Welcome to the Episcopal Church of Our Saviour. We are glad that you are here with us today.
Everyone is welcome to receive Communion in our church regardless of your denominational background.
Collect of the Day
Almighty and everlasting God, you have given to us your
servants grace, by the confession of a true faith, to
acknowledge the glory of the eternal Trinity, and in the power
of your divine Majesty to worship the Unity: Keep us stead-
fast in this faith and worship, and bring us at last to see you in
your one and eternal glory, O Father; who with the Son and
the Holy Spirit live and reign, one God, for ever and ever.
Amen.
Read by Olivette Guy-Williams in Krio of Sierra Leone
First Reading Isaiah 6: 1-8
Pew Bible, Old Testament, p. 492
1 Ascribe to the LORD, you gods, *
ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.
2 Ascribe to the LORD the glory due his Name; *
worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.
3 The voice of the LORD is upon the waters;
the God of glory thunders; *
the LORD is upon the mighty waters.
4 The voice of the LORD is a powerful voice; *
the voice of the LORD is a voice of splendor.
5 The voice of the LORD breaks the cedar trees; *
the LORD breaks the cedars of Lebanon;
6 He makes Lebanon skip like a calf, *
and Mount Hermon like a young wild ox.
7 The voice of the LORD splits the flames of fire;
the voice of the LORD shakes the wilderness; *
the LORD shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.
8 The voice of the LORD makes the oak trees writhe *
and strips the forests bare.
9 And in the temple of the LORD *
all are crying, "Glory!"
10 The LORD sits enthroned above the flood; *
the LORD sits enthroned as King for evermore.
11 The LORD shall give strength to his people; *
the LORD shall give his people the blessing of peace.

Dear COS Congregation,
We greet you in the name of our Risen Lord, Jesus Christ. Blessings upon you and yours!
As always, our sincere thanks to you for your commitment to Church of Our Saviour for the 2015 program year,
and for your ongoing support for the work of our church and its mission. This is an exciting time in the life of our
church. Your support has enabled us to:
Hire a full time administrative assistant. Tracey Henley started work here in February and has al-
ready become a voice of calm, welcome and order in our church office, the hub of all we do here. The
office is now open Monday through Friday, 9 am to 5 pm.
Call The Rev Francisco Valle to join us as Assistant Priest, and Dr. Robert Phillips to serve as our
Intern.
Start a much-needed youth program beginning in the Fall of 2015.
However, as of this writing, we are below the budget that was passed by the Vestry to meet all our obligations and
commitments for this program year.
To bridge this temporary shortfall, we, the Stewardship Commission of Church of Our Saviour, are proposing a
‘mini campaign’ called “Count Me In!” Consider:
If each of us raises our existing pledge by just $5 per week, we will be able to fully fund our mission for
2015. If you are able to make this commitment, we would be most grateful.
We thank you as always, and pray for God’s blessings upon you.
We, the undersigned, hope you will prayerfully reflect on the importance of funding our church’s mission. Please
use the enclosed envelope to join us in saying “Count Me In!”
Can we count you in?
I’m In! Reverend Dr. Robert Harvey I’m In! Sade Adegoroye (Stewardship)
I’m in! Norma Beaton (Stewardship) I’m In! Elizabeth Adegboyega-Panox (Stewardship)
I’m in! Chinasa Ifeayekwu (Stewardship) I’m in! Ken Egbuna (Stewardship)
I’m In! Hector Davies-Cole (Stewardship) I’m In! Augusta Robinson (Stewardship)

Many thanks to those who have pledged their financial commitments to the
church for 2015.
If you have turned in a pledge card but do not see your name here, please con-
tact the church office at
