THE ENNEAGRAM/MANAGING STRESSMay 14 at 10 am on Zoom

The Enneagram is a wonderful way to understand

ourselves and others. As we move through the pandemic

many thoughts and feelings arise. How can our study

of the Enneagram support us? How can it be an anchor

point in our current world? How can we become of

greater service to those around us by using knowledge

of the 9 types? How can we draw closer to God? Join

Julie Smith for an exploration of the 9 types in a time of

quarantine and beyond.

Feel from to join if you are an Enneagram veteran of if

this is the first you have heard of it. All are welcome.

LIFE AFTER LIFE AFTER DEATH: WHY AND HOW

RESURRECTION MATTERS

May 14 at 10 am on Zoom

Thank you for your faithful and continued support to St. Paul’s.

Even during these challenging times your generosity abounds. St.

Paul’s offers several ways you can make your weekly gift through our

website or text-to-give by using Tithe.ly. Parishioners find Tithe.

ly to be a useful tool to make recurring weekly gifts toward their

stewardship pledge and contributions to their capital pledge. If you

would like to make gifts to both funds, you can certainly do that.

Tithe.ly makes it simple for you to give to, up to, four funds at once

when logged into your Tithe.ly account (more info on logging into

your Tithe.ly account can be found here).

Giving to multiple funds can be done from the Tithe.ly app or from

the web. The below instructions show how this can be done.

From the Tithe.ly app and web:

Open the Tithe.ly app on your smartphone, click here to access

your Tithe.ly account, or give through our website: https://

stpaulswinstonsalem.org/giving-at-st-pauls/

Make sure St. Paul’s Episcopal Church in Winston-Salem, appears at

the top. If it doesn’t you can click on “find nearest church” or use the

search bar located at the top to find and select your organization.

Click on the “Give Now” button.

Once on the giving form, look for the icon of a + sign with words “Add

Gift” next to it.

Click on that link to add a new gift. (You can add up to four new gifts)

Note: You can then click on the icon of a - sign to remove an

additional gift.

If you prefer to mail your contributions, the St. Paul’s office is open

daily to receive those gifts. Thank you for continuing to support

St. Paul’s, our ministries, and programs. Please contact Margaret

Turner, Director of Stewardship if you have any questions. Feel free

program planning which includes meals, transportation and field

trips. Thank you St. Paul’s!

rental assistance, to ensure that folks can remain in their homes

during this health crisis. We are partnering with other downtown

The Officiant begins Alleluia! Christ is risen. p. 77

The People respond The Lord is risen indeed. Alleluia!

Confession of Sin p. 79 Officiant Let us confess our sins against God and our neighbor. Silence may be kept Officiant and People together, all kneeling 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.

The Priest alone stands and says p. 80 Almighty God have mercy on you, forgive you all your sins through our Lord Jesus Christ, strengthen you in all goodness, and by the power of the Holy Spirit keep you in eternal life. Amen.

The Invitatory and Psalter All stand

Officiant Lord, open our lips. p. 80 People And our mouth shall proclaim your praise.

Christ our Passover Pascha nostrum p. 83 Read in unison

Alleluia. Christ our Passover has been sacrificed for us; * therefore let us keep the feast,

3

Not with the old leaven, the leaven of malice and evil, * but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth. Alleluia.

Christ being raised from the dead will never die again; * death no longer has dominion over him.

The death that he died, he died to sin, once for all; * but the life he lives, he lives to God.

So also consider yourselves dead to sin, * and alive to God in Jesus Christ our Lord. Alleluia.

Christ has been raised from the dead, * the first fruits of those who have fallen asleep.

For since by a man came death, * by a man has come also the resurrection of the dead.

For as in Adam all die, * so also in Christ shall all be made alive. Alleluia.

Officiant Alleluia. The Lord is risen indeed: All Come let us adore him. Alleluia.

The Psalm Psalm 31:1-5, 15-16 p. 622 Read responsively by whole verse

In you, O LORD, have I taken refuge; let me never be put to shame; * deliver me in your righteousness.

Incline your ear to me; * make haste to deliver me.

Be my strong rock, a castle to keep me safe, for you are my crag and my stronghold; * for the sake of your Name, lead me and guide me.

Take me out of the net that they have secretly set for me, * for you are my tower of strength.

Into your hands I commend my spirit, * for you have redeemed me, O LORD, O God of truth.

My times are in your hand; * rescue me from the hand of my enemies, and from those who persecute me.

Make your face to shine upon your servant, * and in your loving-kindness save me.

The Lessons The First Reading Acts 7:55-60

Acts 7:55-60

Filled with the Holy Spirit, Stephen gazed into heaven and saw the glory of God and Jesus standing at the right hand of God. “Look,” he said, “I see the heavens opened and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God!” But they covered their ears, and with a loud shout all rushed together against him. Then they dragged him out of the city and began to stone him; and the witnesses laid their coats at the feet of a young man named Saul. While they were stoning Stephen, he prayed, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.” Then he knelt down and cried out in a loud voice, “Lord, do not hold this sin against them.” When he had said this, he died.

Canticle 8 The Song of Moses Cantemus Domino p. 85

Read in unison

I will sing to the Lord, for he is lofty and uplifted; * the horse and its rider has he hurled into the sea.

The Lord is my strength and my refuge; * the Lord has become my Savior.

This is my God and I will praise him, * the God of my people and I will exalt him.

5

The Lord is a mighty warrior; * Yahweh is his Name.

The chariots of Pharaoh and his army has he hurled into the sea; * the finest of those who bear armor have been drowned in the Red Sea.

The fathomless deep has overwhelmed them; * they sank into the depths like a stone.

Your right hand, O Lord, is glorious in might; * your right hand, O Lord, has overthrown the enemy.

Who can be compared with you, O Lord, among the gods? * who is like you, glorious in holiness, awesome in renown, and worker of wonders?

You stretched forth your right hand; * the earth swallowed them up.

With your constant love you led the people you redeemed; * with your might you brought them in safety to your holy dwelling.

You will bring them in and plant them * on the mount of your possession,

The resting-place you have made for yourself, O Lord, * the sanctuary, O Lord, that your hand has established.

The Lord shall reign * for ever and for ever.

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit: * as it was in the

beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen.

The Second Reading 1 Peter 2:2-10

Like newborn infants, long for the pure, spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow into salvation— if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is good. Come to him, a living stone, though rejected by mortals yet chosen and precious in God’s sight, and like living stones, let yourselves be built into a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. For it stands in scripture: “See, I am laying in Zion a stone, a cornerstone chosen and precious;

and whoever believes in him will not be put to shame.” To you then who believe, he is precious; but for those who do not believe, “The stone that the builders rejected has become the very head of the corner”, and “A stone that makes them stumble, and a rock that makes them fall.” They stumble because they disobey the word, as they were destined to do. But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s own people, in order that you may proclaim the mighty acts of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. Once you were not a people, but now you are God’s people; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.

Reader The Word of the Lord. People Thanks be to God.

The Third Reading John 14:1-14

Jesus said, “Do not let your hearts be troubled. Believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father’s house there are many dwelling places. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, so that where I am, there you may be also. And you know the way to the place where I am going.” Thomas said to him, “Lord, we do not know where you are going. How can we know the way?” Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you know me, you will know my Father also. From now on you do know him and have seen him.” Philip said to him, “Lord, show us the Father, and we will be satisfied.” Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you all this time, Philip, and you still do not know me? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on my own; but the Father who dwells in me does his works. Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; but if you do not, then believe me because of the works themselves. Very truly, I tell you,

8

the one who believes in me will also do the works that I do and, in fact, will do greater works than these, because I am going to the Father. I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If in my name you ask me for anything, I will do it.”

Reader The Word of the Lord. People Thanks be to God.

The Sermon The Rev’d John E. Shields

The Apostles’ Creed p. 96

All stand and say together

I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth. I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord. He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended to the dead. On the third day he rose again. He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.
