The Collect
Almighty and ever-living God, clothed in majesty, whose beloved Son was this day presented in the Temple, in substance of our flesh: grant that we may be presented to you with pure and clean hearts,
by your Son Jesus Christ 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 – Malachi 3.1-5
Thus says the Lord God: See, I am sending my messenger to prepare the way before me, and the Lord whom you seek will suddenly come to his temple. The messenger of the covenant in whom you delight – indeed, he is coming, says the LORD of hosts.
But who can endure the day of his coming, and who can stand when he appears? For he is like a refiner’s fire and like fullers’ soap; he will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver, and he will purify the descendants of Levi and refine them like gold and silver, until they present offerings to the LORD in righteousness. Then the offering of Judah
and Jerusalem will be pleasing to the LORD as in the days of old and as in former years. Then I will draw near to you for judgement; I will be swift to bear witness against the sorcerers, against the adulterers, against those who swear falsely, against those who oppress the hired workers in their wages, the widow, and the orphan,
against those who thrust aside the alien, and do not fear me, says the LORD of hosts.
Second Reading – Hebrews 2.14-18
Since the children share flesh and blood, Jesus himself likewise shared the same
things, so that through death he might destroy the one who has the power of death, that is, the devil, and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by the fear of death. For it is clear that he did not come to help angels, but the descendants of Abraham. Therefore he had to become like his brothers and sisters in every respect, so that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in the service of God, to make a
sacrifice of atonement for the sins of the people. Because he himself was tested by what he suffered, he is able to help those who are being tested.

Gospel Reading – Luke 2.22-40
When the time came for their purification according to the law of Moses, Mary and Joseph brought Jesus up to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord. (as it is written in the law of the Lord, ‘Every firstborn male shall be designated as holy to the Lord’), and they offered a sacrifice according to what is stated in the law of the Lord, ‘a pair of turtle-doves or two young pigeons.’ Now there was a man in Jerusalem whose
name was Simeon; this man was righteous and devout, looking forward to the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit rested on him. It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not see death before he had seen the Lord’s Messiah. Guided by the Spirit, Simeon came into the temple; and when the parents
brought in the child Jesus, to do for him what was customary under the law, Simeon took him in his arms and praised God, saying, ‘Master, now you are dismissing your servant in peace, according to your word; for my eyes have seen your salvation, which you have prepared in the presence of all peoples, a light for revelation to the
Gentiles and for glory to your people Israel.’ And the child’s father and mother were amazed at what was being said about him. Then Simeon blessed them and said to his mother Mary, ‘This child is destined for the falling and the rising of many in Israel, and to be a sign that will be opposed so that the inner thoughts of many will be
revealed – and a sword will pierce your own soul too.’ There was also a prophet, Anna the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher. She was of a great age, having lived with her husband seven years after her marriage, then as a widow to the age of eighty-four. She never left the temple but worshipped there with fasting and prayer night and day. At that moment she came, and began to praise God and to speak
about the child to all who were looking for the redemption of Jerusalem. When they had finished everything required by the law of the Lord, they returned to Galilee, to their own town of Nazareth. The child grew and became strong, filled with wisdom; and the favour of God was upon him.
Post Communion Prayer
Lord, you fulfilled the hope of Simeon and Anna, who lived to welcome the Messiah: may we, who have received these gifts beyond words,
prepare to meet Christ Jesus when he comes to bring us to eternal life; for he is alive and reigns, now and for ever. Amen.

Treasurers Needed
All Saints Oakham PCC is urgently seeking two members for the Treasury Team, to cover both day-to-
day tasks and monthly collection of figures for PCC meetings. No experience is needed as training will be given. We hope to hold a meeting
at the end of February to discuss what is involved. Please speak to Peter Hill, Lee, Alison Long or Ann Blackett for more information or to sign up.
Road Closure
From 28 January to 13 May, Station Road Oakham will become a one way street between Kilburn Road and Church Street, (with traffic flow in that direction only). This is due to
building works on a structure for Oakham School. A local diversion route will be signed throughout the duration of the closure, this will be via
Church Street, High Street, Melton Road and onto Station Road.
Rutland Foodbank
The Foodbank is currently short of
the following items – your help in providing some of them would be very much appreciated: Sugar (small bags preferred); Long life fruit juice;
Coffee; Smash; Custard; Long life milk; Toiletries, e.g. soap, shower gel, deodorant, shampoo shaving gel etc. Thank you.
Friends of All Saints
Oakham
As from the AGM on 13th March, The Friends will be without a Treasurer and a Secretary. Is there anyone who could fill either of these
positions? We have a good and varied programme enjoyed by many but Beryl does need a full Committee to make this possible. Please contact
Beryl Kirtland on 01572 724103 or by email [email protected]. We are a friendly group!

Staffing
Announcement
I am pleased to announce that a new
clergy member is soon to be joining the Team. Ordained two and a half
9
years ago, the Revd Owen Williams is currently assistant curate in the neighbouring parish of Uppingham.
The Bishop and those responsible for his training have decided that a move will be beneficial for Owen at this stage as he looks to consolidate his learning and experience, and complete
his curacy in a different context. Owen, his wife Rachel and their three children, will continue to live in Uppingham. Owen’s first Sunday in
the Team will be 7th February. I’m sure you will want to join me in making him and his family feel very welcome.
Canon Lee Francis-Dehqani, Team Rector
