WELCOME & GREETING

FROM THE GOSPEL OF JOHN
John 14:15-21
Gregory Sager reading

15 “If you love me, you will keep my commandments. 16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate, to be with you forever. 17 This is the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, because he abides with you, and he will be in you.

18 “I will not leave you orphaned; I am coming to you. 19 In a little while the world will no longer see me, but you will see me; because I live, you also will live. 20 On that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you. 21 They who have my commandments and keep them are those who love me; and those who love me will be loved by my Father, and I will love them and reveal myself to them.”

L:  The Word of the Lord
P: Thanks be to God                                       

Revelation Song
Led by Dana & Leah

Worthy is the Lamb Who was slain
Holy holy is He
Sing a new song to Him Who sits on
Heaven’s mercy seat

chorus
Holy holy holy
Is the Lord God Almighty
Who was and is and is to come
With all creation I sing
Praise to the King of kings
You are my ev’rything
And I will adore You

Clothed in rainbows of living color
Flashes of lightning rolls of thunder
Blessing and honor strength and glory
And power be to You the only wise King

Filled with wonder awestruck wonder
At the mention of Your name
Jesus Your name is power breath and living water
Such a marv’lous mystery

HYMN OF RESPONSE
Holy God We Praise Your Name

Holy God, we praise thy name;
Lord of all, we bow before thee.
All on earth thy scepter claim,
All in heaven above adore thee.
Infinite thy vast domain,
Everlasting is thy reign.

Hark! the glad celestial hymn
Angel choirs above are raising;
Cherubim and seraphim,
In unceasing chorus praising,
Fill the heav’ns with sweet accord:
“Holy, holy, holy Lord!”

Lo the apostolic train
Joins thy sacred name to hallow;
Prophets swell the glad refrain,
And the blessed martyrs follow;
And from morn to set of sun,
Through the church the song goes on.

Holy Father, holy Son,
Holy Spirit, three we name thee,
Though in essence only one;
Undivided God we claim thee,
And adoring bend the knee,
While we own the mystery.

All:  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 sins as we forgive those who sin against us.  And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.  For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory forever.  Amen.

GIVING OF OUR TITHES & OFFERINGS
Giving & Receiving
Led by Max

Love is there beneath the frost line 
Love is there above the tree line 
Love is there by your side 
Peace unto thee be multiplied 

You are a gift to me 
A constant epiphany 
So I’ll give my gifts to you 
Communal and in solitude 

Love is there . . . 

I am a gift to you 
A fountain of revenue 
So I’ll keep your gifts to me 
Forgiveness and apologies 

Love is there . . . 

If we are a gift and God is love 
How could we not receive more than enough? 

Love is there . . .

DOXOLOGY & PRAYER
Praise God from whom all blessings flow

Praise Him above ye heav’nly host;
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Amen.

Overshadow you with grace;
May God’s love stand firm beneath you,
Welcome you with glad embrace !

Vigilant of all your ways;

Shielding you through all your days!

And your faithfulness repay,
With a peace the world can’t give you,
Neither shall it take away!
Alleluia! Alleluia! Glorify the Lord with praise!

"With what can we compare the kingdom of God, or what parable will we use for it? It is like a mustard seed, which, when sown upon the ground, is the smallest of all the seeds on earth; yet when it is sown it grows up and becomes the greatest of all shrubs, and puts forth large branches, so that the birds of the air can make nests in its shade." (Mark 4:30-32 NRS)
