PRAYER OF THE DAY

† PRAYER OF CONFESSION Rev. Matt Drumheller

Merciful God, you draw the circle of your love wider and wider, but often we resist. We are quick to judge others rather than being grateful that we, too, are included in the fold. We prioritize the privileged, the powerful, and the people who look and act right. You extend grace first to the sinner, the outcast, and the marginalized. Forgive us, O God. Transform us, that we may show mercy as you show mercy.

† SILENCE FOR PERSONAL CONFESSION

† ASSURANCE OF PARDON

One: In the name of Jesus Christ, we are forgiven!

Many: Thanks be to God. Amen. †

SERMON “All God’s Children” Rev. Drumheller

† AFFIRMATION OF FAITH From A Brief Statement of Faith

In life and in death we belong to God. Through the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit, we trust in the one triune God, the Holy One of Israel, whom alone we worship and serve. With believers in every time and place, we rejoice that nothing in life or in death can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. Amen.

† THE PEACE

One: The peace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.

Many: And also with you.

ANTHEM Lord, Here Am I John Ness Beck

Master, Thou callest, I gladly obey; only direct me, and I’ll find Thy way. Teach me the mission appointed for me, what is my labor, and where it shall be. Master, Thou callest, and this I reply, “Ready and willing, Lord, here am I.” Willing, my Savior, to take up the cross; willing to suffer reproaches and loss; willing to follow, if Thou will but lead; only support me with grace in my need. Master, Thou callest, and this I reply, “Ready and willing, Lord, here am I.” Living or dying, I still would be Thine, yet I am mortal while Thou art divine. Pardon whenever I turn from the right, pity and bring me again to the light. Master, Thou callest, and this I reply, “Ready and willing, Lord, here am I, here am I.”

† PRESENTATION OF THE GIFTS

Praise God, from whom all blessings flow; praise Christ, all people here below; Praise Holy Spirit evermore; praise Triune God, whom we adore. Amen.
