17 March 2024
The third Sunday in March, so our double offering this morning. Mattins in the Church with Father Roger, and aservice with crafty activities in the Church Hall. All on a grey wet dreary day most fitting for Lent!
The Choir sang the Jubilate in B flat BY CV Stanford, and as the anthem, Oh Saviour of the World setting by John Goss.
There was coffee and cheering chocolate biscuits afterwards!
Despite the weather the spring flowers are coming on!
Next Sunday is Palm Sunday, meet in the Church Hall for the Palm SUnday Gospel and procession to the church.
Jeremiah 31:13-34
A reading from the book of the prophet Jeremiah.
The days are surely coming, says the Lord,
when I will make a new covenant
with the house of Israel and the house of Judah.
It will not be like the covenant that I made with their ancestors
when I took them by the hand
to bring them out of the land of Egypt—
a covenant that they broke,
though I was their husband,
says the Lord.
But this is the covenant
that I will make with the house of Israel after those days,
says the Lord:
I will put my law within them,
and I will write it on their hearts;
and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
No longer shall they teach one another,
or say to each other, ‘Know the Lord’,
for they shall all know me,
from the least of them to the greatest, says the Lord; f
or I will forgive their iniquity,
and remember their sin no more.
Hebrews 5:5-10
A reading from the letter to the Hebrews.
Christ did not glorify himself in becoming a high priest,
but was appointed by the one who said to him,
‘You are my Son, today I have begotten you’;
as he says also in another place,
‘You are a priest for ever,
according to the order of Melchizedek.’
In the days of his flesh,
Jesus offered up prayers and supplications,
with loud cries and tears,
to the one who was able to save him from death,
and he was heard because of his reverent submission.
Although he was a Son,
he learned obedience through what he suffered;
and having been made perfect,
he became the source of eternal salvation for all who obey him,
having been designated by God
a high priest according to the order of Melchizedek.
John 12:20-33
Hear the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to John.
Among those who went up to worship at the festival were some Greeks.
They came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida in Galilee,
and said to him,
‘Sir, we wish to see Jesus.’
Philip went and told Andrew;
then Andrew and Philip went and told Jesus.
Jesus answered them,
‘The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.
Very truly, I tell you,
unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies,
it remains just a single grain;
but if it dies, it bears much fruit.
Those who love their life lose it,
and those who hate their life in this world
will keep it for eternal life.
Whoever serves me must follow me,
and where I am, there will my servant be also.
Whoever serves me, the Father will honour.
‘Now my soul is troubled.
And what should I say—“Father, save me from this hour”?
No, it is for this reason that I have come to this hour.
Father, glorify your name.’
Then a voice came from heaven,
‘I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again.’
The crowd standing there heard it and said that it was thunder.
Others said, ‘An angel has spoken to him.’
Jesus answered,
‘This voice has come for your sake, not for mine.
Now is the judgement of this world;
now the ruler of this world will be driven out.
And I, when I am lifted up from the earth,
will draw all people to myself.’
He said this to indicate the kind of death he was to die.
