Confession
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
May Almighty God have mercy on us,
forgive us all our sins
through our Lord Jesus Christ,
strengthen us in all goodness,
and by the power of the Holy Spirit
keep us in eternal life.
Amen

Grace to you and peace from God our Fa-ther
and from/the Lord Je-sus Christ.
Wor-ship the Lord in/the beau-ty of his holi-ness;
let the whole earth trem-ble be-fore him.
Let my prayer be set forth in your sight as in-cense,
the lifting up of my hands as the eve-ning sacri-fice.
I will bless the Lord who gives me coun-sel;
my heart teaches me, night after night.
I have set the Lord al-ways be-fore me;
be-cause he is at my right hand, I shall not fall.
O God, make speed to save us.
O Lord, make haste to help us.
Glory to/the Fath-er, and to/the Son,
and to/the Ho-ly Spi-rit:
as it was in/the be-ginning, is now,
and will be for-ever A-men.
O Gracious Light
O gracious Light,
pure brightness of the
everliving Father in heaven.
O Jesus, Christ, holy and blessed!
Now as we come to the setting of the sun,
and our eyes behold the vesper light,
we sing your praises, O God:
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
you are worthy at all times
to be praised by happy voices,
O Son of God, O Giver of life,
and to be glorified through all the worlds.
Psalm 106:19-48

They made an image of/a calf at Ho-reb,
and wor-shiped a metal i-dol.
They traded their ma-jes-tic God
for the image of an ox that eats grass.
They re-jected the God who de-livered them,
the one who per-formed great deeds in E-gypt,
a-mazing feats in/the land of Ham,
and mighty acts by/the Red Sea.
He threatened to de-stroy them,
but Mo-ses, his chosen one,
inter-ced-ed with him
and turned back his de-structive an-ger.
They re-jected the fruit-ful land;
they did not be-lieve his prom-ise.
They grum-bled in their tents;
they did not o-bey the Lord.
So he made a solemn vow
that he would make them die in/the wilder-ness,
make their de-scendants die a-mong the na-tions,
and scatter them a-mong foreign lands.
They wor-shiped Ba-al of Pe-or,
and ate sacri-fic-es ofered to/the dead.
They made the Lord angry by their ac-tions,
and a plague broke out/a-mong them.
Phineh-as took a stand and inter-vened,
and the plague sub-sid-ed.
This was credit-ed to him as a righteous act
for all gener-a-tions to come.
They made him angry by/the waters of Mer-i-bah,
and Mo-ses suffered be-cause of them,
for they a-roused his tem-per,
and so he spoke rash-ly.
They did not de-stroy the na-tions,
as the Lord had com-manded them to do.
They mixed in with/the na-tions
and learned their pa-gan ways.
They wor-shiped their i-dols,
which be-came a snare to them.
They sacri-ficed their sons and daughters to de-mons.
They shed _ inno-cent blood,
the blood of their sons and daugh-ters,
whom they sacri-ficed to/the i-dols of Ca-naan.
The land was pol-luted by blood-shed.
They were de-filed by their deeds,
They were un-faithful in their ac-tions.
So the Lord was angry with his peo-ple
and de-spised the people who be-long to him.
He handed them over to/the na-tions,
and those who hated them ruled over them.
Their ene-mies op-pressed them;
they were subject to their au-thor-i-ty.
Many times he de-livered them,
but they had a re-bel-lious atti-tude,
and de-graded them-selves by their sin.
Yet he took notice of their dis-tress,
when he heard their cry for help.
He re-membered his cove-nant with them,
and re-lented be-cause of his great loyal love.
He caused all their con-querors to have pity on them.
De-liver us, O Lord, our God!
Gath-er us from a-mong the na-tions!
Then we will give you thanks,
sing-iing praise to your holy name,
and boast-ing a-bout your praise-worthy deeds.
The Lord God of Is-ra-el de-serves praise,
in the future and for-ever-more.
Let all the people say,
We a-gree! Praise the Lord!
Glory to/the Fath-er, and to/the Son,
and to/the Ho-ly Spi-rit:
as it was in/the be-ginning, is now,
and will be for-ever A-men.
Readings
A reading from 1 Peter 1:1-12
From Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to those temporarily residing abroad (in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, the province of Asia, and Bithynia) who are chosen according to the foreknowledge of God the Father by being set apart by the Spirit for obedience and for sprinkling with Jesus Christ’s blood. May grace and peace be yours in full measure!
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! By his great mercy he gave us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, that is, into an inheritance imperishable, undefiled, and unfading. It is reserved in heaven for you, who by God’s power are protected through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. This brings you great joy, although you may have to suffer for a short time in various trials. Such trials show the proven character of your faith, which is much more valuable than gold—gold that is tested by fire, even though it is passing away—and will bring praise and glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed. You have not seen him, but you love him. You do not see him now but you believe in him, and so you rejoice with an indescribable and glorious joy, because you are attaining the goal of your faith—the salvation of your souls.
Concerning this salvation, the prophets who predicted the grace that would come to you searched and investigated carefully. They probed into what person or time the Spirit of Christ within them was indicating when he testified beforehand about the sufferings appointed for Christ and his subsequent glory. They were shown that they were serving not themselves but you, in regard to the things now announced to you through those who proclaimed the gospel to you by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven—things angels long to catch a glimpse of.

Thanks be to God!

O rul-er of/the uni-verse, Lord God,
great deeds are they that you have done,
sur-pas-sing human under-stand-ing.
Your ways are ways of righteous-ness and truth,
O King of all the ag-es.
Who can fail to do you hom-age, Lord,
and sing the praises of your Name?
for you only are the Ho-ly One.
All na-tions will draw near
and fall down be-fore you,
be-cause your just and holy works
have been re-vealed. Alle-lu-ia, a-men!
Glory to/the Fath-er, and to/the Son,

A reading from Matthew 19:1-12
Now when Jesus finished these sayings, he left Galilee and went to the region of Judea beyond the Jordan River. Large crowds followed him, and he healed them there.
Then some Pharisees came to him in order to test him. They asked, “Is it lawful to divorce a wife for any cause?” He answered, “Have you not read that from the beginning the Creator made them male and female, and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and will be united with his wife, and the two will become one flesh’? So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.” They said to him, “Why then did Moses command us to give a certificate of dismissal and to divorce her?” Jesus said to them, “Moses permitted you to divorce your wives because of your hard hearts, but from the beginning it was not this way. Now I say to you that whoever divorces his wife, except for immorality, and marries another commits adultery.” The disciples said to him, “If this is the case of a husband with a wife, it is better not to marry!” He said to them, “Not everyone can accept this statement, except those to whom it has been given. For there are some eunuchs who were that way from birth, and some who were made eunuchs by others, and some who became eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. The one who is able to accept this should accept it.”

Thanks be to God!

Bless-ed be the Lord, the God of Is-ra-el;
he has come to his people and set them free.
He has raised up for us a mighty sav-ior,
born of/the house of his servant Da-vid.
Through his holy proph-ets he prom-ised of old,
that he would save us from our ene-mies,
from the hands of all who hate us.
He prom-ised to show mer-cy to our fath-ers
and to re-member his holy cov-e-nant.
This was the oath he swore to our fath-er A-bra-ham,
to set us free from/the hands of our ene-mies,
Free to wor-ship him without fear,
ho-ly and righteous in his sight
all the days of our life.
And you, my child, shall be called
the proph-et of/the Most High,
for you will go be-fore the Lord to pre-pare his way,
To give his people knowledge of sal-va-tion
by the for-give-ness of their sins.
In/the tender com-pas-sion of our God
the dawn from on high shall break up-on us,
To shine on those who dwell in dark-ness
and in/the shadow of death,
and to guide our feet into the way of peace.
Glory to/the Fath-er, and to/the Son,
and to/the Ho-ly Spi-rit:
as it was in/the be-ginning, is now,
