NZPB page: 458 Confession / Forgiveness / Absolution

1 Praise with joy the world's Creator, God of justice, love, and peace, source and end of human knowledge, God whose grace shall never cease. Celebrate the Maker's glory, power to rescue and release. 2 Praise to Christ who feeds the hungry, frees the captive, finds the lost, heals the sick, up-sets religion, fearless both of fate and cost. Celebrate Christ's constant presence: friend and stranger, guest and host.

3 Praise the Spirit sent among us, liberating truth from pride, forging bonds where race or gender, age or nation dare divide. Celebrate the Spirit's treasure: foolishness none dare deride. 4 Praise the Maker, Christ, and Spirit, one God in community, calling Christians to embody oneness and diversity. This the world shall see reflected: God is One and One in Three.

Sentence: I would feed you with the finest wheat-flour; and satisfy you with honey from the rock. Psalm 81: 16 (adapted)

Collect: Kind and generous God, you prepare a feast for all people.

May we prepare for your banquet by putting on the garment of love that springs from a pure heart, a clear conscience, and a genuine faith. Help us to bring the lost and lonely, the poor and those in need to your feast where all are fed.

We ask this through 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

Reading: Isaiah 25: 1-9 Hugo Powrie

Psalm 23

Choir: In the Lord’s own house shall I dwell forever and ever. All: In the Lord’s own house shall I dwell forever and ever.

Reading: Philippians 4: 1-9 Mark Robertshawe

Gradual Hymn: Come to the celebration tune: Cana

1 Come to the celebration, all who are hungry, the best wine is ready and the loaves of bread;

here he comes, the bridegroom, to welcome the people,

to share out the food and see that all are fed.

1 - Choir:

The Lord is my shepherd; there is nothing I shall want. Fresh and green are the pastures where he gives me repose. Near restful waters he leads me, to revive my dropping spirit.

2 - Choir:

He guides me along the right path; he is true to his name. If I should walk in the valley of darkness no evil would I fear.

You are there with your crook and your staff; with these you give me comfort.

3 - Choir:

You have prepared a banquet for me in the sight of my foes. My head you have anointed with oil; my cup is overflowing.

4 - Choir:

Surely goodness and kindness shall follow me all the days of my life. In the Lord’s own house shall I dwell for ever and ever.

2 Who is invited to the house of the bridegroom,

to live while the dead are left to bury the dead?

Beggars from the roadside, amazed at the asking,

are called to the table where the feast is spread.

3 What kind of party is this wedding reception?

The first are the last and yet the last are first.

Royal guests of honour are standing and waiting

until all the servants satisfy their thirst.

4 When shall we come along to share in the feasting?

The day is today, the doors are open wide.

Endless the rejoicing at this celebration –

the Lord is the bridegroom, and his Church the bride.

5 Come empty-handed when you come to the table;

the drink flows forever, there is ample food.

Taste the wine of heaven and never be thirsty,

and see, as we break the bread, that God is good!

AA27 - Marnie Barrell

Gospel Reading: Matthew 22: 15-22 Rev’d Dorothy Brooker

The Sermon: Dean Ian Render A Jewish Prayer: Lord of Peace, be with those who guide the destinies of the world so that an end may come to boasting and vain- glory and the reign of arrogance dwindle in our time, so that we may stand upright, freed from the burden of fear and the weight of suspicion, learning to trust each other.

We share notices and news

1

You, Lord, are both Lamb and Shepherd.

You, Lord, are both prince and slave.

You, peace-maker and sword-bringer

of the way you took and gave.

You, the everlasting instant;

you, whom we both scorn and crave.

2

Clothed in light upon the mountain,

stripped of might upon the cross,

shining in eternal glory,

beggared by a soldier’s toss.

You, the everlasting instant;

you, who are both gift and cost.

3

You, who walk each day beside us,

sit in power at God’s side.

You, who preach a way that’s narrow,

have a love that reaches wide.

You, the everlasting instant;

you, who are our pilgrim guide.

4

Worthy is our earthly Jesus!

Worthy is our cosmic Christ!

Worthy your defeat and victory.

Worthy still your peace and strife.

You, the everlasting instant;

you, who are our death and life.

Recessional Hymn: O day of peace tune: Jerusalem [CP353]

1 O day of peace that dimly shines

through all our hopes and prayers and dreams,

guide us to justice, truth, and love,

delivered from our selfish schemes.

May the swords of hate fall from our hands,

our hearts from envy find release,

till by God’s grace our warring world

shall see Christ’s promised reign of peace.

2 Then shall the wolf dwell with the lamb,

nor shall the fierce devour the small;

as beast and cattle calmly graze,

a little child shall lead them all.

Then enemies shall learn to love,

all creatures find their true accord;

the hope of peace shall be fulfilled,

for all the earth shall know the Lord.

SG259 - Carl P Daw Jr

The Dismissal: Go now to love and serve the Lord. Go in peace.

Amen. We go in the name of Christ.
