Welcome
For one hundred sixty-three
years we have been gathering as a community to worship God and demonstrate
our faith in our daily lives.
We have carefully designed
our liturgy to comfort you
where you hurt and to challenge you where you have
grown complacent. In all that
we do we seek to equip each
other to live out our faith
wherever we may be. As a
tangible expression of Jesus’
openness to all, Trinity Episcopal Cathedral welcomes
all persons regardless of ethnicity, sexual orientation, socio-economic circumstance,
or religious background to
our worshiping community
and Eucharist table. We welcome all who seek God and
invite you into our efforts
to be a strong moral voice
in our city, the diocese, and
the larger world around us.
Come, join us as we seek to
build the Kingdom of God
in our souls, our lives, and
our community on this fragile earth, our island home.

The Liturgy of the Word
Please be seated for the readings.
The First Lesson
Lector
Acts 1:1-11
Chapman Dix
A reading from the Acts of the Apostles.
In the first book, Theophilus, I wrote about all that Jesus did and taught from the beginning until
the day when he was taken up to heaven, after giving instructions through the Holy Spirit to the
apostles whom he had chosen. After his suffering he presented himself alive to them by many convincing proofs, appearing to them during forty days and speaking about the kingdom of God. While
staying with them, he ordered them not to leave Jerusalem, but to wait there for the promise of the
Father. “This,” he said, “is what you have heard from me; for John baptized with water, but you will be
baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now.” So when they had come together, they asked
him, “Lord, is this the time when you will restore the kingdom to Israel?” He replied, “It is not for
you to know the times or periods that the Father has set by his own authority. But you will receive
power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, in all
Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” When he had said this, as they were watching, he
was lifted up, and a cloud took him out of their sight. While he was going and they were gazing up
toward heaven, suddenly two men in white robes stood by them. They said, “Men of Galilee, why do
you stand looking up toward heaven? This Jesus, who has been taken up from you into heaven, will
come in the same way as you saw him go into heaven.”

The Epistle
Lector
Ephesians 1:15-23
Lee Garrett
A reading from the Letter to the Ephesians.
I have heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love toward all the saints, and for this reason
I do not cease to give thanks for you as I remember you in my prayers. I pray that the God of our
Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you a spirit of wisdom and revelation as you come
to know him, so that, with the eyes of your heart enlightened, you may know what is the hope to
which he has called you, what are the riches of his glorious inheritance among the saints, and what
is the immeasurable greatness of his power for us who believe, according to the working of his
great power. God put this power to work in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated
him at his right hand in the heavenly places, far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and above every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the age to come. And he
has put all things under his feet and has made him the head over all things for the church, which is
his body, the fullness of him who fills all in all.

Luke 24:44-53
The Holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ, according to Luke.
Glory to you, Lord Christ.
Jesus said to his disciples, “These are my words that I spoke to you while I was still with you—that
everything written about me in the law of Moses, the prophets, and the psalms must be fulfilled.”
Then he opened their minds to understand the scriptures, and he said to them, “Thus it is written,
that the Messiah is to suffer and to rise from the dead on the third day, and that repentance and
forgiveness of sins is to be proclaimed in his name to all nations, beginning from Jerusalem. You are
witnesses of these things. See, I am sending upon you what my Father promised; so stay here in the
city until you have been clothed with power from on high.” Then he led them out as far as Bethany,
and, lifting up his hands, he blessed them. While he was blessing them, he withdrew from them and
was carried up into heaven. And they worshiped him, and returned to Jerusalem with great joy; and
they were continually in the temple blessing God.

The Nicene Creed
The word “creed” comes from the Latin credo, translated here as “we believe.” Credo is not simply
belief in accurate propositions, but more deeply a sense of relationship or trust—an alternate translation
might be “we give our heart,” “we trust,” “we rely upon.” Developed in the fourth century as a means
of unifying a divided church, the Nicene Creed has been used by Christians in worship for almost
two thousand years, and connects us to our ancient ancestors in the Communion of Saints. The Creed
is used in worship not because it comprises a list of doctrinal statements one must affirm in order
to be considered a Christian, but rather as a song of praise and confidence in the Holy Trinity: God in
three persons who creates, redeems, and sanctifies a holy people.
Please stand as you are able for the Creed.
We believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty,
maker of heaven and earth, of all that is, seen and unseen.
We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ,
the only Son of God, eternally begotten of the Father,
God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God,
begotten, not made, of one Being with the Father.
Through him all things were made.
For us and for our salvation he came down from heaven,
was incarnate of the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary and became truly human.
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate; he suffered death and was buried.
On the third day he rose again in accordance with the Scriptures;
he ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and his kingdom will have no end.
We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father,
who with the Father and the Son is worshipped and glorified,
who has spoken through the prophets.
We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church.
We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins.
We look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen.

Unto our King sing praise seraphic-wise!
Lift up your Heads, ye lasting Doors, they sing,
And let the King of Glory enter in.

In flakes of Glory down him to attend;
And hear Heart-cramping notes of Melody
Surround his Chariot as it did ascend:
Mixing their Music, making e’vry string
More to enravish, as they this tune sing.

Please stand as you are able or kneel.
Celebrant We give thanks to you, O God, for the goodness and love which you have made
known to us in creation; in the calling of Israel to be your people; in your Word spoken through the prophets; and above all in the Word made flesh, Jesus, your Son. For
in these last days you sent him to be incarnate from the Virgin Mary, to be the Savior
and Redeemer of the world. In him, you have delivered us from evil, and made us
worthy to stand before you. In him, you have brought us out of error into truth, out
of sin into righteousness, out of death into life.
On the night before he died for us, our Lord Jesus Christ took bread; and when he
had given thanks to you, he broke it, and gave it to his disciples, and said, “Take, eat:
This is my Body, which is given for you. Do this for the remembrance of me.”
After supper he took the cup of wine; and when he had given thanks, he gave it to
them, and said, “Drink this, all of you: This is my Blood of the new Covenant, which
is shed for you and for many for the forgiveness of sins. Whenever you drink it, do
this for the remembrance of me.” Therefore, according to his command, O Father,
Together
We remember his death,
We proclaim his resurrection,
We await his coming in glory;
Celebrant And we offer our sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving to you, O Lord of all;
presenting to you, from your creation, this bread and this wine.
We pray you, gracious God, to send your Holy Spirit upon these gifts that they may be
the Sacrament of the Body of Christ and his Blood of the new Covenant. Unite us to
your Son in his sacrifice, that we may be acceptable through him, being sanctified by
the Holy Spirit. In the fullness of time, put all things in subjection under your Christ,
and bring us to that heavenly country where, with Mary and all your saints, we may enter the everlasting heritage of your sons and daughters; through Jesus Christ our Lord,
the firstborn of all creation, the head of the Church, and the author of our salvation.
By him, and with him, and in him, in the unity of the Holy Spirit all honor and glory
is yours, Almighty Father, now and for ever.
People
Amen.
Celebrant
And now, as our Savior Christ has taught us, we are bold to say,
People Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name,
thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory,
for ever and ever. Amen.

IN OUR SON’S NAME DISCUSSION & VIEWING
Sunday, May 31, 9:00 a.m., Morrison Room. After Phyllis
Rodriguez lost her 31-year-old son, Greg, in the attacks
of September 11, 2001, she and her husband, Orlando,
were traumatized, but knew right away that violence
committed by our government would not be in their
son’s name. They wrote a letter titled “Not in Our Son’s
Name” that circulated widely on the internet, expressing
their opposition to a military response in Afghanistan
which would result in countless deaths of innocent
victims, like their son. Phyllis will speak about what they
experienced that day and their journey from shock, grief
and trauma to working for peace and reconciliation. The
film, In Our Son’s Name, tells their story and will be
shown on May 31 at 7:00 p.m. in Kempton Hall. Comments and questions will be welcome.

Campaign for Trinity: Preserving our Spiritual Home.
With $434,668 left to raise, it is now time to focus on
our last unfunded campaign priority-ACCESSIBILITY.
Gifts to the campaign will enable us to install new
ramps from the street and the courtyard to ADA compliant entrances within the cloister, allowing members
and guests navigating wheelchairs, strollers and crutches
direct access to our buildings. The days of waiting for a
Trinity volunteer to open the Chapel door will be over.
Any guest or member coming to Trinity will be able to
enter and leave the Cathedral through the cloister and
the courtyard. These great accessibility improvements
will enable all to see we are a truly open and welcoming
congregation and we are living out our mission: to seek
and serve God in all persons and to provide spiritual
nourishment for all who journey to find a sacred home.
Please accept the challenge before you by making accessibility a reality, so we can enhance and permanently impact our cathedral campus for decades to come. To learn
more about the campaign, please stop by the campaign
table on Sunday mornings in Kempton Hall during coffee hour through May 31st. For more information or to
give towards the campaign, contact Ajah Maloney Capps
at 503-478-1252 or [email protected]. To give
online, go to www.trinity-episcopal.org and click on the
Campaigns tab.
SURVEY COMING FROM PARKING COMMITTEE
It comes as no surprise that parking at Trinity is becoming more and more challenging. With the myriad of
meetings and programs offered at Trinity, members and
visitors are gathering, but at times having to park blocks
away. Our Vestry is forming a Parking Committee to address this issue. With the help of Jim Bethell, we will be
exploring ways to address this situation. The Committee
will be sending out a survey shortly to gain your input
and insight to our parking dilemma. Please respond and
let us know what your experiences and challenges may
be regarding parking at Trinity. We will take this information as a first step to seeking some possible resolutions. Yours in Christ, Jerry Petty, Senior Warden
TRINITY’S NEW WEBSITE
To stay relevant in an online-driven world, Trinity’s
Webmaster, Pam Knepper worked with a local web
design company over the last four months to create a
new site for Trinity that would incorporate many of the
recent advances you see on other websites like rotating pictures, responsive design, and ease in navigation.
The site is now up and running. We encourage you to
visit www.trinity-episcopal.org (same location as the old
site) and hope you enjoy the new look, navigation and
overall improvements. If you have any questions or comments about Trinity’s new website, please contact Pam
Knepper at [email protected]. Thank you!
