Collect

The Collect of the Day is a prayer specific to each Sunday. The collects are concise prayers that have been used in the church for more than 1500 years. The invitation to prayer may sometimes be followed with a time for the congregation to offer up their prayers. In this way, the collect collects the prayers of the people. It serves the Gospel and glorifies the Lord by focusing our faith outwardly on the presence and promises of God.Slide14

L

O Lord, hear my prayer.

C

And let my cry come to You.Slide15

Heavenly Father, grant Your mercy and grace to Your people in their many and various callings. Give them patience, and strengthen them in their Christian vocation of witness to the world and of service to their neighbor in Christ's name; through Jesus Christ, our Lord.Slide16

Readings From Holy ScriptureSlide18

Genesis 4:1–10

P

The Old Testament Reading is from Genesis, the fourth chapter.

Cain and Abel

1

Now Adam knew Eve his wife, and she conceived and bore Cain, saying, “I have gotten a man with the help of the L

ORD

.”

2

And again, she bore his brother Abel. Now Abel was a keeper of sheep, and Cain a worker of the ground.

3

In the course of time Cain brought to the L

ORD

an offering of the fruit of the ground, Slide19

Genesis 4:1–10

4

and Abel also brought of the firstborn of his flock and of their fat portions. And the L

ORD

had regard for Abel and his offering,

5

but for Cain and his offering he had no regard. So Cain was very angry, and his face fell.

6

The L

ORD

said to Cain, “Why are you angry, and why has your face fallen?

7

If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do well, sin is crouching at the door. Its desire is for you, but you must rule over it.”Slide20

Genesis 4:1–10

8

Cain spoke to Abel his brother. And when they were in the field, Cain rose up against his brother Abel and killed him.

9

Then the L

ORD

said to Cain, “Where is Abel your brother?” He said, “I do not know; am I my brother’s keeper?”

10

And the L

ORD

said, “What have you done? The voice of your brother’s blood is crying to me from the ground.

P

This is the Word of the Lord.

C

Thanks be to God.Slide21

1 Corinthians 7:17–24

P

The Epistle is from 1 Corinthians, the seventh chapter.

Live As You Are Called

17

Only let each person lead the life that the Lord has assigned to him, and to which God has called him. This is my rule in all the churches.

18

Was anyone at the time of his call already circumcised? Let him not seek to remove the marks

of circumcision. Slide22

1 Corinthians 7:17–24

Was

anyone at the time of his call uncircumcised? Let him not seek circumcision.

19

For neither circumcision counts for anything nor uncircumcision, but keeping the commandments of God.

20

Each one should remain in the condition in which he was called.

21

Were you a slave when called? Do not be concerned about it. But if you can gain your freedom, avail

yourself of the opportunity. Slide23

1 Corinthians 7:17–24

22

For

he who was called in the Lord as a slave is a freedman of the Lord. Likewise he who was free when called is a slave of Christ.

23

You were bought with a price; do not become slaves of men.

24

So, brothers, in whatever condition each was called, there let him remain with God.

P

This is the Word of the Lord.

C

Thanks be to God.Slide24

Mark 7:14–23

P

The Holy Gospel according to

Saint Mark

, the seventh chapter.

C

Glory to You, O Lord.

What Defiles a Person

14

And he called the people to him again and said to them, “Hear me, all of you, and understand:

15

There is nothing outside a person that by going into him can defile him, but the things that come out of a person are what defile him.” Slide28

Mark 7:14–23

17

And when he had entered the house and left the people, his disciples asked him about the parable.

18

And he said to them, “Then are you also without understanding? Do you not see that whatever goes into a person from outside cannot defile him,

19

since it enters not his heart but his stomach, and is expelled?” (Thus he declared all foods clean

.)Slide29

Mark 7:14–23

20

And he said, “What comes out of a

person is what defiles him.

21

For from within, out of the heart of man, come evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery,

22

coveting, wickedness, deceit, sensuality, envy, slander, pride, foolishness.

23

All these evil things come from within, and they defile a person.”

P

This is the Gospel of the Lord.

C

Praise to You, O Christ.Slide30

The First Article

Creation

I believe in God, the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth.

What does this mean?

I believe that God has made me and all creatures; that He has given me my body and soul, eyes, ears, and all my members, my reason and all my senses, and still takes care of them.Slide35

The First Article

He also gives me clothing and shoes, food and drink, house and home, wife and children, land, animals, and all I have. He richly and daily provides me with all that I need to support this body and life.

Slide36

The First Article

He defends me against all danger and guards and protects me from all evil. All this He does only out of fatherly, divine goodness and mercy, without any merit or worthiness in me. For all this it is my duty to thank and praise, serve and obey Him.

This is most certainly true.Slide37

Our Vocations

The Christian meaning is that God calls us to the different roles that he asks us to play and in which he is active.

What roles has God

called you to play?Slide43

Offering

The Offering is a time of worship like the hymns and prayers. There are important attitudes that make Christian giving worshipful giving such as first fruits giving, cheerful giving, thoughtful giving, giving in response to God’s blessings, etc. Behind Christian giving is also this crucial understanding–everything that we have is God’s. We merely manage what God already owns.Slide44
