serve on the Council for a year prior to full membership (or not), but co-optees can be appointed at any time.

Bishops’ Guide to a Well-Run Chaplaincy: this document had been studied by Council members and was adopted as a basis for running the Athens Chaplaincy.

Renewal of Father Leonard’s Licence: due to end in June 2022, this would be further considered at the July meeting – if agreed a note of submission for an extension would be sent to Bishop Robert.
