1 The Congregational Church of Westborough UNITED CHURCH OF CHRIST West Main & Church Streets, Westborough, Massachusetts OPEN DOORS GROWING FAITH!

2 Some Notes to Help You Feel at Ease this Morning Children... Four and Under: The nursery is available downstairs during the service if needed. Pre-K Grade 4: Will go to Summer Story Time after the Children s Time! Outside the sanctuary are bags filled with crayons to keep little hands busy in pews! Visitors of all ages... We're glad you are here! We have large print bulletins and an elevator too! You are welcome to an all-age fellowship after worship in the room downstairs directly under the sanctuary. Folks new and returning to worship... There are no assigned seats; sit where you feel most comfortable. We celebrate the noises of small children; they remind us that we're alive! Generally, we stand for the opening of the service and for singing. We sing with joy and Spirit, without fear of judgement. We share our prayers vulnerably, and hold them with care. We pray with our eyes closed and open, our heads bowed and raised. We pass the peace with hugs and handshakes, with nods and smiles. We share communion with all who are willing-especially children! OPEN DOORS GROWING FAITH! This is our vision statement. It speaks to our desire to open our doors to all of God s children, and to have all of the love and acceptance that is in this place flow out of our doors for the community and beyond. Our hope is also to grow faith in kids, youth and adults so that we can walk together in Jesus way, led by the Holy Spirit. Join us! We are an Open and Affirming Church! 1

3 THE CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH OF WESTBOROUGH UNITED CHURCH OF CHRIST Jun 25, 2017 *The congregation is invited to stand. 10:00 AM You Are the Work of God It is not you who shape God; it is God that shapes you. If then you are the work of God, await the hand of the Artist who does all things in due season. Offer the Potter you heart, soft and tractable, and keep the form in which the Artist has fashioned you. Let your clay be moist, lest you grow hard and lose the imprint of the Potter s fingers. - Irenaeus, 2 nd century theologian PRELUDE Little Bird by Edvard Grieg WELCOME! *CALL TO WORSHIP Leader: God is calling. Do you not hear? You are being called by name, for a purpose. People: God, You have searched us and know us. You discern our thoughts from far away. Leader: Do not confuse the siren calls of the world for God s call. Do not confuse the values of this world for God s values. People: You know, O God, when we sit and when we stand. You know when we lie down and where we go. Leader: Your words and Your deeds are known to God. You were known to God before you were even born! ALL: Your knowledge of us is more than we can understand. Your Love for us is utterly profound; Your desire for our wholeness is fierce. We are Your Beautiful Creation and every day we are here was written in Your Book. Blessed Be! *OPENING HYMN #2 Joyful, Joyful, We Adore Thee HYMN TO JOY 2

4 *UNISON PRAYER Like a skilled potter, O God, You have shaped each one of us as a unique design. You know us better than we know ourselves and You love us more than we can love ourselves and others. You value us more highly than we can imagine. You weep when we are marred or broken through our own misdeeds or by the world s cruelty. You sent us Your very own Son to be our bridge to You. We gather now, Holy One, to assemble our prayers for one another and for all the world s people in a chorus of devotion. Come to us, Be with us, help us open to Your glorious Holy Spirit. We pray all this in the very name of your son Jesus who taught us to pray: *THE LORD'S PRAYER (Debts) 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. (Everyone may be seated) CHILDREN S SCRIPTURE Philippians 4:12-13 (pew Bible page 955) CHILDREN S TIME Amanda Borglund (Children pre-school ages through grade 4 are invited to join Summer Story Time while students grades 5 and up will remain with their parents in worship. Everyone else is invited to greet one another.) ANTHEM Song Without Words by Felix Mendelssohn PRAYERS OF THE PEOPLE Linda Hartley *HYMN #284 Gather Us In GATHER US IN SERMON SCRIPTURE Psalm 139:1-18, (pew Bible page 503) SERMON You are meant to BE here! Rev. Elaine S. Gaetani OFFERING OF OUR GIFTS Invitation: When we perceive all the good we may do for Jesus Christ, we are eager to share. Jesus welcomes into discipleship those willing to put God first in all matters. God has made a costly investment in humanity. For love s sake, God sent Christ among us. For love s sake, we make the offering of ourselves and our resources a high and holy part of our worship. 3

5 In each of our pews today is a black friendship book which we encourage you to fill out and pass to the person next to you during the offering. If you have been with us before, just put down your name, but if you are new today, please let us know who you are. Please place the attendance sheets on top of the black books. Thanks! Offertory Notturno by Edvard Grieg *DOXOLOGY (unison) Praise God from whom all blessings flow; Praise God, all creatures here below; Praise God above, ye heavenly hosts: Creator, Christ and Holy Ghost. Amen. *PRAYER OF DEDICATION We have heard You calling us, God of Love, in the cries of Your children---cries for bread, for justice, for relief. We have seen You beckoning to us amid the corporate greed and social distortions of our day. We have felt the pain of sisters and brothers caught up in addictions, or damaging relationships that violate Your holy temple within them. We want to help, Oh God, and we believe Your church can be Christ s healing Presence for all people. Show us the Way to be messengers of Your gentle judgment and powerful Good News! May our offerings be used for the transformation of church and society, for individuals and groups. Amen. *SENDING HYMN #15 Rejoice, You Pure in Heart MARION *BENEDICTION Leader: We are a community of: PEOPLE: OPEN DOORS-AND GROWING FAITH! *POSTLUDE Solfeggietto by C.P.E.
