Paths to Connect

Al l Sai n t s Au s ti n
Our primary means of community is worship on Sundays, but in a large church such as ours, it is necessary to organize
smaller in order to truly connect and become rooted. You can find out about all the ways to connect smaller at
allsaintsaustin.org/connect or scan one of the QR codes below to go directly to information about a specific ministry

ADVENT | CHRISTMAS | EPIPHANY | LENT | EASTER | PENTECOST
THE SEASON OF EPIPHANY
The word "epiphany" means to show, reveal, or make known. As a season, it is a time set aside for
seeking to see Christ more clearly as he moves from obscurity to clarity, veiled to unveiled, inaccessible
to accessible, and from the periphery of people's interest and attention to the center of their lives.
Epiphany's paradigm for following Jesus is the Magi, the "wise men" of Matthew chapter 2.
THE COLORS OF EPIPHANY
White and gold are the colors with which Epiphany begins and ends. They represent the light, purity,
and preciousness of Christ who has come into our broken world to heal and reign. The middle weeks of
Epiphany are represented by the color green to emphasize God's growing revelation of Christ's identity
and mission and the church's renewed participation in them.

CONFESSION OF SIN
Minister: God of glory, you sent Jesus among us as the light of the world,
to reveal your love for all people.
People: We confess that our sin and pride
hide the brightness of your light.
We turn away from those in need;
we ignore the spiritual complacency in our own lives;
and we do not seek peace with those at odds with us.
In your mercy, cleanse us of our sin;
baptize us once again with your Spirit,
that, forgiven and renewed, we may show forth your glory,
shining in the face of Jesus Christ.
-Based on the Book of Common Worship
(Pause for a time of silent confession followed by pastoral prayer
for the congregation, community, and the world.)
ASSURANCE OF PARDON
Minister: The Almighty and merciful Lord grant you absolution and remission of
all your sins, true repentance, amendment of life, and the grace and
consolation of his Holy Spirit.
People: Amen.

OLD TESTAMENT READING
Exodus 24:12-18
The LORD said to Moses, “Come up to me on the mountain and wait there, that I may give
you the tablets of stone, with the law and the commandment, which I have written for their
instruction.” 13 So Moses rose with his assistant Joshua, and Moses went up into the
mountain of God. 14 And he said to the elders, “Wait here for us until we return to you. And
behold, Aaron and Hur are with you. Whoever has a dispute, let him go to them.”
15 Then Moses went up on the mountain, and the cloud covered the mountain. 16 The
glory of the LORD dwelt on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days. And on the
seventh day he called to Moses out of the midst of the cloud. 17 Now the appearance of
the glory of the LORD was like a devouring fire on the top of the mountain in the sight of
the people of Israel. 18 Moses entered the cloud and went up on the mountain. And Moses
was on the mountain forty days and forty nights.
EPISTLE READING
1 Corinthians 13:1-8
If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or
a clanging cymbal. 2 And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and
all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am
nothing. 3 If I give away all I have, and if I deliver up my body to be burned, but have not
love, I gain nothing.
4 Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant 5 or rude. It does
not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; 6 it does not rejoice at wrongdoing,
but rejoices with the truth. 7 Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things,
endures all things.
8 Love never ends.
Reader: The Word of the Lord.
People: Thanks be to God!

GOSPEL PROCESSION
Please turn and face the Bible as it is processed into the aisle.
Instrumental refrain is played as the bible is returned to the altar table.
GOSPEL READING
Reader: The Holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to Matthew.
People: Glory to you, Lord Christ.
Matthew 17:1-9, 14-16
And after six days Jesus took with him Peter and James, and John his brother, and led them
up a high mountain by themselves. 2 And he was transfigured before them, and his face
shone like the sun, and his clothes became white as light. 3 And behold, there appeared to
them Moses and Elijah, talking with him. 4 And Peter said to Jesus, “Lord, it is good that we
are here. If you wish, I will make three tents here, one for you and one for Moses and one for
Elijah.” 5 He was still speaking when, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and a voice
from the cloud said, “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased; listen to him.” 6
When the disciples heard this, they fell on their faces and were terrified. 7 But Jesus came
and touched them, saying, “Rise, and have no fear.” 8 And when they lifted up their eyes, they
saw no one but Jesus only.
9 And as they were coming down the mountain, Jesus commanded them, “Tell no one the
vision, until the Son of Man is raised from the dead.”...
14 And when they came to the crowd, a man came up to him and, kneeling before him, 15
said, “Lord, have mercy on my son, for he has seizures and he suffers terribly. For often he
falls into the fire, and often into the water. 16 And I brought him to your disciples, and they
could not heal him.”
Reader: The Gospel of the Lord.
People: Praise be to you, Lord Christ.
SMALL SAINTS DISMISSAL

AFFIRMATION OF FAITH
Celebrant: Christian, what do you believe?
People: I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth.
And in Jesus Christ His only Son our Lord;
Who was conceived by the Holy Ghost,
born of the Virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, dead, and buried;
He descended into hell;
the third day He rose again from the dead;
He ascended into heaven,
and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty;
from thence He shall come to judge the quick and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Ghost;
the holy catholic Church; the communion of saints;
the forgiveness of sins; the resurrection of the body;
and the life everlasting. Amen.
-The Apostles Creed

HOLY COMMUNION
OFFERTORY
Celebrant: Let us with gladness present the tithes and offerings of our life and labor
to the Lord.
OFFERTORY INSTRUMENTAL INTERLUDE
TITHES & OFFERINGS
Online giving is available at any time at allsaintsaustin.org/giveonline
or you may leave offerings in the bowl at the entrance before or
after the service.
Minister: Let us pray:
People: We do not presume to come to this, Your Table, O merciful Lord, trusting in our own
righteousness, but in your manifold and great mercies. We are not worthy so much as
to gather up the crumbs under your Table. But you are the same Lord whose property
is always to have mercy. Grant us therefore, gracious Lord, so to eat the flesh of your
dear Son Jesus Christ, and to drink his blood, that our sinful bodies may be made clean
by his body and our souls washed through his most precious blood that we may
evermore dwell in him, and he in us. Amen.
(Please stand.)
GREAT THANKSGIVING
Celebrant: The Lord be with you.
People: And with your spirit.
Celebrant: Lift up your hearts.
People: We lift them up unto the Lord.
Celebrant: Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
People: It is right to give him thanks and praise.
Celebrant: It is very good and right, our duty and privilege to at all times and in all places
give thanks unto you O Lord, holy Father, Almighty and Everlasting God.
For you are the eternal, immortal, and invisible King, the only true God. You
created us and all things out of nothing; and when we had fallen into sin, you
raised us up again in Christ, and did not cease to do everything until you had
brought us up to heaven, granting us the kingdom that is to come. For this
10 and for all that we know and do not know, we give you thanks. We especially
give you thanks for this Eucharist offering.Celebrant: In and through your Son, Jesus Christ, condescend to receive it from our
hands, even though angels and archangels and all the company of heaven
laud and magnify your glorious name, evermore praising you and singing:

People:

Hea ven and earth are full, full of your
Bless ed is He who comes in the name of the
glo ry. Ho san na in the high est. Ho
Lord.
san na in the high est.
(Music: Franz Schubert; adapt. David Lutes)
^ (Please kneel or be seated)
Celebrant: With these angelic voices, O Lord, lover of mankind, we also cry
and say: holy are you, Lord, and all-holy, you and your only begotten
Son, and your Holy Spirit; and magnificent is your glory; for you so
loved the world that you gave your only-begotten Son that whoever
believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.
For in the night in which he was betrayed, Jesus took bread; and when he
had given thanks, he broke it, and gave it to his disciples, saying, "Take, eat,
this is my Body, which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of me."
Likewise, after supper, he took the cup; and when he had given thanks,
he gave it to them, saying, "Drink of this, all of you; for this is my Blood of
the New Covenant, which is shed for you, and for many, for the remission
of sins. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me."
Remembering this commandment and all that Christ has done for
us we present to you our bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to
you, which is our reasonable service, and we proclaim together:
People: Christ has died, Christ is risen, Christ will come again.
11
^ At this time please kneel or be seated.12
Celebrant: And we pray, pour out your Holy Spirit upon us and on these your gifts of
bread and wine. Make this bread also the precious Body of your Son, and
that which is in this cup His precious Blood. Sanctify them by your
Holy Spirit; so that they may be unto us nourishment of soul,
fellowship with the Spirit, and a foretaste of your kingdom.
Grant us with one mouth and one heart to glorify and bless your
all-holy and magnificent name, the Father, the Son, and the
Holy Spirit, now and forever.
People: Amen.
Celebrant: And now, as our Savior Christ has taught us, we are bold to say:
People: 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 debts as we forgive our debtors. Lead us not into temptation, but deliver
us from evil, for Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory forever. Amen.
THE BREAKING OF THE BREAD
Celebrant: Christ our Passover has been sacrificed for us;
People: Therefore, let us keep the feast.
Celebrant: The peace of Christ be with you.
People: And also with you.
INVITATION
Celebrant: The Gifts of God for the People of God. Take them in remembrance
that Christ died for you, and feed on him by faith, with thanksgiving.

14HYMNS FOR COMMUNION
HE HAS DONE ALL THINGS WELL
We are weary. We are broken.
We are crawling through the dust,
Weak and wounded, full of worry,
Wondering who will rescue us.
Only Jesus, who died for sinners,
Only Jesus, who conquered hell,
Only Jesus, who rose, triumphant,
He has done all things well.
Loving God and loving neighbor,
Loving friend and enemy,
A perfect life of grace and mercy,
A perfect death on Calvary.
Look to Jesus, who died for sinners.
Look to Jesus, who conquered hell.
Look to Jesus, who rose, triumphant,
He has done all things well.
So come, you weary. Come, you broken.
Come, you crumbling into dust.
All you wounded, worried children,
Come, and He will give you rest.
And follow Jesus, who died for sinners.
Follow Jesus, who conquered hell.
Follow Jesus, who rose triumphant.
He has done all things well.
He has done all things well.
He has done all things well.
