Saturday Evening Prayer

                            Mark 14:44-45

 …the 

betrayer 

had given them a sign 

saying, 

”The one I will 

kiss is 

the man; 

arrest him, & lead him away under guard.” 

 So when Jesus came, 

  Judas went up to him at once 

    & said “Rabbi!” & kissed him..

Saturday, August 29th

                                  Psalm 20:7

Some My

put 

their 

trust 

in chariots 

and some in horses, 

but I will call upon the

Name of the Lord our God. 

45 years ago August 29 was also a Saturday, 

a very special day: 

and the reason that the family is here … I mean the existential reason for this. tinker would exist without today but we would not be family without this day.  

 My cousin asked where I was - here I am! In each picture, the mother is missing ... first me and then Tinker! Fitting, don't you think???!

For Evening Prayer

                                Mark 14: 35 

and he pray-ed that, if it were possible, the hour 

might pass from him…  

St Augustine, Bishop of Hippo, d. August 28, 430

                                                  Psalm 16: 6, 7b 

My 

boundaries 

enclose a 

pleasant land, 

indeed I have a goodly heritage. 

My heart teaches me night after night.

“Sin is 

looking for 

the right

 thing in the 

wrong place.” 

Pray for the churches 

in North Africa:  For those who search for the truth especially young people who are struggling to find meaning; For their lives. For Teachers, For those who  defend the faith; for a deeper love of Scrip-ture. 

A hot evening in late August

                                                           

                                                         Psalm 18:29

         

         You 

         O

         Lord,

         are 

         my 

         lamp; 

         my God, 

         you make my darkness bright. 

Today on the Episcopal Calendar we remember Thomas Gallaudet and Henry Winter Style

                               Psalm 18: 1a, 2a

  

 I 

love 

you, 

O 

Lord, 

my strength, 

My rock in whom I put my trust.

 Thomas Gallaudet (1787- 1851)
is called The Apostle to the Deaf  His ministry too the deaf in the Episcopal Church began one day when he looked out a window and saw children playing, but not with one little deaf girl who stood alone.

Thomas Winter Style 
(1846 –1890) was his student and parishioner who became the first deaf person to be ordained in the Episcopal Church. 

Pray for all who are deaf and hard of  hearing, and for their sense of isolation, for those who cannot hear the voice of their loved ones, the 

songs of birds, the sound of the ocean or the spoken Word of God.

                                       1:48, 2:1,2 

   When David’s 

    time to die 

    drew near,

    the Lord, 

    the God of 

    Israel, who 

    today has 

    granted

    one of my 

    offspring to 

    sit upon my throne and 

    permitted me to witness it. 

    And he charged his son Solomon, 

    saying “Be strong, be courageous, 

    & keep the charge of the Lord your

              God by walking in his ways…”

Today we remember Louis, King of France, 1270

to you; 

for you, 

Lord,

of his determined effort to live a personal life of Franciscan poverty & self-denial in the midst 

of worldly power and splendor.  (Holy Women...)

The Feast of St Bartholomew, The Apostle,

                                                  At  Morning Prayer 

Oh, that  

today you would hearken to God’s voice!  

 Like 
most of the original 12 apostles, Bartholomew 
is nearly a forgotten figure 
We know very little about  Bartholomew historically
… The reason the Church commemorates him, 
and all The Twelves, is not for their individual 
identitie , but of their apostolic call.” (Give Us This Day)

                                         We too, 

by our baptism, are called and sent, and we promise to “continue in the apostles teaching and  fellowship, in the breaking of bread and in the prayers.” (BCP Pg 304)
