Zoom service for Sunday next before Lent: 14th March 2021 – Mothering Sunday

St Paul’s Athens

After the worship we can have a short chat together. The hymns and other shared texts you might know by heart, or you can print out this service, or you may have a hymn book at home, or you may be happy to listen in silence. In the UK today is kept as Mothering Sunday, so we are observing this celebration today.

The Sunday worship login remains the same until the end of April. Always double check for information on our website. This year we are aligned to the Greek Orthodox date for Easter.

Fr. Leonard will lead the worship today and is the preacher. The Deacon is Deacon Christine. Christina Antoniadou is playing the keyboard. Please see ‘Chat’ on the day, to see the pieces Christina is playing.

All:          Now and forever.

Priest:     Grace, mercy and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

All:           and also with you.

For I’m building a people of power          

And I’m making a people of praise
That will move through this land by My Spirit,
And will glorify My precious name.”

                         Build Your church, Lord,
                         Make us strong, Lord,
                         Join our hearts, Lord, through Your Son.
                         Make us one, Lord,
                         In Your Body,
                         In the kingdom of Your Son.

The deacon leads us into a short period of silence, followed by Confession.

                    Kyrie eleison
