Collect: Almighty God, to whose glory we
celebrate the dedication of this house of
prayer: we praise you for the many
blessings you have given to those who
worship you here: and we pray that all
those who seek you in this place may find
you, and belong filled with the Holy Spirit,
may become a living temple acceptable to
you; through Jesus Christ your Son our
Lord, who is alive and reigns with you, in
the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God for
new and for ever. Amen
.
Post-Communion Prayer: Father in heaven,
whose church on earth is a sign of your heavenly
peace, an image of the new and eternal
Jerusalem: grant to us in the days of our
pilgrimage that, fed with the living bread of
heaven, and united in the body of your son, we
may be the temple of your presence, the place of
your glory on earth, and a sign of your peace in
the world: through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen
Genesis 28.11-18
He came to a certain place and stayed there for the night,
because the sun had set. Taking one of the stones of the place,
he put it under his head and lay down in that place. And he
dreamed that there was a ladder set up on the earth, the top of it
reaching to heaven; and the angels of God were ascending and
descending on it. And the LORD stood beside him and said, "I am
the LORD, the God of Abraham your father and the God of Isaac;
the land on which you lie I will give to you and to your offspring;
and your offspring shall be like the dust of the earth, and you shall
spread abroad to the west and to the east and to the north and
to the south; and all the families of the earth shall be blessed in
you and in your offspring. Know that I am with you and will keep
you wherever you go, and will bring you back to this land; for I will
not leave you until I have done what I have promised you." Then
Jacob woke from his sleep and said, "Surely the LORD is in this
place--and I did not know it!" And he was afraid, and said, "How
awesome is this place! This is none other than the house of God,
and this is the gate of heaven." So Jacob rose early in the morning,
and he took the stone that he had put under his head and set it
up for a pillar and poured oil on the top of it.
1 Peter 2:1-10
Rid yourselves, therefore, of all malice, and all guile, insincerity,
envy, and all slander. Like newborn infants, long for the pure,
spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow into salvation- if indeed
you have tasted that the Lord is good. Come to him, a living stone,
though rejected by mortals yet chosen and precious in God's
sight, and like living stones, let yourselves be built into a spiritual
house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices
acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. For it stands in scripture:
"See, I am laying in Zion a stone, a cornerstone chosen and
precious; and whoever believes in him will not be put to shame."
To you then who believe, he is precious; but for those who do not
believe, "The stone that the builders rejected has become the very
head of the corner," and "A stone that makes them stumble, and
a rock that makes them fall." They stumble because they disobey
the word, as they were destined to do. But you are a chosen race,
a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God's own people, in order that
you may proclaim the mighty acts of him who called you out of
darkness into his marvelous light. Once you were not a people, but
now you are God's people; once you had not received mercy,
but now you have received mercy.
John 10. 22-29
At that time the festival of the Dedication took place in Jerusalem.
It was winter, and Jesus was walking in the temple, in the portico
of Solomon. So the Jews gathered around him and said to him,
"How long will you keep us in suspense? If you are the Messiah, tell
us plainly." Jesus answered, "I have told you, and you do not
believe. The works that I do in my Father's name testify to me; but
you do not believe, because you do not belong to my sheep. My
sheep hear my voice. I know them, and they follow me. I give
them eternal life, and they will never perish. No one will snatch
them out of my hand. What my Father has given me is greater
than all else, and no one can snatch it out of the Father's hand.
