The Calendar St Luke Wednesday this week is for St Luke. Luke the physician, Luke the author, Luke the traveler. None of which we would know if it were not for Theophilus, the man to whom he addressed his two books: his gospel and the Acts. Theophilus handed the books down, just as Nicholas Ferrar handed on to us the poetry of George Herbert, sent to Little Gidding from Bemerton shortly before the TB took Herbert. Luke wrote in Greek, not classical Greek, but commoners Greek because he knew the Gospel is for everyone. Early on he tells us that Simeon saw A light to lighten the gentiles (Lk 3:32). Some say he was the unnamed disciple who walked with Cleopas and our risen Lord to Emmaus. He offered the Lord gentle hospitality. Stay with us, for it is near evening and the day is far spent (Lk 24:29). Then they celebrated the first holy communion. And they saw the Light. Lighten our darkness wrote Archbishop Cranmer. That was Luke s mission. He joined Paul at Troas and went over with him to Macedonia, where the Gospel was heard for the first time in Europe (Acts 16:12). Later, he went with Paul to Rome. Only Luke is with me, Paul wrote to Timothy at one point (2 Tim. 4:11). Throughout his gospel, Luke points us to prayer. The bookends are in the temple, with Zachariah at the beginning, the disciples at the end, and in between the Lord praying again and again. It is a reason his books are as fresh today as when he wrote them. He gave us three of the great prayers of the church, the Benedictus, Magnificat, and Nunc Dimittis. They are blessings for each day; for the beginning of life and for the end. We owe a great debt to Luke. And to Theophilus. The most excellent Theophilus. Submitted by Chris Burn 11

3 The Gospel 10 The Holy Gospel is written in the twenty-second chapter of the Gospel according to Saint Matthew beginning at the 1st verse. (BCP) Glory be to thee, O Lord. (BCP) The Holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to Matthew. (BAS) Glory to you, Lord Jesus Christ. (BAS) Once more Jesus spoke to them in parables, saying: "The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a king who gave a wedding banquet for his son. He sent his slaves to call those who had been invited to the wedding banquet, but they would not come. Again he sent other slaves, saying, 'Tell those who have been invited: Look, I have prepared my dinner, my oxen and my fat calves have been slaughtered, and everything is ready; come to the wedding banquet.' But they made light of it and went away, one to his farm, another to his business, while the rest seized his slaves, mistreated them, and killed them. The king was enraged. He sent his troops, destroyed those murderers, and burned their city. Then he said to his slaves, 'The wedding is ready, but those invited were not worthy. Go therefore into the main streets, and invite everyone you find to the wedding banquet.' Those slaves went out into the streets and gathered all whom they found, both good and bad; so the wedding hall was filled with guests. But when the king came in to see the guests, he noticed a man there who was not wearing a wedding robe, and he said to him, 'Friend, how did you get in here without a wedding robe?' And he was speechless. Then the king said to the attendants, 'Bind him hand and foot, and throw him into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.' For many are called, but few are chosen." (Matthew 22:1-14) The Gospel of Christ. Praise be to thee, O Christ. (BCP) Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.

Psalm 106:1-6, Hallelujah! Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good, for his mercy endures for ever. Who can declare the mighty acts of the Lord or show forth all his praise? Happy are those who act with justice and always do what is right! Refrain. Remember me, O Lord, with the favour you have for your people, and visit me with your saving help; that I may see the prosperity of your elect and be glad with the gladness of your people, that I may glory with your inheritance. We have sinned as our forebears did, we have done wrong and dealt wickedly. Refrain. Israel made a bull-calf at Horeb and worshipped a molten image. And so they exchanged their Glory for the image of an ox that feeds on grass. They forgot God their saviour, who had done great things in Egypt, wonderful deeds in the land of Ham, and fearful things at the Red Sea. So he would have destroyed them, had not Moses his chosen stood before him in the breach, to turn away his wrath from consuming them. Refrain. A Reading from the Letter of Paul to the Philippians Therefore, my brothers and sisters, whom I love and long for, my joy and crown, stand firm in the Lord in this way, my beloved. I urge Euodia and I urge Syntyche to be of the same mind in the Lord. Yes, and I ask you also, my loyal companion, help these women, for they have struggled beside me in the work of the gospel, to together with Clement and the rest of my coworkers, whose names are in the book of life. Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, Rejoice. Let your gentleness be known to everyone. The Lord is near. Do not worry about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally, beloved, whatever is true, whatever is honourable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is pleasing, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence and if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. Keep on doing the things that you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, and the God of peace will be with you. (Philippians 4:1-9) Hear what the spirit is saying to the church. Thanks be to God. 9

5 A Reading from the Book of Exodus When the people saw that Moses delayed to come down from the mountain, the people gathered around Aaron, and said to him, "Come, make gods for us, who shall go before us; as for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him." Aaron said to them, "Take off the gold rings that are on the ears of your wives, your sons, and your daughters, and bring them to me." So all the people took off the gold rings from their ears, and brought them to Aaron. He took the gold from them, formed it in a mold, and cast an image of a calf; and they said, "These are your gods, O Israel, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt!" When Aaron saw this, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made proclamation and said, "Tomorrow shall be a festival to the Lord." They rose early the next day, and offered burnt offerings and brought sacrifices of well-being; and the people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to revel. The Lord said to Moses, "Go down at once! Your people, whom you brought up out of the land of Egypt, have acted perversely; they have been quick to turn aside from the way that I commanded them; they have cast for themselves an image of a calf, and have worshipped it and sacrificed to it, and said, 'These are your gods, O Israel, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt!'" The Lord said to Moses, "I have seen this people, how stiff-necked they are. Now let me alone, so that my wrath may burn hot against them and I may consume them; and of you I will make a great nation." But Moses implored the Lord his God, and said, "O Lord, why does your wrath burn hot against your people, whom you brought out of the land of Egypt with great power and with a mighty hand? Why should the Egyptians say, 'It was with evil intent that he brought them out to kill them in the mountains, and to consume them from the face of the earth'? Turn from your fierce wrath; change your mind and do not bring disaster on your people. Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, your servants, how you swore to them by your own self, saying to them, 'I will multiply your descendants like the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have promised I will give to your descendants, and they shall inherit it forever.'" And the Lord changed his mind about the disaster that he planned to bring on his people. (Exodus 32:1-14) 8 Hear what the spirit is saying to the church. Thanks be to God.
