The 9 a.m. Sunday Euchart currently employing liturgical texts adapted from Prayers for an Inclusive Church, publhed in 2008 by Dr. Steven Shakespeare, Senior Lecturer in Philosophy at Liverpool Hope University in U.K. The goal th work, according to author s introduction, was to revitalize art formal prayer, by bringing experiences exclusion and liberation into dialogue with [Lectionary s] scriptural texts, always ready to be surpred by power both to reveal new dimensions salvation. To th end, Shakespeare frequently employs unfamiliar images and concepts, seeking to jar us out preconceived and limiting images Divine. Some h most unsettling images, however, are those that are drawn most directly from Biblical texts. Prayer should not be alienating, he says, nor should it be too comfortable.

Of th gospel I have become a servant according to gift God s grace that was given me by working h power. Although I am very least all saints, th grace was given to me to bring to Gentiles news boundless riches Chrt, and to make everyone see what plan mystery hidden for ages in God who created all things; so that through church wdom God in its rich variety might now be made known to rulers and authorities in heavenly places.

They told him, In Bethlehem Judea; for so it has been written by prophet: And you, Bethlehem, in land Judah, are by no means least among rulers Judah; for from you shall come a ruler who to shepherd my people Israel. Then Herod secretly called for we men and learned from m exact time when star had appeared.
