The Proclamation of the Word
A READING FROM THE BOOK OF GENESIS
Read by Darryl Nakamoto
Jacob left Beersheba and went toward Haran. He came to a certain
place and stayed there for the night, because the sun had set.
Taking one of the stones of the place, he put it under his head and
lay down in that place. And he dreamed that there was a ladder set
up on the earth, the top of it reaching to heaven; and the angels of
God were ascending and descending on it. And the Lord stood
beside him and said, “I am the Lord, the God of Abraham your
father and the God of Isaac; the land on which you lie I will give
to you and to your offspring; and your offspring shall be like the
dust of the earth, and you shall spread abroad to the west and to
the east and to the north and to the south; and all the families of
the earth shall be blessed in you and in your offspring. Know that
I am with you and will keep you wherever you go, and will bring
you back to this land; for I will not leave you until I have done
what I have promised you.” Then Jacob woke from his sleep and
said, “Surely the Lord is in this place—and I did not know it!”
And he was afraid and said, “How awesome is this place! This is
none other than the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven.”
GENESIS 28:10–17
The word of the Lord: Thanks be to God.
PSALM 103: 19-22 (Tone VIII.2) (Please remain seated for the
psalm.)
The LORD has set his throne in hea-ven, *
and his kingship has do-min-ion o-ver all.
Bless the LORD you angels of his / you mighty ones who do
his bid-ding, *
and hearken to the voice of his word.
Bless the LORD all you his hosts, *
you ministers of his who do his will.
Bless the LORD all you works of his in all places of his do-
min-ion; *
bless the LORD O my soul.
Glory be to the Father and to the Son:
and to the Ho-ly Spi-rit.
As it was in the beginning is now and ever shall be:
world with-out end A-men.

3. A READING FROM THE REVELATION TO JOHN
Read by Joyce Connell
War broke out in heaven; Michael and his angels fought against
the dragon. The dragon and his angels fought back, but they were
defeated, and there was no longer any place for them in
heaven. The great dragon was thrown down, that ancient serpent,
who is called the Devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole
world— he was thrown down to the earth, and his angels
were thrown down with him. Then I heard a loud voice in heaven,
proclaiming, “Now have come the salvation and the power and
the kingdom of our God and the authority of his Messiah, for the
accuser of our comrades has been thrown down, who accuses
them day and night before our God. But they have conquered him
by the blood of the Lamb and by
the word of their testimony, for they did not cling to life even in
the face of death. Rejoice then, you heavens and those who dwell
in them! But woe to the earth and the sea, for the devil
has come down to you with great wrath, because he knows that
his time is short!” REVELA TION 12:7–12
The word of the Lord: Thanks be to God.
Gospel Alleluia
Choir: Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia
All: Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia
Cantor: Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts; the whole
earth is full of his glory.
All: Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia
Gospeller: The Lord be with you.
All: And also with you.
Gospeller: The Holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ
according to John.
All: Glory to you, Lord Jesus Christ.
When Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward him, he said of him,
“Here is truly an Israelite in whom there is no deceit!” Nathanael
asked him, “Where did you get to know me?” Jesus
answered, “I saw you under the fig tree before Philip called you.”
Nathanael replied, “Rabbi, you are the Son of God! You are the
King of Israel!” Jesus answered, “Do you believe because I told
you that I saw you under the fig tree? You will see greater things
than these.” And he said to him, “Very truly, I tell you, you will
see heaven opened and the angels of God
ascending and descending upon the Son of Man.” JOHN 1:47–51
Gospeller: The Gospel of Christ:
All: Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.

Most merciful God
we confess that we have sinned against you

by what we have done,
and by what we have left undone.
We have not loved you with our whole heart;
we have not loved our neighbours as ourselves.
We are truly sorry and we humbly repent.
For the sake of your Son Jesus Christ,
Have mercy on us and forgive us,
that we may delight in your will,
and walk in your ways,
to the glory of your name. Amen.

The Lord’s Prayer (sung)
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your Name,
your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive our sins as we forgive those who sin against us.
Save us from the time of trial, and deliver us from evil,
For the kingdom, the power and the glory are yours, now and for
ever. Amen.
The Breaking of the Bread
Presider: “Creator of all, you gave us golden fields of
wheat, whose many grains have been gathered
and made into this one bread.”
All: “So may your Church be gathered from the
ends of the earth into your kingdom.”
Communion Hymn (Panis vitae)
Thee, O Christ, the Father's splendor,
life and virtue of the heart,
in the presence of the angels
sing we now with tuneful art,
mostly in alternate chorus
bearing our responsive part.
Thus we praise with veneration
all the armies of the sky;
chiefly him, the warrior Primate,
of celestial chivalry,
Michael, who in princely virtue
cast Abaddon from on high.
By whose watchful care repelling--
King of everlasting grace--
every ghostly adversary,
all things evil, all things base,
grant us of thine only goodness
in thy paradise a place.
Laud and honor to the Father,
laud and honor to the Son,
laud and honor to the Spirit,
ever Three and ever One,
consubstantial, co-eternal,
while unending ages run.
While unending ages run.
Communion Motet: Panis Angelicus – Claudio Casciolini
(1697-1760)
Bread of Angels,
made the bread of men;
The Bread of heaven
puts an end to all symbols:
A thing wonderful!
The Lord becomes our food:
poor, a servant, and humble.
We beseech Thee,
Godhead One in Three

5. That Thou wilt visit us,
as we worship Thee,
lead us through Thy ways,
We who wish to reach the light
in which Thou dwellest.
Amen.
Doxology (All stand as able)
Presider: Glory to God,
All: whose power, working in us,
can do infinitely more
than we can ask or imagine.
Glory to God from generation to generation,
in the Church and in Christ Jesus,
for ever and ever. Amen.
The Blessing
Announcements
Concluding Hymn “Angel voices, ever singing”
Angel-voices ever singing
Round thy throne of light,
Angel-harps, for ever ringing,
Rest not day or night;
Thousands only live to bless thee,
And confess thee
Lord of might.
Thou who art beyond the farthest
Mortal eye can scan,
Can it be that thou regardest
Songs of sinful man?
Can we know that thou art near us
And wilt hear us?
Yea, we can.
Yea, we know that thou rejoicest
O'er each work of thine;
Thou didst ears and hands and voices
For thy praise design;
Craftsman's art and music's measure
For thy pleasure
All combine.
In thy house, great God, we offer
Of thine own to thee;
And for thine acceptance proffer,
All unworthily,
Hearts and minds and hands and voices,
In our choicest
Psalmody.
Honor, glory, might and merit,
Thine shall ever be,
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit,
Blessed Trinity!
Of the best that thou hast given
Earth and heaven
Render thee.

LIFE AND MINISTRY OF OUR COMMUNITY
A letter for you!
Please pick up your Thanksgiving letter from the back of the
church today.
For all who were wondering about Michaelmas
Michaelmas, the feast of Saint Michael the Archangel (also the
Feast of Saints Michael, Gabriel, Uriel and Raphael, the Feast of
the Archangels, or the Feast of Saint Michael and All Angels) is
a day in the Western Christian calendar which occurs on 29
September. Because it falls near the equinox, it is associated in
the northern hemisphere with the beginning of autumn and the
shortening of days. Michaelmas has also delineated time and
seasons for secular purposes as well, particularly in the United
Kingdom and Ireland. Source: Wikipedia
