Gathering Song

Gloria

Psalm

It is good to give thanks

to the Lord,

to make music

to your name,

O Most High,

To proclaim your love

in the morning

and your truth

in the watches

of the night.

The just will flourish

like the palm tree

and grow like a

Lebanon cedar.

Planted in the house

of the Lord

they will flourish

in the courts

of our God.

Still bearing fruit when

they are old,

still full of sap,

still green,

to proclaim that the

Lord is just.

My rock, in whom there

is no wrong.

Gospel

THE APOSTLES’ CREED

I believe in God,

the Father almighty,

Creator of heaven

and earth,

and in Jesus Christ,

his only Son, our Lord

(Bow)

Who was conceived by the

Holy Spirit,

Born of the Virgin Mary,

suffered under

Pontius Pilate,

was crucified, died,

and was buried

he descended into hell;

on the third day

he rose again

from the dead;

he ascended into heavenand is seated

at the right hand ofGod the Father almighty;

from there he will cometo judge the living

and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church,

the communion of saints,the forgiveness of sins,

the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen.

As God provides our every need,

with grateful hearts, let us receive

these gifts of love, and make return

to bless the world, to bless the world

Where hardened hearts have turned to

greed, trampling upon the fledgling seed,

help us to tend to others’ needs,

open our eyes, open our eyes.

Let mercy fall on us like rain

To clear the air and heal the pain.

Where sin has broken bonds of love

let mercy reign, let mercy reign.

O God,

From those of us who are

unable to be physically

present for the sacrament of

Christ's Body and Blood,

accept this our spiritual

offering until we can join the

community again in our

sanctuary.

We are diminished when we

are not gathered,

and we are grieved,

but we are never separated

from your love or from the

care of our brothers and

sisters.

May our prayer be an

expression of honor to you

and of encouragement for

us. We give you thanks for

the many ways that you

remain always near to our

hearts.

Amen.
