The First Sunday after the Epiphany January 10, 2021 10 a.m. Holy Eucharist Rite II
Welcome to Calvary
Whoever you are, wherever you come from, whatever joys
or burdens you carry, you are welcome at Calvary Episcopal
Church. And we are honored that you’ve chosen to say your
prayers with us.
Calvary is an eclectic bunch of Christian people. We don’t
all think the same thoughts, or dress the same way, or vote
for the same candidates, or even believe all the same things
about the mystery of God and what it means to be human.
But, with St. Paul, we believe we need each other because
of our differences, not in spite of them. God calls us out of
estrangement into unity, not uniformity. A body made up of
identical members can’t do much work in the world. Thumbs
are so much more useful with fingers to push against, are
they not?
So, I invite you to join in the life of this congregation with all
that you are, in all your splendid uniqueness, maybe just for
today, but maybe for the rest of your days. We are a fuller
expression of Christ’s body because of your presence. And
has our world ever been more needful of Christ’s reconciling,
loving, and merciful body than now?
The Rev. Scott Walters
Rector
I invite you to join in the life of this congregation with all
that you are, in all your splendid uniqueness, maybe just
for today, but maybe for the rest of your days.
2THE WORD OF GOD
Please help us create an atmosphere of quiet reverence before worship.
Let go of distractions and let the silence and music be gifts as we create sacred space.

THE COLLECT FOR THE FIRST SUNDAY AFTER THE EPIPHANY
Father in heaven, who at the baptism of Jesus in the River Jordan proclaimed him your beloved Son
and anointed him with the Holy Spirit: Grant that all who are baptized into his Name may keep the
covenant they have made, and boldly confess him as Lord and Savior; who with you and the Holy
Spirit lives and reigns, one God, in glory everlasting. Amen.
The people sit.
THE FIRST LESSON Genesis 1:1-5
In the beginning when God created the heavens and the earth, the earth was a formless void and
darkness covered the face of the deep, while a wind from God swept over the face of the waters.
Then God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light. And God saw that the light was good; and
God separated the light from the darkness. God called the light Day, and the darkness he called
Night. And there was evening and there was morning, the first day.
The Word of the Lord.
People Thanks be to God.

THE SECOND LESSON Acts 19:1-7
While Apollos was in Corinth, Paul passed through the interior regions and came to Ephesus,
where he found some disciples. He said to them, “Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you became
believers?” They replied, “No, we have not even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.” Then he said, “Into
what then were you baptized?” They answered, “Into John’s baptism.” Paul said, “John baptized with
the baptism of repentance, telling the people to believe in the one who was to come after him, that
is, in Jesus.” On hearing this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. When Paul had laid
his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came upon them, and they spoke in tongues and prophesied—
altogether there were about twelve of them.
The Word of the Lord.
People Thanks be to God.

5The Holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to Mark.
People Glory to you, Lord Christ.
THE GOSPEL Mark 1:4-11
John the baptizer appeared in the wilderness, proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the
forgiveness of sins. And people from the whole Judean countryside and all the people of Jerusalem
were going out to him, and were baptized by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins. Now John
was clothed with camel’s hair, with a leather belt around his waist, and he ate locusts and wild
honey. He proclaimed, “The one who is more powerful than I is coming after me; I am not worthy to
stoop down and untie the thong of his sandals. I have baptized you with water; but he will baptize you
with the Holy Spirit.”
In those days Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan. And just
as he was coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens torn apart and the Spirit descending like
a dove on him. And a voice came from heaven, “You are my Son, the Beloved; with you I am well
pleased.”
The Gospel of the Lord.
People Praise to you, Lord Christ.
THE SERMON The Rev. Scott Walters
THE NICENE CREED, standing BCP p. 358
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.
We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church. We acknowledge one baptism for the
forgiveness of sins. We look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to
come. Amen.
THE PRAYERS OF THE PEOPLE, FORM IV BCP p. 388

THE CONFESSION AND ABSOLUTION, kneeling BCP p. 360
Celebrant Let us confess our sins against God and our neighbor.
People Most merciful God, we confess that we have sinned against you in thought, word, and
deed, by what we have done, and by what we have left undone. We have not loved you
with our whole heart; we have not loved our neighbors as ourselves. We are truly sorry
and we humbly repent. For the sake of your Son Jesus Christ, have mercy on us and
forgive us; that we may delight in your will, and walk in your ways, to the glory of your
Name. Amen.
Celebrant Almighty God have mercy on you, forgive you all your sins through our Lord Jesus Christ,

GREETINGS AND ANNOUNCEMENTS
THE LITURGY OF THE TABLE
OFFERTORY ANTHEM: Zion, at thy shining gates arr. George Guest
Zion, at thy shining gates, lo, the King of Glory waits! Haste thy Monarch’s pomp to greet, strew thy
palms before his feet. Christ, for thee their triple light: faith and hope and love unite; this the beacon
we display to proclaim thine advent day. Come, and give us peace within; loose us from the bands of
sin. Take away the galling weight laid on us by Satan’s hate. Give us grace thy yoke to wear, give us
strength thy cross to bear. Make us thine in deed and word, thine in heart and life, O Lord. So, when
thou shalt come again, judge of angels and of men, we with all thy saints shall sing alleluias to our
King. (B. H. Kennedy, 1804-1889)
The people stand.
7THE GREAT THANKSGIVING
Eucharistic Prayer B, The Book of Common Prayer p. 367
Celebrant The Lord be with you.
People And also with you.
Celebrant Lift up your hearts.
People We lift them to the Lord.
Celebrant Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
People It is right to give God thanks and praise.
The Celebrant continues
It is right, and a good and joyful thing, always and everywhere to give thanks to you, Father Almighty,
Creator of heaven and earth.
The Celebrant says a Proper Preface
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
Holy, Holy, Holy Lord, God of power and might,
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 Celebrant continues
We give thanks to you, O God, for the goodness and love which you have made known to us in
creation; in the calling of Israel to be your people; in your Word spoken through the prophets; and
above all in the Word made flesh, Jesus, your Son. For in these last days you sent him to be incarnate
from the Virgin Mary, to be the Savior and Redeemer of the world. In him, you have delivered us from
evil, and made us worthy to stand before you. In him, you have brought us out of error into truth, out
of sin into righteousness, out of death into life.
On the night before he died for us, 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, according to his command, O Father:
People We remember his death,
We proclaim his resurrection,
We await his coming in glory;
The Celebrant continues
And we offer our sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving to you, O Lord of all; presenting to you, from
your creation, this bread and this wine.
We pray you, gracious God, to send your Holy Spirit upon these gifts that they may be the Sacrament
of the Body of Christ and his Blood of the new Covenant. Unite us to your Son in his sacrifice, that
we may be acceptable through him, being sanctified by the Holy Spirit. In the fullness of time, put
8all things in subjection under your Christ, and bring us to that heavenly country where, with all your
saints, we may enter the everlasting heritage of your sons and daughters; through Jesus Christ our
Lord, the firstborn of all creation, the head of the Church, and the author of our salvation.
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.
Celebrant and People
AMEN.
Celebrant And now, as our Savior Christ has taught us, we are bold to say,
THE LORD’S PRAYER BCP p. 364
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.
THE BREAKING OF THE BREAD
Celebrant Alleluia. Christ our Passover is sacrificed for us;
People Therefore let us keep the feast. Alleluia.
Celebrant The Gifts of God for the People of God.
and may add Take them in remembrance that Christ died for you, and feed on him in your hearts by faith,
with thanksgiving.
Celebrant Let us pray.
POST COMMUNION PRAYER, said by all BCP p. 365
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.

11WOR SHIP OPPORTUNITIES Sunday Holy Eucharist Holy Eucharist is offered at Calvary each Sunday at 10 a.m. Join us online on our Facebook page, YouTube channel, or on our website: calvarymemphis.org/livestream. Early Morning Prayer Early morning prayer is offered live on Calvary’s Facebook page each day at 6:30 a.m. This prayer service is modeled on Daily Devotions (p. 137 in the Book of Common Prayer) and lasts about 10-15 minutes. All early risers (by preference or necessity!) are invited to come pray together. Morning Prayer The Calvary clergy lead weekday Morning Prayer, which is live-streamed on Calvary’s Facebook page Mondays through Fridays at 8 a.m. Wednesday Noonday Eucharist Holy Eucharist is offered in-person in the Calvary chancel on Wednesdays and features a reflection by one of our priests. The church doors open at 11:45 and close at noon. It is not necessary to make a reservation. Worshippers will be seated 6+ feet apart. Please wear a mask. Compline The Calvary staff lead weekday Compline, a simple service of evening prayers which is live-streamed on Calvary’s Facebook page Mondays through Fridays at 8 p.m. The ancient office of Compline derives its name from a Latin word meaning ‘completion’ (completorium). It is above all a service of quietness and reflection before rest at the end of the day. Evensong “Choral Evensong is a 45-min long peace-inducing church service in which the ‘song’ of voices sounding together in harmony is heard at the ‘even’ point between the active day and restful night, allowing listeners time for restful contemplation–church members, agnostics and atheists alike.” (from choralevensong.org) You can join us at 5 p.m. on the first Sunday of the month for this traditional Anglican choral liturgy on Calvary’s FaceBook and YouTube pages or on our website: calvarymemphis.org/livestream. 12
