Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

The Lamb of God Page 154 You are invited to sing the following hymns during the distribution of Communion: Comfort, Comfort Now My People #256 Prayer after Communion Assisting Minister : Holy One, we give you thanks that in this bread and cup we have feasted again on your endless love. Let that love overflow more and more in our lives, that we may be messengers to prepare your way, harvesters of justice and righteousness, and bearers of your eternal Word, our Savior Jesus Christ. Congregation: Amen. The Word First Lesson....Malachi 3:1 4 The Lord announces a covenant with Israel. A messenger like Malachi (his name means "my messenger") shall prepare the way for the coming of the Lord by purifying and refining God's people, as silver and gold are refined. See, I am sending my messenger to prepare the way before me, and the LORD whom you seek will suddenly come to his temple. The messenger of the covenant in whom you delight indeed, he is coming, says the LORD of hosts. 2 But who can endure the day of his coming, and who can stand when he appears?
5 For he is like a refiner's fire and like fullers' soap; 3 he will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver, and he will purify the descendants of Levi and refine them like gold and silver, until they present offerings to the LORD in righteousness. 4 Then the offering of Judah and Jerusalem will be pleasing to the LORD as in the days of old and as in former years. Lector: Word of God, Word of Life Congregational Response: Thanks be to God. Psalm....Luke 1:68 79 In the tender compassion of our God the dawn from on high shall break upon us. (Luke 1:78) A: 68 Blessed are you, Lord, the God of Israel, you have come to your people and set them free. C: 69 You have raised up for us a mighty Savior, born of the house of your servant David. A: 70 Through your holy prophets, you promised of old to save us from our enemies, 71 from the hands of all who hate us, C: 72 to show mercy to our forebears, and to remember your holy covenant. A: 73 This was the oath you swore to our father Abraham: 74 to set us free from the hands of our enemies, C: free to worship you without fear, 75 holy and righteous before you, all the days of our life. A: 76 And you, child, shall be called the prophet of the Most High, for you will go before the Lord to pre- pare the way, C: 77 to give God's people knowledge of salvation by the forgiveness of their sins. A: 78 In the tender compassion of our God the dawn from on high shall break upon us, C: 79 to shine on those who dwell in darkness and the shad- ow of death, and to guide our feet into the way of peace. East Koshkonong Lutheran Senior Choir. The King Shall Come Arranged by John Leavitt Second Lesson..... Philippians 1:3 11 The apostle Paul was the pastor of many new churches. He writes in this letter about his joy to be in partnership with the Christians of Philippi. Listen to how tender-hearted Paul, sometimes a stern preacher, is with his friends as he encourages them to grow in love and knowledge. 3 I thank my God every time I remember you, 4 constantly praying with joy in
6 every one of my prayers for all of you, 5 because of your sharing in the gospel from the first day until now. 6 I am confident of this, that the one who began a good work among you will bring it to completion by the day of Jesus Christ. 7 It is right for me to think this way about all of you, because you hold me in your heart, for all of you share in God's grace with me, both in my imprisonment and in the defense and confirmation of the gospel. 8 For God is my witness, how I long for all of you with the compassion of Christ Jesus. 9 And this is my prayer, that your love may overflow more and more with knowledge and full insight 10 to help you to determine what is best, so that in the day of Christ you may be pure and blameless, 11 having produced the harvest of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ for the glory and praise of God. Lector: Word of God, Word of Life Congregational Response: Thanks be to God. The Choir.. Do You Hear What I Hear? Arranged by Audrey Snyder A Tapestry of Joyful Carols Arranged by Douglas Nolan The Gospel..... Luke 3:1 6 John the Baptist is a herald of the saving Lord, whose way is prepared by "repentance for the forgiveness of sins."as we hear the careful record of human leaders, we sense the spectrum of political and religious authority that will be challenged by this coming Lord. In the fifteenth year of the reign of Emperor Tiberius, when Pontius Pilate was governor of Judea, and Herod was ruler of Galilee, and his brother Philip ruler of the region of Ituraea and Trachonitis, and Lysanias ruler of Abilene, 2 during the high priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the word of God came to John son of Zechariah in the wilderness. 3 He went into all the region around the Jordan, proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins, 4 as it is written in the book of the words of the prophet Isaiah, "The voice of one crying out in the wilderness: 'Prepare the way of the Lord, make his paths straight. 5 Every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be made low, and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough ways made smooth; 6 and all flesh shall see the salvation of God.'"
7 The Choir Angels We Have Heard On High Old French Carol Three Songs of Christmas Arranged by Russel Robinson The Sending The Benediction.. Announcements... The Sending Hymn... Blessed Be the God of Israel.....#250 The Dismissal.. Assisting Minister: Do all the good you can, In all the ways you can, In all the places you can, At all the times you can, To all the people you can, Serving the Lord, your God. Congregation: We will!
