Hymn: Where He Leads Me
 
Call to Worship
​We hear a divine melody and feel an inner pull that draws us closer to you, Oh God. We come this morning looking for the companionship that comes with being a Christian. We ask for the guidance of your Holy Spirit to lead us each new day that we are given. We come this day sharing the love and joy of life and all that it gives us each amazing day.

Sunday School: Wisdom to Follow

7/26/2020

0 Comments

 
Good morning!
​

We haven't listened to Alan in a while. Today is the day!
When we gathered in person, we usually shared our joys and concerns with each other. Think over your past week. What brought you joy? What made you feel thankful? What made you feel worried? Who do you feel the urge to pray for? If you have something you feel comfortable sharing publicly, and that you would like us all to pray for, you can add it as a comment to this post. 

The guided prayer below is adapted from this prayer from individual.

Sunday School: The Wisdom of Jesus

7/19/2020

Good morning!
We are so glad that you've chosen to join us today!
When we meet in person, we share joys and concerns. Take some time to reflect on your past week, and think about who or what you may want to pray for. If you have prayer requests you would like to share, you can add them in the comments below so we can all pray for them. You may also want to refer to the prayer list from last week's worship service. The prayer below is slightly edited from the one that we used for our Maundy Thursday service. Each small paragraph is directed at a different group of people. After each section, pray individually for those who may fit within that group.

Dealing with Life's Failures

The video posted below has just the sermon through the pastoral prayer. Please take some time to read the rest of the service, which is produced in text below. 
Hymn: Now Thank We All Our God
 
Call to Worship
Jesus calls us to servant ministry.
We must be willing to help others, not counting the cost or rewards.
Pretense, disharmony, greed have no place in discipleship.
Serving God means receiving each person as though they were a beloved child. Lord, help us to truly become your disciples. Create in each of us hearts of ministry and compassion and kindness. ​

Sunday School: The Boy Jesus

Good morning!

When we meet in person, we normally share our joys and concerns with each other. Reflect on your week, and think about your personal joys and concerns. Consider for who or what you might want to pray. You may want to look at the prayer list in the most current worship service, and pray for those people as well. 

​I get Daily Meditation emails from Father Richard Rohr, whose writing I was introduced to when I lived in Flagstaff. This week's guided prayer comes from those emails.

This is our first in-person worship service since March. Due to some technical difficulties (and lack of a good internet connection!), only the audio of the sermon is available for this week. The audio is embedded at the appropriate point of the worship service. Just hit the play button when you get there.

Sunday School: Vindicating Wisdom

Good morning!
At this time, we will still not be meeting in person for Sunday School. The lessons will continue to be posted on Sunday mornings, as we have been doing. 
When we meet in person, we share our joys and concerns with each other. Take some time to think back on your week, and consider the joys and concerns you have. They may include for you personally, for other people, or for the wider world. The prayer below comes from Christianity.com. We will all pray the beginning of the prayer (in italics) together. In the middle, pray for your particular joys and concerns. Then, the end (in italics) will again be together.
