Opening Hymn: Verses 1, 3-4
First Reading: Genesis 29:15-28
Then
Laban said to Jacob, “Because you are my kinsman, should you therefore serve me
for nothing? Tell me, what shall your wages be?” 16Now Laban had two
daughters; the name of the elder was Leah, and the name of the younger was
Rachel. 17Leah’s eyes were lovely, and Rachel was graceful and
beautiful. 18Jacob loved Rachel; so he said, “I will serve you seven
years for your younger daughter Rachel.” 19Laban said, “It is better
that I give her to you than that I should give her to any other man; stay with
me.” 20So Jacob served seven years for Rachel, and they seemed to
him but a few days because of the love he had for her. 21Then Jacob
said to Laban, “Give me my wife that I may go in to her, for my time is
completed.” 22So Laban gathered together all the people of the
place, and made a feast. 23But in the evening he took his daughter
Leah and brought her to Jacob; and he went in to her. 24(Laban gave
his maid Zilpah to his daughter Leah to be her maid.) 25When morning
came, it was Leah! And Jacob said to Laban, “What is this you have done to me?
Did I not serve with you for Rachel? Why then have you deceived me?” 26Laban
said, “This is not done in our country—giving the younger before the firstborn.
27Complete the week of this one, and we will give you the other also
in return for serving me another seven years.” 28Jacob did so, and
completed her week; then Laban gave him his daughter Rachel as a wife.
L Word of hope, word of life. Thanks
be to God
Psalm 119:129-136
(read responsively)
129Your
decrees are wonderful; therefore my soul keeps them.
130The
unfolding of your words gives light; it imparts understanding to the simple.
131With
open mouth I pant, because I long for your commandments. 132Turn to me and be gracious to
me, as is your custom toward those who love your name.
133Keep my
steps steady according to your promise, and never let iniquity have dominion
over me.
134Redeem
me from human oppression, that I may keep your precepts.
135Make your
face shine upon your servant, and teach me your statutes.
136My eyes
shed streams of tears because your law is not kept.
Second Reading: Romans 8:26-39
Likewise
the Spirit helps us in our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we
ought, but that very Spirit intercedes with sighs too deep for words. 27And
God, who searches the heart, knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the
Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God. 28We
know that all things work together for good for those who love God, who are
called according to his purpose.
29For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be
conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn
within a large family. 30And those whom he predestined he also
called; and those whom he called he also justified; and those whom he justified
he also glorified.
31What then are we to say about these things? If God is
for us, who is against us? 32He who did not withhold his own Son,
but gave him up for all of us, will he not with him also give us everything
else? 33Who will bring any charge against God’s elect? It is God who
justifies. 34Who is to condemn? It is Christ Jesus, who died, yes,
who was raised, who is at the right hand of God, who indeed intercedes for us. 35Who
will separate us from the love of Christ? Will hardship, or distress, or
persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 36As it is
written, “For your sake we are being killed all day long; we are accounted as
sheep to be slaughtered.” 37No, in all these things we are more than
conquerors through him who loved us. 38For I am convinced that
neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor rulers, nor things present, nor things
to come, nor powers, 39nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in
all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus
our Lord.
L Word of hope, word of life. Thanks
be to God

Gospel Reading: Matthew 13:44-52
“The
kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which someone found and
hid; then in his joy he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field. 45“Again,
the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant in search of fine pearls; 46on
finding one pearl of great value, he went and sold all that he had and bought
it. 47“Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was thrown
into the sea and caught fish of every kind; 48when it was full, they
drew it ashore, sat down, and put the good into baskets but threw out the bad. 49So
it will be at the end of the age. The angels will come out and separate the
evil from the righteous 50and throw them into the furnace of fire,
where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 51“Have you
understood all this?” They answered, “Yes.” 52And he said to them,
“Therefore every scribe who has been trained for the kingdom of heaven is like
the master of a household who brings out of his treasure what is new and what
is old.”
The gospel of the Lord. Praise
to you, O Christ.
Sermon: Silence for reflection follows the sermon. The assembly stands to proclaim the word of
God in song.
Hymn of the Day:
Prayers of Intercession
A During this season of Pentecost, we pray that
the Holy Spirit will bring understanding, inspiration and health to the church,

Center and all who have created families.

God,
guide our civic leaders and enable them to be good stewards of public trust,
resources and properties. Be with our
bishops Elizabeth and Mark, our pastor Megan and all the staff and leaders of
our congregation. God in your mercy, hear our prayer.
We
give thanks for all who work in healing and caring professions. Support doctors, nurses, partners, parents
and friends who love and support others.
Provide healing and hope for those whose minds, bodies or spirits are in
need of care. Help us to live as fully
as we can as we await the day all pain and suffering will end. God in your mercy, hear our prayer.

whom and what else do the people of Grace pray?
(Please offer - silently or aloud- petitions
to God. End spoken petitions with “God
in your mercy.”)
P
Our prayers rise like incense and are held by a loving God who yearns for us to

other in the peace of the risen Christ.

And also with you.

gathered, the assembly stands.
A Let us
pray. God, bless all that we have to offer. May our financial support
match the generosity of our lives. Help
us to be good stewards of our financial and emotional investments. Amen.
Communion:
P It is indeed right, our duty and our joy,
that we should at all times and in all places give thanks and praise . . . we
praise your name and join their unending hymn:
P On the night in which he was betrayed, our
Lord Jesus took bread, and gave thanks; broke it, and gave it to his disciples,
saying: Take and eat; this is my body, given for you. Do this for the
remembrance of me.
Again, after supper, he took
the cup, gave thanks, and gave it for all to drink, saying: This cup is the new
covenant in my blood, shed for you and for all people for the forgiveness of
sin. Do this for the remembrance of me.
The Lord’s Prayer: (This version is from the New
Zealand Prayer Book)
Eternal Spirit,
Earth-maker, Pain-bearer, Life-giver,
Source of all that is and that shall be,
Father and Mother of us all,
Loving God, in whom is heaven:
The hallowing of your name echo through the universe!
The way of your justice be followed by the peoples of the world!
Your heavenly will be done by all created beings!
Your commonwealth of peace and freedom
sustain our hope and come on earth.
With the bread we need for today, feed us.
In the hurts we absorb from one another, forgive us.
In times of temptation and testing, strengthen us.
From trials too great to endure, spare us.
From the grip of all that is evil, free us.
For you reign in the glory of the power that is love,
now and forever. Amen.

First Reading: Genesis 28:10-19
10Jacob left
Beer-sheba and went toward Haran. 11He came to a certain place and
stayed there for the night, because the sun had set. Taking one of the stones
of the place, he put it under his head and lay down in that place. 12And
he dreamed that there was a ladder set up on the earth, the top of it reaching
to heaven; and the angels of God were ascending and descending on it. 13And
the Lord stood beside him and said, “I am the Lord, the God of Abraham your
father and the God of Isaac; the land on which you lie I will give to you and
to your offspring; 14and your offspring shall be like the dust of
the earth, and you shall spread abroad to the west and to the east and to the
north and to the south; and all the families of the earth shall be blessed in
you and in your offspring. 15Know that I am with you and will keep
you wherever you go, and will bring you back to this land; for I will not leave
you until I have done what I have promised you.”
16Then Jacob
woke from his sleep and said, “Surely the Lord is in this place—and I did not
know it!” 17And he was afraid, and said, “How awesome is this place!
This is none other than the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven.” 18So
Jacob rose early in the morning, and he took the stone that he had put under
his head and set it up for a pillar and poured oil on the top of it. 19He
called that place Bethel…

Psalm 86:11-17
(read responsively)
Teach
me your way, O Lord, that I may walk in your truth; give me an undivided heart
to revere your name.
12I give
thanks to you, O Lord my God, with my whole heart, and I will glorify your name
forever.
13For great is your
steadfast love toward me; you have delivered my soul from the depths of
Sheol. 14O God, the insolent
rise up against me; a band of ruffians seeks my life, and they do not set you
before them.
15But you, O
Lord, are a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast
love and faithfulness.
16Turn to me and be
gracious to me; give your strength to your servant; save the child of your
serving girl.
17Show me a
sign of your favor, so that those who hate me may see it and be put to shame,
because you, Lord, have helped me and comforted me.
Second Reading: Romans 8:12-25
So then, brothers and sisters, we
are debtors, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh— 13for
if you live according to the flesh, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put
to death the deeds of the body, you will live. 14For all who are led
by the Spirit of God are children of God. 15For you did not receive
a spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received a spirit of
adoption. When we cry, “Abba! Father!” 16it is that very Spirit
bearing witness with our spirit that we are children of God, 17and
if children, then heirs, heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ—if, in fact,
we suffer with him so that we may also be glorified with him. 18I
consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with
the glory about to be revealed to us. 19For the creation waits with
eager longing for the revealing of the children of God; 20for the
creation was subjected to futility, not of its own will but by the will of the
one who subjected it, in hope 21that 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. 22We know that the whole creation has been groaning
in labor pains until now; 23and not only the creation, but we
ourselves, who have the first fruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly while we
wait for adoption, the redemption of our bodies. 24For in hope we were
saved. Now hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for what is seen? 25But
if we hope for what we do not see, we wait for it with patience.
L Word of hope, word of life. Thanks
be to God
Duet: "Come,
Thou Holy Spirit" J. J.
Rousseau MaryAnn Dale and SallyAnn
Ryan
Gospel Reading: Matthew 13:24-43
24Jesus put
before them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven may be compared to someone
who sowed good seed in his field; 25but while everybody was asleep,
an enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and then went away. 26So
when the plants came up and bore grain, then the weeds appeared as well. 27And
the slaves of the householder came and said to him, ‘Master, did you not sow
good seed in your field? Where, then, did these weeds come from?’ 28He
answered, ‘An enemy has done this.’ The slaves said to him, ‘Then do you want
us to go and gather them?’ 29But he replied, ‘No; for in gathering
the weeds you would uproot the wheat along with them. 30Let both of
them grow together until the harvest; and at harvest time I will tell the
reapers, Collect the weeds first and bind them in bundles to be burned, but
gather the wheat into my barn.’”
31He put
before them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed that
someone took and sowed in his field; 32it is the smallest of all the
seeds, but when it has grown it is the greatest of shrubs and becomes a tree,
so that the birds of the air come and make nests in its branches.” 33He
told them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like yeast that a woman
took and mixed in with three measures of flour until all of it was leavened.”
34Jesus told
the crowds all these things in parables; without a parable he told them nothing.
35This was to fulfill what had been spoken through the prophet: “I
will open my mouth to speak in parables; I will proclaim what has been hidden
from the foundation of the world.” 36Then he left the crowds and
went into the house. And his disciples approached him, saying,
“Explain to us the parable of the
weeds of the field.” 37He answered, “The one who sows the good seed
is me; 38the field is the world, and the good seed are the children
of the kin-dom; the weeds are the children of the evil one, 39and
the enemy who sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the age, and
the reapers are angels. 40Just as the weeds are collected and burned
up with fire, so will it be at the end of the age. 41I will send my
angels, and they will collect out of his kingdom all causes of sin and all
evildoers, 42and they will throw them into the furnace of fire,
where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 43Then the
righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Let anyone
with ears listen!
The gospel of the Lord. Praise
to you, O Christ.
