When Pain of the World
(VU 598, verse 3)

The church is a holy vessel
The living waters fill
To nourish all it's people,
God's purpose to fulfill.
May God with all creation,
May we with humble courage
Be open to God's will.
We are called to follow Jesus
And let God's spirit flow through us.













Call to Worship

Come all of you. Be welcome in this church and let
us worship together!
We come to celebrate the gift of children and
the gift of life.

Find in yourself the beautiful child that you were
years ago.
The child in us is never very far.
Keep in touch with the beautiful qualities of childhood.
And praise God for everything that you have and
that you are.
May God bless us all and bless the child in us.




Gather Us In (Rassemble-nous)
(MV 7)

Gather us in, ground us in you.
Gather us in, ground us in you.
Gather us in, gather us in,
ground us, ground us in you.

Rassemble-nous, tout près de toi.
Rassemble-nous, tout près de toi.
rassemble-nous, rassemble-nous,
tout près, tout près de toi.






Make a Joyful Noise
(VU 820)

Refrain

Make a joyful noise all the earth!
Worship your God with gladness.
Make a joyful noise all the earth.
Come to this place with a song!

Know that your God has made you.
Know it's to God we belong.
And come to this place
With joyfulness and praise.
Worship your God with a song!
R.





Enter these gates, thanks giving.
Enter these courts with praise.
Sing thanks to your God
And bless the holy Name.
Worship your God with a song!
R.

Ages through endless ages,
Seasons of endless years,
The love of our Maker ever shall endure.
Worship your God with a song!
R.

Words of Assurance













Fairest Lord Jesus
(VU 341)

Fairest Lord Jesus, ruler of all nature,
O thou of God to earth come down:
Thee will I cherish, thee will I honour,
Thou my soul's glory, joy, and crown.



Fair are the meadows,
Fairer still the woodlands,
Robed in the blooming garb of spring;
Jesus is fairer, Jesus is purer,
Who makes the troubled heart to sing.


Fair is the sunshine,
Fairer still the moonlight,
And fair the twinkling, starry host;
Jesus shines brighter, Jesus shines purer
Than all the angels heaven can boast.


All fairest beauty heavenly and earthly,
Wondrously, Jesus is found in thee;
None can be nearer, fairer or dearer
Than thou, my Saviour, art to me.

Sunday Message.





Lord, I don't understand
The ways of the world.
Some thngs seem
Just too hard to bear.
Where are the answers
To the suffering and pain?
O Lord, reach out and show me
That you're there. Lift me up, Lord,
Light the way, Lord...

(Jill Gallina)







Prayer Over the Offering

Our heavenly Father:
by your generosity we have received
all that we have and all that we are.
Grant that we may so use
the things which you have entrusted to our care,
that we may become more and more your children
in spirit and in truth;
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.





Offertory
(VU 539, verse 1)

God of all good,
Our gifts we bring you;
Use them Your holy
Purpose to fulfill.
Tokens of love and pledges
Brought anew
That our whole life
Is offered to Your will.






May God's Sheltering Wings
(MV 214)

May God's Sheltering Wings,
Her gathering wings protect you.
May God's nurturing arms,
Her cradling arms sustain you,
And hold you in her love,
And hold you in her love.




Commissioning

We leave now, going back into the world,
Although we are not of this world.
We go, trusting in God and in Spirit, and led
by Jesus.





- Common Blessing -

Peace Be with You
(MV 215)

Peace be with you,
Peace forever,
Peace be with you,
My friends.
Till we meet again,
May God be with you.
Peace, peace, peace.
