PRELUDE
We are excited that you are worshiping with Gethsemane today.
OPENING PRAYER
“O God, make the door of this house wide enough
to receive all who need human love and fellowship, narrow enough to shut out envy, pride, and strife.
Make its threshold smooth enough
to be no stumbling-block to children, nor to straying feet, but rugged and strong enough to turn back evil’s power.
God, make the door of this house
the gateway to you eternal kingdom.”
SCRIPTURE READING Liturgist: Judy Larson James 3:13-18
L. The word of God for the people of God.
CHILDREN’S MESSAGE
Let us welcome the children: “Jesus Loves Me”. “Jesus loves me! This I know. For the Bible tells me so. Little ones to Him belong; they are weak, but he is strong. Yes! Jesus loves me, Yes! Jesus loves me. Yes! Jesus loves me. The Bible tells me so”.
PRAYER OF INTERCESSION (In unison after 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 trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass 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. (Matthew 6:9-13)
SHARING LOVE & PEACE IN PLACE
