3. through David foretold concerning Judas, who became a guide
for those who arrested Jesusâfor he was numbered among us
and was allotted his share in this ministry. So one of the men
who have accompanied us during all the time that the Lord
Jesus went in and out among us, beginning from the baptism of
John until the day when he was taken up from usâone of these
must become a witness with us to his resurrection.â So they
proposed two, Joseph called Barsabbas, who was also known
as Justus, and Matthias. Then they prayed and said, âLord, you
know everyoneâs heart. Show us which one of these two you
have chosen to take the place in this ministry and apostleship
from which Judas turned aside to go to his own place.â And
they cast lots for them, and the lot fell on Matthias; and he was
added to the eleven apostles.
Hear what the Spirit is saying to Godâs People: Thanks be to
God.
PSALM 1 (sung)
Happy are they who have not walked in the counsel of the
wick-ed, *
nor lingered in the way of sinners / nor sat in the seats of
the scorn-ful!
Their delight is in the law of the LORD, *
and on his law they med-i-tate day and night.
They are like trees planted by streams of water / bearing fruit
in due season, with leaves that do not wi-ther; *
everything they do shall pros-per.
It is not so with the wick-ed; *
they are like chaff which the wind blows a-way.
4. Therefore the wicked shall not stand upright when judg-ment
comes, *
nor the sinner in the council of the righ-teous.
For the LORD knows the way of the righ-teous, *
but the way of the wick-ed is doomâd.
Glory be to the Father and to the Son:
and to the Ho-ly Spi-rit.
As it was in the beginning is now and ever shall be:
world with-out end A-men.
A READING FROM THE FIRST LETTER OF JOHN 5: 9-13
read by Marina Russouw
If we receive human testimony, the testimony of God is greater;
for this is the testimony of God that he has testified to his Son.
Those who believe in the Son of God have the testimony in
their hearts. Those who do not believe in God have made him a
liar by not believing in the testimony that God has given
concerning his Son. And this is the testimony: God gave us
eternal life, and this life is in his Son. Whoever has the Son has
life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life. I
write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of
God, so that you may know that you have eternal life.
Hear what the Spirit is saying to Godâs People.
Thanks be to God.

5. Gospeller: The Lord be with you.
All: And also with you.
Gospeller: The Holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ
according to John 17: 6-19.
All: Glory to you, Lord Jesus Christ.
Jesus said, âFather, I have made your name known to those
whom you gave me from the world. They were yours, and you
gave them to me, and they have kept your word. Now they
know that everything you have given me is from you; for the
words that you gave to me I have given to them, and they have
received them and know in truth that I came from you; and they
have believed that you sent me. I am asking on their behalf; I
am not asking on behalf of the world, but on behalf of those
whom you gave me, because they are yours. All mine are yours,
and yours are mine; and I have been glorified in them. And now
I am no longer in the world, but they are in the world, and I am
coming to you. Holy Father, protect them in your name that you
have given me, so that they may be one, as we are one. While I
was with them, I protected them in your name that you have
given me. I guarded them, and not one of them was lost except
the one destined to be lost, so that the scripture might be
fulfilled. But now I am coming to you, and I speak these things
in the world so that they may have my joy made complete in
themselves. I have given them your word, and the world has
hated them because they do not belong to the world, just as I do
not belong to the world. I am not asking you to take them out of
the world, but I ask you to protect them from the evil one. They
do not belong to the world, just as I do not belong to the world.
Sanctify them in the truth; your word is truth. As you have sent
me into the world, so I have sent them into the world. And for
their sakes I sanctify myself, so that they also may be sanctified
in truth.â

Music Notes:
Are you a regular visitor to the parish website (http://
www.stbarnabas-toronto.com/)? One of the first things you
might notice is that the churchâs address is incorrect (this has
been reported to the wizards who know how to fix such things).
The other thing you might have noticed is that the weekly music
information is now in the form of a blog, meaning that
parishioners and others have the opportunity to comment,
anonymously or not, on matters musical. Did you like todayâs
hymns? Was the anthem or communion motet or solo helpful to
your worship experience? This is a chance to participate in a
discussion(s) and provide valuable feedback about the music
programme, both positive and negative, and we welcome and
appreciate all comments. Here is the link to the music page:
http://stbarnabastoronto-music.blogspot.ca/ on which each
weekâs music is posted in advance of Sunday.
