of Lent
18 February 2018
Collect
Almighty God,
whose Son Jesus Christ did fast forty days in the wilderness,
and was tempted as we are, yet without sin:
give us grace to discipline ourselves in obedience to thy Spirit;
and, as thou knowest our weakness,
so may we know thy power to save;
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen

Offertory Hymn 445 Rock of ages, cleft for me

A Reading from the Book of Genesis: Genesis 9.8-17
God said to Noah and to his sons with him, ‘As for me, I am establishing my
covenant with you and your descendants after you, and with every living
creature that is with you, the birds, the domestic animals, and every animal of
the earth with you, as many as came out of the ark. I establish my covenant
with you, that never again shall all flesh be cut off by the waters of a flood, and
never again shall there be a flood to destroy the earth.’ God said, ‘This is the
sign of the covenant that I make between me and you and every living creature
that is with you, for all future generations: I have set my bow in the clouds, and
it shall be a sign of the covenant between me and the earth. When I bring
clouds over the earth and the bow is seen in the clouds, I will remember my
covenant that is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and
the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh. When the bow
is in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between
God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth.’ God said to
Noah, ‘This is the sign of the covenant that I have established between me and
all flesh that is on the earth.’
Reader: This is the word of the Lord.
Response: Thanks be to God.
A Reading from the First Letter of Peter: 1 Peter 3.18-end
Christ also suffered for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, in
order to bring you to God. He was put to death in the flesh, but made alive in
the spirit, in which also he went and made a proclamation to the spirits in
prison, who in former times did not obey, when God waited patiently in the
days of Noah, during the building of the ark, in which a few, that is, eight
people, were saved through water. And baptism, which this prefigured, now
saves you—not as a removal of dirt from the body, but as an appeal to God for
a good conscience, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ, who has gone into
heaven and is at the right hand of God, with angels, authorities, and powers
made subject to him.
Reader: This is the word of the Lord.
Response: Thanks be to God.

The Gospel Acclamation - Sung by all
All:
Choir: We do not live by bread alone,
But by every word that comes from the mouth of God. Matthew 4.4
Praise to thee O Christ, King of Eternal Glory.
Hear the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to Mark: Mark 1.9-15
Response: Glory be to thee, O Lord
In those days Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized by John in
the Jordan. And just as he was coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens
torn apart and the Spirit descending like a dove on him. And a voice came from
heaven, ‘You are my Son, the Beloved; with you I am well pleased.’
And the Spirit immediately drove him out into the wilderness. He was in the
wilderness for forty days, tempted by Satan; and he was with the wild beasts;
and the angels waited on him.
Now 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.’
Reader: This is the Gospel of the Lord.
Response: Praise be to thee, O Christ.
Prayer after Communion
O Lord our God,
who hast renewed us with the living bread from heaven,
and dost thereby nourish our faith,
increase our hope,
and strengthen our love:
incline our hearts always to hunger for him
who is the true and living bread,
and give us grace to live by every word
that proceedeth out of thy mouth;
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen
