11 a.m. Holy Eucharist

• If you are new to Grace Cathedral, please introduce yourself and fill out a welcome card so we can be in touch with you. We’re glad you’re here!

• Join us for coffee and conversation across the plaza in the Chapter House Library after the 8:30 a.m. service or in the Chapter House Dining Room after the 11 a.m. service.

Welcome to this sacred place where we are reimagining church with courage, joy and wonder.

Every year we choose a theme to help us explore new ideas and to listen for God’s calling. In 2019 our theme is the Year of the Body. Our body is the way we meet the world and the world meets us. Although we share much that is in common, our bodies are each unique and particular, and every body is worthy of respect. We believe that God participated in the world through a body.

So we will be examining how we care for bodies, how we treat different kinds of bodies and how we are part of the earth’s body. This year we will dance together, eat together and study

what it means for Christians to understand the church as the Body of Christ.

We invite you to be part of this body, this joyful community, even if your visit is short. How is God inviting you to be more truly alive today? What are our bodies saying to us?

May God bless you in this holy place!

– The Very Rev. Dr. Malcolm Clemens Young, Dean of Grace Cathedral

Welcome to Grace Cathedral

about today’s readingsGenesis 45:3-11, 15; 1 Corinthians 15:25-38, 42-50; Luke 6:27-38 Reading texts are printed at the end of the service leaflet.

Master, it is good for us to be here! What better time than the threshold of Lent to reflect on who we are and where we are going and how we are going to get there? Today’s readings inspire us to move ahead with boldness. In Christ, as Paul says, . . . all of us, with unveiled faces, seeing the glory of the Lord as though reflected in a mirror, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another.

The Transfiguration is not just about Jesus, but about the disciples themselves, prefiguring not only the radiant glory of the resurrected Christ but also the unimaginable metamorphosis of Galilean fishermen — and even 21st-century congregants of Grace Cathedral — into saints and apostles, servants of God’s will and bearers of God’s grace. In our own unique ways, yet in a manner incomprehensible to us, we are all being transformed together into the image we see in the face of Jesus Christ.

How can we cooperate with this divine process? As we head into Lent, what burdens can we drop? What veils can we shed? What can be cleared away so that joy might be more fully realized in our life and reflected in our countenance?

In a recent sermon, our Dean outlined a simple and beautiful formula for living in Christ: go deeper, drop your fears, and embrace God’s abundance. This is what Peter, James and John, and all of us, are being asked to do. Jesus says, truly there are some standing here who will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God – may we be among them!

This reflection was written by Peter Grace, a congregant for eight years and a 2014 graduate of the Education for Ministry (EfM) program. He facilitates the Thursday morning Bible study group and serves with our healing prayer ministry.

The Nicene Creed The people stand. All 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.

The Prayers of the People

After each petition Lord, hear our prayer. The presider adds a concluding collect

The Confession of Sin

Deacon Let us confess our sins to God All God of all mercy,

we confess that we have sinned against you, opposing your will in our lives.

We have denied your goodness in each other, in ourselves, and in the world you have created.

We repent of the evil that enslaves us, the evil we have done, and the evil done on our behalf.

Forgive, restore, and strengthen us through our Savior Jesus Christ, that we may abide in your love and serve only your will. Amen. The presider pronounces God’s absolution.

The Peace The people stand.

Presider The peace of Christ be always with you. All And also with you. All may greet each other in the name of Christ.

Welcome

The Holy CommunionOffertory Sentence

An offering will be received for the ministries of Grace Cathedral. Thank you for your generosity.

Anthem Larry King

Choir Jesus took with him Peter and James and his brother John and led them up a high mountain where they could be alone. There in their presence he was transfigured, his face shone as the sun, and his clothes became as white as the light. Suddenly Moses and Elijah appeared to them. A bright cloud covered them with a shadow, and from the cloud there came a voice which said: “This is my Son, the chosen one: listen to him.” — text from the Gospels

The people stand as representatives of the congregation bring the people’s offerings of bread, wine, and money to be placed on the Altar.

The Great Thanksgiving Enriching our Worship, Prayer 3

Choir Christ our passover is sacrificed for us.

All All repeat the three Alleluias.

Invitation to Communion

The presider invites the people to come forward for Communion. All who seek God and are drawn to Christ are welcome at God’s table.

Gluten-free Communion wafers are available at the north altar rail; please ask the Communion minister. For a variety of reasons, it is our custom to consume the Bread and sip the Wine directly from the

cup. You are invited to guide the cup with your hands. If you choose not to receive either the Bread or the Wine, simply cross your arms over your chest and respond “A men” when it is presented.

Ministers are available for shared prayer for healing in the AIDS Interfaith Chapel at the rear of the cathedral.

Agnus Dei Clark

Choir Lamb of God, you take away the sin of the world, have mercy on us. Lamb of God, you take away the sin of the world, have mercy on us. Lamb of God, you take away the sin of the world, grant us your peace.

Motet King

Choir I am Alpha and Omega, the first and last, who is, and who was, and who is to come. I will raise up a righteous branch and he shall reign as king. For this I was born, and for this I have come into the world to bear witness to the truth. In him all the fullness of God was pleased to dwell, and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether on earth or in heaven. King of kings; Lord of lords! — Revelation 1:8, Jeremiah 23:5, John 18:37, Colossians 1:19-20

Postcommunion Prayer After all have received Communion, the people stand.

Presider Let us pray. All Eternal God, heavenly Father,

you have graciously accepted us as living members of your Son our Savior Jesus Christ, and you have fed us with 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.

All respond Amen.

Deacon Go in peace to love and serve the Lord. Alleluia, alleluia. All Thanks be to God. Alleluia, alleluia.Voluntary Final, from Double Fantaisie Jean Langlais

The ReadingsExodus 34:29-35

Moses came down from Mount Sinai. As he came down from the mountain with the two tablets of

the covenant in his hand, Moses did not know that the skin of his face shone because he had been talking with God. When Aaron and all the Israelites saw Moses, the skin of his face was shining, and they were afraid to come near him. But Moses called to them; and Aaron and all the leaders of the congregation returned to him, and Moses spoke with them.

Afterward all the Israelites came near, and he gave them in commandment all that the Lord had spoken with him on Mount Sinai. When Moses had finished speaking with them, he put a veil on his face; but whenever Moses went in before the Lord to speak with him, he would take the veil off, until he came out; and when he came out, and told the Israelites what he had been commanded, the Israelites would see the face of Moses, that the skin of his face was shining; and Moses would put the veil on his face again, until he went in to speak with him.

2 Corinthians 3:12--4:2

Since, then, we have such a hope, we act with great boldness, not like Moses, who put a veil over his

face to keep the people of Israel from gazing at the end of the glory that was being set aside. But their minds were hardened. Indeed, to this very day, when they hear the reading of the old covenant, that same veil is still there, since only in Christ is it set aside. Indeed, to this very day whenever Moses is read, a veil lies over their minds; but when one turns to the Lord, the veil is removed. Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. And all of us,

with unveiled faces, seeing the glory of the Lord as though reflected in a mirror, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another; for this comes from the Lord, the Spirit.

Therefore, since it is by God’s mercy that we are engaged in this ministry, we do not lose heart. We have renounced the shameful things that one hides; we refuse to practice cunning or to falsify God’s word; but by the open statement of the truth we commend ourselves to the conscience of everyone in the sight of God.

Luke 9:28-36

About eight days after these sayings Jesus took with him Peter and John and James, and went up on

the mountain to pray. And while he was praying, the appearance of his face changed, and his clothes became dazzling white. Suddenly they saw two men, Moses and Elijah, talking to him. They appeared in glory and were speaking of his departure, which he was about to accomplish at Jerusalem.

Now Peter and his companions were weighed down with sleep; but since they had stayed awake, they saw his glory and the two men who stood with him. Just as they were leaving him, Peter said to Jesus, “Master, it is good for us to be here; let us make three dwellings, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah” —not knowing what he said. While he was saying this, a cloud came and overshadowed them; and they were terrified as they entered the cloud. Then from the cloud came a voice that said, “This is my Son, my Chosen; listen to him!” When the voice had spoken, Jesus was found alone. And they kept silent and in those days told no one any of the things they had seen.
