Collect of the Day: Almighty God, who inspired your servant Luke the physician to
set forth in his gospel the love and healing power of your Son: graciously continue in
your Church this love and power to heal, to the praise and glory of your name;
through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy
Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

A reading from the book of Jeremiah
A reading from St Paul’s second letter to Timothy
Is there no balm in Gilead?
Is there no physician there?
Why then has the health of my poor people not been restored?
O that my head were a spring of water, and my eyes a fountain of tears,
so that I might weep day and night for the slain of my poor people!
O that I had in the desert a traveller’s lodging-place,
that I might leave my people and go away from them!
For they are all adulterers, a band of traitors.
They bend their tongues like bows;
they have grown strong in the land for falsehood, and not for truth;
for they proceed from evil to evil, and they do not know me, says the Lord .
Do your best to come to me soon, for Demas, in love with this present world, has
deserted me and gone to Thessalonica; Crescens has gone to Galatia, Titus to
Dalmatia. Only Luke is with me. Get Mark and bring him with you, for he is useful in
my ministry. I have sent Tychicus to Ephesus. When you come, bring the cloak that
I left with Carpus at Troas, also the books, and above all the
parchments. Alexander the coppersmith did me great harm; the Lord will pay him
back for his deeds. You also must beware of him, for he strongly opposed our
message. At my first defence no one came to my support, but all deserted me.
May it not be counted against them! But the Lord stood by me and gave me
strength, so that through me the message might be fully proclaimed and all the
Gentiles might hear it. So I was rescued from the lion’s mouth.
Jeremiah 8.22 - 9.3
Hear what the Spirit is saying to the Church
The Psalm: 145.10-18
join in the Gloria.
Thanks be to God.
(will be sung by the choir and the congregation is invited to
2 Timothy 4.9-17a
Hear what the Spirit is saying to the church Thanks be to God.
Gradual Hymn: 518
From thee all skill and science flow
The Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to St Luke
 Glory to you Lord Jesus Christ.

All creation | praises you ∙ O | Lord:
and your faithful | servants | bless your | name.
They speak of the glory | of your | kingdom:
and | tell of ∙ your | great | might,
That the whole earth may know your | mighty | acts:
and the glorious | splendour | of your | kingdom.
Your kingdom is an ever|lasting | kingdom:
and your dominion en|dures through | all ∙ gener|ations.
The Lord upholds all | those who | stumble:
and raises up | those ∙ that are | bowed | down.
The eyes of all look to | you in | hope:
and you give them their | food in | due | season;
You open | wide your | hand:
and fill all things | living ∙ with your | bounte∙ous | gift.
The Lord is just in | all his | ways:
and | faithful ∙ in | all his | dealings.
The Lord is near to all who | call up|on him:
to all who | call up|on him ∙ in | truth.
Glo|ry to | God: Father | Son and | Holy | Spirit
as in the be|ginning · so | now:
and for | ever | A—|men.

After this the Lord appointed seventy others and sent them on ahead of him in
pairs to every town and place where he himself intended to go. He said to them,
‘The harvest is plentiful, but the labourers are few; therefore ask the Lord of the
harvest to send out labourers into his harvest. Go on your way. See, I am sending
you out like lambs into the midst of wolves. Carry no purse, no bag, no sandals;
and greet no one on the road. Whatever house you enter, first say, “Peace to this
house!” And if anyone is there who shares in peace, your peace will rest on that
person; but if not, it will return to you. Remain in the same house, eating and
drinking whatever they provide, for the labourer deserves to be paid. Do not move
about from house to house. Whenever you enter a town and its people welcome
you, eat what is set before you; cure the sick who are there, and say to them, “The
kingdom of God has come near to you.”
Luke 10.1-9
The Gospel of our Lord.  Praise to you Lord Jesus Christ.

From the Vicar
On Wednesday we took delivery of a new piano for the church - a gift
from Barbara Rounsevell in appreciation of the contribution that our music
ministry makes to the life of our parish and her love of it. We will formally
dedicate this gift to the glory of God at our 9.30am service on All Saints'
Day, 2 November. Barbara's generosity has made possible this new
instrument and the relocation of our old church piano to Cater Hall.
A busy week of engagement at Synod in the evenings and all day
Saturday for your Synod representatives prevented some of us from
attending Tastes & Treasures @ Trinity on Saturday, but thank you to all who
assisted with our market. Our November market coincides with the Surrey
Hills Music Festival who will be using the church from 2pm for choral
performances. Brochures on the festival's events are available on the
bench in the narthex. Please also take a TMA if you did not get on last
Sunday.
Our Annual Meeting will be held on 16 November following morning tea at
11.15am. If your ministry group usually submits a report for publication,
please let me have this as soon as it is available so that it can be included
in the parish's Annual Report which will be available on 9 November for
collection.
Spring Fair activities are increasing as are delivery of goods for the day. The
asparagus order sign-up sheet and an order form for Kurrajong Wines are
on the bench in the narthex too.
We now have our own 'wheely-walker' and more about this gift elsewhere
in these notices. The Parish Council is endeavouring to ensure that the
facilities for those with disabilities is as good as can reasonably be provided
and we are most grateful for the gift of this addition to our parish
equipment to assist those who may need it from time to time.
Fr Ian

Notices
'Holy Trinity on wheels' We have acquired a 'wheely-walker' for parish use,
generously funded by a parishioner. It lives in the alcove at the top of the
stairs at the front of the parish office. It is a light-weight model so that it
can be easily lifted down the stairs or rolled down the ramp to the
narthex. It is provided in case a parishioner gets a lift to church and is
unable to bring their own wheely-walker with them. It will avoid the
difficulty that some have in getting their walker into a car or taxi.
Christmas Choir The Annual Service of Lessons and Carols will be held at
7pm Sunday 21 December, the Sunday before Christmas. Other singers
are invited to join our choir for this special event. The practices
for the Carol Service will start on Thursday November 6 at 8.30 pm
following the regular choir practice. If you are interested in singing with
our choir for the Carol Service, please contact Richard.
