Remembrance Sunday

Sacrifice
theme runs through our liturgies deeply today

Hebrew Bible
sacrifice - different types and different reasons
Abraham - Isaac

Jesus
essence of fulfilment
essence of transformation
supreme sacrifice

Disciples
called to share in this
"follow me"
means sharing in this sacrifice

Remembrance Sunday
human sacrifice
examples of service
dedication & love which speak to us

"Accept through him, our great High Priest, this our sacrifice of praise."
Eucharistic Prayer

Brings together
thanks
calling
prayers for the church and the world.
