Opening Hymn: O For A Thousand Tongues To Sing

Sentence of the Day

Jesus revealed his glory, and his disciples believed in him.
John 2:11

Collect of the Day

We pray you, Jesus,
take the old water,
our busy, conscientious lives,
and turn them into gospel wine,
that everyone may see your life
and thirst;
Hear this prayer for your name’s sake.
Amen.

Lesson

Isaiah 62:1-5

1 For Zion’s sake I will not keep silent,
 for Jerusalem’s sake I will not remain quiet,
till her vindication shines out like the dawn,
 her salvation like a blazing torch.
2 The nations will see your vindication,
 and all kings your glory;
you will be called by a new name
 that the mouth of the Lord will bestow.
3 You will be a crown of splendor in the Lord’s hand,
 a royal diadem in the hand of your God.
4 No longer will they call you Deserted,
 or name your land Desolate.
But you will be called Hephzibah,
 and your land Beulah;
for the Lord will take delight in you,
 and your land will be married.
5 As a young man marries a young woman,
 so will your Builder marry you;
as a bridegroom rejoices over his bride,
 so will your God rejoice over you.

Epistle

1 Corinthians 12:1-11

1 Now about the gifts of the Spirit, brothers and sisters, I do not want you to be uninformed. 2 You know that when you were pagans, somehow or other you were influenced and led astray to mute idols. 3 Therefore I want you to know that no one who is speaking by the Spirit of God says, “Jesus be cursed,” and no one can say, “Jesus is Lord,” except by the Holy Spirit.

4 There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit distributes them. 5 There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord. 6 There are different kinds of working, but in all of them and in everyone it is the same God at work.

7 Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good. 8 To one there is given through the Spirit a message of wisdom, to another a message of knowledge by means of the same Spirit, 9 to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by that one Spirit, 10 to another miraculous powers, to another prophecy, to another distinguishing between spirits, to another speaking in different kinds of tongues, and to still another the interpretation of tongues. 11 All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, and he distributes them to each one, just as he determines.

Gradual Hymn: Be Still

Gospel

John 2:1-11

1 On the third day a wedding took place at Cana in Galilee. Jesus’ mother was there, 2 and Jesus and his disciples had also been invited to the wedding. 3 When the wine was gone, Jesus’ mother said to him, “They have no more wine.”

4 “Woman, why do you involve me?” Jesus replied. “My hour has not yet come.”

5 His mother said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you.”

6 Nearby stood six stone water jars, the kind used by the Jews for ceremonial washing, each holding from twenty to thirty gallons.

7 Jesus said to the servants, “Fill the jars with water”; so they filled them to the brim.

8 Then he told them, “Now draw some out and take it to the master of the banquet.”

They did so, 9 and the master of the banquet tasted the water that had been turned into wine. He did not realize where it had come from, though the servants who had drawn the water knew. Then he called the bridegroom aside 10 and said, “Everyone brings out the choice wine first and then the cheaper wine after the guests have had too much to drink; but you have saved the best till now.”

11 What Jesus did here in Cana of Galilee was the first of the signs through which he revealed his glory; and his disciples believed in him.
