My soul does long, and even faints for You

For here my heart is satisfied

Your wings

CONFESSION AND FORGIVENESSL: We confess our sins before God and one another.

Pause for silence and reflection.

L: God of new life,

C: You have created and redeemed all things through

the gift of your son. Yet we often live as though it

makes no difference for us. We choose to remain

stuck in old patterns, cling to the familiar and safe,

and refuse opportunities to step out in courage and

faith. Forgive our cowardice, stubbornness, and

willful disobedience. Amen.

L: The Lord is risen, and with his resurrection brings a

new day, a new chance to make new choices, and

renewal between people, creation, and creator. Rejoice

that you have been forgiven and called sisters and

brothers of our savior and Lord! Amen.

Holy Communion is open to all who confess Jesus

as Lord and believe that Jesus is present in the Bread

and Wine. If you desire gluten-free wafers, let the pastor

know at the time of distribution. Glasses of white grape

juice are available in each tray for those who do not wish

to receive wine.

WORDS OF

INSTITUTION

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, FOREVER AND EVER. AMEN.

INVITATION TO COMMUNION

P: United in faith, we join the feast of the risen

Christ. Alleluia!

Strong Enough

You must

You must think

I'm strong

To give me what I'm

going through

Well, forgive me

Forgive me if I'm wrong

But this looks like more

Than I can do

On my own

I know I'm not strong enough to be

Everything that I'm supposed to be

I give up, I'm not strong enough

Hands of mercy won't You cover me

Lord, right now I'm asking You to be

Strong enough,

Strong enough

For the both of us

Well, maybe

Maybe that's the point

To reach the point

of giving up

Cause when I'm finally,

Finally at rock bottom

Well, that's when I start looking up

And reaching out

I know I'm not strong enough to be

Everything that I'm supposed to be

I give up, I'm not strong enough

Hands of mercy won't You cover me

Lord, right now I'm asking You to be

Strong enough,

Strong enough

Cause I'm broken

Down to nothing

But I'm still holding on

To the one thing

You are God and

You are strong when

I am weak

I can do all things

Through Christ who gives

Me strength

And I don't have to be

Strong enough,

Strong enough

I can do all things

Through Christ who gives

Me strength

And I don't have to be

Strong enough,

Strong enough

I know I'm not strong enough to be

Everything that I'm supposed to be

I give up, I'm not strong enough

Hands of mercy won't You cover me

Lord, right now I'm asking You to be

Strong enough,

Strong enough

Strong enough

POST-COMMUNION BLESSING P: The body and blood of our Lord Jesus Christ

strengthen you and keep you in his grace.

C: Amen.

POST-COMMUNION PRAYERP: It is only through Your grace, O Lord, that we are able

to approach Your table,

C: and it is only through Your Son’s mercy that we

are forgiven. Empower us to share that same grace

and mercy with all of creation. Amen.

READING ACTS 10:34-43Then Peter began to speak to them: “I truly understand that

God shows no partiality, but in every nation anyone who

fears him and does what is right is acceptable to him. You

know the message he sent to the people of Israel,

preaching peace by Jesus Christ—he is Lord of all. That

message spread throughout Judea, beginning in Galilee

after the baptism that John announced: how God anointed

Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power; how

he went about doing good and healing all who were

oppressed by the devil, for God was with him.

We are witnesses to all that he did both in Judea and in

Jerusalem. They put him to death by hanging him on a tree; but

God raised him on the third day and allowed him to appear, not

to all the people but to us who were chosen by God as

witnesses, and who ate and drank with him after he rose from

the dead. He commanded us to preach to the people and to

testify that he is the one ordained by God as judge of the living

and the dead. All the prophets testify about him that everyone

who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins through his

name.”

L: THE WORD OF THE LORD,

C. THANKS BE TO GOD.

All Who Are Thirsty

All who are thirsty,

All who are weak

Just come to the fountain

Dip your heart in the

stream of life

Let the pain and the

sorrow

Be washed away

In the waves of His

mercy

As deep cries out

to deep

We sing…

Come Lord Jesus,

Come

Come Lord Jesus,

Come

Come Lord Jesus,

Come

Come Lord Jesus,

Come

All who are thirsty, All who are weak

Just come to the fountain

Dip your heart in the stream of life

Let the pain and the

sorrow

Be washed away

In the waves of His

mercy

As deep cries out

to deep

We sing…

Come Lord Jesus,

Come

Come Lord Jesus,

Come

Come Lord Jesus,

Come

Come Lord Jesus,

Come

Won’t you come

Won’t you come

Come Lord Jesus,come

Come Lord Jesus,come

Come Lord Jesus,come

Come Lord Jesus,come
