A Reading from the Book of Proverbs:<br />
Proverbs 8.1,22-31<br />
Does not wisdom call,<br />
and does not understanding raise her voice?<br />
The LORD created me at the beginning of his work,<br />
the first of his acts of long ago.<br />
Ages ago I was set up,<br />
at the first, before the beginning of the earth.<br />
When there were no depths I was brought forth,<br />
when there were no springs abounding with water.<br />
Before the mountains had been shaped,<br />
before the hills, I was brought forth—<br />
when he had not yet made earth and fields,<br />
or the world’s first bits of soil.<br />
When he established the heavens, I was there,<br />
when he drew a circle on the face of the deep,<br />
when he made firm the skies above,<br />
when he established the fountains of the deep,<br />
when he assigned to the sea its limit,<br />
so that the waters might not transgress his command,<br />
when he marked out the foundations of the earth,<br />
then I was beside him, like a master worker;<br />
and I was daily his delight,<br />
rejoicing before him always,<br />
rejoicing in his inhabited world<br />
and delighting in the human race.<br />
Reader: This is the word of the Lord.<br />
Response: Thanks be to God.<br />
A Reading from the Letter of Paul to the Colossians:<br />
Colossians 1.15-20<br />
Christ is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation; for in him<br />
all things in heaven and on earth were created, things visible and invisible,<br />
whether thrones or dominions or rulers or powers—all things have been<br />
created through him and for him. He himself is before all things, and in him all<br />
things hold together. He is the head of the body, the church; he is the<br />
beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that he might come to have first
place in everything. For in him all the fullness of God was pleased to dwell, and<br />
through him God was pleased to reconcile to himself all things, whether on<br />
earth or in heaven, by making peace through the blood of his cross.<br />
Reader: This is the word of the Lord.<br />
Response: Thanks be to God.<br />
The Gospel - Sung by all<br />
Choir: God has spoken to us by the Son,<br />
through whom he created the worlds. Hebrews 1.2<br />
All: Alleluia, Alleluia….<br />
Hear the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to John:<br />
Response: Glory to you, O Lord<br />
John 1.1-14<br />
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word<br />
was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through<br />
him, and without him not one thing came into being. What has come into<br />
being in him was life, and the life was the light of all people. The light shines in<br />
the darkness, and the darkness did not overcome it.<br />
There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. He came as a witness<br />
to testify to the light, so that all might believe through him. He himself was not<br />
the light, but he came to testify to the light. The true light, which enlightens<br />
everyone, was coming into the world.<br />
He was in the world, and the world came into being through him; yet the world<br />
did not know him. He came to what was his own, and his own people did not<br />
accept him. But to all who received him, who believed in his name, he gave<br />
power to become children of God, who were born, not of blood or of the will<br />
of the flesh or of the will of man, but of God.<br />
And the Word became flesh and lived among us, and we have seen his glory,<br />
the glory as of a father’s only son, full of grace and truth.<br />
Reader: This is the Gospel of the Lord.<br />
Response: Praise to you, O Christ.

Prayer for the <strong>Pew</strong> <strong>Leaflet</strong><br />
Let us light a candle in the darkness,<br />
In the face of death, a sign of life.<br />
As a sign of hope where all seems hopeless,<br />
As a sign of peace in place of strife.<br />
For the light is stronger than the darkness<br />
And the day will over come the night.<br />
Though the shadows linger all around us,<br />
Let us turn our faces to the light.<br />
Richard Shepherd
