Tell all the world of Jesus ,
Our Saviour, Lord and King;
And let the whole creation
Of his salvation sing:
Proclaim his glorious greatness,
In nature and in grace,
Creator and Redeemer,
The Lord of time and space.
Tell all the world of Jesus,
That everyone may find
The joy of his forgiveness
True peace of heart and mind.
Proclaim his perfect goodness,
His deep, unfailing care,
His love so rich in mercy,
A love beyond compare
Tell all the world of Jesus,
That everyone may know
Of his almighty triumph
Defeating every foe.
Proclaim his coming glory,
When sin is overthrown,
And he shall reign in splendour
The King upon his throne!

OLD TESTAMENT READING
2 Samuel 5: 1-5, 9-10
A reading from the first book of
Samuel.
1 Then all the tribes of Israel came to
David at Hebron, and said, "Look, we
are
your
bone
and
flesh.
2 For some time, while Saul was king
over us, it was you who led out Israel
and brought it in. The LORD said to
you: It is you who shall be shepherd of
my people Israel, you who shall be
ruler over Israel."
3 So all the elders of Israel came to the
king at Hebron; and King David made a
covenant with them at Hebron before
the LORD, and they anointed David
king over Israel.
4 David was thirty years old when he
began to reign, and he reigned forty
years.
5 At Hebron he reigned over Judah
seven years and six months; and at
Jerusalem he reigned over all Israel
and
Judah
thirty-three
years.
9 David occupied the stronghold, and
named it the city of David. David built
the city all around from the Millo
inward.
10 And David became greater and
greater, for the LORD, the God of
hosts, was with him.
This is the word of the Lord
Thanks be to God
Psalm 48
R Great is the Lord, great is the Lord
and greatly to be praised.
Great is the LORD and greatly to be
praised in the city of our God. His holy
mountain, beautiful in elevation, is the
joy of all the earth, Mount Zion, in the
far north, the city of the great King.
Within its citadels God has shown
himself a sure defense. R
Then the kings assembled, they came
on together. As soon as they saw it,
they were astounded; they were in
panic, they took to flight; R
trembling took hold of them there,
pains as of a woman in labour,
as when an east wind shatters the
ships of Tarshish. As we have heard, so
have we seen in the city of the LORD of
hosts, in the city of our God, which
God establishes forever. R
We ponder your steadfast love, O God,
in the midst of your temple.
Your name, O God, like your praise,
reaches to the ends of the earth. Your
right hand is filled with victory.
Let Mount Zion be glad, let the towns
of Judah rejoice because of your
judgments. R
Walk about Zion, go all around it,
count its towers, consider well its
ramparts; go through its citadels, that
2
you may tell the next generation that
this is God, our God forever and ever.
He will be our guide forever. R
NEW TESTAMENT READING
2 Corinthians 12.2–10
A reading from the second letter of
Paul to the Corinthians.
2 I know a person in Christ who
fourteen years ago was caught up to
the third heaven – whether in the body
or out of the body I do not know; God
knows.
3 And I know that such a person –
whether in the body or out of the body
I do not know; God knows –
4 was caught up into Paradise and
heard things that are not to be told,
that no mortal is permitted to repeat.
5 On behalf of such a one I will boast,
but on my own behalf I will not boast,
except of my weaknesses.
6 But if I wish to boast, I will not be a
fool, for I will be speaking the truth.
But I refrain from it, so that no one
may think better of me than what is
seen in me or heard from me,
7 even considering the exceptional
character of the revelations. Therefore,
to keep me from being too elated, a
thorn was given me in the flesh, a
messenger of Satan to torment me, to
keep me from being too elated.
8 Three times I appealed to the Lord
about this, that it would leave me,
9 but he said to me, ‘My grace is
sufficient for you, for power is made
perfect in weakness.’ So, I will boast all
the more gladly of my weaknesses, so
that the power of Christ may dwell in
me.
10 Therefore I am content with
weaknesses,
insults,
hardships,
persecutions, and calamities for the
sake of Christ; for whenever I am weak,
then I am strong.
This is the word of the Lord
Thanks be to God
Gradual Hymn: 194
Gospel Reading
Mark 6.1–13
Alleluia, alleluia.
We do not live by bread alone,
but by every word that comes
from the mouth of God.
Alleluia.
The Lord be with you
And also with you
Hear the gospel of our Lord Jesus
Christ according to Mark.
Glory to you O Lord
1 Jesus came to his home town, and his
disciples followed him.
2 On the sabbath he began to teach in
the synagogue, and many who heard
him were astounded. They said,
‘Where did this man get all this? What
is this wisdom that has been given to
him? What deeds of power are being
done by his hands!
3 Is not this the carpenter, the son of
Mary and brother of James and Joses
and Judas and Simon, and are not his
sisters here with us?’ And they took
offence at him.
3
4 Then Jesus said to them, ‘Prophets
are not without honour, except in their
home town, and among their own kin,
and in their own house.’
5 And he could do no deed of power
there, except that he laid his hands on
a few sick people and cured them.
6 And he was amazed at their unbelief.
Then he went about among the villages
teaching.
7 He called the twelve and began to
send them out two by two, and gave
them authority over the unclean
spirits.
8 He ordered them to take nothing for
their journey except a staff; no bread,
no bag, no money in their belts;
9 but to wear sandals and not to put
on two tunics.
10 He said to them, ‘Wherever you
enter a house, stay there until you
leave the place.
11 If any place will not welcome you
and they refuse to hear you, as you
leave, shake off the dust that is on your
feet as a testimony against them.’
12 So they went out and proclaimed
that all should repent.
13 They cast out many demons, and
anointed with oil many who were sick
and cured them.

FOOD BANK
Lindsay Park Baptist Church, together
with all the churches in Kingsbury, hope
to open a satellite to the Brent food bank
at Lindsay Park in September. Plans are
for one afternoon a week (day to be
confirmed, but Monday to Thursday) for
about three hours. Six helpers will be
needed each time, to meet and greet, fill
bags with food and make tea. It is hoped
we can find at least 12 helpers, thus
making it a fortnightly commitment. If
you would like to be involved in this
5
work of Christ's mission, please see
Angela Hopkins.
