The Proclamation of the Word
A READING FROM THE BOOK OF AMOS
Read by Esma Brathwaite
This is what the Lord God showed me—a basket of summer fruit.
He said, “Amos, what do you see?” And I said, “A basket of
summer fruit.” Then the Lord said to me, “The end has come
upon my people Israel; I will never again pass them by. The songs
of the temple shall become wailings in that day,” says the Lord
God; “the dead bodies shall be many, cast out in every place. Be
silent!” Hear this, you that trample on the needy, and bring to ruin
the poor of the land, 5saying, “When will the new moon be over
so that we may sell grain; and the sabbath, so that we may offer
wheat for sale? We will make the ephah small and the shekel great,
and practise deceit with false balances, buying the poor for silver
and the needy for a pair of sandals, and selling the sweepings of
the wheat.” The Lord has sworn by the pride of Jacob: Surely I
will never forget any of their deeds. Shall not the land tremble on
this account, and everyone mourn who lives in it, and all of it rise
like the Nile, and be tossed about and sink again, like the Nile of
Egypt? On that day, says the Lord God, I will make the sun go
down at noon, and darken the earth in broad daylight. 10I will
turn your feasts into mourning, and all your songs into
lamentation; I will bring sackcloth on all loins, and baldness on
every head; I will make it like the mourning for an only son, and
the end of it like a bitter day. The time is surely coming, says the
Lord God, when I will send a famine on the land; not a famine of
bread, or a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord.
They shall wander from sea to sea, and from north to east; they
shall run to and fro, seeking the word of the Lord, but they shall
not find it. AMOS 8:1–12
The word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.
PSALM 52
You tyrant, why do you boast of wickedness
against the godly all day long?
You plot ruin; your tongue is like a sharpened razor,
O worker of deception.
You love evil more than good
and lying more than speaking the truth.
You love all words that hurt,
O you deceitful tongue.
Oh, that God would demolish you utterly, topple you,
and snatch you from your dwelling,
and root you out of the land of the living!
The righteous shall see and tremble,
and they shall laugh at him, saying,
“This is the one who did not take God for a refuge,
but trusted in great wealth and relied upon wickedness.”
3. But I am like a green olive tree
in the house of God;
I trust in the mercy of God for ever and ever.
I will give you thanks for what you have done
and declare the goodness of your Name in the presence
of the godly.
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.
A READING FROM THE LETTER OF PAUL TO THE COLOSSIANS
Read by Elizabeth Fowler
He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation;
for in him all things in heaven and on earth were created, things
visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or
powers—all things have been created through him and for him.
He himself is before all things, and in him all things hold together.
He is the head of the body, the church; he is the 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 through him God was pleased to reconcile to himself
all things, whether on earth or in heaven, by making peace
through the blood of his cross. And you who were once estranged
and hostile in mind, doing evil deeds, he has now reconciled in his
fleshly body through death, so as to present you holy and
blameless and irreproachable before him—provided that you
continue securely established and steadfast in the faith, without
shifting from the hope promised by the gospel that you heard,
which has been proclaimed to every creature under heaven. I,
Paul, became a servant of this gospel. I am now rejoicing in my
sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh I am completing what is
lacking in
Christ’s afflictions for the sake of his body, that is, the church. I
became its servant according to God’s commission that was given
to me for you, to make the word of God fully known, the
mystery that has been hidden throughout the ages and generations
but has now been revealed to his saints. To them God chose to
make known how great among the Gentiles are the riches of the
glory of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. It
is he whom we proclaim, warning everyone and teaching everyone
in all wisdom, so that we may present
everyone mature in Christ. COLOSSIANS 1:15–28
The word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

The Gospel
Gospeller: The Lord be with you.
All: And also with you.
Gospeller: The Holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ
according to Luke.
All: Glory be to thee, O Lord.
Now as they went on their way, he entered a certain village, where
a woman named Martha welcomed him into her home. She had a
sister named Mary, who sat at the Lord’s feet and
listened to what he was saying. But Martha was distracted by her
many tasks; so she came to him and asked, “Lord, do you not care
that my sister has left me to do all the work by myself?
Tell her then to help me.” But the Lord answered her, “Martha,
Martha, you are worried and distracted by many things; there is
need of only one thing. Mary has chosen the better part, which
will not be taken away from her.” LUKE 10:38–42
Gospeller: The Gospel of Christ:
All: Praise be to thee, O Christ.

Almighty God, Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Maker of
all things and judge of all people: We acknowledge and
confess our manifold sins and wickedness, Which from time
to time most grievously have committed, By thought, word
and deed, Against thy divine majesty. We do earnestly
repent, and are heartily sorry for these our misdoings. Have
mercy upon us, most merciful Father; For thy Son our Lord
Jesus Christ’s sake, Forgive us all that is past; And grant
that we may ever hereafter serve and please thee In newness
of life, To the honour and glory of thy name; Through Jesus
Christ our Lord. Amen.
