Song of Peace (Isaiah
2:2-5)
In the days to come
the mountain of the house of the Lord
shall tower as the highest of mountains.
and be raised above the hills.
There shall all the nations flow;
many peoples shall come and say,
"Let us go up to the mountain of the Lord,
to the house of the God of Jacob,
that he may teach us his ways
that we may walk in his paths.
For the law shall go out from Zion,
from Jerusalem the word of the Lord,
He shall judge between many nations
and decide for many peoples.
They shall beat their swords into ploughshares,
their spears into pruning knives.
nation shall not lift sword against nation;
they shall never train for war again.
O people of Jacob, come,
let us walk in the light of the Lord

The Collect for Peace
Let us pray,
Eternal God, who caused all holy scriptures to be written for our learning, grant us so to hear them, read, mark, learn, and inwardly digest them, that we may embrace and ever hold fast the blessed hope of everlasting life, which you have given us in our Saviour Jesus Christ, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

They shall grow not old,
as we who are left grow old.
Age shall not weary them,
nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun,
and in the morning we will remember them.
We will remember them.
O Canada
O Canada! Our home and native land!
True patriot love in all of us command.
With glowing hearts we see thee rise,
The true north strong and free!
From far and wide, O Canada,
we stand on guard for thee.
God keep our land glorious and free!
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
The Collect of the
Day
Let us pray,
Father of all, we pray to you for those we love, but see no longer. Grant them your peace, let light perpetual shine upon them, and in your loving wisdom and almighty power, work in them the good purpose of your perfect will; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
The
Proclamation of the Word
The Reading: Wisdom Of Solomon 3:1-9
The souls of the righteous are in the hand of God, and no torment will ever touch them. In the eyes of the foolish they seemed to have died, and their departure was thought to be a disaster, and their going from us to be their destruction; but they are at peace. For though in the sight of others they were punished, their hope is full of immortality. Having been disciplined a little, they will receive great good, because God tested them and found them worthy of himself; like gold in the furnace he tried them, and like a sacrificial burnt offering he accepted them. In the time of their visitation they will shine forth, and will run like sparks through the stubble. They will govern nations and rule over peoples, and the Lord will reign over them forever. Those who trust in him will understand truth, and the faithful will abide with him in love, because grace and mercy are upon his holy ones, and he watches over his elect.
For the Word of God in scripture, among us and with us.
Thanks be to God.
Gospel: John 6:37-40
And also with you.
The Holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to John.
Glory to you, Lord Jesus Christ.
Jesus said, "Everything that the Father gives me will come to me, and anyone who comes to me I will never drive away; for I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me. And this is the will of him who sent me, that I should lose nothing of all that he has given me, but raise it up on the last day. This is indeed the will of my Father, that all who see the Son and believe in him may have eternal life; and I will raise them up on the last day."
The Gospel of Christ.
Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.

Anthem: Dona Nobis Pacem
(Grant Us Your Peace) 16th century, arr. Hal Hopson
The
Prayers of the People
Generous God, you raise up the humble and poor; you inspire us to generosity and love: Hear us as we pray for all creation, saying: Hear our prayer.
Fill us
with generosity and faith, that we may reflect your loving compassion and grace
throughout creation. We pray for veterans of the Canadian Forces; and the
ministry of Forces chaplains. We pray this day for all members of the Forces
who are in danger, remembering family, friends and all who pray for their safe
return. God of love:
Hear our prayer.
We pray for civilian women, children and men whose lives are harmed by war or terror, calling to mind in penitence the anger and hatreds of humanity; we pray for peacemakers and peacekeepers, and all who seek to keep this world secure and free; God of love:
Hear our prayer.
O God, enlighten our leaders and all in authority to forego the appearance of piety, the abuse of privilege, and the selfishness of power, that they may lead generously on behalf of the humble. We pray for all who bear the burden and privilege of leadership, political, military and religious; asking for gifts of wisdom and resolve in the search for reconciliation and peace. God of love:
Hear our prayer.
You call all in our community to the responsibilities of stewardship and mutual care: Grant us everything necessary for our common life and the wisdom and generosity to use our resources so that no one may be in want. We pray for all who suffer as a result of conflict and ask that we may know peace: we pray for the service men and women who have died in war and for those who love them. God of love:
Hear our prayer.
You love the humble and needy: Be with all for whom we pray, for those we know who are ill at home or in the hospital, especially…
-
And others we may name out loud, or in our hearts…
-
… that they will find strength and healing, God of love:
Hear our prayer.
Receive into your eternal and glorious reign those who have died in your peace, especially:
… and we pray for all who mourn. God of love:
Hear our prayer.
O God of truth and justice, we hold before you those whose memory we cherish, and those whose names we will never know. Help us to lift our eyes above the torment of this broken world, and grant us the grace to pray for those who wish us harm. As we honour the past, may we put our faith in your future; for you are the source of life and hope, now and for ever. Amen.
Confession
and Absolution
Let us confess our sins, confident in God’s forgiveness.
Most
merciful God,
we confess that we have sinned against you in thought, word, and deed, by what we have done, and by what we have left undone. We have not loved you with our whole heart; we have not loved our neighbours as ourselves. We are truly sorry and we humbly repent. For the sake of your Son Jesus Christ, have mercy on us and forgive us, that we may delight in your will, and walk in your ways, to the glory of your name. Amen.
Almighty
God have mercy upon you,
pardon and deliver you from all your sins,
confirm and strengthen you in all goodness,
and keep you in eternal life; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
The Peace
The peace of the Lord be always with you.
And also with you.

The Prayer over the Gifts
Let us pray,
Gracious and righteous Lord, we are united in the love of Jesus Christ. Accept all we offer you this day, and bring us, with all your faithful people who have gone before us, into his eternal glory; who is Lord, now and for ever. Amen.
The Great
Thanksgiving: Eucharistic Prayer 3
And also with you.
Lift up your hearts.
We lift them to the Lord.
Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
It is right to give our thanks and praise.
Blessed are you, gracious God, creator of heaven and earth; we give you thanks and praise through Jesus Christ our Lord, whose victorious rising from the dead has given to us the hope of resurrection and the promise of eternal life.
Therefore
with angels and archangels and all who have served you in every age, we raise
our voices to proclaim the glory of your name.
Holy, holy, holy Lord,
God of power and might,
heaven and earth are full of your glory.
Hosanna in the highest.
Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.
Hosanna in the highest.
We
give thanks to you, Lord our God, for the goodness and love you have made known
to us in creation; in calling Israel to be your people; in your Word spoken
through the prophets; and above all in the Word made flesh, Jesus your Son.
For
in these last days you sent him to be incarnate from the Virgin Mary, to be the
Saviour and Redeemer of the world. In him, you have delivered us from evil, and
made us worthy to stand before you. In him, you have brought us out of error
into truth, out of sin into righteousness, out of death into life.
On
the night he was handed over to suffering and death, a death he freely
accepted, our Lord Jesus Christ took bread; and when he had given thanks to
you, he broke it, and gave it to his disciples, and said, “Take, eat: this is
my body which is given for you. Do this for the remembrance of me.”
After
supper he took the cup of wine; and when he had given thanks, he gave it to
them, and said, “Drink this, all of you: this is my blood of the new covenant,
which is shed for you and for many for the forgiveness of sins. Whenever you
drink it, do this for the remembrance of me.”
Therefore,
Father, according to his command,
we remember his death,
we proclaim his resurrection,
we await his coming in glory;
and we offer our sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving to you, Lord of all; presenting to you, from your creation, this bread and this wine.
We
pray you, gracious God, to send your Holy Spirit upon these gifts, that they
may be the sacrament of the body of Christ and his blood of the new covenant.
Unite us to your Son in his sacrifice, that we, made acceptable in him, may be
sanctified by the Holy Spirit.
In
the fullness of time, reconcile all things in Christ, and make them new, and
bring us to that city of light where you dwell with all your sons and
daughters; through Jesus Christ our Lord, the firstborn of all creation, the
head of the Church, and the author of our salvation;
by
whom, and with whom, and in whom, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, all honour
and glory are yours, almighty Father, now and for ever. Amen.
The Lord’s
Prayer
As our Saviour taught us, let us pray,
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Save us from the time of trial, and deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours, now and for ever. Amen.
The
Breaking of the Bread
Creator of all,
you gave us golden fields of wheat,
whose many grains we have gathered
and made into this one bread.
So may your Church be gathered
from the ends of the earth
into your kingdom.
The gifts of God for the People of God.
Thanks be to God.
Lamb of
God
Lamb of God you take away the sin of the world
have mercy on us.
Lamb of God you take away the sin of the world
have mercy on us.
Lamb of God you take away the sin of the world
grant us your peace.
