Compline – Wednesday 15^th June 2022

 

The Lord Almighty grant us a quiet night and a perfect end. Amen

 

Brethren, be sober, be vigilant, because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: whom resist, steadfast in the faith   1 Peter 5: 8 & 9

 

But thou O Lord, have mercy upon us,

Thanks be to God,

 

O God, make speed to save us,

O Lord, make haste to help us,

 

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit;                                                                                                    as it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end.  Amen.

 

Praise ye the Lord,

The Lord’s name be praised.

Psalm 116

¹ I love the Lord, for he heard my voice; he heard my cry for mercy.
² Because he turned his ear to me, I will call on him as long as I live.

³ The cords of death entangled me, the anguish of the grave came over me, I was overcome by distress and sorrow.
⁴ Then I called on the name of the Lord: “Lord, save me!”

⁵ The Lord is gracious and righteous; our God is full of compassion.
⁶ The Lord protects the unwary; when I was brought low, he saved me.

⁷ Return to your rest, my soul, for the Lord has been good to you.

⁸ For you, Lord, have delivered me from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling,
⁹ that I may walk before the Lord in the land of the living.

¹⁰ I trusted in the Lord when I said, “I am greatly afflicted”;
¹¹ in my alarm I said, “Everyone is a liar.”

¹² What shall I return to the Lord for all his goodness to me?

¹³ I will lift up the cup of salvation and call on the name of the Lord.
¹⁴ I will fulfill my vows to the Lord in the presence of all his people.

¹⁵ Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his faithful servants.
¹⁶ Truly I am your servant, Lord; I serve you just as my mother did; you have freed me from my chains.

¹⁷ I will sacrifice a thank offering to you and call on the name of the Lord.
¹⁸ I will fulfill my vows to the Lord in the presence of all his people,
¹⁹ in the courts of the house of the Lord—in your midst, Jerusalem. Praise the Lord.

 

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.

 

 

Reading – Luke 1: 46b – 55

 

“My soul glorifies the Lord and my spirit rejoices in God my Saviour, for he has been mindful of the humble state of his servant. From now on all generations will call me blessed, for the Mighty One has done great things for me— holy is his name. His mercy extends to those who fear him, from generation to generation.
He has performed mighty deeds with his arm; he has scattered those who are proud in their inmost thoughts. He has brought down rulers from their thrones but has lifted up the humble.
He has filled the hungry with good things but has sent the rich away empty. He has helped his servant Israel, remembering to be merciful to Abraham and his descendants forever, just as he promised our ancestors.”

 

 

Few thoughts

 

Into thy hands, O Lord, I commend my spirit,

For thou has redeemed me, O Lord, thou God of truth.

 

Keep me as the apple of an eye,

Hide me under the shadow of thy wings.

 

Preserve us, O Lord, while waking, and guard us while sleeping,

that awake we may watch with Christ, and asleep we may rest in peace.

 

 

Canticle – Nunc Dimittis

 

Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word,

For mine eyes have seen they salvation, which thou hast prepared before the face of all people,

to be a light to lighten the Gentiles and to be the glory of thy people Israel.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning,                                              is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

 

Preserve us, O Lord, while waking, and guard us while sleeping,

that awake we may watch with Christ, and asleep we may rest in peace.

 

Creed

 

Do you believe and trust in God the Father, who created world?                 I believe and trust in him

Do you believe and trust in God the Son, Jesus who redeemed us all?         I believe and trust in him.

 

Do you believe and trust in God the Holy Spirit, who gives us life?               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.

 

 

The Prayers – Let us pray

 

Lord, have mercy upon us                  Christ, have mercy upon us              Lord, have mercy upon us.

 

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.                                                                                                                                     

Blessed art thou, Lord God of our fathers,

to be praised and glorifies above all for ever,

Almighty God have mercy upon us. Forgive us our sins, deliver us from all evil. Confirm and strengthen us in all goodness, and bring us to life everlasting, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

May the Almighty and Merciful Lord grant unto us pardon and remission of all our sins, time for amendment of life and the grace and comfort of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

 

Wilt thou not turn again and quicken us,

That thy people may rejoice in thee?

O Lord shew thy mercy upon us,

And grant us thy salvation.

Vouchsafe O Lord, to keep us this night without sin,

O Lord, have mercy upon us, have mercy upon us.

O Lord, hear our prayer,                                           

And let our cry come unto thee.

Lighten our darkness, we beseech thee, O Lord; and by thy great mercy defend us from all perils and dangers of this night; for the love of thy only Son, our Saviour, Jesus Christ. Amen

Be present, O merciful God, and protect us through the silent hours of this night, so that we, who are wearied by the changes and chances of this fleeting world, may repose upon thy eternal changelessness; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

We will lay us down in peace and take our rest,

For it is thou, Lord only, that makest us dwell in safety,

The Lord be with you,

And with thy sight,

Let us bless the Lord,

Thanks be to God.

Evening Prayer

8^th June, 2022.

 

Preparation

O God, make speed to save us.

O Lord, make haste to help us.

 

Psalm 96

Sing to the Lord a new song; sing to the Lord, all the earth.

Sing to the Lord and bless his name; tell out his salvation from day to day.

Declare his glory among the nations and his wonders among all peoples.

For great is the Lord and greatly to be praised; he is more to be feared than all gods.

For all the gods of the nations are but idols; it is the Lord who made the heavens.

Honour and majesty are before him; power and splendour are in his sanctuary.

Ascribe to the Lord, you families of the peoples; ascribe to the Lord honour and strength.

Ascribe to the Lord the honour due to his name; bring offerings and come into his courts.

O Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness; let the whole earth tremble before him.

 

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.

 

 

 

 

Opening prayer

That this evening may be holy, good and peaceful, let us pray with one heart and mind.

As our evening prayer rises like incense before you, O God, so may your mercy come down upon us to cleanse our hearts and set us free to sing your praise now and for ever.

 

 

St. Matthew 28:16-20

Now the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain to which Jesus had directed them. When they saw him, they worshipped him; but some doubted. And Jesus came and said to them, ‘All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you. And remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age.’

 

 

Address

 

 

Anthem: A prayer of St. Columba

Be a bright flame before me, O God a guiding star above me. Be a smooth path below me, a kindly shepherd behind me today, tonight, and forever. Alone with none but you, my God I journey on my way; what need I fear when you are near, O Lord of night and day?

Let us bless the Lord.

Thanks be to God.

 

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.

Early summer puts on a glorious display of colour as plants burst vigorously into life. Grasses and wildflowers proliferate – given the chance. Lawns are frequently cut very regularly and very low, offering no refuge for insects or frogs, while wildflowers are deprived the chance of blooming and providing nectar and, later, seeds for insects and birds. Most gardens could support an unmown corner or edge. Paths mown through longer grass provide access to other parts of the garden and offer a beneficial alternative to vast expanses of bare lawn. In acknowledgement of our biodiversity crisis, tidy town groups, county councils etc. are veering away from “over tidiness” and are now mowing less often and creating wildflower patches. The latter are not to be confused with modern flower beds, but instead play host to native wildflowers that offer the best refuge and food supply for our beleaguered wildlife. The riot of colours, including pink clover, yellow buttercups, pink and purple vetches are uplifting to nature lovers. Let us all learn to appreciate the value and beauty of these unmown areas. Crucially, don’t use herbicides in your garden or along rural verges, both for the health of the environment and ourselves – “Roundup” residues are increasingly being recorded in human bodies.

This year’s Ecumenical Bible Week will be happening online. The programme consists of:

• Morning Prayer at 10pm on Tuesday 7 June organised by the Tallaght University Hospital Chaplaincy Team.
• Panel Discussion with New Irish from various ethnicities and nationalities about what the Holy Spirit is doing in their lives and communities on Wednesday 8 June at 7.30pm.
• A Symposium at 2pm on Thursday 9 June with presenters including Bishop Michael Burrows discussing how listening to the Word leads us to connect with those on the margins of society.
• Thinking Allowed at 7.30pm on Thursday 9pm with a panel of faith leaders including Archbishop Michael Jackson, Roman Catholic Archbishop Dermot Farrell and Amy Carey of the Solas Project. Panellists will speak about their personal visions of a New Pentecost.
• Sunday Worship from Inchicore Solid Rock Church led by Pastor Emmanuel Might. During this Ukrainian Priest Fr Vasyl Kornitsky will reflect on the readings.

To register for any or all of these events go to:

https://www.bibleweek.ie/register-for-2022-events/

The next meeting of the Friendship Group will take place on 20th June. This group is mainly composed of retired people who meet for a chat over a cup of tea or coffee. For further details please contact Linda Walsh on (086) 8228378.

Saturday morning bible studies take place in the Chester Beatty restaurant, at 9.30am. This is a joint venture with Ashford Roman Catholic parish.

Ken (and Lesley) will be on holidays from to 25th June to 1st July. In his absence, the service on 26th June will be led by Frank Connolly, a Diocesan lay reader. In the event of any pastoral emergency during that week, please contact the Revd Jack Kinkead.

Wednesday 25 May 2022: Evening Prayer

 

Rogation Day

 

PREPARATION

 

PREPARATION

O God, make speed to save us.

O Lord, make haste to help us.

 

My heart tells of your word, ‘Seek my face’.

Your face, Lord, will I seek.

 

Blessed are you, Lord of life.

You make light and darkness,

morning and evening, day and night,

and establish the stars in their heavenly courses.

As evening falls and creatures move on the face of the earth

may we take our rest,

and awake refreshed to praise you,

God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

Blessed be God for ever.

 

That this evening may be holy, good and peaceful,

let us pray with one heart and mind.

 

Silence

 

As our evening prayer rises before you, O God,

so may your mercy come upon us

to cleanse our hearts

and set us free to sing your praise

now and for ever. Amen.

 

THE WORD OF GOD

PSALM

Psalm 104: 1, 21-32

1  Bless the Lord, O my soul. ♦︎

O Lord my God, how excellent is your greatness!

21  You appointed the moon to mark the seasons, ♦︎

   and the sun knows the time for its setting.

22  You make darkness that it may be night, ♦︎

in which all the beasts of the forest creep forth.

23  The lions roar for their prey ♦︎

   and seek their food from God.

24  The sun rises and they are gone ♦︎

to lay themselves down in their dens.

25  People go forth to their work ♦︎

   and to their labour until the evening.

26  O Lord, how manifold are your works! ♦︎

In wisdom you have made them all;

the earth is full of your creatures.

27  There is the sea, spread far and wide, ♦︎

   and there move creatures beyond number, both small and great.

28  There go the ships, and there is that Leviathan ♦︎

which you have made to play in the deep.

29  All of these look to you ♦︎

   to give them their food in due season.

30  When you give it them, they gather it; ♦︎

you open your hand and they are filled with good.

31  When you hide your face they are troubled; ♦︎

   when you take away their breath,

      they die and return again to the dust.

32  When you send forth your spirit, they are created, ♦︎

and you renew the face of the earth.

 

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.

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.

 

A READING

Romans 8: 18-22

I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory about to be revealed to us. For the creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the children of God; for the creation was subjected to futility, not of its own will but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to decay and will obtain the freedom of the glory of the children of God. We know that the whole creation has been groaning in labour pains until now.

 

MEDITATION

 

THE GOSPEL CANTICLE

5  The Lord has shown strength· with his arm

6 casting down the mighty from their thrones

and sent the rich away empty.

8  He has come to the aid of his servant Israel.

to remember the promise of mercy,

9 The promise made to our forebears,

Glory to the Father, and to the Son,

and to the Holy Spirit;

and shall be for ever. Amen.

We ask in faith:

Hear us, good Lord.

 

We ask you to hear us, good Lord,

For the sake of your Son,

our Saviour Jesus Christ.

Amen.

your will be done,

on earth as in heaven.

Give us today our daily bread.

Wednesday 18th May 2022

Blessed be our God for all time, now and for evermore.
Amen

Glory to you, our God, glory be to you,
Holy Spirit, Comforter,
treasure of all goodness and giver of life,
come and dwell in us,
cleanse us from all sin,

Holy God, holy and strong,
holy and immortal,
have mercy on us.

PSALM 30
1 I will exalt you, O Lord,
because you have raised me up ♦︎
and have not let my foes triumph over me.
2 O Lord my God, I cried out to you ♦︎
and you have healed me.
3 You brought me up, O Lord, from the dead; ♦︎
you restored me to life from among those that go down to the Pit.
4 Sing to the Lord, you servants of his; ♦︎
give thanks to his holy name.
5 For his wrath endures but the twinkling of an eye,
his favour for a lifetime. ♦︎
Heaviness may endure for a night,
but joy comes in the morning.
6 In my prosperity I said,
‘I shall never be moved. ♦︎
You, Lord, of your goodness,
have made my hill so strong.’
7 Then you hid your face from me ♦︎
and I was utterly dismayed.
8 To you, O Lord, I cried; ♦︎
to the Lord I made my supplication:
9 ‘What profit is there in my blood,
if I go down to the Pit? ♦︎
Will the dust praise you or declare your faithfulness?
10 ‘Hear, O Lord, and have mercy upon me; ♦︎
O Lord, be my helper.’
11 You have turned my mourning into dancing; ♦︎
you have put off my sackcloth and girded me with gladness;
12 Therefore my heart sings to you without ceasing; ♦︎
O Lord my God, I will give you thanks for ever.
Glory be to the Father,
and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit;
as it was in the beginning,
is now and ever shall be for ever. Amen.

A READING
LUKE 10:25-28
Just then a lawyer stood up to test Jesus. ‘Teacher,’ he said, ‘what must I do to inherit
eternal life?’ He said to him, ‘What is written in the law? What do you read there?’ He
answered, ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul,
and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbour as yourself.’ And
he said to him, ‘You have given the right answer; do this, and you will live.’
