8:00am Holy Communion

10:30am Family Communion*

The Order of Service is contained in the separate Service Book.

Opening Hymn*

1. Fathers and mothers,

sisters and brothers,

all those who love us,

for whom we care:

help and befriend them,

keep and defend them,

Jesus our Saviour,

this is our prayer.

2. And for those others,

fathers and mothers,

children who hunger,

they must be fed:

we would be caring,

readily sharing,

one with another

our daily bread.

3. Sisters and brothers,

fathers and mothers,

we who together

offer our praise:

hear our thanksgiving,

God ever living,

may we walk with you

all of our days.

Words: Timothy Dudley-Smith (b 1926)

Music: Bunessan, Gaelic folk melody, arr John Barnard (b 1948) (Ancient & Modern – 136))

The Collect

God of compassion,

whose Son Jesus Christ, the child of Mary,

shared the life of a home in Nazareth,

and on the cross drew the whole human family to himself:

strengthen us in our daily living

that in joy and in sorrow we may know the power of your presence

to bind together and to heal;

through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord,

who is alive and reigns with you,

in the unity of the Holy Spirit,

one God, now and for ever. Amen.

First Reading – 1 Samuel 1.20-28

Hannah conceived and bore a son. She named him Samuel, for she said, ‘I have asked

him of the LORD.’ The man Elkanah and all his household went up to offer to the

LORD the yearly sacrifice, and to pay his vow. But Hannah did not go up, for she said

to her husband, ‘As soon as the child is weaned, I will bring him, that he may appear

in the presence of the LORD, and remain there for ever; I will offer him as a nazirite

4

for all time.’ Her husband Elkanah said to her, ‘Do what seems best to you, wait until

you have weaned him; only - may the LORD establish his word.‘ So the woman

remained and nursed her son, until she weaned him. When she had weaned him, she

took him up with her, along with a three-year-old bull, an ephah of flour, and a skin

of wine. She brought him to the house of the LORD at Shiloh; and the child was

young. Then they slaughtered the bull, and they brought the child to Eli. And she

said, ‘Oh, my lord! As you live, my lord, I am the woman who was standing here in

your presence, praying to the LORD. For this child I prayed; and the LORD has

granted me the petition that I made to him. Therefore I have lent him to the LORD;

as long as he lives, he is given to the LORD.‘ She left him there for the LORD.

Second Reading – Colossians 3.12-17*

As God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, clothe yourselves with compassion,

kindness, humility, meekness, and patience. Bear with one another and, if anyone has

a complaint against another, forgive each other; just as the Lord has forgiven you, so

you also must forgive. Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds everything

together in perfect harmony. And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to

which indeed you were called in the one body. And be thankful. Let the word of

Christ dwell in you richly; teach and admonish one another in all wisdom; and with

gratitude in your hearts sing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs to God. And

whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus,

giving thanks to God the Father through him.

Gradual Hymn*

All our blessings, all our joys

with thankful hearts we sing,

true, compassionate, loving God

accept the praise we bring.

1. For parents and for children,

for husbands, wives, and friends,

for those whose care enfolds us

with love that never ends.

2. For fellowship and friendship

we both receive and give,

for those who’ve shared our journey

and taught us how to live.

3. For all who’ve shared our sorrow,

walked with us in our pain,

who’ve held our hand through darkness

and showed us light again.

Words: Revd Ally Barrett, Vicar of Buckden and the Offords, St Neots (b 1975)

Gospel Reading – John 19.25-27

Standing near the cross of Jesus were his mother, and his mother’s sister, Mary the

wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene. When Jesus saw his mother and the disciple

whom he loved standing beside her, he said to his mother, ‘Woman, here is your

son.’ Then he said to the disciple, ‘Here is your mother.’ And from that hour the

disciple took her into his own home.

Offertory Hymn*

1. Our Father God in heaven

on whom our world depends,

to you let praise be given

for families and friends;

for parents, sisters, brothers,

a home where love belongs,

but on this day for mothers

we bring our thankful songs.

2. What wealth of God’s bestowing

for all the world to share!

what strength of heart outgoing

to children everywhere!

Our deepest joys and sorrows

a mother’s path must trace,

and earth’s unknown tomorrows

are held in her embrace.

3. How well we know the story

that tells of Jesus’ birth,

the Lord of heaven’s glory

become a child of earth;

a helpless infant sleeping,

yet King of realms above,

to finds in Mary’s keeping

the warmth of human love.

4. Our Father God in heaven,

to you we lift our prayer,

that every child be given

such tenderness and care,

where life is all for others,

where love your love displays:

for God’s good gift of mothers

let earth unite in praise!

Words: Timothy Dudley-Smith (b 1926)

Communion Hymns*

1. Put peace into each other’s hands

and like a treasure hold it,

protect it like a candle-flame,

with tenderness enfold it.


with loving expectation;

be gentle in your words and ways,

in touch with God’s creation.


like bread we break for sharing;

look people warmly in the eye:

our life is meant for caring.

4. Give thanks for strong – yet tender – hands,

held out in trust and blessing.

Where words fall short, let hands speak out,

the heights of love expressing.

5. Reach out in friendship, stay with faith

in touch with those around you.

Put peace into each other’s hands:

the Peace that sought and found you.

Word: Fred Kaan (1929-2009)

O Lord, my heart is not proud,

nor haughty my eyes.

I have not gone after things too great,

nor marvels beyond me.

Truly I have set my soul in silence and peace;

at rest, as a child in its mother’s arms,

so is my soul.

Words: From Psalm 131 in The Grail Psalter Music: Margaret Rizza (b 1929)

Post Communion Prayer**

Loving God,

as a mother feeds her children at the breast

you feed us in this sacrament with the food and drink of eternal life:

help us who have tasted your goodness

to grow in grace within the household of faith;

through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Final Hymn*

1. O God beyond all praising,

we worship you today

and sing the love amazing

that songs cannot repay;

for we can only wonder

at every gift you send,

at blessings without number

and mercies without end:

we lift our hearts before you

and wait upon your word,

we honour and adore you,

our great and mighty Lord.

2. Then hear, O gracious Saviour,

accept the love we bring,

that we who know your favour

may serve you as our king;

and whether our tomorrows

be filled with good or ill,

we’ll triumph through our sorrows

and rise to bless you still:

to marvel at your beauty

and glory in your ways,

and make a joyful duty

our sacrifice of praise.

Psalm 32 beatus cui dimissa est G Cooper

1 Blessèd is he whose un- | righteousness ∙ is for- | giv- || en : | and whose | sin is | cover’d. 2 Blessèd is the man unto whom the Lord im- | puteth ∙ no | sin: and in whose | spirit ∙ there | is no | guile.

3 For while I | held my | tongue: my bones consum’d a- | way ∙ through my | daily ∙ com-| plaining. 4 For thy hand is heavy upon me | day and | night : and my moisture is | like the | drought in | summer.

5 I will acknowledge my | sin ∙ unto | thee : and mine un- | righteous-ness | have I ∙ not | hid. 6 I said, * I will confess my | sins unto ∙ the | Lord : and so thou forgavest the | wicked-ness | of my | sin.

7 For this shall every one that is godly make his prayer unto thee, in a time when thou | mayest ∙ be | found : but in the great | water-floods | they shall ∙ not come | nigh him. 8 Thou art a place to hide me in, * thou shalt pre- | serve me ∙ from | trouble : thou shalt compass me a- | bout with | songs ∙ of de- | liverance.

9 I will inform thee, * and teach thee in the way where- | in ∙ thou shalt | go: and I will | guide thee | with mine | eye. 10 Be ye not like to horse and mule, * which have | no ∙ under-| standing: whose mouths must be held with bit and bridle | lest they | fall up- | on thee.

11 Great plagues re- | main for ∙ the un-| godly : but whoso putteth his trust in the Lord, mercy em- | braceth him ∙ on | ev’ry | side. 12 Be glad O ye righteous, and re | joice in ∙ the | Lord : and be joyful all | ye ∙ that are | true of | heart.

Glory | be ∙ to the | Father, and to the | Son and ∙ to the | Ho-ly | Ghost; As it was in the beginning is | now and ∙ ever | shall be : world | with-out | end, A- | men.
