Samuel went to Ramah; and Saul went up to his house in Gibeah of Saul. Samuel did not see Saul again until the day of his death, but Samuel grieved over Saul. And the LORD was sorry that he had made Saul king over Israel. The Lord said to Samuel, “How long will you grieve over Saul? I have rejected him from being king over Israel. Fill your horn with oil and set out; I will send you to Jesse the Bethlehemite, for I have provided for myself a king among his sons.” Samuel said, “How can I go? If Saul hears of it, he will kill me.” And the Lord said, “Take a heifer with you, and say, `I have come to sacrifice to the Lord.’ Invite Jesse to the sacrifice, and I will show you what you shall do; and you shall anoint for me the one whom I name to you.” Samuel did what the Lord commanded, and came to Bethlehem. The elders of the city came to meet him trembling, and said, “Do you come peaceably?” He said, “Peaceably; I have

come to sacrifice to the Lord; sanctify yourselves and come with me to the sacrifice.” And he sanctified Jesse and his sons and invited them to the sacrifice. When they came, he looked on Eliab and thought, “Surely the Lord’s anointed is now before the Lord.” But the Lord said to Samuel, “Do not look on his appearance or on the height of his stature, because I have rejected him; for the Lord does not see as mortals see; they look on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the heart.” Then Jesse called Abinadab, and made him pass before Samuel. He said, “Neither has the Lord chosen this one.” Then Jesse made Shammah pass by. And he said, “Neither has the Lord chosen this one.” Jesse made seven of his sons pass before Samuel, and Samuel said to Jesse, “The Lord has not chosen any of these.” Samuel said to Jesse, “Are all your sons here?” And he said, “There remains yet the youngest, but he is keeping

Collect for the Third Sunday after Pentecost

The Word of God

Keep, O Lord, your household the Church in your steadfast faith and love, that through your grace we may proclaim your truth with boldness, and minister your justice with compassion; for the sake of our Savior Jesus Christ, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever.

It is a good thing to give thanks to the / LORD, * and to sing praises to your / Name, O Most High;To tell of your loving-kindness early in the / morning * and of your faithfulness in / the night season;On the psaltery, and on the / lyre, * and to the melo / dy of the harp.For you have made me glad by your acts, O / LORD; * and I shout for joy because of the / works of your hands.The righteous shall flourish like a / palm tree, * and shall spread abroad like a ce / dar of Lebanon.Those who are planted in the house of the / LORD * shall flourish in the / courts of our God;They shall still bear fruit in / old age; * they shall be / green and succulent;That they may show how upright the / LORD is, * my Rock, in /whom there is no fault.

this is the one.” Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the presence of his brothers; and the spirit of the Lord came mightily upon David from that day forward. Samuel then set out and went to Ramah.

Alleluia Verse • sung by cantor, then all

We are always confident; even though we know that while we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord-- for we walk by faith, not by sight. Yes, we do have confidence, and we would rather be away from the body and at home with the Lord. So whether we are at home or away, we make it our aim to please him. For all of us must appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each may receive recompense for what has been done in the body, whether good or evil. Therefore, knowing the fear of the Lord, we try to persuade others; but we ourselves are well known to God, and I hope that we are also well known to your consciences. We are not commending ourselves to you again, but giving you an opportunity to boast about us, so

Second Lesson 2 Corinthians 5:6-17that you may be able to answer those who boast in outward appearance and not in the heart. For if we are beside ourselves, it is for God; if we are in our right mind, it is for you. For the love of Christ urges us on, because we are convinced that one has died for all; therefore all have died. And he died for all, so that those who live might live no longer for themselves, but for him who died and was raised for them. From now on, therefore, we regard no one from a human point of view; even though we once knew Christ from a human point of view, we know him no longer in that way. So if anyone is in Christ, there is a new creation: everything old has passed away; see, everything has become new!

The Word of the Lord.Thanks be to God.

Gospel Mark 4:26-34

Jesus said, “The kingdom of God is as if someone would scatter seed on the ground, and would sleep and rise night and day, and the seed would sprout and grow, he does not know how. The earth produces of itself, first the stalk, then the head, then the full grain in the head. But when the grain is ripe, at once he goes in with his sickle, because the harvest has come.” He also said, “With what can we compare the kingdom of God, or what parable will we use for it? It is like a

mustard seed, which, when sown upon the ground, is the smallest of all the seeds on earth; yet when it is sown it grows up and becomes the greatest of all shrubs, and puts forth large branches, so that the birds of the air can make nests in its shade.” With many such parables he spoke the word to them, as they were able to hear it; he did not speak to them except in parables, but he explained everything in private to his disciples.

Come thou, Lord, creator spirit, tune the humble heart to thee.From the flame of love now kindle flame in spirits born for thee.Thou the father of thy children; thou the orb of liberty.Thou the treasure we do cherish; thou our hope and destiny.Come thou, Lord, in all thy splendor, let the wall of temple ring.Seraphs’ cry allow to render clear the anthem we would sing.Thou so mighty now recover for thyself thy majesty.Thou, so gentle, now deliver for thyself thy people free.

Postlude

The worship is concluded. The SERVICE begins!

Dismissal Let us go forth into the world rejoicing in the power of the Spirit. Thanks be to God.

My dear people of Christ Church Cathedral and our Guests,

Today, over an extended Coffee Hour, we will share an exciting conversation—about the ways that we can all be involved in making a stronger Cathedral through the Cathedral Endowment. Bishop White has this in mind when he and Linda Sue make their annual gift to the Endowment. He has explained to me on a number of occasions that the size of a gift is not what is important. It is the act of giving it that makes a difference—not only to the Endowment, but to the giver, as well.

Carter Ruml, our special guest has made a life of helping folks like us figure out how to make a difference with our resources. I look forward to hearing what he has to say to us today. Join me in Bishops’ Hall following the service for good food and even better company and conversation.

We have a busy summer before us. In addition to regular Sunday worship and study, weekday Midday Mass, Evening Prayer and Bible Study, plan also to be part of our life of strong ministries:

• Kentuckiana Pride Parade—this Friday evening• Gospel Music Sunday—next Sunday, as we celebrate Father’s Day• CLAIM COMMON GROUND AGAINST GUN VIOLENCE WALK—with other Kentucky Episcopalians on Sunday, June 28 at 2:00 (beginning with prayer at the Cathedral, concluding at Our Merciful Savior)• Community Breakfast—Sundays, July 5, August 2, and September 6 in Bishops’ Hall• Children’s Ministry Work Day—date to be announced• Children’s Sunday School Sneak Peek (for parents and other adults)—Sunday, August 16, 9:15 in Dean’s Hall (children will enjoy their own activities during that time)• Homecoming Sunday—September 13

Make time for any or all of these opportunities.

As you prepare for worship today—and for sharing your time, talent and treasure, consider these words of Jane Regan:

I learned about affluence. After sharing my food, I am not thinner. After sharing my plants, I still have too many. After sharing my resources, I am not poor. After sharing my life, I am much richer.

I’m glad you are here today

we study

Enriching Our Worship continues throughout the summerEnriching Our Worship (EOW),is a Eucharistic Prayer produced by the National Church Standing Liturgical Commission in 1998, and later approved for use by General Convention. It will not be new to you, because the Cathedral has used it before. In EOW, you will recognize the familiar shape of the Eucharistic prayer that we hear every Sunday: the Sursum Corda (‘the Lord be with you; and also with you’ ...), the Sanctus (‘Holy, holy, holy’ ...) and the Great AMEN. If you have not experienced EOW, you might enjoy its simplicity.

Evening PrayerMonday – Friday, 6 p.m., in the Chapel.

Stewardship NotesWe are blessed and we can BE a blessingThe Cathedral has received 88 pledges, totaling $300,000. That represents: • 33 increased pledges • 14 new pledges • 33 pledges with no change • 8 pledges with decreases

The goal remains 100 percent participation. If you have not registered your intention to give to God through Christ Church Cathedral, there’s still time. No amount is too large and no amount is too small. They all make a difference. If you have questions, this handy Q and A might help:

How do I get a Pledge Card?There are Pledge Cards in the Narthex, at the south door, and at the office table. Just ask if you can’t find one.

How can I submit a Pledge Card? You may mail in your Pledge Card, place it in the offering basin as it is passed any Sunday morning, or you may give it to a member of the Chapter, the Finance Committee, or to the Dean.

How can I help even more?You can continue to pray with us. Try these words: God of infinite blessing, when you fashioned the world the morning stars sang together and the host of heaven shouted for joy; open our eyes to the wonders of your creation and teach us to use all things for good, that we may be blessed and be a blessing so that all may live in your abundance; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Why do we pray, study, work, listen and build?Benedict, the father of Benedictine spirituality, suggested that our life is best balanced between prayer, study, and work. We have taken that challenge as the basis of our common life together at Christ Church Cathedral:

We pray (worship and the arts). We study (spiritual formation). We work (service to others).

In addition, we know that we are sustained by our life together, and that works best when we listen to one another. We also aim to build and maintain a structure that will support all of our ministry efforts. And so:

We listen (cathedral life and fellowship), We build (administration).

In Cathedral Matters, you will find information about ministry opportunities at the Cathedral which fit into all five of these areas. Under each of the five main categories you will see what is new to the listing for this week. You will notice that some paragraphs repeat weekly, so that our guests won’t miss any news.

You are urged to take your Cathedral Matters home with you so that you will have it for ready reference. Now, read about our ministry, think about how you would like to be involved...and jump right in!
