READINGS THIS WEEK COLLECT Almighty God, whose Son fasted forty days in the wilderness, and was tempted as we are but did not sin, give us grace to discipline ourselves in submission to your Spirit, that as you know our weakness, so we may know your power to MARCH 9,

7 save; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. PRAYER OVER THE GIFTS God our refuge and our strength, receive all we offer you this day, and through the death and resurrection of your Son transform us to his likeness. We ask this in his name. PRAYER AFTER COMMUNION Faithful God, in this holy bread you increase our faith and hope and love. Lead us in the path of Christ who is your Word of life. We ask this in his name. A READING FROM THE BOOK OF GENESIS The Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to till it and keep it. And the Lord God commanded the man, "You may freely eat of every tree of the garden; but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall die." Now the serpent was more crafty than any other wild animal that the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, "Did God say, 'You shall not eat from any tree in the garden'?" The woman said to the serpent, "We may eat of the fruit of the trees in the garden; but God said, 'You shall not eat of the fruit of the tree that is in the middle of the garden, nor shall you touch it, or you shall die.' "But the serpent said to the woman, "You will not die; for God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil." So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was to be desired to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate; and she also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate. Then the eyes of both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made loincloths for themselves. GENESIS 2:15-17; 3:1-7 MARCH 9,

8 PSALM REFRAIN Happy are they whose transgressions are forgiven, Happy are they whose transgressions are forgiven, and whose sin is put away! Happy are they to whom the Lord imputes no guilt, and in whose spirit there is no guile! R While I held my tongue, my bones withered away, because of my groaning all day long. For your hand was heavy upon me day and night; my moisture was dried up as in the heat of summer. R Then I acknowledged my sin to you, and did not conceal my guilt. I said, "I will confess my transgressions to the Lord." Then you forgave me the guilt of my sin. R Therefore all the faithful will make their prayers to you in time of trouble; when the great waters overflow, they shall not reach them. You are my hiding-place; you preserve me from trouble; you surround me with shouts of deliverance. R "I will instruct you and teach you in the way that you should go; I will guide you with my eye. Do not be like horse or mule, which have no understanding; who must be fitted with bit and bridle, or else they will not stay near you." R Great are the tribulations of the wicked; but mercy embraces those who trust in the Lord. Be glad, you righteous, and rejoice in the Lord; shout for joy, all who are true of heart. R PSALM 32 A READING FROM THE LETTER OF PAUL TO THE ROMANS Therefore, just as sin came into the world through one man, and death came through sin, and so death spread to all because all have sinned sin was indeed in the world before the law, but sin is not reckoned when there is no law. Yet death exercised dominion from Adam to Moses, even over those whose sins were not like the transgression of Adam, who is a type of the one who was to come. But the free gift is not like the trespass. For if the many MARCH 9,

9 died through the one man's trespass, much more surely have the grace of God and the free gift in the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, abounded for the many. And the free gift is not like the effect of the one man's sin. For the judgement following one trespass brought condemnation, but the free gift following many trespasses brings justification. If, because of the one man's trespass, death exercised dominion through that one, much more surely will those who receive the abundance of grace and the free gift of righteousness exercise dominion in life through the one man, Jesus Christ. Therefore just as one man's trespass led to condemnation for all, so one man's act of righteousness leads to justification and life for all. For just as by the one man's disobedience the many were made sinners, so by the one man's obedience the many will be made righteous. ROMANS 5:12-19 THE HOLY GOSPEL OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST ACCORDING TO MATTHEW Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. He fasted forty days and forty nights, and afterwards he was famished. The tempter came and said to him, "If you are the Son of God, command these stones to become loaves of bread." But he answered, "It is written, 'One does not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.'" Then the devil took him to the holy city and placed him on the pinnacle of the temple, saying to him, "If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down; for it is written, 'He will command his angels concerning you,' and 'On their hands they will bear you up, so that you will not dash your foot against a stone.'" Jesus said to him, "Again it is written, 'Do not put the Lord your God to the test.'" Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendour; and he said to him, "All these I will give you, if you Eu Euc B A Euc B Euc B A MARCH 9,

10 will fall down and worship me." Jesus said to him, "Away with you, Satan! for it is written, 'Worship the Lord your God, and serve only him.'" Then the devil left him, and suddenly angels came and waited on him. MATTHEW 4:1-11 This Morning's Music The Italian composer, Quirino Gasparini, was born in Gandino, near Bergamo, Italy. He studied for the priesthood, but largely devoted his life to music, becoming maestro de capello at the Duomo di Torino (Turin Cathedral). His compositions were mainly intended for use at the cathedral. Adoramus te was erroneously attributed to Mozart for many years. Mozart met Gasparini, who was music director of the cathedral in Turin, when he visited that city during his European tour as a child. Mozart s father admired Gasparini s piece and copied it down, and the work later got mixed in with Mozart s own collection. Elizabeth Poston was an English composer, pianist, and writer. She studied at the Royal Academy of Music in London, where she was encouraged by both Peter Warlock and Ralph Vaughan Williams. She won a prize from for her violin sonata, which was subsequently broadcast by the BBC. When she graduated from 1925, seven of her songs were published, and in 1928 she published five more. She was the president of the Society of Women Musicians Poston composed scores for radio and television productions, over 40 in radio alone, and later collaborated with writers such as C. S. Lewis and Dylan Thomas. Barry Peters is a native of Cape Breton and received his Bachelor of Music degree from Mount Allison University with a Certificate of Excellence in Performance. He has sung with the Amadeus Choir, the Toronto Mendelssohn Choir and the Elmer Iseler Singers. Barry can be seen singing his benediction with our choir on the Cathedral webpage. MARCH 9,

13 Lenten Opportunities Lenten Quiet Day at the Cathedral New Date TBA "For you know the heart of a stranger... Exodus 23 : 9" Our lives are so much richer when we open them to others. We can all point to the people who have made the most difference, have done the most to enhance our life. Sometimes, though, it is those we would least expect who become our greatest blessings, who enable us to be our best selves.

In our time together, we ll consider the implications of such imperatives as we reflect on our call to welcome one another as Christ.
