Commemoration
Week of Christian Unity

The flowers gracing the altar are given to
the glory of God and in loving memory of our beloved Josephine & Henry Safay by
the family.
We welcome in a spirit of silence as
the prelude begins our service.
OUR
APPROACH TO GOD
Prelude
Introit "There's Something About That Name"
Welcome
Call to Worship:
Psalm 30
I will extol you, O Lord, for you have drawn me up,
AND DID NOT LET MY FOES REJOICE OVER ME.
O Lord, you brought up my soul from Sheol, restored me to life…
SING PRAISES TO THE LORD, O YOU HIS FAITHFUL ONES, AND GIVE THANKS TO GOD’S
HOLY NAME!
*Hymn 284 "They'll Know We Are Christians"
Let us be before our God in silence.
Unison Prayer:
Psalm
40:11ff
DO NOT, O LORD, WITHHOLD YOUR MERCY FROM ME; LET
YOUR STEADFAST LOVE AND YOUR FAITHFULNESS KEEP ME SAFE FOREVER. FOR EVILS HAVE
ENCOMPASSED ME WITHOUT NUMBER; MY INIQUITIES HAVE OVERTAKEN ME, UNTIL I CANNOT
SEE; THEY ARE MORE THAN THE HAIRS OF MY HEAD; AND MY HEART FAILS ME. BE PLEASED,
O LORD, TO DELIVER ME; O LORD, MAKE HASTE TO HELP ME.
Kyrie
(sung)
LORD, HAVE MERCY ON US.
CHRIST, HAVE MERCY ON US.
LORD, HAVE MERCY ON US.

The Summary of the
Law (Mark

This is the
first commandment:
HEAR O
ISRAEL,
THE LORD OUR GOD,
THE LORD IS ONE!
THEREFORE YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD
WITH ALL YOUR HEART,
WITH ALL YOUR SOUL,
WITH ALL YOUR MIND,
AND WITH ALL YOUR STRENGTH.
This is the

YOU SHALL LOVE
YOUR NEIGHBOR AS
YOURSELF.
There
is no greater commandment
than these.
