What’s going on:
Order of Worship
Gather
We move from individuals to a collection of persons brought together as Christ’s gathered body, His church. We’ll be welcomed together by singing a song.
Listen
We worship a God who speaks. So in our gathering we listen to hear what God would say to us by singing and hearing scripture, and a sermon.
Respond
We respond to what we have heard, acknowledging that our personal response is deeply personal. We’ll pray, confess, sing, and have an opportunity for generosity.
Feast
We are encountered as a community by the God who forgives and makes us whole by the body and blood of Jesus.
Be Sent
We are each sent back out to embody the hope of Jesus to a weary world.
This Week’s Text
Genesis 3:20-4:2
The man named his wife Eve because she was the mother of all living. And the Lord God made garments of skins for the man and for his wife and clothed them.
Then the Lord God said, “See, the humans have become like one of us, knowing good and evil, and now they might reach out their hands and take also from the tree of life and eat and live forever”— therefore the Lord God sent them forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from which they were taken. He drove out the humans, and at the east of the garden of Eden he placed the cherubim and a sword flaming and turning to guard the way to the tree of life.
Now the man knew his wife Eve, and she conceived and bore Cain, saying, “I have produced a man with the help of the Lord.” Next she bore his brother Abel. Now Abel was a keeper of sheep, and Cain a tiller of the ground.
Give
Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God.
– Hebrews 13:16
We respond to God’s generosity by being generous. If you already regularly give, thank you. If today is your first opportunity to support our community and its mission financially, thank you.
God of mercy you have called us by your grace to be a part of this community. Grant us a sense of belonging, grant us love for one another, grant us the grace to feel responsible for this community and its ministry. Help us to live generous, open handed lives entrusting ourselves to you wholly, even with our finances.
Let us with gladness present the offerings of our life and labor to you Lord. Help us ever be happy givers.
In Jesus name,
Amen
