LECTIONARY READINGS

THE COLLECT
Almighty God, you have given your only Son to be for us a sacrifice for sin, and also an example of godly life: Give us grace to receive thankfully the fruits of his redeeming work, and to follow daily in the blessed steps of his most holy life; through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

Christ and the Canaanite Woman,
Drawing by Rembrandt Harmensz van Rijn (1606-1669),
Drawn circa 1650,
Pen and brown ink, brown wash, corrected with white body-colour

LITURGY CHANGES
During the summer season, our liturgy changes. The Great Thanksgiving comes from a supplement to The Book of Common Prayer. We’ll eliminate the hymn at communion. The lector for the first reading will also lead the recitation of the Psalm. Both of those readings are chosen to coordinate with the Gospel lesson for that Sunday, called “track two” on the Lectionary Page website.

Finally, remembering the Apostle Paul’s words,
"Let us not neglect to meet together.”
