The flowers gracing the altar are given to
the glory of God and in memory of Joseph Giannini, brother and uncle of Rose and
Susan.
We welcome in a spirit of silence as
the prelude begins our service.
OUR
APPROACH TO GOD
Prelude
Introit "This is the Day"
Welcome
Call to Worship: Psalm 22:22, 23
I will tell of your
name to my brothers and sisters;
IN THE MIDST OF THE CONGREGATION WE WILL PRAISE YOU!
You who fear the Lord: praise God!
ALL YOU OFFSPRING OF JACOB, GLORIFY GOD! STAND IN AWE OF GOD,
ALL YOU OFFSPRING OF ISRAEL!

Praise"
Let us be before our God in silence.
Unison Prayer:
Psalm 22
O LORD, DO NOT BE FAR AWAY. COME
QUICKLY TO MY AID! I AM POURED OUT LIKE WATER, ALL MY BONES ARE OUT OF
JOINT. MY HEART IS LIKE WAX; IT IS MELTED WITHIN MY BREAST. DELIVER MY
SOUL...SAVE ME FROM THE MOUTH OF THE LION.
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 (Mark
12:29b-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.
