Collect

Almighty and everlasting God, by whose Spirit the whole body of the Church

is governed and sanctified: hear our prayer which we offer for all your faithful people,

that in their vocation and ministry they may serve you in holiness and truth

to the glory of your name; through our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ,

who is alive and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit,

one God, now and for ever. Amen.

First Reading 1 Kings 19.15-16,19-21*

The LORD said to Elijah, Go, return on your way to the wilderness of Damascus; when you arrive, you shall anoint Hazael as king over Aram. Also you shall anoint

Jehu son of Nimshi as king over Israel; and you shall anoint Elisha son of Shaphat of Abel-meholah as prophet in your place. So he set out from there, and found Elisha son of Shaphat, who was ploughing There were twelve yoke of oxen ahead of him, and he was with the twelfth. Elijah passed by him and threw his mantle over him. He left the oxen, ran after Elijah, and said, Let me kiss my father and my mother, and then I will follow you. Then Elijah said to him, Go back again; for what have I done to you? He returned from following him, took the yoke of oxen, and slaughtered them; using the equipment from the oxen, he boiled their flesh, and gave it to the people, and they ate. Then he set out and followed Elijah, and became his servant.

Second Reading Galatians 5.1,13-25

For freedom Christ has set us free. Stand firm, therefore, and do not submit again to

a yoke of slavery. For you were called to freedom, brothers and sisters; only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for self-indulgence, but through love become

slaves to one another. For the whole law is summed up in a single commandment, You shall love your neighbour as yourself. If, however, you bite and devour one another, take care that you are not consumed by one another. Live by the Spirit, I say, and do not gratify the desires of the flesh. For what the flesh desires is opposed

to the Spirit, and what the Spirit desires is opposed to the flesh; for these are opposed to each other, to prevent you from doing what you want. But if you are led

by the Spirit, you are not subject to the law. Now the works of the flesh are obvious: fornication, impurity, licentiousness, idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousy, anger,

quarrels, dissensions, factions, envy, drunkenness, carousing, and things like these. I am warning you, as I warned you before: those who do such things will not inherit

4

the kingdom of God. By contrast, the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience,

kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against such things. And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its

passions and desires. If we live by the Spirit, let us also be guided by the Spirit.

Gospel Luke 9.51-62

When the days drew near for him be taken up, he set his face to go to Jerusalem. And he sent messengers ahead of him. On their way they entered a village of the

Samaritans to make ready for him; but they did not receive him, because his face was set towards Jerusalem. When his disciples James and John saw it, they said, Lord, do you want us to command fire to come down from heaven and consume them? But he turned and rebuked them. Then they went on to another village. As they were

going along the road, someone said to him, I will follow you wherever you go. And Jesus said to him, Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head. To another Jesus said, Follow me. But he said, Lord, first let me go and bury my father. But Jesus said to him, Let the dead bury their own dead; but as for you, go and proclaim the kingdom of God. Another said, I will follow you, Lord; but let me first say farewell to those at my home. Jesus said to him, No one who puts a hand to the plough and looks back is fit for the kingdom of God.

Post Communion Prayer

Grant, O Lord, we beseech you, that the course of this world may be so peaceably ordered

by your governance, that your Church may joyfully serve you in all godly quietness;

through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Faculty Applications

Oakham PCC have applied for

permissions for two projects to be undertaken in the autumn.

A. A development of the memorial garden on the south side of the

church: Following a generous offer from Oakham in Bloom, it is

proposed to replant the south side garden as a memorial space. We are grateful for all who, up to now, have

kept this area looking so beautiful, particularly, particularly Graham

Scothern for his recent work, and we are sure that this new scheme will

only enhance this area of the churchyard.

B. Proposal for the replacement of the boiler: A new boiler is proposed

to be installed in the upstairs parish office.

Public notification was displayed on Wednesday. Parishioners have 28

days from then to lodge any objections. More detailed plans are

available for inspection in the parish office or on the website.

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 peoples 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.
