1 Out of my distress I called on the Lord; the Lord answered me and set me in a broad place. With the Lord on my side I do not fear. What can mortals do to me?... I shall not die, but I shall live, and recount the deeds of the Lord... I was pushed hard, so that I was falling, but the Lord helped me. The Lord is my strength and my might; God has become my salvation. (Psalm 118:5-6, 17, 13-14) S E R V I C E O F W O R D A N D T A B L E S E C O N D S U N D A Y O F L E N T 2 4 H O U R S T H A T C H A N G E D T H E W O R L D M A R C H 4, O N - L I N E E D I T I O N 215 SOMERS ROAD EAST LONGMEADOW, MA The Rev. Kelly D. Turney, Pastor J. T. Cavicchia, Director of Music a reconciling congregation

2 The Psalms represent the heart and soul of the Bible, and Jesus use of them during the last twenty-four hours of his life beckons us to become more familiar with them. I suspect the words of Psalm 118 echoed in Jesus mind as he prayed that night in the garden. Jesus taught from the Psalms, he sang from the Psalms at the Last Supper, and it was the Psalms that he prayed as he hung on the cross. Clearly they were an important part of his spiritual life. If we seek to learn spiritually from Jesus, we will want to become familiar with the Psalms. Like Jesus, we will draw comfort from selected verses. The Gospels do not show him reciting entire Psalms but rather choosing this or that verse, often drawing on beautiful, noble, and lofty verses nestled among less noble, even vengeful, verses in particular Psalms. Adam Hamilton, 24 Hours That Changed the World gathering to praise PRELUDE & BRINGING IN THE LIGHT OF CHRIST INTROIT Stay with Me *CALL TO WORSHIP from Ann Weems Kneeling in Jerusalem Lent is a time to take the time to let the power of our faith story take hold of us, a time to let the events get up and walk around in us. a time to ponder and a time to wonder, a time to turn around... a time to intensify our living into Christ, a time to hover over the thoughts of our hearts, Lent is a time to enter the presence of Jesus, to allow him to redeem our time! *OPENING HYMN Dear God, Creator of Us All 358 vs. 1-3 (Those with announcements should come forward during the singing of the hymn) GREETING & OPPORTUNITIES FOR MINISTRY

3 listening for the word CONFESSING WHO WE ARE Litany of the Hurried Life by Bates, Saliers I d like to walk under the open sky long enough to let the rain rain down on me, and the sun warm my face; I d like to be attentive to the song of the birds and of all creatures hymning the world to you; I d like to have eight, full, glorious hours of sleep, to wake refreshed, and new with joy in the morning; I d like to visit those ill and confined who need a smile and a touch of human care; I d like to bring healing and peace to the imprisoned, to the stranger and to the dying; I d like to write a long letter to my friends and family, telling each how life is with me, and thanking them just for being; I d like to be still one evening long enough to see the subtle change from light to dark, and the deepening hues of night-fall; I d like to praise you, for all that we ve been given with all the breath within me; Take from us the burden of rushing through our life-time. Redeem the time with us, in us, through us. Help us live in your time; our times are in your hand. Amen. *PASSING THE PEACE OF CHRIST May the Peace of Christ change you. And you also.
