1 They are like trees planted by streams of water, which yield their fruit in its season Psalm 1 May 17, 2015 Confirmation Sunday * Please rise, in body or spirit Welcome Prelude Joyful Praise Celebration of Worship The Bel Canto Ringers Angela Rines Kathleen Wissinger * Call to Worship (responsively) Ben Valenti We are God's work of art--each one of us a precious gem, a marvelous melody, a potter's delight. We are God's handiwork--woven together in love, shaped with infinite compassion, painted with incredible beauty. We are the church of Jesus Christ--diverse in human qualities, but united in our call to love God with all our heart, mind, soul, and strength, and our neighbor as ourself. We are the Body of Christ--living in his truth, sharing his peace, carrying his hope, embodying his love, in the world he loved so much. Remind us who we are and what our lives are about. Renew us and empower us to live out the miracle of who we are, by the power of God working among us. Together let us worship the living God. We open ourselves to God, who makes all things new.

2 * Hymn 637 O Sing to the Lord Cantai ao Senhor Confession and Pardon Prayer of Confession (unison) Emma Craig O Lord our God, you know us better than we know ourselves. As we come before you now, believers and doubters alike, we all share a deep need, for we are all lost without your grace. Search us, O God, and know our hearts, test us and know our troubled thoughts. Give us true repentance Forgive us all our wrongs. Transform us by your Spirit to live for you each day, to learn to serve each other. Amen. Kyrie: Hymn 575 Lord, Have Mercy Upon Us Pardini Silent Prayer Assurance of Pardon (responsively) The good news is that Christ calls us to new life and enables us to begin again and again and again and again. Friends, believe the good news of the gospel. In Jesus Christ we are forgiven! * Response: Hymn 586 Alleluia Alleluia 7 Confirmation Recognition Confirmands: Adam Redgate, Benjamin Valenti, Brett Maginley, Daniel Alessio, Emma Craig, Ethan May, Evan MacGregor, Grace Godfrey, Isabella Galinkin, John Alessio, Julia Woodworth, Juliann Stiles, Lucy Boyadjis, Savannah Familo, Sophia Sparacino Mentors: Stan Mack, Jack Fraebel, Ken Hashagen, Vern Verhoef, Carol Lowry, Mark Wells, Bruce Fisher, Morgan Smith, Lisa Fraebel, Wayne Rush, Beverly Tignor, Janet McMillan, Daria Lisco, Sue Woodruff, Beth Fisher * Hymn 726 Will You Come and Follow Me Kelvingrove Prayer for Illumination (unison) Savannah Familo Open our hearts to your power moving around us and between us and within us, until your glory is revealed in our love of both friend and enemy, in communities transformed by justice and compassion, and in the healing of all that is broken. Amen. 2

3 First Scripture Reading: Psalm 1 (Old Testament, page 463) Happy are those who do not follow the advice of the wicked, or take the path that sinners tread, or sit in the seat of scoffers; but their delight is in the law of the Lord, and on his law they meditate day and night. They are like trees planted by streams of water, which yield their fruit in its season, and their leaves do not wither. In all that they do, they prosper. The wicked are not so, but are like chaff that the wind drives away. Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous; for the Lord watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish. This is the word of the Lord. Thanks be to God. Anthem Hisakata (The Gentle Light Of Spring) Victor C. Johnson The Tower Singers Barbara Valenti, piano Robin Bruen, recorder Scott Gothe, percussion Spring has come, and once again the sun shines in the sky. So gently smile the heavens that blossoms lift their sleeping eyes. Second Scripture Reading: 1 John 5: 9-13 (New Testament, page 227) If we receive human testimony, the testimony of God is greater; for this is the testimony of God that he has testified to his Son. Those who believe in the Son of God have the testimony in their hearts. Those who do not believe in God have made him a liar by not believing in the testimony that God has given concerning his Son. And this is the testimony: God gave us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life. I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life. This is the Word of the Lord. Thanks be to God. Sermon Testimony 2015 Confirmands Daniel Alessio, Isabella Galinkin, Evan MacGregor, Juliann Stiles, Julia Woodworth 3

Offertory Fe y Esperanza Melinda Ramseth Hoiland The Bel Canto Singers Barbara Valenti, piano Robin Bruen, recorder Dan Alessio, John Alessio, Evan MacGregor, percussion We live by faith and hope. We have faith in God who loves us and in Jesus, God s son. And we hope that our world will someday live as one. God has giv n us many blessings and gifts to share with our brothers and our sisters in the world everywhere. * Doxology (unison) Lasst uns Erfreuen * Prayer of Dedication Prayers of the People The Lord s Prayer (unison) 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 debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever. Amen. 4 John Alessio
