Our 10am service commences with this hymn1. There’s a wideness in God’s mercy,like the wideness of the sea;there's a kindness in his justice,which is more than liberty.

2. There is no place where earth’s sorrowsand more felt than up in heaven;there is no place where earth’s failings have such kindly judgement given.

3. But we make his love too narrowby false limits of our own;and we magnify his strictnesswith a zeal he will not own.

4. There is plentiful redemptionin the blood that has been shed,there is joy for all the membersin the sorrows of the Head.

5. For the love of God is broaderthan the scope of human mind,and the heart of the Eternalis most wonderfully kind.

6. If our love were but more simple,we should take him at his word;and our hearts would find assurancein the promise of the Lord.Priest I runga i te Ingoa o te Atua, te Matua, te Tama me te Wairua

Tapu. Amine. (In the name of God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Amen.)

Te Pouhere SundayTe Rātapu o te Pouhere

8am HymnsOffertory: There’s a wideness in God’s mercy - Page 1Recessional: Make me a channel of your peace – page 6

The model adopted in 1992 when the Anglican Church revised its constitution was designed to ‘provide for the three partners to order their affairs within their own cultural context’. It was seen by many in the Church at the time as a way of honouring the Treaty of Waitangi. So Te Pouhere Sunday was designated by General Synod to celebrate our life as a three Tikanga Church. Today we gather as the people of God to celebrate our unity as a Three Tikanga Church: Maori, Pakeha and Pasefika. We also celebrate our unity with fellow Christians around the Pacific Ocean, giving thanks for their witness to God who knows no boundaries of race, language, politics or tradition.

The Confession and Absolution / Te Hohou-i-te-rongo Please sit.

Priest Let us then open ourselves to the Lord and confess our sins in penitence and faith. [Silence]We are not always the people we would like to be. We are coming to recognise that we carry many forms of personal prejudice, and that many of our processes and organisations are incapable of carrying reliable sustained justice for indigenous peoples.

All We claim to be a community of grace and love, but we sometimes fail to care compassionately and unreservedly for those who are different to us.

Priest God is faithful to us to the end of time. Nothing can separate us from the love of God. Forgive us, O God, and restore us to right relationships, with all who suffer injustice. Thanks be to God.

All Amen.

The Gloria is sung, as a cry of thanksgiving to God.

All Glory to God in the highest, and peace to God’s people on earth. Lord God, heavenly King, almighty God and Father, we worship you, we give you thanks, we praise you for your glory.

Lord Jesus Christ, only Son of the Father, Lord God, Lamb of God, you take away the sin of the world: have mercy on us; youare seated at the right hand of the Father: receive our prayer.

A member of the Community of the Cross of Nails Page 2

For you alone are the Holy One, you alone are the Lord, you alone are the Most High, Jesus Christ, with the Holy Spirit, in the glory of God the Father. Amen.

The Collect – Gathering Prayer – is said together / Hei konei te inoi o te rä

All Creator God, you make the sun to give light in the day, the moonand the stars for guidance at night, you divided the seas making a path through the waters. Grant that, sailing out in our canoes of Tikanga Pākehā, Tikanga Māori, and Tikanga Pasefika, we may follow the way you have charted for us and from our separate home ports find our common destination in you. We askthis through your Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, Amen

Please be seated for the Readings / Nga Karaipiture – E noho

Reader A Reading from the book of the Prophet Isaiah [chapter 42:10-20]Sing to the Lord a new song, his praise from the end of the earth!Let the sea roar and all that fills it, the coastlands and their inhabitants. Let the desert and its towns lift up their voice, the villages that Kedar inhabits; let the inhabitants of Sela sing for joy, let them shout from the tops of the mountains. Let themgive glory to the Lord, and declare his praise in the coastlands. The Lord goes forth like a soldier, like a warrior he stirs up his fury;he cries out, he shouts aloud, he shows himself mighty against his foes. For a long time I have held my peace, I have kept still and restrained myself; now I will cry out like a woman in labour, I will gasp and pant. I will lay waste mountains and hills, and dry up all their herbage;I will turn the rivers into islands, and dry up the pools. I will lead the blind by a road they do not know, by paths they have not known I will guide them.I will turn the darkness before them into light, the rough places into level ground.These are the things I will do, and I will not forsake them. They shall be turned back and utterly put to shame— those who trust in carved images,who say to cast images, ‘You are our gods.’ Listen, you that are deaf; and you that are blind, look up and see! Who is blind but my servant, or deaf like my messenger whom I send?Who is blind like my dedicated one, or blind like the servant of the Lord? He sees many things, but does not observe them; his ears are open, but he does not hear.

Hear what the Spirit is saying to the Church.

All Thanks be to God.Reader A Reading from the second letter of Paul to the Corinthians

[chapter 5:14-19]

Welcome to our Interim Cathedral in the Peace Hall Page 3

For the love of Christ urges us on, because we are convinced that one has died for all; therefore all have died. And he died for all, so that those who live might live no longer for themselves, but for him who died and was raised for them.

From now on, therefore, we regard no one from a human point of view; even though we once knew Christ from a human point of view, we know him no longer in that way. So if anyone is in Christ, there is a new creation: everything old has passed away; see, everything has become new! All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation; that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting the message of reconciliation to us.

Hear what the Spirit is saying to the Church.

All Thanks be to God.At 10am we sing this hymn in preparation for the Gospel

1. Tama ngakau marie,Tama a t’Atua, tenei tonu matou,arohaina mai.

2. Murua ra nga hara.Wetekina mai, enei here kino,whakararu nei.3. Takahia ki raro,tau e kino ai; kei pa kaha tonu,ko nga mahi he.

4. Homai he arohamou i mate nei. Tenei ra, e Ihu,takina e koe.

5. Tenei arahinaa tutuki noa: puta i te pouri,whiwhi hari nui.[Repeat Verse 1]

Please stand and turn to face the Gospel and the Cross... / Ka tu te katoa

A member of the Community of the Cross of Nails Page 4

English Translation 1. Son of peace Son of God, we are gathered; Show us compassion.

2. Wipe away our sins, unshackle them, These evil ties that are so troublesome. 3. Trample down things evil to you lest they gather strength, all evil deeds.

4. Grant (that we may have) love for You who died (May) this be so Jesus, (that) you lead us.

5. (May) this (then be); lead us to the end, (so that we may) overcome darkness and attain paradise

Reader Hear the Holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ, according to St Luke [chapter 6:46-49]

All (Sung at the 10am Service) Praise and Glory to God. ‘Why do you call me “Lord, Lord”, and do not do what I tell you? I will show you what someone is like who comes to me, hears my words, and acts on them. That one is like a man building a house, who dug deeply and laid the foundation on rock; when a flood arose, the river burst against that house but could not shake it,because it had been well built. But the one who hears and does not act is like a man who built a house on the ground without a foundation. When the river burst against it, immediately it fell, and great was the ruin of that house.’

This is the Gospel of Christ.

All (Sung at the 10am Service) Praise to Christ the Word.

There follows the sermon / Te Kauwhau The preacher today is Archdeacon Trevor.

Our Intercessions begin with...

Intercessor God of creative energy, and great imaginings, help us as we seek ways to re-shape our nation in the honouring of the Treaty of Waitangi and the Declaration of Independence that proceeded it. Help us to find new experiences of being Christianin Aotearoa that will prepare us as Pakeha/ Tauiwi to even take part in such a responsibility.

children of the world – open to the newness and freshness of life when it is offered in safety and with imagination. Amen

...and end with The Lord's Prayer/Te Inoi a te Ariki (Sung at 10am)

Priest Kua akona nei tatou e to tatou Ariki, ka inoi tatou

All E tō mātou Matua i te rangi, kia tapu tōu Ingoa. Kia tae mai tōu rangatiratanga. Kia meatia tāu e pai ai, ki runga ki te whenua, kia rite anō ki tō te rangi. Hōmai ki a mātou āianei he taro mā mātou mō tēnei rā. Murua ō mātou hara, me mātou hoki e muru nei, i ō te hunga e hara ana ki a mātou. Aua hoki mātou e kawea kia whakawaia. Engari whakaorangia mātou i te kino: nōu hoki te rangatiratanga, te kaha, me te korōria, Āke āke āke. Āmine.Our Parent in heaven Sacred be your name. May your chiefly rule come May ithappen as seems good to you on the earth, in the same way as it is in heaven. Give us now our bread for this day.

Yours also the chiefly rule, the strength, and the glory. Ever and ever and ever. Amen.

At 8am we sing “There’s a wideness in God’s mercy” on page 1

1. Make me a channel of your peace. Where there is hatred, let me bring your love. Where there is injury, your pardon, Lord, and where there’s doubt, true faith in you.

O Master, grant that I may never seek, so much to be consoled as to console,to be understood, as to understand, to be loved, as to love with all my soul.

A member of the Community of the Cross of Nails Page 6

2. Make me a channel of your peace.Where there’s despair in life, let me bring hope. Where there is darkness, only light,and where there's sadness, ever joy.

3. Make me a channel of your peace.It is in pardoning that we are pardoned,in giving of ourselves that we receive, and in dying that we’re born to eternal life.

The Preparation of the Gifts / Te Whakatikatika I Te Ohaoha

Priest Father, how wonderful your care for us! How boundless your merciful love! To ransom slaves, you gave away your Son!

through Jesus Christ. You said, ‘Let there be light’; there was light. Your light shines on in our darkness. For you the earth has brought forth life in all its forms. You have created us to hear your Word, to do your will and to be fulfilled in your love. It is right to thank you. You sent your Son to be for us the way we need to follow and the truth we need to know. You sent your Son to give his life to release us from our sin. His cross has taken our guilt away. You send your Holy Spirit to strengthen and to guide, to warn and to revive your Church. Therefore, with all your witnesses who surround us on every side, countless as heaven’s stars, we praise you for our creation and our calling, with loving and with joyful hearts:

All 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.

Welcome to our Interim Cathedral in the Peace Hall Page 7

Blessed are you, most holy, in your Son, who washed his disciples’ feet. ‘I am among you,’ he said, ‘as one who serves.’

Ka whawhati, ka hoatu kiākonga, ā, ka mea: Tangohia, kainga, ko tōku tinana tēnei kahoatu nei mō koutou meinga tēnei heiwhakamahara ki ahau.

On that night before he died he took bread and gave you thanks. He broke it, gave it to his disciples, and said:Take, eat, this is my body which is given for you; do thisto remember me. After supper, he took the cup, and gave you thanks. He gaveit to them and said: Drink this. It is my blood of the new covenant, shed for you, shed for all, to forgive sin; do this to remember me. Therefore with this bread and wine we recall your goodness to us.

Lamb of God, you take away the sin of the world: have mercy on us. Lamb of God, you take away the sin of the world: have mercy on us. Lamb of God, you take away the sin of the world: grant us your peace.
