OUR VISION: A world where people experience God’s love and are made whole. OUR MISSION: To share the love of Jesus through compassion, inclusivity, creativity and learning. All Souls’ Requiem Sunday, November 13, 2016 11 a.m. Welcome to Grace Cathedral Welcome to this sacred house of prayer for all people. Those who built this place and care for it love tradition and feel passionate about engaging with what is new. If you look closely you will find images of scientists, reformers, Jewish rabbis and Roman Catholic popes, political leaders, saints, and even an astronaut. We invite you to be part of this joyful community even if your visit is short. You might ask yourself two questions: “What do I need to receive? What do I have to give?” We would be delighted to hear about your explorations. May God bless you on your journey! – The Very Rev. Dr. Malcolm Clemens Young, Dean of Grace Cathedral • • If you are new to Grace Cathedral, please introduce yourself and fill out a welcome card so we can be in touch with you. We’re glad you’re here! Join us for coffee and conversation across the plaza in the Chapter House Library after the 8:30 a.m. service or in the Chapter House Dining Room after the 11 a.m. service. about today’s readings Malachi 4:1-2, 2 Thessalonians 3:6-13, Luke 21:5-19 Reading texts can be found at the end of the service leaflet. In times of stress and drawn-out conflict, it might seem like our readings today are asking more than we can give. Don’t be terrified of wars and violent persecution? Don’t prepare defenses, keep an eye on the exits, blend in with the crowd? And in the midst of it all, keep working tirelessly for good? O Lord, but we’re weary. We’re anxious about the future, distressed by what we’ve seen play out in our nation. Our divisions—and our wounds—are deep. How can we stay hopeful and generous and open to the Spirit’s inflowing wisdom, when daily life is filled with so many assaults to our hearts and minds? Jesus reminds us that God accompanies us even along the hardest stretches of road. This divine companionship is more enduring and more powerful than any institution or obstacle, and can hold us up when our own abilities, energies, and hopes flag. We never endure alone, and there is nothing that we have lost that has slipped out of God’s embrace. God loves and sustains our capacity to do good, wherever and however we can. Doing God’s work is an essential element of being created in God’s image. Christ invited us on this journey by laboring among us. “Work is love made visible,” says the poet Kahlil Gibran—let us take a deep breath, and set forth on our visible loving in a world brimming with so many hungers, in need of so much healing. This reflection was written by Carol James, who has been part of the cathedral community for over a decade. She is the interim mentor of the Education for Ministry program, after co-mentoring from 2008-2013. Carol currently leads the evening prayer providers in our Jail Ministry and is a cathedral staff member. highlights Chuck Collins on Tackling Inequality Today • 9:30 a.m. • Gresham Hall The great grandson of meatpacker Oscar Mayer, activist Chuck Collins renounced his inheritance at age 26 and since then, has spent his life fighting income inequality.

Th e Rea d i n g s Wisdom 3: 1–9 T he souls of the righteous are in the hand of God, and no torment will ever touch them. In the eyes of the foolish they seemed to have died, and their departure was thought to be a disaster, and their going from us to be their destruction; but they are at peace. For though in the sight of others they were punished, their hope is full of immortality. Having been disciplined a little, they will receive great good, because God tested them and found them worthy of himself; like gold in the furnace he tried them, and like a sacrificial burnt offering he accepted them. In the time of their visitation they will shine forth, and will run like sparks through the stubble. They will govern nations and rule over peoples, and the Lord will reign over them forever. Those who trust in him will understand truth, and the faithful will abide with him in love, because grace and mercy are upon his holy ones, and he watches over his elect. 1 Corinthians 15: 50–58 W hat I am saying, brothers and sisters, is this: flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable. Listen, I will tell you a mystery! We will not all die, but we will all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed. For this perishable body must put on imperishability, and this mortal body must put on immortality. When this perishable body puts on imperishability, and this mortal body puts on immortality, then the saying that is written will be fulfilled: “Death has been swallowed up in victory.” “Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?” The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my beloved, be steadfast, immovable, always excelling in the work of the Lord, because you know that in the Lord your labor is not in vain. John 5: 24–27 J esus said, “Very truly, I tell you, anyone who hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life, and does not come under judgment, but has passed from death to life. Very truly, I tell you, the hour is coming, and is now here, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live. For just as the Father has life in himself, so he has granted the Son also to have life in himself; and he has given him authority to execute judgment, because he is the Son of Man. A b o u t to d ay ’s m u s ic M aurice Duruflé is considered one of the greatest of the Parisian organist/composers of the 20th Century. He inherited from his teachers, Charles Tournimere and Louis Vierne, the skill of improvising on the Gregorian melodies, and that is where this requiem had its birth. Originally intended as a solo organ suite, Duruflé soon realized that the inflection of the text made it necessary for the melodies to be sung, and chose to write a piece for chorus and orchestra. Like Mozart’s Requiem, there is some mystery as to who commissioned the piece . Some evidence suggests that the Vichy government, eager to win French sympathizers, commissioned this sacred piece, though the Duruflé family denies that to this day. Others claim that is was Duruflé’s publisher, Durand, that got kickback from the Vichy Regime. Regardless, the government of the Fourth Republic paid Duruflé to finish the work, and it premiered on French Radio on 2 November, 1947. It is dedicated to the composer’s father, who died in 1945. Duruflé is the first composer since Victoria in the Renaissance to write a requiem mass that incorporates Gregorian themes from Missa pro defunctis. In fact, the genius behind this work is that the composer merely harmonizes and arranges the chants so that they take on a whole new life, and this blending of old and new gives the piece a timeless quality. There are four orchestrations, all by the composer: one for full orchestra, one for organ solo, one for piano solo, and one for reduced orchestra with organ. It is this last version we hear today. –Benjamin Bachmann,The Diana Dollar Knowles Canon Director of Music Re q u ie m fo r All So u l s Sunday 13 November 2016 • 11:00 am Ask an usher about child care and Sunday school, hearing assistance devices, or large-print leaflets.

In the assurance of eternal life given at Baptism, let us proclaim our faith and say, 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. 2 The Prayers of the People Presider Deacon All Let us pray to our Savior Jesus Christ, who said: “I am the Resurrection and the Life.” Loving God, you have called your people together in the mystical body of Jesus Christ our Savior. Give to your whole Church in heaven and on earth your light and your peace. Lord, in your mercy: Hear our prayer. Grant that all who have been baptized into Christ’s death and resurrection may die daily to sin and rise to newness of life, and that we, with our Redeemer, may pass through the grave and gate of death to our joyful resurrection. Lord, in your mercy: Hear our prayer. Grant to us who are still on our earthly pilgrimage, and who walk as yet by faith, that your Spirit may lead us in holiness and righteousness all our days. Lord, in your mercy: Hear our prayer. Grant to your faithful people pardon and peace, that we may be cleansed from all our sin and serve you with a quiet mind. Lord, in your mercy: Hear our prayer.

Help us entrust the dead to your never-failing care and love. Receive them into the arms of your mercy, and remember them according to the favor you bear for your people. Lord, in your mercy: Hear our prayer. Silence may be kept. The presider concludes with another prayer. Presider Gracious God, to whom no prayer is offered without hope of mercy: give us your consolation. Strengthen our faith in your unfailing compassion; deliver us from despair, and help us to know your peace, which passes all understanding. Amen.

Give rest, O Christ, to your servants with your saints, where sorrow and pain are no more, neither sighing, but life everlasting. Into your hands, O merciful Savior, we commend your servants. Acknowledge, we humbly beseech you, sheep of your own fold, lambs of your own flock, sinners of your own redeeming. Receive them into the arms of your mercy, into the blessed rest of everlasting peace, and into the glorious company of the saints in light. Amen. Rest eternal grant to them, O Lord. And let light perpetual shine upon them. May their souls, and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen. Retiring Procession Sung in Latin.

Alexander Jim Aboytes Mauro Bobadilla liturgy for the dead is an Easter “ T he liturgy. It finds all its meaning in the resurrection. Because Jesus was raised from the dead, we, too, shall be raised. The liturgy, therefore, is characterized by joy, in the certainty that ‘neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.’ This joy, however, does not make human grief unchristian. The very love we have for each other in Christ brings deep sorrow when we are parted by death. Jesus himself wept at the grave of his friend. So, while we rejoice that one we love has entered into the nearer presence of our Lord, we sorrow in sympathy with those who mourn.” – Book of Common Prayer (p. 507) Jeanne Taylor Virginia McCune Tracy Florence Martha Tyler Rowan Merrill Tyler Marjorie Wilson Alice Broadbent Wolff Edith C.

Constructed by pious hands, this score is outside of time. Inspired by the Gregorian, it is the expression of a belief rather than the voice of a man. If the requiems of Mozart, Berlioz, or Fauré instruct us very exactly on the state of soul of their authors in the face of death, if the Requiem of Verdi is the cry of a people at a specific era, Duruflé’s mass brings a great peace, an absolute serenity, as anonymous as the collective impetus to which we owe our cathedrals….” –Henriette Roget James & Vera Lou Sloan George & Jacqueline Smith Joyce Ellen Smith John Sotirkos Lynne Spalding Jean Marie Squair Stuart Davidson Squair Drew St. James Frank H.
