The Old Testament Keading Jeremiah 1:4-10

The word of the LoRD came to me saying, "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you; I appointed you a prophet to the nations." Then I said, "Ah, Lord GoD! Truly I do not know how to speak, for I am only a boy." But the LoRD said to me, "Do not say, 'I am only a boy'; for you shall go to all to whom I send you, and you shall speak whatever I command you, Do not be afraid of them, for I am with you to deliver you, says the LoRD." Then the LoRD put out his hand and touched my mouth; and the LoRD said to me, "Now I have put my words in your mouth. See, today I appoint you over nations and over kingdoms, to pluck up and to pull down, to destroy and to overthrow, to build and to plant."

The Lpistle 1 Corinthians 13:1-13

If I speak in the tongues of mortals and of angels, but do not have love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. And ifl have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and ifl have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. Ifl give away all my possessions, and ifl hand over my body so that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.

Love is patient; love is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice in wrongdoing, but rejoices in the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends. But as for prophecies, they will come to an end; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will come to an end. For we know only in part, and we prophesy only in part; but when the complete comes, the partial will come to an end. When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child; when I became an adult, I put an end to childish ways. For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then we will see face to face. Now I know only in part; then I will know fully, even as I have been fully known. And now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; and the greatest ofthese is love.

The Hoi,!J Gospel Luke 4:21-30

Gospeller The Holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to Luke. People Glory to you, Lord Christ.

In the synagogue at Nazareth, Jesus read from the book of the prophet Isaiah, and began to say, "Today this scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing." All spoke well of him and were amazed at the gracious words that came from his mouth. They said, "Is not this Joseph's son?" He said to them, "Doubtless you will quote to me this proverb, 'Doctor, cure yourself!' And you will say, 'Do here also in your hometown the things that we have heard you did at Capemaum. "' And he said, "Truly I tell you, no prophet is accepted in the prophet's hometown. But the truth is, there were many widows in Israel in the time of Elijah, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, and there was a severe famine over all the land; yet Elijah was sent to none of them except to a widow at Zarephath in Sidon. There were also many lepers in Israel in the time of the prophet Elisha, and none of them was cleansed except Naaman the Syrian." When they heard this, all in the synagogue were filled with rage. They got up, drove him out of the town, and led him to the brow of the hill on which their town was built, so that they might hurl him off the cliff. But he passed through the midst of them and went on his way.

Gospeller The Gospel of the Lord. People Praise to you, Lord Christ.

The Sermon Focal point of the Ministry of the Word, and the means by which the Word of God is proclaimed to the people of God. The preachers responsibility is to help the Scriptures come alive today in the hearts and minds of the hearers ofthe Word.

The Creed A corporate statement of faith, and the peoples response to the Word of God that has been read and proclaimed, adopted by the Council of Nicaea in 325 and given its present form at the Council of Constantinople in 381. The Church is affirmed to be holy (set apart), catholic (u niversal) , and apostolic (witnessing to the resurrection of the Christ).

The Prayers of the People

To pray for ourselves and others is one of the fundamental reasons we come to God. Prayers include intercessions for: The universal Church, the nation, the welfare of the world, the concerns of the local community, those who suffer or are in any kind of trouble, and the departed. The presider gathers together all the prayers of the congregation and offers them up in a concluding collect.

The Nicene Creed All recite together

The Reverend Abel E. Lopez, Rector

We believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all that is, seen and unseen.

We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, eternally begotten of the Father, God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, of one Being with the Father.

Through him all things were made.

For us and for our salvation he came down from heaven: by the power ofthe Holy Spirit he became incarnate from the Virgin Mary, and was made man.

For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate; he suffered death and was buried.

On the third day he rose again in accordance with the Scriptures; he ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father.

He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and his kingdom will have no end.

We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son.

With the Father and the Son he is worshiped and glorified

He has spoken through the Prophets.

We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church.

We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins.

We look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen.

The F ra_yers Ot The F eo pie We have heard Gods word in faith. Let us now respond in prayer for all the world, saying: Lord, hear our prayer.

The Confession The bidding reminds us that our sins separate us from both God and our neighbor. In silence we remember our sins. We note that God's very nature is forgiveness, which gives us confidence to confess our failures. We express our sorrow and repentance, and ask for forgiveness.

The Absolution The risen Christ gave his disciples authority to forgive sins in his name. We receive God's forgiveness, and are reconciled.

The Peace We reach out to one another in our own imperfections, offering God's peace and celebrating our unity as one body in Christ.

For ourselves, that we may heed the Spirit's call to help all in suffering or affliction and to bring the good news of God's love to all, let us pray to the Lord. Lord,hearourpraye~

For the sick and the dying, and those who minister to them; for the deceased and those who mourn them; for all in crisis or need; [and especially for N.,] let us pray to the Lord. Lord,hearourpraye~

The Confession Of Sin The Priest says

Let us confess our sins against God and our neighbors.

All say together

Most merciful God, we confess that we have sinned against you in thought, word, and deed, by what we have done, and by what we have left undone. We have not loved you with our whole heart; we have not loved our neigh­bors as ourselves. We are truly sorry and we humbly repent. For the sake of your Son Jesus Christ, have mercy on us and forgive us; that we may delight in your will, and walk in your ways, to the glory of your Name. Amen.

Eucharistic Prayer B continues ... (The people may stand or kneel).

We give thanks to you, 0 God, for the goodness and love which you have made known to us in creation; in the calling of Israel to be your people; in your Word spoken through the prophets; and above all in the Word made flesh, Jesus, your Son. For in these last days you sent him to be incarnate from the Vrrgin Mary, to be the Savior and Redeemer of the world. In him, you have delivered us from evil, and made us worthy to stand before you. In him, you have brought us out of error into truth, out of sin into righteousness, out of death into life.

On the night before he died for us, our Lord Jesus Christ took bread; and when he had given thanks to you, he broke it, and gave it to his disciples, and said, "Take, eat: This is my Body, which is given for you. Do this for the remembrance of me." After supper he took the cup of wine; and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, and said, "Drink this, all of you: This is my Blood of the new Covenant, which is shed for you and for many for the forgiveness of sins. Whenever you drink it, do this for the remembrance of me."

Oh, why you look so sad? Tears are in your eyes. Come on and come to me now. Don't be ashamed to cry. Let me see you through, 'cause I've seen the dark side too.

So, if you're mad, get mad. Don't hold it all inside. Come on and talk to me now. Hey, what you got to hide? I get angry too. Well, I'm a lot like you.

When you're standing at the crossroads, and don't know which path to choose, let me come along 'cause even if you're wrong I' II stand by you. Won't let nobody hurt you. I' 11 stand by you. Take me in, into your darkest hour, and I' 11 never desert you. I' 11 stand by you

Send us now into the world in peace, and grant us strength and courage to love and serve you with gladness and singleness of heart; through Christ our Lord. Amen.

How to Sta:rt a Revolution "How to Start a Revolution" is a BAFTA and Barcelona Human Rights Film Festival award winning British documentary film about Nobel Peace Prize nominee and political theorist Gene Sharp, described as the world's foremost scholar on nonviolent revolution.

[ ... ] "A primary character of the film is Gene Sharp, founder of the Albert Einstein Institution, and a 2009 and 2012 nominee for the Nobel Peace Prize. Sharp bas been a scholar on nonviolent action for more than 50 years, and has been called both the 'Machiavelli of nonviolence' and the 'Clausewitz of nonviolent warfare.'

Other main characters include Jamila Raqib, a former Afghan refugee and the Executive Director of the Albert Einstein Institution; Colonel Robert 'Bob' Helvey; Srdja Popovic, leader ofOTPOR students group Serbia; Ahmed Maher, leader ofApril6 democracy group Egypt; and Ausama Monajed, Syrian activist."

A recent piece in The Guardian explained the uncomfortable truth about quinoa. This amazing grain contains all the amino acids essential for human health, and is tasty to boot! But now Bolivian people are unable to afford the staple because the demand for it in the northern hemisphere bas pushed the cost sky-high. Some people are reportedly turning to cheaper junk food to meet their caloric needs, and diverse agricultural lands are being turned into monoculture plots of quinoa production. This is dangerous in terms of disease (think Irish Potato Famine), and the health of the land. Monoculture invariably requires more pesticides and fertilizers. So what is our responsibility as Christians? For me this underscores the need to eat locally in a much more concrete way. For one thing, it takes an enormous amount of fossil fuel to ship quinoa to the United States. Further, we don't know what conditions people are working in, or if they're being exposed to pesticides long-since banned in our coun­try because they're terribly unsafe. I worry about the safety of the farmers and their families. Then again, Bolivia is terribly poor, and responsibly developing a fair-trade market for quinoa that doesn't price Bolivians out of the market could be a very good thing. If our desire for a commodity is causing suffering to our neighbors, though they may be far away, is it justifiable? The point is: our food choices are political and moral choices as well.
