Hymn        “Open Our Eyes Lord”         TFWS #2086
Open our eyes, Lord, we want to see Jesus,
To reach out and touch him, and say that we love him.
Open our ears, Lord, and help us to listen.
Open our eyes, Lord, we want to see Jesus.
 
The Apostles Creed
I believe in God, the Father Almighty, creator of heaven and earth.
 I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
born of the Virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried;
he descended to the dead.
On the third day he rose again;     
he ascended into heaven,
is seated at the right hand of the Father,
and will come again to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy universal church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and life everlasting.
  
Unison Invocation
Gracious and holy God,
We ask that this time might correct our thinking and influence our actions.
We come to worship you and only you.
We offer this prayer in the name of Jesus, the Christ.
Amen.

We give you thanks, O God, for all the saints who ever worshipped you, whether around campfires at a church camp or in cathedrals, weathered wooden churches filled with memories or crumbling cement basements of church buildings where your name was lifted and adored.

We give you thanks, O God, for hands lifted in praise:
  • Manicured hands and hands stained with grease or soil,
  • Strong hands and those gnarled with age
  • Holy hands that have held hymnbooks and Bibles, that have prepared casseroles and desserts for potlucks and funeral dinners,
  • ​that have been clasped with ours as we prayed together.

We thank you, God, for hardworking saints;

Whether hard-hatted or steel-booted, wearing an apron or with dirt under their finger nails. Educators, Farmers, Office managers, Electricians, Business owners, Mothers, Fathers, Brothers, Sisters, Grandparents, Daughters.

They left their mark on the earth for you, for us, for our children to come.

Thank you, God, for the tremendous sacrifices made by those who have gone before us.
Bless the memories of your saints, God, for they have shown us the way by walking it.

May we learn how to walk wisely from their examples of faith, dedication, worship, and love. 

The Lord's Prayer (in Unison)
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 and ever. Amen.

  
Message        “You Must be Careful”      Matthew 23:1-12
 
Hymn                  “Lord of the Dance”         UMH #261
I danced in the morning when the world was begun,
And I danced in the moon and the stars and the sun,
And I came down from heaven and I danced on the earth.
At Bethlehem I had my birth.
 
Refrain
Dance, then, wherever you may be;
I am the Lord of the Dance, said he.
And I’ll lead you all wherever you may be 
and I’ll lead you all in the dance, said he.
 
I danced for the scribe and the Pharisee,
But they would not dance and they would not follow me;
I danced for the fishermen, for James and John;
They came to me and the dance went on.   Refrain
     
The Communion Service
           Communion Hymn                     
Our Lord invites to his table all who love him,
Who earnestly repent of their sin and seek to live in peace with one another.
Let us confess our sin before God and one another.
 
Prayer of Confession and Pardon
Merciful God, we confess that we have not loved you with our whole heart.
Our faith has been tested and we have stumbled.
Forgive us, we pray.
Our feet have strayed from the path of Christ and we have wandered from you.
Forgive us, we pray.
We have put our faith in the loud voices of this world, ignoring your whispers.
Forgive us, we pray.
 We do want to follow Jesus, the Christ, in whose name we pray.
Amen.
 
Hear the good news;
Christ died for us while we were yet sinners. That proves God’s love for us.
In the name of Jesus Christ, you are forgiven.
 
In the name of Jesus Christ, you are forgiven.
Thanks be to God!
 
Bread and Cup
Please take the bread.
Please take the cup.
 
Please pray:
Eternal God, we give you thanks for this holy mystery
in which “the Word became flesh and dwelt among us.”
Strengthen us in mind, body and soul for the days ahead.
May your Spirit fill us as we live and pray in Jesus’ name.
Amen.
 
Unison Benediction
May the peace of the Lord Jesus go with you
wherever he may send you.

May he guide you through the wilderness, 
protect you through the storm.
May he bring you home rejoicing
at the wonders he has shown you.

May he bring you home rejoicing once again into our doors.
 
God be with you ‘til we meet again.
 
Postlude                                           Marching to Zion                                          Robert Lowry
