Those wishing to make Announcements are asked to be in the front pews at the start of the announcements period. There will be opportunity to share prayer requests at the time of the Prayers of the Church. If you wish to offer a prayer request in written form, please fill out one of the yellow prayer request cards found in the pews and place it in the offering plate at the time of the offering. Large print editions of bulletin and Chalice Hymnal are available at the back of the sanctuary. Nursery Room available in the lower level of the Parish House. Children ages Birth-3 years may visit the Nursery with a parent at any time. *All who are able, please stand. Bold denotes unison voice. PRELUDE Prayer for my Country Penny Rodriguez CALL TO WORSHIP Sing to God a new song For Love has done marvelous things! Sing praises to the Glorious One from day to day. Declare the splendor of the Holy One to all the nations, the marvelous works of Love to all people! The Bestower of Life reigns with mercy, Let the earth rejoice and the heavens be glad! You, Love, are known through your Promise. You are the Light of the Saints; You hide yourself in every soul. Let us rejoice and give thanks to God The Bestower of Life.

3 *HYMN 2, Chalice (blue) Joyful, Joyful, We Adore You *GATHERING PRAYER AND THE LORD S PRAYER God of manifest grace and ever flowing mercy, you call us to abide in you and to mature into your love. We are called, as Christ s people, to bear love. We see, as Christ s people, to bear love into a weary world, hope into discouraged hearts, and healing into broken and struggling lives. When our own confusion silences us, remind us of Christ s words. When our own pain cripples us or our confusion pulls us off center, lift us into your arms and brush our brow with your healing touch. Let us rest in Jesus arms until we are ready to go forward in your love once again. 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. *SUNG RESPONSE

HAVE YOU HEARD ABOUT SCRIP? Scrip is a gift card program where you can fundraise while you shop. You can purchase gift cards for over 750 retailers to give as gifts, or for every day shopping. You pay face value, but the church gets to purchase them for less from the Great Lakes Scrip Center, thus the fundraising! The Scrip table will be open every Sun. in July during coffee hour, so come see what we are all about. Thanks for your support!
