Thoughts from Fr. Hugh The Face of Christ Somewhere recently I saw a poster that looked like mosaic tile. From a distance it was a picture of Jesus. As I got closer I realized that each of the tiles was a photograph or picture of an individual there were hundreds of faces women, men and children of all races, nationalities every one of them and every one of us making up the picture of Jesus. Here at All Saints we delight in our diversity. As we look around on Sundays or other days, we do see that reflection of Christ s image in the faces that surround us. As I look out at the faces of us on Sunday mornings and on other occasions, I know that I am looking at what God in Jesus Christ looks like. I also know that any and every Christian community should look like this. As children of God in Christ we are to love God and love our neighbor and see Christ in each other. We are safe in faithfully knowing that our individual picture is part of Christ s face, part of the body of Christ, then every other person we encounter is also part of that beautiful picture of Christ s face and we must act accordingly. We sometimes refer to All Saints as a family. We are indeed children of God, and not only children but sisters and brothers in Christ and that makes us truly family. Hugh+ Thanks be to God for that!

Volunteers Needed for Beds Around the Altar (February 23-28) There are families in our county that have encountered issues in their lives, which have currently left them without a place to live. Hope South Florida is an organization that works with families who are awaiting space availability in a family shelter. While they are in transition, All Saints is one of many area churches that open up their spiritual home on a regular basis to help these families. During the week, volunteers play an essential role in helping the families cope during their evening stay. Individuals or families prepare a meal and visit with the families. Two chaperones spend the night to provide a reassuring & safe environment. The families are comforted knowing there is loving support for them in a Christian community. The next week we will be hosting this wonderful opportunity of Christian outreach is the week of February 23-27. We are coordinating volunteers to bring evening meals to feed the families at 5:30 pm and chaperones to be on-site overnight with the families from 7 pm until 6 am in the church sanctuary. It is an awesome and rewarding feeling when you are able to help out families in this critical situation. For more info or to volunteer... contact Jeff Miller 954-770-4200 jeff_miller714@yahoo.com or Joseph Deitz at 954-770-4300 josephdeitz@yahoo.com 4

The reader says A READING FROM 2 Kings 2:1-12 Now when the LORD was about to take Elijah up to heaven by a whirlwind, Elijah and Elisha were on their way from Gilgal. Elijah said to Elisha, "Stay here; for the LORD has sent me as far as Bethel." But Elisha said, "As the LORD lives, and as you yourself live, I will not leave you." So they went down to Bethel. The company of prophets who were in Bethel came out to Elisha, and said to him, "Do you know that today the LORD will take your master away from you?" And he said, "Yes, I know; keep silent." Elijah said to him, "Elisha, stay here; for the LORD has sent me to Jericho." But he said, "As the LORD lives, and as you yourself live, I will not leave you." So they came to Jericho. The company of prophets who were at Jericho drew near to Elisha, and said to him, "Do you know that today the LORD will take your master away from you?" And he answered, "Yes, I know; be silent." Then Elijah said to him, "Stay here; for the LORD has sent me to the Jordan." But he said, "As the LORD lives, and as you yourself live, I will not leave you." So the two of them went on. Fifty men of the company of prophets also went, and stood at some distance from them, as they both were standing by the Jordan. Then Elijah took his mantle and rolled it up, and struck the water; the water was parted to the one side and to the other, until the two of them crossed on dry ground. When they had crossed, Elijah said to Elisha, "Tell me what I may do for you, before I am taken from you." Elisha said, "Please let me inherit a double share of your spirit." He responded, "You have asked a hard thing; yet, if you see me as I am being taken from you, it will be granted you; if not, it will not." As they continued walking and talking, a chariot of fire and horses of fire separated the two of them, and Elijah ascended in a whirlwind into heaven. Elisha kept watching and crying out, "Father, father! The chariots of Israel and its horsemen!" But when he could no longer see him, he grasped his own clothes and tore them in two pieces. Reader The Word of the Lord. People Thanks be to God. Psalm 50: 1-6 6
Psalm 50: 1-6 A READING FROM 2 Corinthians 4:3-6 Even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing. In their case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. For we do not proclaim ourselves; we proclaim Jesus Christ as Lord and ourselves as your slaves for Jesus' sake. For it is the God who said, "Let light shine out of darkness," who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. Reader The Word of the Lord. People Thanks be to God. SEQUENCE HYMN 133 O Light of Light, Love given birth Elmhurst THE GOSPEL: Reader: The Holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to Mark 9:2-9 People: Glory to you, Lord Christ. Six days later, Jesus took with him Peter and James and John, and led them up a high mountain apart, by themselves. And he was transfigured before them, and his clothes became dazzling white, such as no one on earth could bleach them. And there appeared to them Elijah with Moses, who were talking with Jesus. Then Peter said to Jesus, "Rabbi, it is good for us to be here; let us make three dwellings, one for you, one 7
for Moses, and one for Elijah." He did not know what to say, for they were terrified. Then a cloud overshadowed them, and from the cloud there came a voice, "This is my Son, the Beloved; listen to him!" Suddenly when they looked around, they saw no one with them any more, but only Jesus. As they were coming down the mountain, he ordered them to tell no one about what they had seen, until after the Son of Man had risen from the dead. After the Gospel, the Reader says The Gospel of the Lord. People Praise to you, Lord Christ. THE SERMON THE NICENE CREED We believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all that is, seen and unseen. We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, eternally begotten of the Father, God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, of one Being with the Father. Through him all things were made. For us and for our salvation he came down from heaven: by the power of the Holy Spirit he became incarnate from the Virgin Mary, and was made man. For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate; he suffered death and was buried. On the third day he rose again in accordance with the Scriptures; he ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and his kingdom will have no end. We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son. With the Father and the Son he is worshiped and glorified. He has spoken through the Prophets. 8 The Reverend Hugh Tudor-Foley

Amen. The Peace is then exchanged Officiant People The peace of the Lord be always with you. And also with you. 10
HOLY COMMUNION EUCHARISTIC PRAYER A OFFERTORY ANTHEM: O Nata Lux from Lux Aeterna Morten Lauridsen (b. 1943) translation from Latin: O born light of light, Jesus, redeemer of the world, mercifully deem worthy and accept the praises and prayers of your supplicants. Thou who once deigned to be clothed in flesh for the sake of the lost ones, grant us to be made members of your holy body. OFFERTORY HYMN 129 Christ upon the mountain peak Mowsley The Eucharistic Gifts are brought forward. The people remain standing. The Celebrant says Celebrant People Celebrant People Celebrant People The Lord be with you. And also with you. Lift up your hearts. We lift them to the Lord. Let us give thanks to the Lord our God. It is right to give him thanks and praise. The Celebrant proceeds It is right, and a good and joyful thing, always and everywhere to give thanks to you, Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth. Because in the mystery of the Word made flesh, you have caused a new light to shine in our hearts, to give the knowledge of your glory in the face of your Son Jesus Christ our Lord. Therefore we praise you, joining our voices with Angels and Archangels and with all the company of heaven, who for ever sing this hymn to proclaim the glory of your Name: Celebrant and People sing Holy, Holy, Holy Lord, God of power and might, S 125 heaven and earth are full of your glory. Hosanna in the highest. Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest. The people stand or kneel. Then the Celebrant continues Holy and gracious Father: In your infinite love you made us for yourself, and, when we had fallen into sin and become subject to evil and death, you, in your mercy, sent Jesus Christ, your only and eternal Son, to share our human nature, to live and die as one of us, to reconcile us to you, the God and Father of all. He stretched out his arms upon the cross, and offered himself, in obedience to your will, a perfect sacrifice for the whole world. 11
At the following words concerning the bread, the Celebrant is to hold it, or to lay a hand upon it; and at the words concerning the cup, to hold or place a hand upon the cup and any other vessel containing wine to be consecrated. On the night he was handed over to suffering and death, our Lord Jesus Christ took bread; and when he had given thanks to you, he broke it, and gave it to his disciples, and said, "Take, eat: This is my Body, which is given for you. Do this for the remembrance of me." After supper he took the cup of wine; and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, and said, "Drink this, all of you: This is my Blood of the new Covenant, which is shed for you and for many for the forgiveness of sins. Whenever you drink it, do this for the remembrance of me." Therefore we proclaim the mystery of faith: Celebrant and People Christ has died. Christ is risen. Christ will come again. The Celebrant continues We celebrate the memorial of our redemption, O Father, in this sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving. Recalling his death, resurrection, and ascension, we offer you these gifts. Sanctify them by your Holy Spirit to be for your people the Body and Blood of your Son, the holy food and drink of new and unending life in him. Sanctify us also that we may faithfully receive this holy Sacrament, and serve you in unity, constancy, and peace; and at the last day bring us with all your saints into the joy of your eternal kingdom. All this we ask through your Son Jesus Christ: By him, and with him, and in him, in the unity of the Holy Spirit all honor and glory is yours, Almighty Father, now and for ever. Amen And now, as our Savior Christ has taught us, we are bold to say, People and Celebrant Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And Forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen. 12
THE BREAKING OF THE BREAD The Celebrant breaks the consecrated Bread. A period of silence is kept. Then may be said [Alleluia.] Christ our Passover is sacrificed for us; S 155 Therefore let us keep the feast. [Alleluia.] The Celebrant says the following Invitation The Gifts of God for the People of God. The Bread and the Cup are given to the communicates with these words The Body of Christ, the Bread of heaven. Amen. The Blood of Christ, the cup of salvation. Amen. Communion Anthem: O Lux Beatissima Howard Helvey (b. 1968) Translated from Latin: O Light most blessed, fill the innmost heart of all thy faithful. Without your grace, there is nothing in us, nothing that is not harmful. Communion HYMN 123 Alleluia, song of gladness Tibi, Christe, splendor Patris After Communion, the Celebrant says Let us pray. Celebrant and People Eternal God, heavenly Father, you have graciously accepted us as living members of your Son our Savior Jesus Christ, and you have fed us with spiritual food in the Sacrament of his Body and Blood. Send us now into the world in peace, and grant us strength and courage to love and serve you with gladness and singleness of heart; through Christ our Lord. Amen. SENDING FORTH OF THE LAY EUCHARISTIC MINISTERS Priest People Priest N. (and N.) we send you out to share Communion this week with N. N. (and N.N.) May you carry the prayers of all of us as you take this sacrament of Christ s presence.

RECESSIONAL Hymn 618 Ye watchers and ye holy ones Lasst uns erfreuen Denio The Deacon, or the Celebrant, dismisses them with these words People Let us go forth in the name of Christ.
