For the times when we listen to the advice of those who rebel against you, Lord have mercy. For those times when we can be found with those who scorn, Christ have mercy. We experience your blessings like a tree that is planted beside a never-failing stream. For those times when we do not bear the fruits of your abundance, Lord have mercy. Help us live in obedience to you, following Jesus Christ, who taught us to pray: 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.

2 MOMENT FOR CHILDREN OF ALL AGES **HYMN O Blessed Spring #2076 FWS (small black book) PRAYERS OF THE PEOPLE Joys and Concerns Pastoral Prayer Sung Response O Lord, hear my prayer, O Lord hear my prayer. When I call answer me. O Lord, hear my prayer O Lord, hear my prayer. Come and listen to me. OFFERING OF OUR GIFTS AND OURSELVES Invitation to Give Offertory Anthem Blessed Are They Haas **Doxology Praise God from whom all blessings flow; Praise God all creatures here below: Alleluia! Alleluia! Praise God the source of all our gifts. Praise Jesus Christ, whose power up lifts! Praise the Spirit, Holy Spirit, Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! SCRIPTURE LESSON Jeremiah 17:5-10 Thus says the Lord: Cursed are those who trust in mere mortals and make mere flesh their strength, whose hearts turn away from the Lord. They shall be like a shrub in the desert, and shall not see when relief comes. They shall live in the parched places of the wilderness, in an uninhabited salt land. Blessed are those who trust in the Lord, whose trust is the Lord. They shall be like a tree planted by water, sending out its roots by the stream. It shall not fear when heat comes, and its leaves shall stay green; in the year of drought it is not anxious, and it does not cease to bear fruit. The heart is devious above all else; it is perverse who can understand it? I the Lord test the mind and search the heart, to give to all according to their ways, according to the fruit of their doings. GOSPEL LESSON Luke 6:17-26 He came down with them and stood on a level place, with a great crowd of his disciples and a great multitude of people from all Judea, Jerusalem, and the coast of Tyre and Sidon. They had come to hear him and to be healed of their diseases; and those who were troubled with unclean spirits were cured. And all in the crowd were trying to touch him, for power came out from him and healed all of them. Then he looked up at his disciples and said: Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God. Blessed are you who are hungry now, for you will be filled. Blessed are you who weep now, for you will laugh. Blessed are you when people hate you, and when they exclude you, revile you, and defame you on account of the Son of Man. Rejoice on that day and leap for joy, for surely your reward is great in heaven; for that is what their ancestors did to the prophets. But woe to you who are rich, for you have received your consolation. Woe to you who are full now, for you will be hungry. Woe to you who are laughing now, for you will mourn and weep. Woe to you when all speak well of you, for that is what their ancestors did to the false prophets. One: Our God is still speaking. All: Thanks be to God! SERMON Pastor Chip **PARTING HYMN I Sing a Song of the Saints of God #712 (red hymnal) **BENEDICTION **SUNG RESPONSE FOLLOWING THE LIGHT OF CHRIST INTO THE WORLD MUSIC FOR SENDING FORTH ** All who are able to stand, may do so.
