COLLECT:
Merciful God, you have prepared
for those who love you such good
things as pass our understanding:
pour into our hearts such love
toward you that we, loving you
in and above all things, may
obtain your promises, which
exceed all that we can desire;
through Jesus Christ your Son
our Lord, who is alive and reigns
with you, in the unity of the Holy
Spirit, one God, now and for
ever. Amen
GATHERING:
I am the bread of life.
He who comes to me
shall not hunger;
he who believes in me
shall not thirst.
No one can come to me
unless the Father draw him.
And I will raise him up,
and I will raise him up,
and I will raise him up
on the last day.
The bread that I will give
is my flesh for the life of the world,
and he who eats of this bread,
he shall live for ever,
he shall live for ever.
Unless you eat
of the flesh of the Son of Man
and drink of his blood,
and drink of his blood,
you shall not have life within you.
I am the resurrection,
I am the life.
He who believes in me
even if he die,
he shall live for ever.
Yes, Lord, I believe
that you are the Christ,
the Son of God,
who has come
into the world.
OFFERTORY:
Take my life, and let it be
Consecrated, Lord, to Thee;
Take my moments and my days,
Let them flow in ceaseless praise,
Let them flow in ceaseless praise.
Take my hands, and let them move
At the impulse of Thy love;
Take my feet and let them be
Swift and beautiful for Thee,
Swift and beautiful for Thee.
Take my voice, and let me sing
Always, only, for my King;
Take my lips, and let them be
Filled with messages from Thee,
Filled with messages from Thee.
Take my silver and my gold;
Not a mite would I withhold;
Take my intellect, and use
Every power as Thou shalt choose,
Every power as Thou shalt choose.
Take my will, and make it Thine;
It shall be no longer mine.
Take my heart; it is Thine own;
It shall be Thy royal throne,
It shall be Thy royal throne.
Take my love; my Lord, I pour
At Thy feet its treasure-store.
Take myself, and I will be
Ever, only, all for Thee,
Ever, only, all for Thee.
COMMUNION:
My Jesus, my Saviour,
 Yes we know
Lord there is none like You.
 He is alive.
All of my days, I want to praise,

The wonders of Your mighty love.

8 JULY 2018
My comfort, my shelter,

Power of refuge and strength.

Let every breath, all that I am,

Never cease to worship You.



Shout to the Lord,
all the earth let us sing,

Power and Majesty,
praise to the King.

Mountains bow down
and the seas will roar,

At the sound of Your Name.



I'll sing for joy
at the works of Your hands,

Forever I'll love You,
forever I'll stand.

Nothing compares
to the promise I have in You
(Sing through twice)
FINAL HYMN:
How lovely on the mountains
Are the feet of him
Who brings good news,
good news,
Announcing peace proclaiming
News of happiness.
Our God reigns our God reigns!
Our God reigns! x4
He had no stately form;
He had no majesty.
That we should be drawn to Him.
He was despised,
and we took no account of Him,
Yet now He reigns
With the Most High.
Out of the tomb He came
With grace and majesty;
He is alive, He is alive.
God loves us so, see here
His hands, His feet, His side.

FIRST READING
The First reading is from the
prophet Ezekiel.
The spirit came into me and
made me stand up, and I heard
the Lord speaking to me. He said,
‘Son of man, I am sending you to
the Israelites, to the rebels who
have turned against me. Till now
they and their ancestors have
been in revolt against me. The
sons are defiant and obstinate; I
am sending you to them, to say,
“The Lord says this.” Whether
they listen or not, this set of
rebels shall know there is a
prophet among them.’
This is the word of the Lord.
Ezekiel 2
RESPONSORIAL PSALM
Our eyes are on the Lord till he
shows us his mercy.
To you have I lifted up my eyes,
you who dwell in the heavens;
my eyes, like the eyes of slaves
on the hand of their lords. R/
Like the eyes of a servant
on the hand of her mistress,
so our eyes are on the Lord our
God
till he show us his mercy. R/
Have mercy on us, Lord, have
mercy.
We are filled with contempt.
Indeed all too full is our soul
with the scorn of the rich,
with the proud man’s disdain.
R/
Psalm 122
SECOND READING
A reading from the 2nd letter of few sick people and cured them.
Paul to the Corinthians. And he was amazed at their
unbelief.
In view of the extraordinary
nature of these revelations, to This is the Gospel of the Lord.
stop me from getting too proud I Mark 6
was given a thorn in the flesh, an
angel of Satan to beat me and
stop me from getting too proud!
About this thing, I have pleaded
with the Lord three times for it to
leave me, but he has said, ‘My
grace is enough for you: my
power is at its best in weakness.’
So I shall be very happy to make
my weaknesses my special boast
so that the power of Christ may
stay over me, and that is why I
am quite content with my
weaknesses, and with insults,
hardships, persecutions, and the
agonies I go through for Christ’s
sake. For it is when I am weak
that I am strong.
This is the word of the Lord.
2 Cor 12
GOSPEL
A reading from the Holy Gospel
according to St Mark.
He left that place and came to his
home town, and his disciples
followed him. On the sabbath he
began to teach in the synagogue,
and many who heard him were
astounded. They said, ‘Where did
this man get all this? What is this
wisdom that has been given to
him? What deeds of power are
being done by his hands! Is not
this the carpenter, the son of
Mary and brother of James and
Joses and Judas and Simon, and
are not his sisters here with us?’
And they took offence at him.
Then Jesus said to them,
‘Prophets are not without honour,
except in their home town, and
among their own kin, and in
their own house.’ And he could
do no deed of power there,
except that he laid his hands on a
