10 November 2024
For Remembrance Sunday we had a 10 am Eucharist celebrated by Father Chris and observed the 2 minutes silence at 11 in Church, and read the names from the roll of honour. We then moved down to the War Memorial were there was an act of remembrance and laying of poppy wreaths by the organisations of the village.
We were blessed with dry but overcast weather.
The Christmas Market will take place in the rooms and the Church on Saturday 30th November from 11am to 2pm. German Christmas Lunch available!
Sunday the 1st of December is Advent Sunday and we shall have evensong at 3:30 in addition to our morning services.
A reading from the book of Jonah
The word of the Lord came to Jonah, saying,
‘Get up, go to Nineveh, that great city,
and proclaim to it the message that I tell you.’
So Jonah set out and went to Nineveh,
according to the word of the Lord.
Now Nineveh was an exceedingly large city,
a three days’ walk across.
Jonah began to go into the city, going a day’s walk.
And he cried out,
‘Forty days more, and Nineveh shall be overthrown!’
And the people of Nineveh believed God;
they proclaimed a fast,
and everyone, great and small, put on sackcloth.
When God saw what they did,
how they turned from their evil ways,
God changed his mind about the calamity
that he had said he would bring upon them;
and he did not do it.
Hebrews 9:24-28
A reading from the letter to the Hebrews
Christ did not enter a sanctuary made by human hands,
a mere copy of the true one,
but he entered into heaven itself,
now to appear in the presence of God on our behalf.
Nor was it to offer himself again and again,
as the high priest enters the Holy Place year after year
with blood that is not his own;
for then he would have had to suffer again and again
since the foundation of the world.
But as it is, he has appeared once for all at the end of the age
to remove sin by the sacrifice of himself.
And just as it is appointed for mortals to die once,
and after that the judgement,
so Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many,
will appear a second time,
not to deal with sin,
but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him.
Mark 1:14-20
Hear the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to Mark
After John was arrested,
Jesus came to Galilee, proclaiming the good news of God,
and saying,
‘The time is fulfilled,
and the kingdom of God has come near;
repent, and believe in the good news.’
As Jesus passed along the Sea of Galilee,
he saw Simon and his brother Andrew casting a net into the lake—
for they were fishermen.
And Jesus said to them,
‘Follow me and I will make you fish for people.’
And immediately they left their nets and followed him.
As he went a little farther,
he saw James son of Zebedee and his brother John,
who were in their boat mending the nets.
Immediately he called them;
and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men,
and followed him.
