Collect<br />
Almighty God,<br />
by whose providence thy servant John Baptist<br />
was wonderfully born,<br />
and sent to prepare the way of thy Son our Saviour,<br />
by preaching of repentance:<br />
make us so to follow his doctrine and holy life,<br />
that we may truly repent according to his preaching<br />
and, after his example,<br />
constantly speak the truth,<br />
boldly rebuke vice<br />
and patiently suffer for the truth’s sake;<br />
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen<br />

A Reading from the Book of the Prophet Isaiah: Isaiah 40.1-11<br />
Comfort, O comfort my people, says your God.<br />
Speak tenderly to Jerusalem, and cry to her that she has served her term, that<br />
her penalty is paid, that she has received from the LORD’s hand double for all<br />
her sins.<br />
A voice cries out: ‘In the wilderness prepare the way of the LORD, make straight<br />
in the desert a highway for our God. Every valley shall be lifted up, and every<br />
mountain and hill be made low; the uneven ground shall become level, and the<br />
rough places a plain. Then the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all people<br />
shall see it together, for the mouth of the LORD has spoken.’<br />
A voice says, ‘Cry out!’ And I said, ‘What shall I cry?’ All people are grass, their<br />
constancy is like the flower of the field. The grass withers, the flower<br />
fades, when the breath of the LORD blows upon it; surely the people are grass.<br />
The grass withers, the flower fades; but the word of our God will stand for ever.<br />
Get you up to a high mountain, O Zion, herald of good tidings; lift up your voice<br />
with strength, O Jerusalem, herald of good tidings, lift it up, do not fear; say to<br />
the cities of Judah, ‘Here is your God!’ See, the Lord GOD comes with might, and<br />
his arm rules for him; his reward is with him, and his recompense before him.<br />
He will feed his flock like a shepherd; he will gather the lambs in his arms,<br />
and carry them in his bosom, and gently lead the mother sheep.<br />
Reader: This is the word of the Lord.<br />
Response: Thanks be to God.<br />
A Reading from the Acts of the Apostles: Acts 13.14b-26<br />
On the sabbath day Paul and his companions went into the synagogue and sat<br />
down. After the reading of the law and the prophets, the officials of the<br />
synagogue sent them a message, saying, ‘Brothers, if you have any word of<br />
exhortation for the people, give it.’ So Paul stood up and with a gesture began<br />
to speak:<br />
‘You Israelites, and others who fear God, listen. The God of this people Israel<br />
chose our ancestors and made the people great during their stay in the land of<br />
Egypt, and with uplifted arm he led them out of it. For about forty years he put<br />
up with them in the wilderness. After he had destroyed seven nations in the<br />
land of Canaan, he gave them their land as an inheritance for about four<br />
hundred and fifty years. After that he gave them judges until the time of the<br />
prophet Samuel. Then they asked for a king; and God gave them Saul son of<br />
Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, who reigned for forty years. When he had<br />
removed him, he made David their king. In his testimony about him he said, “I<br />
have found David, son of Jesse, to be a man after my heart, who will carry out<br />
all my wishes.” Of this man’s posterity God has brought to Israel a Saviour,<br />
Jesus, as he promised; before his coming John had already proclaimed a<br />
baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel. And as John was finishing his
work, he said, “What do you suppose that I am? I am not he. No, but one is<br />
coming after me; I am not worthy to untie the thong of the sandals on his<br />
feet.”<br />
‘My brothers, you descendants of Abraham’s family, and others who fear God,<br />
to us the message of this salvation has been sent.’<br />
Reader: This is the word of the Lord.<br />
Response: Thanks be to God.<br />
The Gospel Acclamation - Sung by all<br />
Choir:<br />
All:<br />
What then will this child become?’<br />
For, indeed, the hand of the Lord was with him.<br />
Alleluia.<br />
Hear the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to Luke: Luke 1.57-66, 80<br />
Response: Glory be to thee, O Lord<br />
The time came for Elizabeth to give birth, and she bore a son. Her neighbours<br />
and relatives heard that the Lord had shown his great mercy to her, and they<br />
rejoiced with her.<br />
On the eighth day they came to circumcise the child, and they were going to<br />
name him Zechariah after his father. But his mother said, ‘No; he is to be called<br />
John.’ They said to her, ‘None of your relatives has this name.’ Then they<br />
began motioning to his father to find out what name he wanted to give him.<br />
He asked for a writing-tablet and wrote, ‘His name is John.’ And all of them<br />
were amazed. Immediately his mouth was opened and his tongue freed, and<br />
he began to speak, praising God. Fear came over all their neighbours, and all<br />
these things were talked about throughout the entire hill country of Judea. All<br />
who heard them pondered them and said, ‘What then will this child become?’<br />
For, indeed, the hand of the Lord was with him.<br />
The child grew and became strong in spirit, and he was in the wilderness until<br />
the day he appeared publicly to Israel.<br />
Reader: This is the Gospel of the Lord.<br />
Response: Praise be to thee, O Christ.
