4:00pm Church@4 – Rural Mission Sunday
Welcome and Opening Prayer
Grace, mercy and peace from God our Father
and the Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
And also with you.
This is the day that the Lord has made.
Let us rejoice and be glad in it.
Loving Lord,
fill us with your life-giving,
joy-giving, peace-giving presence,
that we may praise you now with our lips
and all day long with our lives
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
Hymn
1. Colours of day dawn into the mind,
the sun has come up, the night is behind.
Go down in the city, into the street,
and let's give the message
to the people we meet.
So light up the fire and let the flame burn,
open the door, let Jesus return.
Take seeds of his Spirit, let the fruit grow,
tell the people of Jesus, let his love show.
2. Go through the park, on into the town;
the sun still shines on;, it never goes down.
The light of the world is risen again;
the people of darkness are needing a friend.
3. Open your eyes, look into the sky,
the darkness has come, the sun came to die.
The evening draws on, the sun disappears,
but Jesus is living, his Spirit is near.

Confession
We come to God to say sorry
Lord we have done wrong
in thought, word and deed,
We are truly sorry and we ask you to forgive us
Help us by your Holy Spirit to live a new life.
Amen.
May Almighty God have mercy upon us,
forgive us our sins
and bring us to everlasting life.
Amen.
Bible Reading – Mark 4.26-34
Jesus said, ‘The kingdom of God is as if someone would scatter seed on the ground, and
would sleep and rise night and day, and the seed would sprout and grow, he does not
know how. The earth produces of itself, first the stalk, then the head, then the full grain
in the head. But when the grain is ripe, at once he goes in with his sickle, because the
harvest has come.’
Jesus also said, ‘With what can we compare the kingdom of God, or what parable will we
use for it? It is like a mustard seed, which, when sown upon the ground, is the smallest of
all the seeds on earth; yet when it is sown it grows up and becomes the greatest of all
shrubs, and puts forth large branches, so that the birds of the air can make nests in its
shade.’ With many such parables he spoke the word to them, as they were able to hear
it; he did not speak to them except in parables, but he explained everything in private to
his disciples.

Hymn
1. For the fruits of all creation,
thanks be to God;
for the gifts to every nation,
thanks be to God;
for the ploughing, sowing, reaping,
silent growth while we are sleeping,
future needs in earth’s safe keeping,
thanks be to God.
2. In the just reward of labour,
God’s will is done;
in the help we give our neighbour,
God’s will is done;
in our world-wide task of caring
for the hungry and despairing,
in the harvests we are sharing,
God’s will is done.
3. For the harvests of his Spirit,
thanks be to God;
for the good we all inherit,
thanks be to God;
for the wonders that astound us,
for the truths that still confound us,
most of all, that love has found us,
thanks be to God.

Prayers
The Lord’s Prayer
Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name;
thy kingdom come; thy will be done;
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation;
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory,
for ever and ever. Amen.

Hymn
You shall go out with joy and be led forth with peace;
and the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you.
There'll be shouts of joy and all the trees of the field
shall clap, shall clap their hands,
and the trees of the field shall clap their hands,
and the trees of the field shall clap their hands,
and the trees of the field shall clap their hands,
and you’ll go out with joy.
Words: based on Isaiah 55.12, Stuart Dauermann (b 1944)

Prayers and Readings
The new edition, from July to
November is now available to pick up
from Oakham Church. It gives
suggestions for daily reading and
prayer from 10th July to 12th
November 2016. You can also
download a copy from the website.
Christian Aid Week
Churches Together raised £2,800 this
year – a lower amount than last year,
but using fewer collectors. Brooke and
Langham both collected more than last
year. Christian Aid likes different ways
to raise money, and were glad that we
made almost £1,000 with our Lent
Lunches. The Methodist Church are
holding ‘Open Gardens’ for a charge.
Details for the week are still to be
published. Peter Townsend.
Greenbelt 2016
Families and individuals will be attending
the Sunday morning service at the
Greenbelt Festival on Sunday 28 August,
where Archbishop Justin Welby will be
answering questions put to him by young
people. For more information and to
book tickets visit the Greenbelt website:
www.greenbelt.org.uk/local-church-
offers/. Tickets for the service are free for
us who live in Peterborough diocese and
you can ‘top up’ your ticket to include the
afternoon for £25 whilst under 25s go
free for the whole day. If you intend to
come, please be in touch with Dominic
and we will arrange to meet up on site
and provide lifts for any who need it.
Traidcraft
The Traidcraft stall will be present in
Church after the 10:30 service today
and 31st July. Please do have a look at
what Traidcraft has to offer and even if
you don't need to buy anything consider
making a donation to the very
worthwhile work of Traidcraft
Exchange. If you would like any more
information about the work of
Traidcraft in the field of Fairtrade don't
hesitate to get in touch. Denise 722729.
Faculty Applications
Oakham PCC have applied for
permissions for two projects to be
undertaken in the autumn.
A. A development of the memorial
garden on the south side of the
church: Following a generous offer
from Oakham in Bloom, it is proposed
to replant the south side garden as a
memorial space. We are grateful for all
11
who, up to now, have kept this area
looking so beautiful, particularly,
particularly Graham Scothern for his
recent work, and we are sure that this
new scheme will only enhance this area
of the churchyard.
B. Proposal for the replacement of the
boiler: A new boiler is proposed to be
installed in the upstairs parish office.
Public notification was displayed on
Wednesday 22 June. Parishioners
have until 20 July to lodge any
objections. More detailed plans are
available for inspection in the parish
office or on the website.
Come and Chat
Bereavement Support
Group
For the last 3 years we have been
running a Bereavement Support group
in the Parish Hall. It has been for
people of all faiths or none, for those
recently bereaved or those who are
still aching after many years.
However, particularly since Hildred
left, it has become clear that we are
not meeting people’s needs, so the
meetings on the first Thursday of the
month in the Parish Hall will now
stop. We are planning to re-launch
the service in the autumn, in a
different format. To help provide
something useful, we have drawn up a
short questionnaire to ask those who
are bereaved what would help.
If you have lost a loved one – recently
or further back, please fill in one of
the Questionnaires which will be at
the back of Oakham Church, or from
the website. Sian Cheverton.
