The Fourth Sunday Of Easter (Good Shepherd Sunday)

The Fourth Sunday Of Easter (Good Shepherd Sunday)

O God, whose Son Jesus is the good shepherd of thy people; Grant that when we hear his voice we may know him who calleth us each by name, and follow where he doth lead; who, with thee and the Holy Spirit, liveth and reigneth, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

This evening we welcome those who are taking part in this year’s Choirmasters Conference, which begins in earnest tomorrow.

‚ñ∫The Rector speaks about the conference in his weekly audio message.

Today at Festal Evensong, Fr Daniels preaches Sermon 12 of our 15-part series on prayer called “Lord, Teach Us to Pray.” Prior to Palm Sunday, the series focused on lines from the Lord’s Prayer. Two weeks ago, the series turned towards the types of prayer. The sermon today is on penitence. See the complete list of sermons in the series here.

About Choral Evensong: Based on the services held daily in the medieval Church, Choral Evensong as arranged in the Book of Common Prayer of the Anglican Church has been sung regularly since the Sixteenth Century. Many people who are new to worship at Saint Thomas prefer to come to Choral Evensong because it is relatively contemplative. The service includes readings (just as would occur at Evening Prayer) and prayers led by a priest. An anthem as well as a setting of the Magnificat and the Nunc dimittis are sung by the choir. Read more about Choral Evensong here, or view the Choral Evensong Service Card posted to the bottom of this page, where links to the webcast will be posted during and after the service.

‚ñ∫There is no Mass following Choral Evensong on Sundays. If you would like to make your Holy Communion for the week, consider attending one of the morning Eucharists, or else at any of the other sixteen masses at Saint Thomas later this week.
