Co-Celebrant: The Holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to John (John 14:1-7)
People: Glory to you, Lord Christ.
"Do not let your hearts be troubled. Believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house there are
many dwelling places. If it were not so, would I have told you that 1 go to prepare a place for you? An<
if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, so that where I am,
there you may be also. And you know the way to the place where I am going." Thomas said to him,
"Lord, we do not know where you are going. How can we know the way?" Jesus said to him, "I am the
way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. [NRSV]
Celebrant: The Gospel of the Lord.
People: Praise to you, Lord Christ.
Homily The Rev. Antonio (Tony) Regist- Interim Rector
Co- Celebrant The Rev. Clifford Waller:
In the assurance of eternal life given at Baptism, let us proclaim our faith and say,
Co-Celebrant and People:
I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord. He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit anc
born of the Virgin Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He de-
scended to the dead. On the third day he rose again. He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the
right hand of the Father. He will come again to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.
Co-Celebrant continues:
For our brother James., let us pray to our Lord Jesus Christ who said, I am Resurrection and I am
Life."
Lord, you consoled Martha and Mary in their distress; draw near to us who mourn for James., and dry
the tears of those who weep.
People: Hear us, Lord.
Co- Celebrant: You wept at the grave of Lazarus, your friend; comfort us in our sorrow.
People: Hear us, Lord.
Co- Celebrant: You raised the dead to life; give to our brother (sister) eternal life.
People: Hear us, Lord.
Co- Celebrant: You promised paradise to the thief who repented; bring our brother James to the joys
ofheaven.
People: Hear us, Lord.
Co- Celebrant: Our brother James was washed in Baptism and anointed with the Holy Spirit; give
him fellowship with all your saints. People: Hear us, Lord,
Co- Celebrant: He was nourished with your Body and Blood; grant him a place at the table in your
heavenly kingdom. People : Hear us, Lord.
Co- Celebrant: Comfort us in our sorrows at the death of our brother James; let our faith be our con-
solation, and eternal life our hope. s
