Killiskey

Our thoughts and prayers are with Nicola Neumann and the Tottenham
family following the death of Frances (Mick). She was a Select Vestry
member. She loved nature and was a talented artist who helped decorate
the church and advised on tree planting in the graveyard.

The Parish is facing a significant drop in income levels this year due to the
cancellation of its main fundraising event and reduced monies from church
collections during lockdown. One method of assisting parish finances would
be to join in the Planned Giving arrangements which are set out below.

Please consider renewing or beginning your financial commitment to
Killiskey Parish by way of Planned Giving. By doing this you can maximise
the amount of money received by the Parish and greatly assist the Parish
to meet its financial commitments. Planned Giving is making a pledge to
donate an amount of money regularly over the course of the year whether
weekly, monthly, quarterly or by a single donation. Under the tax
regulations, the Parish, as a registered charity, can obtain a tax refund
from the government for recorded donations from tax payers (PAYE and
Self-Assessment) who contribute a minimum of €250 in the tax year. This
is the equivalent of €4.81 per week. The parish can claim a further approx.
45% of the amount donated from the government. Cash donations on the
plate, while very gratefully received, are not eligible for a tax refund. If you
are contributing more than €250 over the course of the year through this
method, you might like to consider Planned Giving.
Planned Giving can be done in any one of the following ways:
*The envelope system enables parishioners to donate regular cash
amounts which can be recorded for tax refund purposes. Envelopes can be
obtained from the churchwardens.
*By setting up a standing order with your bank for a minimum donation of
€5 per week (or monthly or quarterly equivalent).
*A donation or donations totalling at least €250 can be made directly to
the Parish Treasurer, Scott Golden, Malvern House, The Glebe, Wicklow
Town.

Due to the imposition of Level 5 restrictions, the confirmation services
planned for November cannot now take place. Please remember candidates
in your prayers as they look forward to re-scheduling.

The Hub is once more closed due to restrictions. The good news is that it
is a safe space as the necessary precautions are in place.

As winter and shorter daylight hours approach, we all need to seek
positivity during this second period of significant restrictions. The great
outdoors will once again provide solace for many. Gardening is a
wonderful panacea in a turbulent world and additionally can provide food
for the larder. Reconnecting with the land proved a big hit in the first
Lockdown, let it happen again this winter; feeling the earth in one’s hands
really helps to keep people grounded. Nature can also act as a soothing
balm; we all heard and saw great stories of this in the spring. While
always remaining within 5km of your home, you could visit a local park or
wood, stroll along a beach, walk along your local road, looking carefully all
around you – a wide array of wildlife is there to be seen. Birds can also be
attracted into our gardens, by hanging up bird feeders (seed and feeders
can be delivered straight to your door by ordering on-line, e.g. from
BirdWatch Ireland in Kilcoole). A dull grey day can be brightened up by
the antics of colourful goldfinches, blue, great and coal tits and many
other species competing for food. Some lucky households will even be
blessed with the presence of great spotted woodpeckers. Enjoy!

WEDNESDAY 28 OCTOBER. EVENING PRAYER

 

GREETING

Welcome in the name of Christ. God’s grace, mercy, and peace be with you.

And also with you.

 

PREPARATION

In a world where fear can hold us back, we face the future with confidence in God’s presence.

As God’s people we have gathered. Let us worship together. Amen.

 

PENITENCE

We come to God as one from whom no secrets are hidden, to ask for his forgiveness and peace.

 

Silence is kept

 

Let us admit to God the sin which always confronts us:

Almighty and most merciful Father, we have wandered and strayed from your ways like lost sheep. We have followed too much the devices and desires of our own hearts. We have offended against your holy laws. We have left undone those things that we ought to have done; and we have done those things that we ought not to have done; and there is no health in us. But you, O Lord, have mercy upon us sinners. Spare those who confess their faults. Restore those who are penitent, according to your promises declared to humankind in Christ Jesus our Lord. And grant, O most merciful Father, for his sake, that we may live a disciplined, righteous and godly life, to the glory of your holy name. Amen.

 

May the God of love and power forgive you and free you from your sins, heal and strengthen you by the Spirit, and raise you to new life in Christ our Lord. Amen.

 

 

 

VERSICLES AND RESPONSES

God in Christ has revealed his glory.

Come, let us worship.

From the rising of the sun to its setting.

The Lord’s name is greatly to be praised.

Glory to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit;

as it was in the beginning is now and shall be for ever. Amen.

THE WORD OF GOD

 

A READING

Revelation 13:11-18

Then I saw another beast that rose out of the earth; it had two horns like a lamb and it spoke like a dragon. It exercises all the authority of the first beast on its behalf, and it makes the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast, whose mortal wound had been healed. It performs great signs, even making fire come down from heaven to earth in the sight of all; and by the signs that it is allowed to perform on behalf of the beast, it deceives the inhabitants of earth, telling them to make an image for the beast that had been wounded by the sword and yet lived; and it was allowed to give breath to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast could even speak and cause those who would not worship the image of the beast to be killed. Also it causes all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead, so that no one can buy or sell who does not have the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name. This calls for wisdom: let anyone with understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a person. Its number is six hundred and sixty-six.

MORNING PRAYER FOR USE ON SUNDAY – 25 OCTOBER 2020
THE FIFTH SUNDAY BEFORE ADVENT

The Gathering of God’s People
THE GREETING
Grace, mercy and peace
from God our Father
and the Lord Jesus Christ
be with you all
and also with you.
Hymn of Praise: CH56 “Lord, as I wake I turn to you”
Lord, as I wake I turn to you,
yourself the first thought of my day:
my King, my God, whose help is sure,
yourself the help for which I pray.
There is no blessing, Lord, from you
for those who make their will their way,
no praise for those who will not praise,
no peace for those who will not pray.
Your loving gifts of grace to me,
those favours I could never earn,
call for my thanks in praise and prayer,
all me to love you in return.
Lord, make my life a life of love,
keep me from sin in all I do;
Lord, make your law my only law,
your will my will, for love of you.
Brian Foley (1919-2000)
based on Psalm 5
INTRODUCTION
We have come together in the name of Christ
to offer our praise and thanksgiving,
to hear and receive God’s holy word,
to seek the forgiveness of our sins,
and to pray for the needs of the world,
that by the power of the Holy Spirit
we may give ourselves to the service of God.
O Lord, open our lips,
and our mouth will proclaim your praise.
Let us worship the Lord.
All praise to his name.
Blessed are you, Sovereign God, Creator of all,
to you be praise and glory for ever.
You founded the earth in the beginning
and the heavens are the work of your hands.
In the fulness of time, you made us in your image,
and in these last days you have spoken to us
in your Son Jesus Christ, the Word made flesh.
As we rejoice in the gift of your presence among us
let the light of your love always shine in our hearts,
your Spirit ever renew our lives
and your praises ever be on our lips.
Blessed be God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
Blessed be God for ever.
PENITENCE
If we say we have no sin we deceive ourselves,
and the truth is not in us.
If we confess our sins,
God is faithful and just
and will forgive our sins
and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 1 John 1: 8-9
Let us confess our sins to God our Father.
O God, our loving Father in heaven,
we confess that we have sinned against you;
we have broken your commandments;
we have often been selfish,
and we have not loved you as we should.
For these, and all our sins, forgive us, we pray:
through our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Amen.
May the Father of all mercies
cleanse you from your sins,
and restore you in his image
to the praise and glory of his name,
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
SENTENCES OF SCRIPTURE
Your word is a lantern to my feet
and a light upon our path. cf Psalm 119:105
O Lord, your word is everlasting:
it stands firm for ever in the heavens. cf Psalm 119: 89
Let us then receive the word of the Lord:
so may the light of your presence shine into our hearts.
Proclaiming and Receiving the Word
The First Reading: Leviticus 19: 1-2, 15-18
The Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Speak to all the congregation of the people of Israel and say to them: You shall be holy, for I the Lord
your God am holy.
You shall not render an unjust judgement; you shall not be partial to the poor or defer to the great: with
justice you shall judge your neighbour. You shall not go around as a slanderer among your people, and
you shall not profit by the blood of your neighbour: I am the Lord.
You shall not hate in your heart anyone of your kin; you shall reprove your neighbour, or you will incur
guilt yourself. You shall not take vengeance or bear a grudge against any of your people, but you shall
love your neighbour as yourself: I am the Lord.
After the reading silence may be kept.
The Second Reading: 1 Thessalonians 2: 1-8
You yourselves know, brothers and sisters, that our coming to you was not in vain, but though we had
already suffered and been shamefully maltreated at Philippi, as you know, we had courage in our God to
declare to you the gospel of God in spite of great opposition. For our appeal does not spring from deceit
or impure motives or trickery, but just as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the message
of the gospel, even so we speak, not to please mortals, but to please God who tests our hearts. As you
know and as God is our witness, we never came with words of flattery or with a pretext for greed; nor did
we seek praise from mortals, whether from you or from others, though we might have made demands as
apostles of Christ. But we were gentle among you, like a nurse tenderly caring for her own children. So
deeply do we care for you that we are determined to share with you not only the gospel of God but also
our own selves, because you have become very dear to us.
After the reading silence may be kept.
Hymn before the Gospel: CH515 “A new commandment I give unto you” (sung twice)
A new commandment, I give unto you
That you love one another, as I have loved you.
That you love one another, as I have loved you.
By this, shall all know that you are my disciples,
If you have love one for another.
By this, shall all know you are my disciples,
If you have love one for another.
John 13: 34-35
The Gospel Reading: Matthew 22: 34-46
When the Pharisees heard that he had silenced the Sadducees, they gathered together, and one of them, a
lawyer, asked him a question to test him. ‘Teacher, which commandment in the law is the greatest?’ He
said to him, ‘ “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all
your mind.” This is the greatest and first commandment. And a second is like it: “You shall love your
neighbour as yourself.” On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.’
Now while the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them this question: ‘What do you think of
the Messiah? Whose son is he?’ They said to him, ‘The son of David.’ He said to them, ‘How is it then
that David by the Spirit calls him Lord, saying,
“The Lord said to my Lord,
‘Sit at my right hand,
until I put your enemies under your feet’ ”?
If David thus calls him Lord, how can he be his son?’ No one was able to give him an answer, nor from
that day did anyone dare to ask him any more questions.
THE SERMON
COLLECT OF THE WORD
O God,
you have commanded us
to love you above all things
and our neighbours as ourselves.
Grant us the Spirit to think and do
what is pleasing in your sight,
that our faith in you may never waver
and our love for one another may not falter;
through Jesus Christ, your Son, our Lord,
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever. Amen.
The Response to God’s Word
AFFIRMATION OF FAITH
Do you believe and trust in God the Father,
who made the world?
I believe and trust in him.
Do you believe and trust in his Son Jesus Christ,
who redeemed mankind?
I believe and trust in him.
Do you believe and trust in the Holy Spirit
who gives life to the people of God?
I believe and trust in him.
This is the faith of the Church.
This is our faith,
We believe and trust in One God,
Father, Son and holy Spirit.
Responsorial Hymn : CH523 “Help us to help each other, Lord”(vs 1, 3, 4 and 6)
Help us to help each other, Lord,
each other’s cross to bear;
let each his friendly aid afford,
and feel another’s care.
Up into thee, our living head,
let us in all things grow,
till thou hast made us free indeed,
and spotless here below.
Touched by the loadstone of thy love
let all our hearts agree;
and ever toward each other move,
and ever move toward thee.
This is the bond of perfectness,
thy spotless charity.
O let us still, we pray, possess
the mind that was in thee.
Charles Wesley (1707-88) altd.

through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
THE LORD’S PRAYER

Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our sins
as we forgive those who sin against us.
Lead us not into temptation
but deliver us from evil.

now and for ever. Amen.
Closing Hymn: CH517 “Brother, sister, let me serve you” (vs. 1-5)
Brother, sister, let me serve you;
let me be as Christ to you.
Pray that I may have the grace to
let you be my servant too.
We are pilgrims on a journey,
and companions on the road;
we are here to help each other
walk the mile and bear the load.
I will hold the Christlight for you
in the nighttime of your fear;
I will hold my hand out to you,
speak the peace you long to hear.
I will weep when you are weeping;
when you laugh I’ll laugh with you;
I will share your joy and sorrow,
till we’ve seen this journey through.
When we sing to God in heaven,
we shall find such harmony,
born of all we’ve known together
of Christ’s love and agony.
Richard Gillard (b. 1953)

A READING
Matthew 17: 22-27
As they were gathering in Galilee, Jesus said to them, ‘The Son of Man is going to be betrayed into human
hands, and they will kill him, and on the third day he will be raised.’ And they were greatly distressed.
When they reached Capernaum, the collectors of the temple tax came to Peter and said, ‘Does your teacher
not pay the temple tax?’ He said, ‘Yes, he does.’ And when he came home, Jesus spoke of it first, asking,
‘What do you think, Simon? From whom do kings of the earth take toll or tribute? From their children or
from others?’ When Peter said, ‘From others’, Jesus said to him, ‘Then the children are free. However, so that
we do not give offence to them, go to the lake and cast a hook; take the first fish that comes up; and when
you open its mouth, you will find a coin; take that and give it to them for you and me.’
ADDRESS
PRAYER
Let us pray.
Lord, have mercy upon us.
Christ, have mercy upon us.
Lord, have mercy upon us.
We give you thanks, Almighty God,
for the gift of the Church and its people and its work:
For the mothers and fathers of the faith, and all the faithful of time past;
for your holy prophets and apostles,
and all martyrs and saints in every age and in every land;
for all who serve you as servants and stewards of your divine mysteries,
and those who have taught us your story and shown us your ways.
We thank you, O Lord.
You have made us one with your saints in heaven and earth:
Grant that in our pilgrimage, we may always be supported
by this fellowship of love and prayer, and know ourselves
to be surrounded by their witness to your power and mercy.
Hear us, O Lord.
We offer prayers for the holy catholic Church, and all who seek the Truth:
For the holy communities of which we are a part in Wicklow and Killiskey
and for our ecumenical partners:
Lord, have mercy.
Christ have mercy.
For all bishops, priests, ministers, and leaders:
Lord, have mercy.
Christ have mercy.
For the companions to whom we have promised
our faithfulness and prayers:
Lord, have mercy.
Christ have mercy.
Accept the prayers of your people, we pray, and in your mercy,
Look with compassion on all who turn to you for help:
Grant that we may find you and be found by you;
That our divisions may cease; that we may be united in your truth;
And walk together in love to bear witness to your glory in the world. Amen.
COLLECTS
O God,
without you we are not able to please you;
Mercifully grant that your Holy Spirit
may in all things direct and rule our hearts;
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
You have taught us to keep your commandments by loving you
and our neighbour: Grant us the grace of your Spirit
that we may be devoted to you with our whole heart,
and united to one another in pure affection
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
In your providence, you have given your servants various gifts:
Grant your grace to all who are called to any office or ministry,
and so fill them with truth and clothe them with holiness of life,
that they may faithfully serve you to the glory of your name
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
Lighten our darkness, O Lord we pray
and in your great mercy defend us
in all perils and dangers of this night;
for the love of your only Son, our Saviour Jesus Christ. Amen.
Grant, O Lord,
that the word which we hear this day
may so take root in our hearts,
that we, living in accordance with your holy will,
may ever praise and magnify your glorious name;
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
THE LORD’S PRAYER
Now with all your people, we pray the prayer that Jesus taught
those he called brothers and sisters and friends:
Our Father, who art in heaven:
hallowed be thy name,
thy kingdom come,
thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory
for ever and ever. Amen.
THE ENDING
Thanks be to God – Creator, Redeemer and Giver of Life.
May the Lord be with us,
may the holy angels bring us peace,
and may the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be always with us. Amen.
