Collect

Almighty God,

you have broken the tyranny of sin

and have sent the Spirit of your Son into our hearts

whereby we call you Father:

give us grace to dedicate our freedom to your service,

that we and all creation may be brought

to the glorious liberty of the children of God;

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.

First Reading – 2 Samuel 11.26–12.10,13-15*

When the wife of Uriah heard that her husband was dead, she made lamentation for him.

When the mourning was over, David sent and brought her to his house, and she became

his wife, and bore him a son. But the thing that David had done displeased the LORD,

1and the LORD sent Nathan to David. He came to him, and said to him, ‘There were

two men in a certain city, the one rich and the other poor. The rich man had very many

flocks and herds; but the poor man had nothing but one little ewe lamb, which he had

bought. He brought it up, and it grew up with him and with his children; it used to eat of

his meagre fare, and drink from his cup, and lie in his bosom, and it was like a daughter to

him. Now there came a traveller to the rich man, and he was loath to take one of his

own flock or herd to prepare for the wayfarer who had come to him, but he took the

poor man’s lamb, and prepared that for the guest who had come to him.’ Then David’s

anger was greatly kindled against the man. He said to Nathan, ‘As the LORD lives, the

man who has done this deserves to die; he shall restore the lamb fourfold, because he

did this thing, and because he had no pity.’ Nathan said to David, ‘You are the man! Thus

says the LORD, the God of Israel: I anointed you king over Israel, and I rescued you from

the hand of Saul; I gave you your master’s house, and your master’s wives into your

bosom, and gave you the house of Israel and of Judah; and if that had been too little, I

would have added as much more. Why have you despised the word of the LORD, to do

what is evil in his sight? You have struck down Uriah the Hittite with the sword, and have

taken his wife to be your wife, and have killed him with the sword of the Ammonites.

Now therefore the sword shall never depart from your house, for you have despised

me, and have taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be your wife.’ David said to Nathan, ‘I

have sinned against the LORD.’ Nathan said to David, ‘Now the LORD has put away

your sin; you shall not die. Nevertheless, because by this deed you have utterly scorned

the LORD, the child that is born to you shall die.’ Then Nathan went to his house. The

LORD struck the child that Uriah’s wife bore to David, and it became very ill.

Second Reading – Galatians 2.15-21

We ourselves are Jews by birth and not Gentile sinners; yet we know that a person is

justified not by the works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ. And we have come

to believe in Christ Jesus, so that we might be justified by faith in Christ, and not by doing

the works of the law, because no one will be justified by the works of the law. But if, in

our effort to be justified in Christ, we ourselves have been found to be sinners, is Christ

then a servant of sin? Certainly not! But if I build up again the very things that I once tore

down, then I demonstrate that I am a transgressor. For through the law I died to the law,

so that I might live to God. I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who

live, but it is Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the

Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. I do not nullify the grace of God; for

if justification comes through the law, then Christ died for nothing.

Gospel – Luke 7.36–8.3

One of the Pharisees asked Jesus to eat with him, and he went into the Pharisee’s house

and took his place at the table. And a woman in the city, who was a sinner, having

learned that he was eating in the Pharisee’s house, brought an alabaster jar of ointment.

She stood behind him at his feet, weeping, and began to bathe his feet with her tears and

to dry them with her hair. Then she continued kissing his feet and anointing them with

the ointment. Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw it, he said to himself, ‘If

this man were a prophet, he would have known who and what kind of woman this is

who is touching him - that she is a sinner.’ Jesus spoke up and said to him, ‘Simon, I have

something to say to you.’ ‘Teacher,’ he replied. ‘Speak.’ ‘A certain creditor had two

debtors; one owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty. When they could not pay, he

cancelled the debts for both of them. Now which of them will love him more?’ Simon

answered, ‘I suppose the one for whom he cancelled the greater debt.’ And Jesus said to

him, ‘You have judged rightly.’ Then turning towards the woman, he said to Simon, ‘Do

you see this woman? I entered your house; you gave me no water for my feet, but she

has bathed my feet with her tears and dried them with her hair. You gave me no kiss, but

from the time I came in she has not stopped kissing my feet. You did not anoint my head

with oil, but she has anointed my feet with ointment. Therefore, I tell you, her sins, which

were many, have been forgiven; hence she has shown great love. But the one to whom

little is forgiven, loves little.’ Then he said to her, ‘Your sins are forgiven.’ But those who

were at the table with him began to say among themselves, ‘Who is this who even

forgives sins?’ And he said to the woman, ‘Your faith has saved you; go in peace.’ Soon

afterwards he went on through cities and villages, proclaiming and bringing the good

news of the kingdom of God. The twelve were with him, as well as some women who

had been cured of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary, called Magdalene, from whom seven

demons had gone out, and Joanna, the wife of Herod’s steward Chuza, and Susanna, and

many others, who provided for them out of their resources.

Post Communion Prayer

O God, whose beauty is beyond our imagining

and whose power we cannot comprehend:

show us your glory as far as we can grasp it,

and shield us from knowing more than we can bear

until we may look upon you without fear;

through Jesus Christ our Saviour. Amen.

Bereavement Support

Group

For the last 3 years we have been

running a Bereavement Support group

in the Parish Hall. It has been for

people of all faiths or none, for those

recently bereaved or those who are

still aching after many years. However,

particularly since Hildred left, it has

become clear that we are not meeting

people’s needs, so the meetings on the

first Thursday of the month in the

Parish Hall will now stop. We are

planning to re-launch the service in the

autumn, in a different format. To help

provide something useful, we have

drawn up a short questionnaire to ask

those who are bereaved what would

help. If you have lost a loved one –

recently or further back, please fill in

one of the Questionnaires which will

be at the back of Oakham Church, or

from the website. Sian Cheverton.

Mothers’ Union Wine

Tasting

Thanks must go to Ben and Emma of

Bat & Bottle who provided the wine

and entertainment, those who

attended on the evening and also

those who generously gave donations.

A total of £460 will go to the Lunch

Project started by the MU in

Kettering for those children who

need a good, nutritious meal during

holiday times. Pamela Woods.

Clock Restoration

Appeal

A fundraising appeal to preserve the

historic clock in Oakham church tower has

been launched with a front page article in

the Rutland Mercury. The clock is an

important timepiece, installed in 1858 by

Dent & Co, widely regarded as the finest

clockmaker in 19th century Britain, and is

now in need of restoration and upgrading.

For more details about the clock and the

appeal please see the website.

What’s New on the

Website?

If you haven’t looked at the Team

website recently, you may not be aware

that it has a lot of up-to-date

information about what’s going on and

the latest news, so if you miss the

pewsheet for any reason you can always

catch up on the website. There is

information about church activities and

groups, and the site currently has well

over 100 pages as well as regular news

posts, so visit www.oakhamteam.org.uk
