World Communion Sunday
Feast of St. Francis
Proper 22
The
flowers gracing the
sanctuary are
given to the glory of God and in loving memory of all those who died at
the hands of war, violence and terrorism & in honor of all the
brave immigrant marchers who gathered in Queens yesterday -- may we be
gathered at one table.
We
invite you
to maintain a spirit of silence as the prelude begins our service.
OUR
APPROACH TO GOD
Prelude
"Closer Walk" Traditional
Introit
"This is the Day" Les Garrett
Welcome
Call
to Worship: Psalm 50:1, Isaiah 2:21; Psalm 96
The mighty one, God the Lord,
SPEAKS AND SUMMONS THE EARTH.
In the final days the temple will tower about the highest hills and
mountains.
ALL NATIONS WILL STREAM TOWARD
IT.
Tell the nations, "The Lord rules!"
LET HEAVEN AND EARTH BE GLAD!
Let sea and sea creatures roar,
LET THE FIELD AND ITS BEASTS
EXULT!
*Hymn 285 "In Christ There Is No
East or West"
Let us be before our
God in silence.
Unison Prayer: Psalm 80
RESTORE US, O GOD OF HOSTS; LET YOUR FACE SHINE, THAT WE MAY
BE SAVED. YOU BROUGHT A VINE OUT OF EGYPT; YOU DROVE OUT THE NATIONS
AND PLANTED IT. YOU CLEARED THE GROUND FOR IT; IT TOOK DEEP ROOT AND
FILLED THE LAND...TURN AGAIN, O GOD OF HOSTS; LOOK DOWN FROM HEAVEN,
AND SEE; HAVE REGARD FOR THIS VINE, THE STOCK THAT YOUR RIGHT HAND
PLANTED.
Kyrie (sung)
LORD, HAVE MERCY
ON US.
CHRIST, HAVE MERCY ON US.
LORD, HAVE MERCY ON US.
A Word of Assurance
The Summary of the
Law (Mk 12: 29-31)
This is the first commandment:
HEAR O ISRAEL,
THE LORD OUR GOD,
THE LORD IS ONE!
THEREFORE YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD
WITH ALL YOUR HEART,
WITH ALL YOUR SOUL,
WITH ALL YOUR MIND,
AND WITH ALL YOUR STRENGTH.
This is the second
commandment:
YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS
YOURSELF.
There is no greater
commandment than these.
Anthem "To
God Be the Glory" Fanny Crosby

8
