12 Sermon †
13 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 substance with the Father. Through him all things were made. For us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven; by the power of the Holy Spirit he became incarnate of 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. With the Father and the Son, he is worshipped 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 Great Thanksgiving
18 Eucharistic Prayer
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.
Worship and praise belong to you, Father, in every place and at all times.
All power is yours. You created the heavens and established the earth; you sustain in being all that is.
In Christ your Son our life and yours are brought together in a wonderful exchange. He made his home among us that we might for ever dwell in you.
Through your Holy Spirit you call us to new birth in a creation restored by love.
As children of your redeeming purpose we offer you our praise, with angels and archangels and the whole company of heaven, singing the hymn of your unending glory:
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.
Glory and thanksgiving be to you, most loving Father, for the gift of your Son born in human flesh He is the Word existing beyond time, both source and final purpose, bringing to wholeness all that is made. Obedient to your will he died upon the Cross. By your power you raised him from the dead. He broke the bonds of evil and set your people free to be his Body in the world
On the night when he was given up to death, knowing that his hour had come, having loved his own, he loved them to the end. At supper with his disciples he took bread and offered you thanks. He broke the bread, and gave it to them, saying: “Take, eat. This is my Body: it is broken for you.” After supper, he took the cup, he offered you thanks, and gave it to them saying: “Drink this, all of you. This is my Blood of the new covenant; it is poured out for you, and for all, that sins may he forgiven. Do this in remembrance of me.”
We now obey your Son’s command. We recall his blessed passion and death, his glorious resurrection and ascension; and we look for the coming of his Kingdom. Made one with him, we offer you these gifts and with them ourselves, a single, holy, living sacrifice.
Hear us, most merciful Father, and send your Holy Spirit upon us and upon this bread and this wine, that, overshadowed by his life-giving power, they may be the Body and Blood of your Son, and we may be kindled with the fire of your love and renewed for the service of your Kingdom.
Help us, who are baptised into the fellowship of Christ’s Body to live and work to your praise and glory; may we grow together in unity and love until at last, in your new creation, we enter into our heritage in the company of the Virgin Mary, the apostles and prophets, and of all our brothers and sisters living and departed.
Through Jesus Christ our Lord, with whom, and in whom, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, all honour and glory be to you, Lord of all ages, world without end.
Amen.

Our Father in heaven, hallowed he your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Do not bring us to the time of trial but deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power and the glory are yours, now and for ever. Amen.

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, the power and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen.

Mar a dh’òrdaich agus a theagaisg ar Slànaighear Crìosd dhuinn,
tha dànadas againn a ràdh:
Ar n-Athair, a tha air nèamh, naomhaichear t’ainm; thigeadh do rìoghachd; deanar do thoil air an talamh mar thatar a’ deanamh air nèamh. Thoir dhuinn an diugh ar n-aran laitheil; agus maith dhuinn ar ciontan mar a mhaitheas sinne dhaibh-san a tha ‘ciontachadh nar n-aghaidh. Agus na leig am buaireadh sinn, ach saor sinn o olc. Oir is leatsa an rìoghachd, an cumhachd agus a’ ghlòir, gu sìorraidh agus gu sìorraidh. Amen
21 Comanachadh
Aig tabhartas an arain:
Corp Chriosda a thugadh air do shon.
Aig tabhartas na cailis:
Fuil Chrìosda a dhòirteadh air do shon.
Freagraidh an Comanaiche Amen.

(a) ‘Athair, bhrist sinn an t-aran, corp Chriosda, bhlas sinn fion a bheatha nuadh. Tha sinn a’ toirt taing dhut airson nan tiodhlac seo leis an deanar sinn nar n-aon ann agus air ar tarraing a-staigh don chruthachadh nuadh sin, do thoil airson cinne-dhaonna gu leir; troimh-san a fhuair bàs air ar son-ne agus a dh’eirich a-rithist, do Mhac, ar Slànaighear Iosa Crìosd. Amen.
(b) ‘Athair na h-uile, tha sinn a’ toirt taing agus cliù dhut gun do thachair thu oirnn nad Mhac, nuair a bha sinn fhathast fad as agus gun tug thu dhachaidh sinn.

Sinne aig a bheil co-phàirt ann an corp Chrìosda caitheamaid ar beatha mar a bheatha-san ath-bheothaichte; sinne a tha ag òl as a chupa, gun toireamaid beatha do fheadhainn eile; sinne a tha an Spiorad a’ lasadh, gun toireamaid solas don t-saoghal. Cum daingeann sinn anns an dòchas a chuir thu mu ar coinneamh a chum gum bi sinn agus do chlann uile saor, agus gum mol an saoghal air fad t’ainm; tro Iosa Crìosd ar Tighearna. Amen.
(c) ‘Athair, is e do dheoin seasmhach gum bi a h-uile nì air a choilionadh nad Mhac. Sinne a fhuair gealltainnean na rìoghachd, caitheamaid ar beatha le creideamh, coisicheamaid ann an dòchas agus bitheamaid air ar ath-nuadhachadh ann an gràdh, gus an sgàthanaich an saoghal do ghlòir agus gum bi thu nad uile anns a h-uile nì, tro Iosa Crìosd ar Tighearna. Amen.
