Bridging Faith and Learning

Service of Holy Communion

Fourth Sunday after Pentecost

June 12, 2016Eleven o’clock in the morning

“Jesus Speaks About Forgiveness,” by the Jesus MAFA Community, Cameroon

This morning we read of a woman who approaches Jesus with humble intimacy, seeking forgiveness for her sins. Despite being expected to reject her as a sinner and as a woman, Jesus instead forgives her, and commends her loving example. It is this overflow of grace that Paul writes of when he says it is no longer he who lives, but Christ who lives in him. Tragically, the wicked example of King Ahab and Queen Jezebel teaches us of what happens when we cling to and abuse earthly power.However, through faith in Jesus our old lives and shame are put to death, and we are released to live full of the love and joy of Christ.

The congregation is invited to reflect silently during the prelude as a time of prayer and meditation.

*proCessional Hymn 139 (found in the hymnals located in the pew racks) Praise to the Lord, the Almighty lobe den Herren

*prayer of Confession and Words of assuranCe (in unison) Most merciful God, we confess that we have sinned against you in thought, word, and deed, by what we have done, and by what we have left undone. We have not loved you with our whole heart; we have not loved our neighbors as ourselves. We are truly sorry and we humbly repent. For the sake of your Son Jesus Christ, have mercy on us and forgive us; that we may delight in your will, and walk in your ways to the glory of your name. Amen.

The minister speaks words of assurance.

*peaCe (All exchange signs and words of God’s peace.)

Proclamation

prayer for illumination (in unison) Saving God, hold us fast to your promises of peace and send your Spirit to illuminate your holy word; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

The Chapel welcomes families with children; if at any time during the service your child needs a place for active play, please know there is a nursery in the Chapel basement. On this Communion Sunday, families with children are invited to sit up front, so they can better observe The Great Thanksgiving. The importance of welcoming children is exemplified in Matthew 18:2-5 by Jesus’ answer to the disciples as they wondered who was the greatest in the kingdom of heaven: ‘He called a child, whom he put among them, and said, ‘Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Whoever becomes humble like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. Whoever welcomes one such child in my name welcomes me.’’ Please help us welcome the children in our midst by letting them know we are glad to see them in worship. By doing so, we are also welcoming Jesus.
