Priest-in-Charge:  Amen.  Let us hear again the Good News of salvation.

A Reading from Acts 2:1-21

When the day of Pentecost had come, the disciples were all together in one place.  And suddenly from heaven there came a sound like the rush of a violent wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting.  Divided tongues, as of fire, appeared among them, and a tongue rested on each of them.  All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other languages, as the Spirit gave them ability.

Now there were devout Jews from every nation under heaven living in Jerusalem.  And at this sound the crowd gathered and was bewildered, because each one heard them speaking in the native language of each.  Amazed and astonished, they asked, “Are not all these who are speaking Galileans?  And how is it that we hear, each of us, in our own native language?  Parthians, Medes, Elamites, and residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya belonging to Cyrene, and visitors from Rome, both Jews and proselytes, Cretans and Arabs-- in our own languages we hear them speaking about God’s deeds of power.” All were amazed and perplexed, saying to one another, “What does this mean?” But others sneered and said, “They are filled with new wine.”

But Peter, standing with the eleven, raised his voice and addressed them, “Men of Judea and all who live in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and listen to what I say.  Indeed, these are not drunk, as you suppose, for it is only nine o’clock in the morning.  No, this is what was spoken through the prophet Joel:

`In the last days it will be, God declares,

that I will pour out my Spirit upon all flesh,
and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,

and your young men shall see visions,
and your old men shall dream dreams.

Even upon my slaves, both men and women,
in those days I will pour out my Spirit;
and they shall prophesy.

And I will show portents in the heaven above
and signs on the earth below,
blood, and fire, and smoky mist.

The sun shall be turned to darkness
and the moon to blood,
before the coming of the Lord’s great and glorious day.

Then everyone who calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.’ “

Reader:  Hear what the Spirit is saying to God’s People.

People:  Thanks be to God.

Psalm 104:25-35, 37

We will speak responsively by verse

25 O Lord, how manifold are your works! *
in wisdom you have made them all;
the earth is full of your creatures.

26 Yonder is the great and wide sea
with its living things too many to number, *
creatures both small and great.

27 There move the ships,
and there is that Leviathan, *
which you have made for the sport of it.

28 All of them look to you *
to give them their food in due season.

29 You give it to them; they gather it; *
you open your hand, and they are filled with good things.

30 You hide your face, and they are terrified; *
you take away their breath,
and they die and return to their dust.

31 You send forth your Spirit, and they are created; *
and so you renew the face of the earth.

32 May the glory of the Lord endure for ever; *
may the Lord rejoice in all his works.

33 He looks at the earth and it trembles; *
he touches the mountains and they smoke.

34 I will sing to the Lord as long as I live; *
I will praise my God while I have my being.

35 May these words of mine please him; *
I will rejoice in the Lord.

37 Bless the Lord, O my soul. *
Hallelujah!

A Reading from Romans 8:22-27

We know that the whole creation has been groaning in labor pains until now; and not only the creation, but we ourselves, who have the first fruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly while we wait for adoption, the redemption of our bodies.  For in hope we were saved.  Now hope that is seen is not hope.  For who hopes for what is seen?  But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait for it with patience.

Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we ought, but that very Spirit intercedes with sighs too deep for words.  And God, who searches the heart, knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.

Reader:  Hear what the Spirit is saying to God’s People.

People:  Thanks be to God.

Hymnal #516

Come Down, O Love Divine

1 Come down, O Love divine,
seek thou this soul of mine,
and visit it with thine own ardor glowing;
O Comforter, draw near,
within my heart appear,
and kindle it, thy holy flame bestowing.

2 O let it freely burn,
till earthly passions turn
to dust and ashes in its heat consuming;
and let thy glorious light
shine ever on my sight,
and clothe me round, the while my path illuming.

3 And so the yearning strong,
with which the soul will long,
shall far outpass the power of human telling;
for none can guess its grace,
till Love create a place
wherein the Holy Spirit makes a dwelling.

Deacon: The Holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to John (15:26-27;16:4b-15)

Glory to you, Lord Christ.

Jesus said to his disciples, ”When the Advocate comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who comes from the Father, he will testify on my behalf.  You also are to testify because you have been with me from the beginning.

“I did not say these things to you from the beginning, because I was with you. But now I am going to him who sent me; yet none of you asks me, ‘Where are you going?’ But because I have said these things to you, sorrow has filled your hearts. Nevertheless I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the Advocate will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.  And when he comes, he will prove the World wrong about sin and righteousness and judgment: about sin, because they do not believe in me; about righteousness, because I am going to the Father and you will see me no longer; about judgment, because the ruler of this World has been condemned.

“I still have many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now.  When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth; for he will not speak on his own, but will speak whatever he hears, and he will declare to you the things that are to come.  He will glorify me, because he will take what is mine and declare it to you.  All that the Father has is mine. For this reason I said that he will take what is mine and declare it to you.

The Gospel of the Lord.

Praise to you, Lord Christ.

The Bishop blesses the water, first saying

Bishop: The Lord be with you.

People: And also with you.

Bishop: Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.

People: It is right to give him thanks and praise.

Bishop:  Michele, candidates for baptism, people of the Church of Epiphany, Clarks Summit: in Holy Baptism, we received full adoption through God’s grace and full empowerment for ministry through the Holy Spirit.  Will you work together as partners in the mission of the Church to reconcile all people to God through Christ?

People:  We will, with God’s help.

Bishop:  The water of baptism signifies our eternal covenant with God.  In it, we are buried with Christ in his death.  By it, we share in his resurrection.  Through it, we are reborn by the Holy Spirit.  Therefore, in joyful obedience to Christ, we bring into his fellowship those who come to him in faith, baptizing them in the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.

Bishop:  We pray you, O God, sanctify this water by the power of your Holy Spirit, that all who in baptism are cleansed from sin and born again may continue for ever in the risen life of Jesus Christ our Savior.

The Baptism p 307

Each candidate is presented by name to the Rev. Michele,

who then pours water upon the candidate, saying.

Rev. Michele:  Avalon, I baptize you in the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.  Amen.

When this action has been completed for all candidates, Rev. Michele, at a place in full sight of the congregation, prays over them, saying.

Rev. Michele:  Let us pray.  Heavenly Father, we thank you that by water and the Holy Spirit you have bestowed upon these your servants the forgiveness of sin, and have raised them to the new life of grace.  Sustain them, O Lord, in your Holy Spirit.  Give them an inquiring and discerning heart, the courage to will and to persevere, a spirit to know and to love you, and the gift of joy and wonder in all your works.  Amen.

Rev. Michele places a hand on the person’s head,

and saying to each one.

Announcement by Rev. Michele about communion.

In the Episcopal tradition, all are welcomed to the Table; come to the altar rail and kneel to receive if you are able, or you may stand.  If you are unable to come to the rail, please indicate to an usher that you would like communion brought to you.

All baptized Christians may receive communion.  You have these choices:

• To receive bread and wine, you may hold out both hands.

• To receive only bread, place one arm across your chest and hold out your hand.

• To receive a blessing, you may cross your arms over your chest.

The Holy Communion p 361

The newly baptized bring the people’s offerings

of bread and wine.

Addressing the Priest-in-Charge, they say

Oblation Bearers: Michele, when we share the bread and the cup, we proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes.  Join us at God’s Table to offer and bless our gifts of bread and wine.

Rev. Michele:  Amen.  Together, let us keep the feast.

The deacon brings the elements to the Table,

People: Amen.

The Great Thanksgiving p 361

Celebrant: The Lord be with you.

People: And also with you

Celebrant: Lift up your hearts.

People:  We lift them to the Lord.

Celebrant: Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.

People:  It is right to give him thanks and praise.

Celebrant: It is right, and a good and joyful thing, always and everywhere to give thanks to you, Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth.

Because in Jesus Christ our Lord you have received us as your sons and daughters, made us citizens of your kingdom, and given us the Holy Spirit to guide us into all truth.

Therefore we praise you, joining our voices with Angels and Archangels and with all the company of heaven, who for ever sing this hymn to proclaim the glory of your Name:

Sanctus: Hymnal #S 129:  

Holy, Holy, Holy Lord,

God of power and might,

heaven and earth are full of your glory.

Hosanna in the highest.

Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.

Hosanna in the highest.

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. 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." Therefore we proclaim the mystery of faith:

Christ has died.

Christ is risen.

Christ will come again.

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. 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.

The Lord’s Prayer

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.
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.

Closing Hymn 506

Praise the Spirit in Creation

1 Praise the Spirit in creation,

breath of God, life’s origin:

Spirit, moving on the waters,

quickening worlds to life within,

source of breath to all things breathing,

life in whom all lives begin.

2 Praise the Spirit, close companion

of our inmost thoughts and ways;

who, in showing us God’s wonders,

is himself the power to gaze;

and God’s will, to those who listen

by a still small voice conveys.

3 Praise the Spirit, who enlightened

priests and prophets with the word;

his the truth behind the wisdoms

which as yet know not our Lord;
by whose love and power, in Jesus

God himself was seen and heard.

4 Tell of how the ascended Jesus

armed a people for his own;
how a hundred men and women

turned the known world upside down,

to its dark and furthest corners

by the wind of heaven blown.

5 Pray we then, O Lord the Spirit,

on our lives descend in might;
let your flame break out within us,

fire our hearts and clear our sight,

till, white hot in your possession,

we, too, set the world alight.

6 Praise, O praise the Holy Spirit,

praise the Father, praise the Word,

Source, and Truth, and Inspiration,

Trinity in deep accord:

through your voice which speaks within us,

we, your creatures, call you Lord.

Dismissal

Deacon:  Go in peace to love and serve the Lord, Alleluia, Alleluia!

Thanks be to God. Alleluia, alleluia.
