Dear Worshippers and Friends of St. Clement’s,
Thanks to John Noonan for the Morning Prayer last Sunday when Gordon & I were in Cegléd, Hungary, attending the annual meeting of the Eastern Archdeaconry Synod.
We are back in Prague and I look forward to being the Celebrant and Preacher at our service this coming Sunday…
Sunday 29th September at 11.00 hrs.– Sung Eucharist for Fifteenth Sunday after Trinity
Luke 16. 19-31 is our Gospel reading where Jesus tells the parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus. The supporting readings are 1 Timothy 6. 6-19 which introduces a very practical section on the Christian view of wealth and Psalm 146 which we will say responsively.
Hymns are:– Rejoice, the Lord is King Gopsal; Seek ye first Seek ye first; God is love: let heaven adore him Hyfrydol (12) and All my hope on God is founded Michael.
There will be parallel Children’s Ministry. Following worship, there will be Cool Drinks and Refreshments served at the back of the church.
Other important things..
