1 March 26, 2017 Fourth Sunday of Lent 10:00 A.M. A home for the Spiritual Journey It is a joy to have you with us for worship this morning! No matter who you are or where you are on life s journey, you are welcome here. All are invited to join us after worship for refreshments in our Fellowship Hall. If you are a visitor, please let us know if there is any way we can be of service to you. WELCOMING WORDS INTROIT CALL TO WORSHIP 1 Judy Birmingham, lay reader One: God calls us away from the tumult of the world, that we may focus our thoughts on things that are lasting. Many: In God s presence we see our lives more clearly; the broken pieces are put back together. One: God calls us out of loneliness into a life of community. Many: Worshipping together, caring about one another, we find out what it means to be truly human. One: But God will send us back into the world s confusion and busyness, its brokenness and isolation. Many: We will go with serenity and joy, strengthened to be God s servants, the bearers of peace. *OPENING HYMN #540 O Love That Wilt Not Let Me Go *OPENING PRAYER 2 O God, as we gather here, may we find space enough to be gathered into your love and to celebrate it together. May we recognize you in every act of love we meet today. * Those who are able, please stand.

2 *THE LORD S PRAYER (use the words most familiar to you) 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 sins, as we forgive those who sin against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory forever. Amen. *PASSING THE PEACE OF CHRIST *SONG OF PRAISE *CHURCH ANNOUNCEMENTS Karen Oberg LESSON FROM CHRISTIAN SCRIPTURE (Pew Bible p. 125) John 9:1-7, (the full story is John 9:1-41) A TIME FOR QUIET REFLECTION TO DISCERN GOD S CALLING RESPONSIVE PSLAM WITH SUNG RESPONSE Psalm 23, Psalter 734 CHILDREN'S TIME Children come forward for a lesson.

This is our song and our hope. Bless these gifts to the service of Jesus who shines in our hearts and illuminates every corner of this world. Amen. *CLOSING HYMN #432 O Christ, The Way, the Truth, the Life *BENEDICTION 5 One: Go into the world in faith! Many: Trusting God to lead you, trusting people to receive you. One: Go into the world with hope! Many: With God s presence before you and human dreams to carry you. One: Go into the world with love! Many: Serving with those in whom Christ lives, and laboring for those whom Jesus died. One: Go into the world with Faith, Hope, and Love!
