Pentecost Sunday



Come, Holy Spirit, and show us what is true
 in a world of great wealth where many go hungry
and fortunes are won and lost by trading in money..
Come, Holy Spirit and show what is true 
In a world of great knowledge where many die in ignorance 
and every piece of information has a price in the market-place.
Come, Holy Spirit and show what is true 
in a world of easy communication, where words leap between continents 
and we expect to see a picture to illustrate each item of the news
Come, Holy Spirit and show what is true 
in a Church which speaks a thousand accents, divided over doctrine, 
creed and ministry, more anxious for itself that for the Gospel.

Ascension of the Lord





Clap your hands, all you nations;
shout to God with cries of joy.

For the Lord Most High is awesome,
the great King over all the earth.
He subdued nations under us,
peoples under our feet.
He chose our inheritance for us,
the pride of Jacob, whom he loved.

God has ascended amid shouts of joy,
the Lord amid the sounding of trumpets.
Sing praises to God, sing praises;
sing praises to our King, sing praises.
For God is the King of all the earth;
sing to him a psalm of praise.

God reigns over the nations;
God is seated on his holy throne.
The nobles of the nations assemble
as the people of the God of Abraham,
for the kings[c] of the earth belong to God;
he is greatly exalted.
Ps 47

6th Sunday of Easter

You are my friends if you do what I command you.  No longer do I call you servants, for the servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all that I have  heard from my Father I have made known to you. 
John 15:14-15
