Th
In addition to regular supervision, all staff at ev. e c i Saint Michael now engage in K en n e th H a n n o n , V . Br quarterly conversations with their supervisors. Normally held offsite, these conversations help staff reflect on how things are going, whether they are getting traction with their quarterly goals, and what would help them function more effectively. The conversations are mutual, not one-way, and are meant to offer perspective, clarity, and support.
JOIN US IN WORSHIP
In these conversations, I am finding that one of our newly adopted practices is making a big difference: the “clarity break.” At regularly scheduled times, leaders are stepping away from their daily tasks, reflecting on the issues they are facing, and asking questions like: “What is the issue behind the issue? Who else is this affecting and how might I collaborate with them on a solution? What attitudes or practices do I need to adopt to help me stay healthy and whole in a fastpaced environment? What is God trying to say in this circumstance?” As spiritual leaders have been teaching us for millennia, and as the Rev. Mary Lessmann reminded us in her sermon on July 18, sometimes we need to slow down in order to make progress. If it worked for Jesus, it will probably work for us, too.

STREAMING & ON DEMAND
SAINTMICHAEL.ORG/LIVE My prayer for you this summer is that you are able to take a clarity break. I hope you can reflect on what is happening in your life and what God is trying to say or do. Saint Michael offers many outlets to love, learn, and lead, but taking time apart will help you know what is yours to do, and what belongs to someone else. In Christ,
The Rev. Kenneth H. Brannon Vice Rector

The Collect of the Day
Celebrant The Lord be with you. People And also with you. Celebrant Let us pray. O God, the protector of all who trust in you, without whom nothing is strong, nothing is holy: Increase and multiply upon us your mercy; that, with you as our ruler and guide, we may so pass through things temporal, that we lose not the things eternal; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen. Seated
The Lesson
Ephesians 3:14-21
I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth takes its name. I pray that, according to the riches of his glory, he may grant that you may be strengthened in your inner being with power through his Spirit, and that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith, as you are being rooted and grounded in love. I pray that you may have the power to comprehend, with all the saints, what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, so that you may be filled with all the fullness of God. Now to him who by the power at work within us is able to accomplish abundantly far more than all we can ask or imagine, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen. Lector The Word of the Lord. People Thanks be to God. Chanted by the choir

Psalm 145:10-19 (Anglican chant) All your works praise you, O Lord, * and your faithful servants bless you. They make known the glory of your kingdom * and speak of your power; That the peoples may know of your power * and the glorious splendor of your kingdom. Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom; * your dominion endures throughout all ages. The Lord is faithful in all his words * and merciful in all his deeds.
Joseph Barnby
The Lord upholds all those who fall; * he lifts up those who are bowed down. The eyes of all wait upon you, O Lord, * and you give them their food in due season. You open wide your hand * and satisfy the needs of every living creature. The Lord is righteous in all his ways * and loving in all his works. The Lord is near to those who call upon him, * to all who call upon him faithfully. Sequence Hymn Hymn 635, v. 1 “If thou but trust in God to guide thee” Wer nur den lieben Gott

The Gospel Gospeler People
John 6:1-21 The Holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to John. Glory to you, Lord Christ.
Jesus went to the other side of the Sea of Galilee, also called the Sea of Tiberias. A large crowd kept following him, because they saw the signs that he was doing for the sick. Jesus went up the mountain and sat down there with his disciples. Now the Passover, the festival of the Jews, was near. When he looked up and saw a large crowd coming toward him, Jesus said to Philip, “Where are we to buy bread for these people to eat?” He said this to test him, for he himself knew what he was going to do. Philip answered him, “Six months’ wages would not buy enough bread for each of them to get a little.” One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, said to him, “There is a boy here who has five barley loaves and two fish. But what are they among so many people?” Jesus said, “Make the people sit down.” Now there was a great deal of grass in the place; so they sat down, about five thousand in all. Then Jesus took the loaves, and when he had given thanks, he distributed them to those who were seated; so also the fish, as much as they wanted. When they were satisfied, he told his disciples, “Gather up the fragments left over, so that nothing may be lost.” So they gathered them up, and from the fragments of the five barley loaves, left by those who had eaten, they filled twelve baskets. When the people saw the sign that he had done, they began to say, “This is indeed the prophet who is to come into the world.” When Jesus realized that they were about to come and take him by force to make him king, he withdrew again to the mountain by himself. When evening came, his disciples went down to the sea, got into a boat, and started across the sea to Capernaum. It was now dark, and Jesus had not yet come to them. The sea became rough because a strong wind was blowing. When they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus walking on the sea and coming near the boat, and they were terrified. But he said to them, “It is I; do not be afraid.” Then they wanted to take him into the boat, and immediately the boat reached the land toward which they were going. Gospeler People Seated

The Sermon
The Gospel of the Lord. Praise to you, Lord Christ. The Rev. Dr. Andrew Grosso
The Nicene Creed
BCP 358
Standing, spoken by All
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: by the power of the Holy Spirit he became incarnate from the Virgin Mary, and was made man. 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 and the Son. With the Father and the Son he is worshiped and glorified. He 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. Prayers of the People Form VI Lector In peace, we pray to you, Lord God.

Hymn S 129 Sanctus and Benedictus
Robert Powell
Holy and gracious Father: In your infinite love you made us for yourself, and, when we had fallen into sin and become subject to evil and death, you, in your mercy, sent Jesus Christ, your only and eternal Son, to share our human nature, to live and die as one of us, to reconcile us to you, the God and Father of all.
Sung by All
Standing or kneeling
He stretched out his arms upon the cross, and offered himself, in obedience to your will, a perfect sacrifice for the whole world. On the night he was handed over to suffering and death, 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.”
At the following words concerning the bread, the Celebrant is to hold it, or lay a hand upon it; and at the words concerning the cup, to hold or place a hand upon the cup and any other vessel containing wine to be consecrated.
Therefore we proclaim the mystery of faith: Christ has died. Christ is risen. Christ will come again.
Celebrant and People
We celebrate the memorial of our redemption, O Father, in this sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving. Recalling his death, resurrection, and ascension, we offer you these gifts.
The Celebrant continues
10
Sanctify them by your Holy Spirit to be for your people the Body and Blood of your Son, the holy food and drink of new and unending life in him. Sanctify us also that we may faithfully receive this holy Sacrament, and serve you in unity, constancy, and peace; and at the last day bring us with all your saints into the joy of your eternal kingdom. All this we ask through your Son Jesus Christ: 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. AMEN. And now, as our Savior Christ has taught us, we are bold to say, Celebrant and 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. Fraction Anthem: S154
