Special areas are designated for your convenience. Please speak to an usher if you need assistance. Large print copies of the Book of Common Prayer are available from the ushers for your use during the service. For families with children, there is a soft space in the West Transept, with an open carpeted area and baskets of soft toys and books (the West Transept is near the front, to the left if you are facing the altar). Children are welcome to move freely to and from that area. Nursery care is available at no charge from 8:30 a.m. until 12:30 p.m. in the Children’s Center. Church School and Youth Groups meet at 10:15 a.m. (Church School in the Children’s Center; Youth Groups in La Parroquia, the building near the flagpole). If you have a food sensitivity that requires a low-gluten communion wafer, simply mention that to the clergy person administering communion. They will signal for the receptacle containing the low-gluten hosts to be brought to you, and you may help yourself to a host (to avoid cross-contamination). You may either intinct or drink from the common chalice. The main area of the Church, forward of the choir stalls, is looped to assist those who have difficulty hearing. If you have a T-coil in your hearing aid, you may sit anywhere in this section and hear via the amplification system. For those who have difficulty approaching the communion stations, you have the option of receiving communion in your seat. If you would like one of our clergy to bring the Sacrament to you in your seat, please notify an usher, or ask a parishioner seated near you to notify an usher for you. Hearing assist devices are also available from the ushers. These are operational anywhere in the Church. The ushers will ask for your car keys as a reminder to return the device.

We pray for Katharine, our Presiding Bishop, Kirk, Bishop of Arizona, and all bishops and other ministers; and for all who minister in this congregation. Lord, in your mercy, People: Hear our prayer. Leader: As a star rose high into the nighttime sky to draw the nations to the Christ-child, send your blessing, O God, on this nation, and every nation, and draw the whole world to your peace and truth. Lord, in your mercy, People: Hear our prayer. Leader: As John the Baptist guided throngs of people to the edge of the wilderness and baptized Jesus in the River Jordan, we pray that you would guide our country and our leaders to the ways of justice and righteousness. We pray for Barack, our President, and Doug, our Governor. Lord, in your mercy, People: Hear our prayer. Leader: Like the Magi who traveled from afar to bring gifts and celebrate the Savior’s birth, we pray for this community that we may open our hearts to welcome, respect, and care for immigrants and refugees. Lord, in your mercy, People: Hear our prayer. Leader: As Jesus climbed the mountaintop, and proclaimed blessings on the people of the world, we pray for those who are sick, poor, or in distress, especially those we now name, either silently or aloud (pause). Lord, in your mercy, People: Hear our prayer. Adapted from Prayers for All Epiphany by Rick Morley, Rector of St. Mark’s Episcopal Church, Basking Ridge, NJ. www.rickmorley.com.

The Episcopal Church recommends that one day a year be set aside to raise awareness of substance abuse issues. THE PRAYER FOR RECOVERY SUNDAY Celebrant: Now let us say together the serenity prayer: All: God grant us the serenity to accept the things we cannot change, the courage to change the things we can and the wisdom to know the difference. Celebrant: Living one day at a time, enjoying one moment at a time. Accepting hardship as the pathway to peace. Taking, as Jesus did, this sinful world as it is, not as we would have it. Trusting that You will make all things right, if we surrender to your will. So we will be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with you forever in the next.

I am your servant; grant me understanding: That I may know your decrees. Let us pray.

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: People: Christ has died. Christ is risen. Christ will come again. Celebrant: Pour out your love and your blessing on all we offer here. Breathe your Spirit into these gifts of bread and wine, to make of them the Body and Blood of Christ. Let your Spirit who broods over the whole creation dwell within us. Gather us to be your holy people, the Body of Christ, given for the world you have made.

Amen. Readings FROM THE HEBREW SCRIPTURES ISAIAH 40: 21–31 Have you not known? Have you not heard? Has it not been told you from the beginning? Have you not understood from the foundations of the earth? It is he who sits above the circle of the earth, and its inhabitants are like grasshoppers; who stretches out the heavens like a curtain, and spreads them like a tent to live in; who brings princes to naught, and makes the rulers of the earth as nothing. Scarcely are they planted, scarcely sown, scarcely has their stem taken root in the earth, when he blows upon them, and they wither, and the tempest carries them off like stubble. To whom then will you compare me, or who is my equal? says the Holy One. Lift up your eyes on high and see: Who created these? He who brings out their host and numbers them, calling them all by name; because he is great in strength, mighty in power, not one is missing. Why do you say, O Jacob, and speak, O Israel, “My way is hidden from the LORD, and my right is disregarded by my God”? Have you not known? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He does not faint or grow weary; his understanding is unsearchable. He gives power to the faint, and strengthens the powerless. Even youths will faint and be weary, and the young will fall exhausted; but those who wait for the LORD shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint. - 14 - Readings If I proclaim the gospel, this gives me no ground for boasting, for an obligation is laid on me, and woe to me if I do not proclaim the gospel! For if I do this of my own will, I have a reward; but if not of my own will, I am entrusted with a commission. What then is my reward? Just this: that in my proclamation I may make the gospel free of charge, so as not to make full use of my rights in the gospel. For though I am free with respect to all, I have made myself a slave to all, so that I might win more of them. To the Jews I became as a Jew, in order to win Jews. To those under the law I became as one under the law (though I myself am not under the law) so that I might win those under the law. To those outside the law I became as one outside the law (though I am not free from God’s law but am under Christ’s law) so that I might win those outside the law. To the weak I became weak, so that I might win the weak. I have become all things to all people, that I might by all means save some. I do it all for the sake of the gospel, so that I may share in its blessings. FROM THE EPISTLES Jesus left the synagogue at Capernaum, and entered the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John. Now Simon’s mother-in-law was in bed with a fever, and they told him about her at once. He came and took her by the hand and lifted her up. Then the fever left her, and she began to serve them. That evening, at sundown, they brought to him all who were sick or possessed with demons. And the whole city was gathered around the door. And he cured many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons; and he would not permit the demons to speak, because they knew him. In the morning, while it was still very dark, he got up and went out to a deserted place, and there he prayed. And Simon and his companions hunted for him. When they found him, they said to him, “Everyone is searching for you.” He answered, “Let us go on to the neighboring towns, so that I may proclaim the message there also; for that is what I came out to do.” And he went throughout Galilee, proclaiming the message in their synagogues and casting out demons. THE GOSPEL 1 CORINTHIANS 9: 16–23 MARK 1: 29–39 GRATITUDE SENTENCE We thank you, as members of this congregation, for your financial support of our Pastoral Care ministries, and for the many ways that all ministry groups intentionally pray for and support each other with loving pastoral care. - 15 - Prayers THE PRAYER FOR RECOVERY SUNDAY Celebrant: Now let us say together the serenity prayer: All: God grant us the serenity to accept the things we cannot change, the courage to change the things we can and the wisdom to know the difference. Celebrant: Living one day at a time, enjoying one moment at a time. Accepting hardship as the pathway to peace. Taking, as Jesus did, this sinful world as it is, not as we would have it. Trusting that You will make all things right, if we surrender to your will. So we will be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with you forever in the next. Amen. We pray the serenity prayer because today we observe Recovery Sunday. The Episcopal Church recommends that one day a year be set aside to raise awareness of substance abuse issues. Today we celebrate our “snowbirds” — those whose winter parish home is St. Philip’s. RECOGNITION OF WINTER MEMBERS Gracious Lord, in the Scriptures you tell us that the Church is one Body comprising many parts. We take this opportunity to give you thanks for our Winter Members, an important part of our faith community. We thank you, Lord, for their presence with us, their activity among us, and the contribution they make here during these winter months. Bless them and bless the time that they spend here in Tucson. May they realize the love and care that we at St. Philip’s have for them, and may they grow in their love and commitment to you. At the appointed time, bring them to their summer homes in safety. All this we pray for the honor and glory of your name, through Christ our Lord. Amen. THE COMMENDATION OF LAY EUCHARISTIC MINISTERS Celebrant: We send our Lay Eucharistic Ministers out to share this Holy Communion with those who are unable to be with us today. May those who receive it from you/them be strengthened and encouraged; for age, distance, and illness cannot separate us from the love of God. People: May you/they carry the prayers of all of us as you/they take this sacrament of Christ’s presence to our brothers and sisters. - 16 - 8 FEBRUARY 2015 THE FIFTH SUNDAY AFTER THE EPIPHANY † † † Today AT ST.

Parish Announcements & Notices Recovery Sunday Guest Preacher Today The Episcopal Church recommends that we set aside one day a year to raise awareness of substance abuse issues. We recognize Recovery Sunday today. According to Bill Wilson (a co-founder of Alcoholics Anonymous along with Dr. Bob Smith), the spiritual basis for AA was born in the Calvary Mission, a ministry of the Calvary Episcopal Church in New York (where our Rector once served). The rector, the Rev. Dr. Sam Schoemaker, is given credit for spiritual guidance and many of the ideas that eventually came together to found Alcoholics Anonymous. In that tradition of the Episcopal Church helping AA and its various spinoffs to carry on their missions, the following 12-Step groups meet at St. Philip’s: Our guest preacher at the 7:45, 9, and 11:15 a.m. services is the Rev. John Christopher. John is a cradleborn Episcopalian who disappeared from the church for decades, only to return and receive a call for clerical service. After a rather circuitous route, he was ordained a priest last October. John has been in recovery from alcohol and drugs for over 20 years and spent a decade counseling people with chemical dependency. His burning desire is to start a Diocesanwide recovery ministry. This will begin next fall on a part time basis and be introduced at the next Convention. John served for 6 years in Gila Bend and is now the Vicar of St. Jude’s, Glendale. He and his wife, Lisa, have 3 children and 6 grandchildren between them. Lisa is a yoga instructor and serious gardener and John loves to hike and read. John is very excited to spend the day with the wonderful people of St. Philip’s.

ACS Database Implementation I am spearheading the committee that is working on implementing our ACS database. We are well into the process of exploring its wider functionality to enable us to better serve our parish and community. We have started with the staff and are moving on to the ministry leaders, who will be able to tell you more about it as they learn. Be assured that you control the privacy settings for your information, and the most other parishioners can see is your name, address, phone number, and email IF you enable that. If you choose you may even opt not to use the system. I will be in the office most Sunday mornings—stop by with questions or contact me at [email protected] or 429-2297. —Beth Brouillette LayMinisters & Birthdays Happy Birthday!
