Collect

Almighty God,

you have knit together your elect

in one communion and fellowship

in the mystical body of your Son Christ our Lord:

grant us grace so to follow your blessed saints

in all virtuous and godly living

that we may come to those inexpressible joys

that you have prepared for those who truly love you;

through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord. Amen.

First Reading – Revelation 7.9-17*

After this I looked, and there was a great multitude that no one could count, from

every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne

and before the Lamb, robed in white, with palm branches in their hands. They cried

out in a loud voice, saying, ‘Salvation belongs to our God who is seated on the

throne, and to the Lamb!’ And all the angels stood around the throne and around the

elders and the four living creatures, and they fell on their faces before the throne and

worshipped God, singing, ‘Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and

honour and power and might be to our God for ever and ever! Amen.’ Then one of

the elders addressed me, saying, ‘Who are these, robed in white, and where have

they come from?’ I said to him, ‘Sir, you are the one that knows.’ Then he said to me,

‘These are they who have come out of the great ordeal; they have washed their

robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. For this reason they are

before the throne of God, and worship him day and night within his temple, and the

one who is seated on the throne will shelter them. They will hunger no more, and

thirst no more; the sun will not strike them, nor any scorching heat; for the Lamb at

the centre of the throne will be their shepherd, and he will guide them to springs of

the water of life, and God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.’

Second Reading – 1 John 3.1-3

See what love the Father has given us, that we should be called children of God; and

that is what we are. The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know

him. Beloved, we are God’s children now; what we will be has not yet been revealed.

What we do know is this: when he is revealed, we will be like him, for we will see

him as he is. And all who have this hope in him purify themselves, just as he is pure.

4

Gospel – Matthew 5.1-12

When Jesus saw the crowds, he went up on a mountainside and sat down. His disciples

came to him, and he began to teach them, saying: “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for

theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be

comforted. Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth. Blessed are those who

hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled. Blessed are the merciful, for

they will be shown mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. Blessed

are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God. Blessed are those who are

persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. “Blessed are

you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you

because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the

same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.”

Post Communion Prayer

God, the source of all holiness and giver of all good things:

may we who have shared at this table

as strangers and pilgrims here on earth

be welcomed with all your saints

to the heavenly feast on the day of your kingdom;

through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
