Christ the King Episcopal Church

The Feast of the Transfiguration (Transferred from August 6)

Holy Eucharist, Rite II August 9, 2020

10:30 am

Welcome to Christ the King Episcopal Church! If you are a seasonal guest, we are delighted that you found your way to the “church in the wildwood” and we invite you to consider Christ the King as your church home away from home. If you live in the area and do not have a church home, we invite you to journey with us as followers of Christ in this wonderful community! A note about our worship service: We understand that newcomers to the Episcopal Church might be a little lost during the worship service. Don’t worry – you are in good company! Many of us did not grow up in the Episcopal Church, but were drawn to the way that our worship feels simultaneously ancient and contemporary. So if you are unfamiliar with the ritual customs of the Episcopal Church, simply relax with the liturgy and let the rest of the congregation carry you in worship. It is most important that you experience the sights, sounds, and silence of our worship service. The worship bulletin contains the scripture lessons for the day, and points you to page numbers in the red Book of Common Prayer (BCP), which is found in your pew rack. At the 10:30 service, hymns are found in the blue Hymnal 1982, which is also in the pew rack. There are pamphlets in the pamphlet rack in the church narthex (lobby) that give helpful information about the Episcopal Church. Feel free to pick some up and read through them. The Transfiguration of Our Lord Jesus Christ God authenticated Jesus as God’s Son in a series of supernatural manifestations. The Transfiguration is one in that series and, therefore, not to be taken only as a spiritual experience for Jesus, witnessed by Peter, James, and John. The Transfiguration fits with angels’ appearing at Jesus’ birth and resurrection and with the Spirit’s descent at Jesus’ baptism. In the Transfiguration, according to the Gospel of Matthew, the veil is drawn aside, and, again, a few witness Jesus as the earth-born son of Mary and as the eternal Son of God. In Luke’s account a cloud, a sign of divine presence, envelops the disciples, and a heavenly voice proclaims Jesus to be the Son of God.

The First Lesson (seated) Exodus 34:29-35

Moses came down from Mount Sinai. As he came down from the mountain with the two tablets of the covenant in his hand, Moses did not know that the skin of his face shone because he had been talking with God. When Aaron and all the Israelites saw Moses, the skin of his face was shining, and they were afraid to come near him. But Moses called to them; and Aaron and all the leaders of the congregation returned to him, and Moses spoke with them. Afterward all the Israelites came near, and he gave them in commandment all that the Lordhad spoken with him on Mount Sinai. When Moses had finished speaking with them, he put a veil on his face; but whenever Moses went in before the Lord to speak with him, he would take the veil off, until he came out; and when he came out, and told the Israelites what he had been commanded, the Israelites would see the face of Moses, that the skin of his face was shining; and Moses would put the veil on his face again, until he went in to speak with him.

Lector The word of the Lord. People Thanks be to God.

The Gospel Lesson Luke 9:28-36

Gospeler The Holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to Luke. People Glory to you Lord Christ.

Jesus took with him Peter and John and James, and went up on the mountain to pray. And while he was praying, the appearance of his face changed, and his clothes became dazzling white. Suddenly they saw two men, Moses and Elijah, talking to him. They appeared in glory and were speaking of his departure, which he was about to accomplish at Jerusalem. Now Peter and his companions were weighed down with sleep; but since they had stayed awake, they saw his glory and the two men who stood with him. Just as they were leaving him, Peter said to Jesus, “Master, it is good for us to be here; let us make three dwellings, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah” —not knowing what he said. While he was saying this, a cloud came and overshadowed them; and they were terrified as they entered the cloud. Then from the cloud came a voice that said, “This is my Son, my Chosen; listen to him!” When the voice had spoken, Jesus was found alone. And they kept silent and in those days told no one any of the things they had seen.

Gospeler The Gospel of the Lord. People Praise to you Lord Christ.

Christ the King Core Values

1) Worship: Our worship is grounded in the traditional Anglican triad of scripture, tradition, and reason. Our lovely space, liturgy, and music help focus our hearts and minds on a God who is at the same time in this world and beyond. 2) Outreach: At the end of our worship services, we are dismissed with the words, “Go in peace to love and serve the Lord.” We seek to do so by being in solidarity with those in need in our local, diocesan, and global communities by providing both hands-on and financial support. 3) Community: While our worship is directed towards loving God, and our outreach is directed towards loving our neighbors, we also value the relationships we have within our own parish family. A sense of belonging, feeling connected, and loving and caring for one another is a large part of who we are and what makes Christ the King feel special. 4) Christian Formation: We value the lifelong formation and development of our spiritual, intellectual, and social selves. Whether it is at the Tree House Episcopal Montessori School, Sunday forums, or weekday small groups, we believe that God calls us to be lifelong learners. 5) Strategic Growth: Our growth strategy is focused on nurturing disciples not adding members. While we take seriously Jesus’ command to “go and make disciples,” we recognize any growth must take into account our stewardship of our physical plant as well as our ability to remain meaningfully connected with one another.
