Welcome to Sundays at All Hallows.
The Cambridge Dictionary defines canticles as religious songs that contains words from the Bible. Canticles and psalms are a feature of the daily offices of Morning Prayer and Evening Prayer. However, their use is not limited to these offices. They may also be used in celebrations of Holy Communion and Services of the Word. Indeed, their use is encouraged. More recent service books like the Episcopal Church’s The Book of Common Prayer of 1979 make provision for the use of metrical version of the canticles and psalms as well as other versions. This Sunday’s service provides an example of how they may be used in a Service of the Word.
This Sunday’s message reflects on the meaning of 2 Thessalonians 3: 6-13 and its implication for twenty-first century Christians.
Readings: Isaiah 65: 17-25; 2 Thessalonians 3: 6-13; and Luke 21: 5-19
