READINGS THIS MORNING COLLECT Author and Giver of all good things, graft in our hearts the love of your name, increase in us true religion, nourish us in all goodness, and of your great mercy keep us in the same; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. PRAYER OVER THE GIFTS Merciful God, receive all we offer you this day. Give us grace to love one an-other that your love may be made per-fect in us. We ask this in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. PRAYER AFTER COMMUNION Almighty God, you renew us at your table with the bread of life. May your

holy food strengthen us in love and help us to serve you in each other. We ask this in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. A READING FROM THE BOOK OF JEREMIAH Hear the word of the Lord, O house of Jacob, and all the families of the house of Israel. Thus says the Lord: What wrong did your ancestors find in me that they went far from me, and went after worthless things, and became worthless themselves? They did not say, "Where is the Lord who brought us up from the land of Egypt, who led us in the wilderness, in a land of de-serts and pits, in a land of drought and deep darkness, in a land that no one passes through, where no one lives?" I brought you into a plentiful land to eat its fruits and its good things. But when you entered you defiled my land, and made my heritage an abomi-nation. The priests did not say, "Where is the Lord?" Those who handle the law did not know me; the rulers trans-gressed against me; the prophets prophesied by Baal, and went after things that do not profit. Therefore once more I accuse you, says the Lord, and I accuse your children's children. Cross to the coasts of Cyprus and look, send to Kedar and examine with care; see if there has ever been such a thing. Has a nation changed its gods, even though they are no gods? But my peo-ple have changed their glory for some-thing that does not profit. Be appalled, O heavens, at this, be shocked, be ut-terly desolate, says the Lord, for my people have committed two evils: they

have forsaken me, the fountain of liv-ing water, and dug out cisterns for themselves, cracked cisterns that can hold no water. JEREMIAH 2:4-13 A READING FROM THE LETTER TO THE HEBREWS Let mutual love continue. Do not ne-glect to show hospitality to strangers, for by doing that some have enter-tained angels without knowing it. Re-member those who are in prison, as though you were in prison with them; those who are being tortured, as though you yourselves were being tor-tured. Let marriage be held in honour by all, and let the marriage bed be kept undefiled; for God will judge for-nicators and adulterers. Keep your lives free from the love of money, and be content with what you have; for he has said, "I will never leave you or forsake you." So we can say with con-fidence, "The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can anyone do to me?" Remember your leaders, those who spoke the word of God to you; consider the outcome of their way of life, and imitate their faith. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. Through him, then, let us continually offer a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that confess his name. Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God. HEBREWS 13:1-8, 15-16

THE HOLY GOSPEL OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST ACCORDING TO LUKE On one occasion when Jesus was going to the house of a leader of the Phari-sees to eat a meal on the sabbath, they were watching him closely. When he noticed how the guests chose the places of honour, he told them a parable. "When you are invited by someone to a wedding banquet, do not sit down at the place of honour, in case someone more distinguished than you has been invited by your host; and the host who invited both of you may come and say to you, 'Give this person your place,' and then in disgrace you would start to take the lowest place. But when you are invited, go and sit down at the lowest place, so that when your host comes, he may say to you, 'Friend, move up higher'; then you will be honoured in the presence of all who sit at the table with you. For all who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who hum-ble themselves will be exalted." He said also to the one who had invited him, "When you give a luncheon or a dinner, do not invite your friends or your brothers or your relatives or rich neighbours, in case they may invite you in return, and you would be repaid. But when you give a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, and the blind. And you will be blessed, because they cannot repay you, for you will be repaid at the resurrection of the right-eous." LUKE 14:1, 7-14

PSALM 81:1,10-16 Chant No. 2

Sing with joy to / God our strength* and raise a loud shout to the / God of Jacob.

I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of E-/gypt and said,* “Open your mouth wide, and / I will fill it.”

And yet my people did not / hear my voice,* and Israel would / not obey me.

So I gave them over to the stubbornness / of their hearts,* to follow their / own devices.

SEPTEMBER 1, 2019 9

Oh, that my people would lis-/ten to me,* that Israel would walk / in my ways!

I should soon sub-/due their enemies* and turn my hand a-/gainst their foes.

Those who hate the Lord would / cringe before him,* and their punishment would / last forever.

But Israel would I feed with the / finest wheat* and satisfy him with honey / from the rock.
