Prelude Festive Music
Processional Hymn 207 “Jesus Christ is risen today” Easter Hymn
The Word of God
Celebrant Alleluia. Christ is risen.

Hymn 174 (vss. 1&4) “At the Lamb’s high feast we sing” Salzburg
Celebrant The Lord be with you.
People And also with you.
Celebrant Together, let us pray:
People Almighty God, who through your only begotten Son Jesus Christ overcame death and
opened to us the gate of everlasting life: Grant that we, who celebrate with joy the day
of the Lord’s resurrection, may be raised from the death of sin by your life‐giving Spirit;
through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one
God, now and for ever. Amen.
Reading: Isaiah 25:6‐9
On this mountain the Lord of hosts will make for
all peoples a feast of rich food, a feast of well‐aged
wines, of rich food filled with marrow, of well‐
aged wines strained clear. And he will destroy on
this mountain the shroud that is cast over all
peoples, the sheet that is spread over all nations;
he will swallow up death forever. Then the Lord
God will wipe away the tears from all faces, and
the disgrace of his people he will take away from
all the earth, for the Lord has spoken. It will be
said on that day, Lo, this is our God; we have
waited for him, so that he might save us. This is
the Lord for whom we have waited; let us be glad
and rejoice in his salvation.
Reader The Word of the Lord.
People Thanks be to God.
Psalm 118:1‐2, 14‐24 David Hurd
Reading: Colossians 3:1‐4
If you have been raised with Christ, seek the
things that are above, where Christ is, seated at
the right hand of God. Set your minds on things
that are above, not on things that are on earth, for
you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ
in God. When Christ who is your life is revealed,
then you also will be revealed with him in glory.
Reader The Word of the Lord.
People Thanks be to God.
9am Youth Choir Anthem Just As He Said Trevor Manor (b. 1985)
Women brought their spices to the grave at break of dawn,
But the stone was rolled away and Jesus’ body gone.
Angels bright as lightning told them, “Do not be afraid;
Weep no more, but come and see the place where He was laid.
Refrain:
Why do you seek the living among the dead? He is not here, for remember what He said:
That the Christ must be delivered into hands of sinful men,
To be crucified, then on the third day raised to life again.
Why do you seek the living among the dead? Jesus is risen, just as He said!”
So the women left with tears of joy and hearts ablaze,
For two nights of mourning had become a day of praise!
When they found the Lord’s disciples, all consumed with grief,
Their glad tidings filled the men with utter disbelief.
Refrain
The disciples questioned if these wondrous words were true;
Then the Savior came to them and said, ”Peace be with you.”
All their fear was gone as they beheld the risen Son.
They went out with joy to share the news and joy with everyone.
Refrain
Hymn 179 (vss. 1‐3) “Welcome, happy morning!” Fortunatus
Gospel: Mark 16:1‐8
Clergy The Holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ, according to Mark.
People Glory to you, Lord Christ.
When the sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene,
and Mary the mother of James, and Salome
bought spices, so that they might go and anoint
Jesus. And very early on the first day of the week,
when the sun had risen, they went to the tomb.
They had been saying to one another, “Who will
roll away the stone for us from the entrance to the
tomb?” When they looked up, they saw that the
stone, which was very large, had already been
rolled back. As they entered the tomb, they saw a
young man, dressed in a white robe, sitting on the
right side; and they were alarmed. But he said to
them, “Do not be alarmed; you are looking for
Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He has
been raised; he is not here. Look, there is the place
they laid him. But go, tell his disciples and Peter
that he is going ahead of you to Galilee; there you
will see him, just as he told you.” So they went
out and fled from the tomb, for terror and
amazement had seized them; and they said
nothing to anyone, for they were afraid.
Clergy The Gospel of the Lord.
People Praise to you, Lord Christ.
Sermon Rev. Adrian Robbins‐Cole
Nicene Creed
We believe in one God,
the Father, the Almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
of all that is, seen and unseen.
We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ,
the only Son of God,
eternally begotten of the Father,
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made,
of one Being with the Father.
Through him all things were made.
For us and for our salvation
he came down from heaven:
by the power of the Holy Spirit
he became incarnate from the Virgin
Mary, and was made man.
For our sake he was crucified under
Pontius Pilate; he suffered death and was
buried.
On the third day he rose again
in accordance with the Scriptures;
he ascended into heaven and is seated at
the right hand of the
Father. He will come again in glory to
judge the living and the dead,
and his kingdom will have no end.
We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord,
the giver of life, who proceeds from the
Father and the Son. With the Father and
the Son he is worshiped and glorified. He
has spoken through the Prophets.
We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic
Church. We acknowledge one baptism for
the forgiveness of sins. We look for the
resurrection of the dead, and the life of the
world to come. Amen.
Prayers of the People
Reader We pray to Jesus who is present with us to eternity, saying,
Jesus, Lord of life.
People In your mercy, hear us.
Reader Jesus, light of the world, Bring the light and peace of your gospel to the nations.
Jesus, Lord of life.
People In your mercy, hear us.
Reader We pray for all whom we know and love, both near and far. May their eyes be open
to see the glory of the risen Lord.
Jesus, Lord of life.
People In your mercy, hear us.
Reader We pray for those who suffer pain and anguish. Grant them the faith to reach out
towards the healing wounds of Christ and be filled with his peace.
Jesus, Lord of life.
People In your mercy, hear us.
Reader We remember before you those who have died in the hope of resurrection. Unite us
with them in your undying love.
Jesus, Lord of life.
People In your mercy, hear us.
Celebrant Join our voices, we pray, Lord our God, to the songs of all your saints in proclaiming
that you give us the victory through Jesus Christ our Lord.
People Amen.
The Peace
Celebrant The Peace of the Lord be always with you.
People And also with you.
Announcements
The Holy Communion Offertory Anthem “Hallelujah Chorus” from Messiah G.F. Handel (1685‐1759)
Doxology Lasst uns erfreuen
Praise God, from whom all blessings flow; praise him, all creatures here below; alleluia, alleluia!
praise him above, ye heavenly host: praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!
Eucharistic Prayer A
Celebrant The Lord be with you.
People And also with you.
Celebrant Lift up your hearts.
People We lift them to the Lord.
Celebrant Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
People It is right to give God thanks and praise.
It is right, and a good and joyful thing, always and everywhere to give thanks to you, Father
Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth.
But chiefly are we bound to praise you for the glorious resurrection of your Son Jesus Christ our
Lord; for he is the true Paschal Lamb, who was sacrificed for us, and has taken away the sin of the
world. By his death he has destroyed death, and by his rising to life again he has won for us
everlasting life.
Therefore we praise you, joining our voices with Angels and Archangels and with all the
company of heaven, who for ever sing this hymn to proclaim the glory of your Name:
Sanctus S 125 Richard Proulx
The Celebrant continues
Holy and gracious Father: In your infinite love you made us for yourself, and, when we had fallen
into sin and become subject to evil and death, you, in your mercy, sent Jesus Christ, your only and
eternal Son, to share our human nature, to live and die as one of us, to reconcile us to you, the
God and Father of all.
He stretched out his arms upon the cross, and offered himself, in obedience to your will, a perfect
sacrifice for the whole world.
On the night he was handed over to suffering and death, our Lord Jesus Christ took bread; and
when he had given thanks to you, he broke it, and gave it to his disciples, and said, “Take, eat:
This is my Body, which is given for you. Do this for the remembrance of me.”
After supper he took the cup of wine; and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, and said,
“Drink this, all of you: This is my Blood of the new Covenant, which is shed for you and for many
for the forgiveness of sins. Whenever you drink it, do this for the remembrance of me.”
Therefore we proclaim the mystery of faith:
Celebrant and People Christ has died.
Christ is risen.
Christ will come again.
The Celebrant continues
We celebrate the memorial of our redemption, O Father, in this sacrifice of praise and
thanksgiving. Recalling his death, resurrection, and ascension, we offer you these gifts.
Sanctify them by your Holy Spirit to be for your people the Body and Blood of your Son, the holy
food and drink of new and unending life in him. Sanctify us also that we may faithfully receive
this holy Sacrament, and serve you in unity, constancy, and peace; and at the last day bring us
with all your saints into the joy of your eternal kingdom.
All this we ask through your Son Jesus Christ: By him, and with him, and in him, in the unity of
the Holy Spirit all honor and glory is yours, Almighty Father, now and for ever. Amen.
And now, as our Savior Christ has taught us, we are bold to say:
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,
and the power, and the glory,
for ever and ever. Amen.

spiritual food in the Sacrament of his Body and Blood. Send us now into
the world in peace, and grant us strength and courage to love and serve
you with gladness and singleness of heart; through Christ our Lord. Amen.
The Blessing of Easter
Celebrant The God of peace, who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus
Christ, the great Shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the
everlasting covenant, make you perfect in every good work to do his will,
working in you that which is well‐pleasing in his sight; and the blessing of
God Almighty, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, be among you,
and remain with you always. Amen.
