Welcome and Announcements & Celebrations

 

*Call to Praise: Unison

In you, O God, every family on earth receives its name. Illumine the homes of this earth with the light of your love, granting courage to those who are hurt or lonely, endurance to those who care for others, and wisdom to those in fearful times of change. We thank you for gifts of love we have received from mothers in our lives. As we have been loved by you and by others, may we love. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.

 

 

*Praise In Song: Faith of Our Mothers # 710

1. Faith of our mothers, living still, in spite of dungeon, fire and sword. O how our hearts beat high with joy when e’er we hear that glorious word.

[Refrain]

Faith of our mothers, holy faith! We will be true to thee till death.

2. Faith of our mothers, we will strive to win all nations unto thee; and through the truth that comes from God, we shall then be truly free.

[Refrain]

3. Faith of our mothers, we will love both friend and foe in all out strife; and preach thee, too, as love knows how by kindly words and virtuous life.

[Refrain]

 

* A Mother Lined A Basket #2189

1. A mother lined a basket to keep her baby dry, then rocked him on a river, lest he awake and cry She let a princess name him her son that he might live. God’s people had a leader. She had such hope to give.

2. A mother sewed a jacket lined in the softest wool, then dressed her little boy-child, her cup of blessing full. She brought him to the temple where he would serve and live. God’s people had a prophet. She had such faith to give.

3.A mother laid her baby in a manger lined with straw; then, in the shepherd’s story, his call from God foresaw. She nurtured him and taught him the way he must live. God’s people had a savior. She had such love to give.

4. Like Jochebed and Hannah, and Mary, too, we know the hardest part of loving is learning to let go. So when we send our children out in the world to live, grant us such hope and faith, God, and love enough to give.

Scripture Reading: Acts 9:36-43

 

Children’s Time

 

Hymn of Prayer: Mothering God, You Gave Me Birth # 2050

1.      Mothering God, you gave birth to me in the bright morning of this world. Creator, source of every breath, you are my rain, my wind, my sun.

2.      Mothering Christ, you took my form, offering me your food of light, grain of life, and grape of love, your very body for my peace.

3.      Mothering Spirit, nurturing one, in arms of patience hold me close, so that in faith I root and grow until I flow’r, until I know.

 

 

Lifting Up Our Prayers

A Prayer for Mothers

The Lord’s 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, for ever and ever. Amen.

 

Offering Our Gifts

*Doxology # 94

Praise God from whom all blessings flow;

Praise God, all creatures here below: Alleluia! Alleluia!

Praise God, the source of all our gifts!

Praise Jesus Christ, whose power uplifts!

Praise the Spirit, Holy Spirit! Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!

 

Special

 

Gospel Lesson: John 10:22-30

 

The Message: Good Works and Acts of Charity

 

Hymn of Going Forth: Let All Things Now Living # 2008

1. Let all things now living a song of thanksgiving to God the Creator triumphantly raise; who fashioned and made us, protected and stayed us, who guides us and leads to the end of our days. God’s banners fly o’er us; God’s light goes before us, a pillar of fire shining forth in the night, till shadows have vanished and darkness is banished, as forward we travel from light into light. 

2. The law God enforces, the stars in their courses and sun in its orbit obediently shine; the hills and the mountains, the rivers and fountains, the deeps of the ocean proclaim the Divine. We, too, should be voicing our love and rejoicing; with glad adoration a song let us raise, till all things now living unite in thanksgiving: To God in the highest hosanna and praise!
