Collect

O God, the protector of all who trust in you, without whom nothing is strong, nothing is holy:

increase and multiply upon us your mercy; that with you as our ruler and guide

we may so pass through things temporal that we lose not our hold on things eternal;

grant this, heavenly Father, for our Lord Jesus Christ’s sake, who is alive and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit,

one God, now and for ever. Amen.

First Reading – Isaiah 65.1-9 (page 751)

The word of the Lord through the prophet: I was ready to be sought out by those who did not ask, to be found by those who did not seek me. I said, ‘Here I am, here I

am’, to a nation that did not call on my name. I held out my hands all day long to a rebellious people, who walk in a way that is not good, following their own devices; a

people who provoke me to my face continually, sacrificing in gardens and offering incense on bricks; who sit inside tombs, and spend the night in secret places; who eat

swine’s flesh, with broth of abominable things in their vessels; who say, ‘Keep to yourself, do not come near me, for I am too holy for you.’ These are a smoke in my nostrils, a fire that burns all day long. See, it is written before me: I will not keep

silent, but I will repay; I will indeed repay into their laps their iniquities and their ancestors’ iniquities together, says the LORD; because they offered incense on the

mountains and reviled me on the hills, I will measure into their laps full payment for their actions. Thus says the LORD: As the wine is found in the cluster, and they say,

‘Do not destroy it, for there is a blessing in it’, so I will do for my servants’ sake, and not destroy them all. I will bring forth descendants from Jacob, and from Judah

inheritors of my mountains; my chosen shall inherit it, and my servants shall settle there.

Second Reading – Galatians 3.23-29 (page 1170)

Before faith came, we were imprisoned and guarded under the law until faith would

be revealed. Therefore the law was our disciplinarian until Christ came, so that we might be justified by faith. But now that faith has come, we are no longer subject to a

disciplinarian, for in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith. As many of you as were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ; There is no

longer Jew or Greek, there is no longer slave or free, there is no longer male and female; for all of you are one in Christ Jesus. And if you belong to Christ, then you

are Abraham’s offspring, heirs according to the promise.

Gospel – Luke 8.26-39 (page 1038)

Jesus and his disciples arrived at the country of the Gerasenes, which is opposite Galilee. As he stepped out on land, a man of the city who had demons met him. For

a long time he had worn no clothes, and he did not live in a house but in the tombs. When he saw Jesus, he fell down before him and shouted at the top of his voice,

‘What have you to do with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg you, do not torment me’ – for Jesus had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man.

(For many times it had seized him; he was kept under guard and bound with chains and shackles, but he would break the bonds and be driven by the demon into the

wilds.) Jesus then asked him, ‘What is your name?’ He said, ‘Legion’; for many demons had entered him. They begged him not to order them to go back into the

abyss. Now there on the hillside a large herd of swine was feeding; and the demons begged Jesus to let them enter these. So he gave them permission. Then the demons

came out of the man and entered the swine, and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and was drowned. When the swineherds saw what had happened, they ran off and told it in the city and in the country. Then people came out to see

what had happened, and when they came to Jesus, they found the man from whom the demons had gone sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed and in his right mind. And

they were afraid. Those who had seen it told them how the one who had been possessed by demons had been healed. Then all the people of the surrounding

country of the Gerasenes asked Jesus to leave them; for they were seized with great fear. So he got into the boat and returned. The man from whom the demons had

gone begged that he might be with him; but Jesus sent him away, saying, ‘Return to your home, and declare how much God has done for you.’ So he went away,

proclaiming throughout the city how much Jesus had done for him.

Post Communion Prayer

Eternal God, comfort of the afflicted and healer of the broken,

you have fed us at the table of life and hope: teach us the ways of gentleness and peace,

that all the world may acknowledge the kingdom of your Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Bereavement Support

Group

For the last 3 years we have been running a Bereavement Support group

in the Parish Hall. It has been for people of all faiths or none, for those

recently bereaved or those who are still aching after many years. However, particularly since Hildred

left, it has become clear that we are not meeting people’s needs, so the

meetings on the first Thursday of the month in the Parish Hall will now

stop. We are planning to re-launch the service in the autumn, in a

different format. To help provide something useful, we have drawn up a

short questionnaire to ask those who are bereaved what would help.

If you have lost a loved one – recently or further back, please fill in one of

the Questionnaires which will be at the back of Oakham Church, or from

the website. Sian Cheverton.

Mothers’ Union Wine

Tasting

Thanks must go to Ben and Emma of Bat & Bottle who provided the wine

and entertainment, those who attended on the evening and also

those who generously gave donations. A total of £460 will go to the Lunch Project started by the MU in

Kettering for those children who need a good, nutritious meal during

holiday times. Pamela Woods.

Tea Party

Thank you to all who supported the

Tea Party last Sunday by helping, serving, baking and joining us for tea,

sandwiches and cakes – it was a lovely afternoon. Date for your diary: the

next Tea Party is on Sunday the 17th July 2016 at 3:00 – 4:30 pm where we

will have the Church silver on display. We look forward to seeing you then.

Clock Restoration

Appeal

A fundraising appeal to preserve the historic clock in Oakham church tower has

been launched with a front page article in the Rutland Mercury. The clock is an

important timepiece, installed in 1858 by Dent & Co, widely regarded as the finest

clockmaker in 19th century Britain, and is now in need of restoration and upgrading.

For more details about the clock and the appeal please see the website.
