Sunday Worship GuideTRANSCRIPT
Cityview Presbyterian Church
First Sunday After Easter May 1, 2011

To Our Guests:
If you are new to Cityview, or just visiting, we would love to know that you were here. We have clipboards (called “Connection Cards”) at the end of each aisle. These are a way for you to both communicate with us and to request information about Cityview. Connection cards come with a “no hassle” guarantee- we will not call you unless you specifically ask us. However, if you request information, the appropriate ministry leader will get in touch with you.
Our Purpose: You might be wondering, “Whatʼs this church all about?” At Cityview, we keep it simple: We are imperfect people that gather together in response to the grace of Jesus Christ. We are committed to worshiping God, loving each other well and serving the West Loop, the city of Chicago and the world.
The Easter Season
In the early Church the feast of Easter was established as the starting point in the development of the liturgical church year. The year as a whole receives its “Sunday” at Easter. Just as the first day of the week gives meaning and purpose to the weekly pattern of human life, so also the celebration of Easter in the Spring orients the entire year around the victorious resurrection of Christ for the life of the world. The early Church did not intend for this yearly pattern to replace or weaken the weekly Sunday worship of the church. Rather, the annual pattern was intended to enable the church to understand even better the mystery of Christʼs making all things holy, time included.
In the feast of Easter we celebrate the climax of God's redemptive story: Jesus Christ, God in flesh, came to dwell with us, died for us, and rose again from the dead. As the apostle Paul tells us in his letter to the Corinthian church, this moment changes everything. If Christ did not rise from the dead, then "our faith is futile." But if he did rise from the dead, then we can take hope.
As N.T. Wright says,
"The point of the resurrection is not simply that the creator God has done something remarkable for one solitary individual (as people today sometimes imagine is the supposed thrust of the Easter proclamation), but that, in and through the resurrection, 'the present evil age' has been invaded by the 'age to come', the time of restoration, return, covenant renewal, and forgiveness. An event has occurred as a result of which the world is a different place, and human beings have the new possibility to become a different kind of people."
Prayers for Reflection: (These prayers are available for personal reflection and prayer during or after the service.)
Prayer for Those Struggling with Sin Lord Jesus, grant that I may see in you the fulfillment of all my need, and may
turn from every false satisfaction to feed on you – the true and living bread.
Enable me to lay aside the sin that clings so closely and run with
perseverance the race set before me, looking to you, the pioneer and perfecter of my faith. Amen.
Prayer of Belief Lord Jesus Christ, I admit that I am weaker and more sinful than I ever
dared admit, but through you I am more loved and accepted than I ever dared
hope. I thank you for paying my debt on the cross, taking what I deserve in order
to offer me complete forgiveness. I know that you have been raised from the
dead, I turn from my sins and receive you as my Savior and Lord. Amen.
Prayer for Those Searching for Truth Lord Jesus, you claim to be the way, the truth, and the life. Grant that I might be
undaunted by the cost of following you as I consider the reasons for doing so. If
what you claim is true, please guide me, teach me, and open me to the reality of
who you are. Give me an understanding of you that is coherent, convincing, and
that leads to the life you promise. Amen.

*Indicates congregation standing Preparing in Stillness: We often come into worship tired, overwhelmed and distracted. If we are honest we often are not prepared to worship God. Each week, we take a few moments to quiet our hearts to prepare to meet God in worship. Please take this time to read these reflections, look over the rest of the service, or pray as we anticipate being called into worship.
Call to Worship: We need to be “called” to come and worship God be-cause we default to thinking the world revolves around our needs and agendas, and also because we struggle to believe that God truly wants us to draw near to him. The call to worship focuses our attention on God and prepares us to meet him.
Order of Worship
Prelude Preparing in Stillness “Jesus is the Fountain of grace and mercy. He alone can give to his people the assurance of hope, because none but he is infinite in power, and infinite in grace. Hear his own declaration, ʻMy grace is sufficient for you.ʼ With this promissory note in my hand, ever payable on demand, when presented by faith and prayer in the name of Jesus, I need not despond. I shall receive in return what will supply my every need out of the fullness which is in Christ Jesus. Out of his fullness, I shall receive, and grace for grace.
“My needs are many, but my supplies are infinite. Though millions of weak, tempted, persecuted, dying believers, have been invigorated in every age by this living water, yet its streams are undiminished; it still remains as it ever was — Grace Sufficient! Sufficient to relieve the needy, to strengthen the weak, to pardon the guilty, to sanctify the unholy, to support the disconsolate, to comfort and save all, however vile and worthless; who sincerely, fervently, and perseveringly seek for it, through faith in Christ.”
— Thomas Reade
“Our Father in heaven, please show me the difference between real faith and a demanding presumptive faith — so I can put my trust in Christ alone. I am so easily blinded by wanting to look good to myself and to others. May the gospel of the Cross and the resurrection of Christ be a continuing power in my life. Amen.” — Rose Marie Miller
GOD CALLS US
*Call to Worship
Leader: The eternal Father, who loved us and set us free from our sins, who loves us still with that love that will not let us go, and who will love us forever, calls us to worship him today as the only true lover of our souls. The Lord stoops to receive the love of our poor hearts. He calls us to remember the depth of his love for us in Christ. God seeks our love!
*Prayer of Adoration All: We give you thanks, great God, for the hope we have in Jesus,
who died but is risen and rules over all. By his death we know we have forgiveness. By his resurrection we know we have life. We thank you for your presence with us, knowing that nothing past, present, or yet to come can separate us from your great love made known in Jesus Christ, the resurrected Lord of the world. Amen.

Confession of Sin: Because sin is so pervasive in
both our individual and corporate lives, we are called
to come before God with honesty and transparency, confessing our failures and brokenness and asking for
both healing and forgiveness through Jesus Christ. We
confess corporately to show our unity even in our
brokenness.
GOD CLEANSES US *Prayer of Confession
Leader: Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. All: But we have been proud in spirit, and forgotten our need. Leader: Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. All: But we have not mourned over our sins, neither have we
mourned over the pain, needs, loneliness, and suffering in the world.
Leader: Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth. All: But we have fought for our own comfort and pleasure,
rather than putting others above ourselves. Leader: Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for justice, for they will be
filled. All: But we have turned a deaf ear to the cries of the oppressed.
We have not spoken for those who have no voice. Leader: Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy. All: Be merciful to us, O God, for we are sinners. Leader: Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. All: Create in us a clean heart, O God. And renew our spirit by
your grace. Leader: Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of
God. All: Make us instruments of peace, rather than the source of
discord. Teach us to walk in humility and gentleness. Leader: Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness,
For theirs is the kingdom of heaven. All: Merciful God, come to the aid of all who are persecuted for
your name. Ease their suffering and spare their life. Lord, please show them your mercy and have mercy upon us all in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Amen.

*Hymn of Confession Dear Refuge of My Weary Soul Words: Anne Steele Music: Kevin Twit *Assurance of Grace Based on Romans 8:34 & 2 Corinthians 5:17
Leader: Hear the good news! Who is in a position to condemn? Only Christ- and Christ died for us, Christ rose for us, Christ reigns in power for us, Christ prays for us. Anyone who is in Christ is a new creation. The old life has gone; a new life has begun. Know that you are forgiven, and be at peace.
All: Thanks be to God! Leader: Brothers and Sisters, you have heard Godʼs holy demands and
have confessed your sins to him. Do you believe that Jesus Christ, by his perfect life, sacrificial death, and glorious resurrection has atoned for your sins and satisfied the wrath of God for you?
All: We do.
Assurance of Grace: Christ has given the Church authority to declare forgiveness of sins in his Name. Because of this, when the liturgist proclaims that your sins are forgiven, you can know that Christ agrees.

The Lordʼs Prayer 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, the power and the glory, for ever and ever.

Worship Through Giving:
Because money is so powerfully tied to our hearts,
this is a valuable expression of worship as we acknowledge
that every- thing we have comes from God and belongs to him. If you are visiting with
us, we are just glad you are here- please do not feel
obligated to give.

The Sermon: Some view the Sermon as a way to get principles for “right” living. In reality, as we open the Scripture we corporately encounter Christ. Therefore, as you listen, pray to be open to the Spiritʼs leading, exhortation, encouragement, and healing. Guidelines for Communion: Communion, also called the Lordʼs Supper or the Eucharist, is the family meal for Christians. We welcome all Christians - those who look to Christ alone for salvation, who are in good standing with His Church, and who seek strength to live more faithfully to their Savior - to join in this sacrament. Please note: we use wine. White grape Juice is in the center cups of the trays.
GOD SPEAKS TO US Sermon Text Mark 5: 21-43
21 And when Jesus had crossed again in the boat to the other side, a great crowd gathered about him, and he was beside the sea. 22 Then came one of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name, and seeing him, he fell at his feet 23 and implored him earnestly, saying, “My little daughter is at the point of death. Come and lay your hands on her, so that she may be made well and live.” 24 And he went with him.
And a great crowd followed him and thronged about him. 25 And there was a woman who had had a discharge of blood for twelve years, 26 and who had suffered much under many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was no better but rather grew worse. 27 She had heard the reports about Jesus and came up behind him in the crowd and touched his garment. 28 For she said, “If I touch even his garments, I will be made well.” 29 And immediately the flow of blood dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of her disease. 30 And Jesus, perceiving in himself that power had gone out from him, immediately turned about in the crowd and said, “Who touched my garments?” 31 And his disciples said to him, “You see the crowd pressing around you, and yet you say, ʻWho touched me?ʼ” 32 And he looked around to see who had done it. 33 But the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came in fear and trembling and fell down before him and told him the whole truth. 34 And he said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace, and be healed of your disease.”
35 While he was still speaking, there came from the ruler's house some who said, “Your daughter is dead. Why trouble the Teacher any further?” 36 But overhearing what they said, Jesus said to the ruler of the synagogue, “Do not fear, only believe.” 37 And he allowed no one to follow him except Peter and James and John the brother of James. 38 They came to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and Jesus saw a commotion, people weeping and wailing loudly. 39 And when he had entered, he said to them, “Why are you making a commotion and weeping? The child is not dead but sleeping.” 40 And they laughed at him. But he put them all outside and took the child's father and mother and those who were with him and went in where the child was. 41 Taking her by the hand he said to her, “Talitha cumi,” which means, “Little girl, I say to you, arise.” 42 And immediately the girl got up and began walking (for she was twelve years of age), and they were immediately overcome with amazement. 43 And he strictly charged them that no one should know this, and told them to give her something to eat.
Leader: This is the Word of the Lord. All: Thanks be to God!
Sermon The Gospel of Mark: Faith in the Lord of Life Reverend Dan Adamson
GOD STRENGTHENS US *The Apostlesʼ Creed
Prayer of Thanksgiving & Consecration
Communion
Leader: Christian, what do you believe?
All: I believe in God, the Father Almighty, the Maker of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord; who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried; He descended into hell. The third day He rose again from the dead; He ascended into heaven, and sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from there He shall come to judge the quick and the dead. I believe in the Holy Ghost; the holy catholic church1; the communion of saints; the forgiveness of sins; the resurrection of the body; and the life everlasting. Amen.
Leader: The Lord be with you. All: And also with you. Leader: Lift up your hearts. All: We lift them up to the Lord. Leader: Let us give thanks to our God. All: It is right to give him thanks and praise.
