First Lesson

Job 38:1-7

“Who is this that darkens counsel by words without knowledge?

Gird up your loins like a man, I will question you, and you shall declare to me.

“Where were you when I laid the foundation of the earth?

Tell me, if you have understanding.

Who determined its measurements-- surely you know!

Or who stretched the line upon it?

On what were its bases sunk, or who laid its cornerstone when the morning stars sang together and all the heavenly beings shouted for joy? “ The Word of the Lord.

Thanks be to God.

104:1-9, 25, 37b • sung by all

Bless the LORD, O my /soul; * O LORD my God, how excellent is your greatness! you are clothed with majes/ty and splendor.

You wrap yourself with light as with a /cloak * and spread out the heavens /like a curtain.

You lay the beams of your chambers in the waters a/bove; * you make the clouds your chariot; you ride on the /wings of the wind.

You make the winds your /messengers * and flames of/ fire your servants.

You have set the earth upon its foun/dations, * so that it never shall move /at any time.

You covered it with the Deep as with a /mantle; * the waters stood higher /than the mountains.

7 8 9 25 37b

At your rebuke they /fled; * at the voice of your thunder they/ hastened away.

They went up into the hills and down to the valleys be/neath, * to the places you had ap/pointed for them.

You set the limits that they should not /pass; * they shall not again /cover the earth.

O LORD, how manifold are your /works! * in wisdom you have made them all; the earth is full of your creatures. /Hallelujah!

Hebrews 5:1-10

Second Lesson

Every high priest chosen from among mortals is put in charge of things pertaining to God on their behalf, to offer gifts and sacrifices for sins. He is able to deal gently with the ignorant and wayward, since he himself is subject to weakness; and because of this he must offer sacrifice for his own sins as well as for those of the people. And one does not presume to take this honor, but takes it only when called by God, just as Aaron was.

So also 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 forever, 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.

The Word of the Lord.

Thanks be to God. Alleluia Verse

Gospel

Mark 10:35-45

The Holy Gospel of our Lord, Jesus Christ, acording to Mark.

Glory to you Lord Christ

sit at my right hand or at my left is not mine to grant, but it is for those for whom it has been prepared.”

When the ten heard this, they began to be angry with James and John. So Jesus called them and said to them, “You know that among the Gentiles those whom they recognize as their rulers lord it over them, and their great ones are tyrants over them. But it is not so among you; but whoever wishes to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wishes to be first among you must be slave of all. For the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life a ransom for many.”

James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came forward to Jesus and said to him, “Teacher, we want you to do for us whatever we ask of you.” And he said to them, “What is it you want me to do for you?” And they said to him, “Grant us to sit, one at your right hand and one at your left, in your glory.”

But Jesus said to them, “You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I drink, or be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?” They replied, “We are able.” Then Jesus said to them, “The cup that I drink you will drink; and with the baptism with which I am baptized, you will be baptized; but to The Gospel of the Lord.

Praise to you, Lord Christ.

Holy Communion Offertory Anthem

Lamb of God What Wondrous Love

arr. Allan Robert Petker

Lamb of God, what wondrous love, O my soul.

Love, such love, that Thou shouldst die for me.

Lord of Grace, what matchless love, O my soul.

Son of God, Thou living sacrifice, for me.

Here, O Lord am I, fearful sinful one, guilty and condemned, Thy death is surely mine.

Cross of God, I would to turn away, yet Love it bids me stay, O my soul.

Can it be the very death I fear is that which draws me near, Lord, to Thee?

Lamb of God, Thou died for me.

A church in the heart of the city with a heart for the c ity www.christchurchlouky.org Weekly E-Notes facebook.com/ChristChurchLouKY • Twitter.com/ChristChurchLou My dear people of Christ Church Cathedral and our guests

. . . . .from the Dean

Pray with me for our Refugee Welcome Team, led by Page Curry—and for the Syrian family that we will help to settle in Louisville in just a little over a week. We are thankful for the support and guidance of Lee Welsh and Kentucky Refugee Ministries, who are making this project possible. Read more about it on page 4.

Our new organ arrived yesterday and Canon Bozeman is busy preparing it for a November debut.

We have a busy few weeks ahead of us—you won’t want to miss any of these events:

• Our children will test-drive their Halloween costumes next Sunday, October 25, and we will celebrate the gift of imagination.

• SACRED CONVERSATION begins in 2 weeks: November 1, 8, 15 in Bishops’ Hall following 10:30 worship.

• We are gathering participants for a Book Study on Sowing a Nonviolent City—read about on page 3 and join us.

• Our first Laundry Love project was a great success—next chance to be part of that is Thursday, November 19. Read more about that on page 3.

• Feast of Name and Stewardship In-Gathering with Bishop White will be on Sunday, November 22—read more about it on page 2.

SACRED CONVERSATION is just around the corner—this time it will be a 3-week set. We will look ahead to life as the Cathedral in 2016. We will talk about our mission, we will home in on our vision and we will create a strategy filter that can keep our ministry on track all year.

SACRED CONVERSATION is an opportunity for everyone to speak, listen and learn. It is a great way to get to know one another and to grow stronger as a community of faith. It is also pleasant—you will enjoy the lunch and the time together. Join us for any or all of the Sundays November 1, 8 and 15, following 10:30 worship, in Bishops’ Hall over an extended Coffee Hour. We will be finished no later than 1:00. Sign Up Sheet is on the Bulletin Board.

Our readings continue to remind us that life with and in Christ is not what the disciples have in mind.

As Jesus, today, points our attention to sacrifice, reflect upon these words of Susan K Bock: I (Jesus) came to give my life as a ransom. For yours. ...And I didn’t buy you back just to have you get mired in this sad scramble to be highest, first and best. I came to unbind you. ...from that false security and lonely contest for power and glory of the one-up-man-ship that is the world’s way, but not yours.

I am glad that you are here today.

Faithfully,

The Very Reverend Joan Pritcher Your Dean in the Interim The Twenty First Sunday after Pentecost

This work explores eternal questions of humanity, tolerance and respect, and includes excerpts from Handel’s oratorio “Israel in Egypt,” telling of struggle and freedom through the Exodus as reflected in biblical text. Randy Peters, a member of the Louisville Master Chorale, has tickets, which are $20; they’re also available at www.

Laundry Love

Our Laundry Love launch was a success— thanks to Dorothy Converse, Jane Halliday and Mildred Payne who volunteered (along with Canon Lewis, Deacon Dru Kemp and other members of the Laundry Love team).

Plan to be part of a future opportunity.

Laundry Love happens every 3rd Thursday, 6-8 p.m. at Aunt Bee’s Laundromat, 2nd and Ormsby. Laundry Love is a national outreach program that provides assistance to individuals and families that do not have washers/driers or cannot afford to add expensive laundry costs to their budget.

This project has been underwritten, so your participation will not require money—just your presence. Let Dean Pritcher or Mike DaRiff know if you’re interested in being part of this Diocesan Urban Ministry initiative.

Sponsoring a Syrian refugee family

The devastating news of refugees from Eastern Europe has many people wondering what, if anything, they can do to help. The Cathedral has the opportunity to help one family that has already been vetted by the State Department.

The Al-Mazris, a family of six, will arrive in Louisville on October 29. The family’s needs include $2,500 for rent, furnishings, food, etc.

Sign-up sheets and a list of items needed are in the office, or contact Page Curry, 451-0240.

DEO addresses gap needs that arise in service agencies throughout central Louisville. Using the Dean’s Discretionary Fund, and working with outreach partners including Central Louisville Community Ministries, Our Merciful Savior Episcopal Church and St. George’s Episcopal Church, we help with expenses such as ID application fees, prescription drugs, utilities, and some transportation costs.

You can help by contributing to the Dean’s Discretionary Fund, and by putting coins and bills in the DEO Piggy Bank.

All money received will be divided equally among these congregations: Glover Grove Baptist Church, Warrenville, S.C.; College Hill Seventh Day Adventist Church, Knoxville, Tenn.; Briar Creek Baptist Church, Charlotte, N.C.; God’s Power Church of Christ, Macon, Ga.

Why do we pray, study, work, listen and build?

Benedict, the father of Benedictine spirituality, suggested that our life is best balanced between prayer, study, and work.

We have taken that challenge as the basis of our common life together at Christ Church Cathedral: We pray (worship and the arts).

We study (spiritual formation).

We work (service to others).

In addition, we know that we are sustained by our life together, and that works best when we listen to one another. We also aim to build and maintain a structure that will support all of our ministry efforts.

And so: We listen (cathedral life and fellowship), We build (administration).

In Cathedral Matters, you will find information about ministry opportunities at the Cathedral which fit into all five of these areas. Under each of the five main categories you will see what is new to the listing for this week. You will notice that some paragraphs repeat weekly, so that our guests won’t miss any news.

You are urged to take your Cathedral Matters home with you so that you will have it for ready reference.

Now, read about our ministry, think about how you would like to be involved...and jump right in!
