The Seventh Sunday of Easter
The Sunday after the Ascension

Some words from The Apostle Paul’s letter to
the Christians in Rome:
We know that Christ, being raised from the
dead, will never die again;
Death no longer has dominion over him.
It is Christ Jesus, who died, yes, who was
raised who is at the right hand of God who intercedes for us.
O
Lord, open our lips
and our mouth shall proclaim your praise.
Send
your Holy Spirit upon us,
and clothe us with power from on high. Alleluia.
and clothe us with power from on high. Alleluia.
Blessed are you, creator God,
to you be praise and glory for ever.
As your Spirit moved over the face of the waters
bringing light and life to your creation,
pour out your Spirit on us today
that we may walk as children of light
and by your grace reveal your presence.
Blessed be God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
Blessed be God for ever.
to you be praise and glory for ever.
As your Spirit moved over the face of the waters
bringing light and life to your creation,
pour out your Spirit on us today
that we may walk as children of light
and by your grace reveal your presence.
Blessed be God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
Blessed be God for ever.
We join in the angels’ praise of God with some words from Psalm 103:
Bless the Lord, O my soul,
and all that is within me bless his holy name.
and all that is within me bless his holy name.
Bless
the Lord, O my soul,
and forget not all his benefits;
and forget not all his benefits;
Who
forgives all your sins
and heals all your infirmities;
and heals all your infirmities;
Who
redeems your life from the Pit
and crowns you with faithful love and compassion;
and crowns you with faithful love and compassion;
Who
satisfies you with good things,
so that your youth is renewed like an eagle’s.
so that your youth is renewed like an eagle’s.
The
Lord executes righteousness
and judgement for all who are oppressed.
and judgement for all who are oppressed.
He
made his ways known to Moses
and his works to the children of Israel.
and his works to the children of Israel.
The
Lord has established his throne in heaven,
and his kingdom has dominion over all.
and his kingdom has dominion over all.
Bless
the Lord, you angels of his,
you mighty ones who do his bidding
and hearken to the voice of his word.
you mighty ones who do his bidding
and hearken to the voice of his word.
Bless
the Lord, all you his hosts,
you ministers of his who do his will.
you ministers of his who do his will.
Bless
the Lord, all you works of his,
in all places of his dominion;
bless the Lord, O my soul.
in all places of his dominion;
bless the Lord, O my soul.
Psalm 103.1-7, 19-22
Glory to the Father
and to the Son
and to the Holy Spirit;
as it was in the beginning is now
and shall be for ever. Amen.
and to the Holy Spirit;
as it was in the beginning is now
and shall be for ever. Amen.
Confession
Jesus said the Holy Spirit of truth will
convict the world of guilt, about sin, righteousness and judgement.
We know that we have grieved the Holy Spirit
of God.
So in sorrow for our sins and with repentance and
faith, let us confess our sins.
Lord God,
|
we have sinned against you;
|
we have done evil in your sight.
|
We are sorry and repent.
|
Have mercy on us according to your love.
|
Wash away our wrongdoing and cleanse us from our
sin.
|
Renew a right spirit within us
|
and restore us to the joy of your salvation;
|
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
|
Absolution
May the Father of all mercies
|
cleanse you from your sins,
|
and restore you in his image
|
to the praise and glory of his name,
|
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
|
Amen.

Sermon
The Apostles’ Creed
I believe in God, the Father almighty,
|
creator of heaven and earth.
|
I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our
Lord,
|
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
|
born of the Virgin Mary,
|
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
|
was crucified, died, and was buried;
|
he descended to the dead.
|
On the third day he rose again;
|
he ascended into heaven,
|
he is seated at the right hand of the Father,
|
and he will come to judge the living and the
dead.
|
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
|
the holy catholic Church,
|
the communion of saints,
|
the forgiveness of sins,
|
the resurrection of the body,
|
and the life everlasting.
|
Amen.
|

one God, now and for ever.

Our
Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name;

Give us this day our daily bread.

as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation;
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom,
the power and the glory,
for ever and ever.
Amen.
