August 9th Worship Service

Please note: If having difficulty viewing/listening to the service, please try Chrome or Edge web browsers 

Welcome

O God our defender, storms rage around and within us and cause us to be afraid. Rescue your people from despair, deliver your sons and daughters from fear, and preserve us in the faith of your Son, Jesus Christ our Saviour and Lord. Amen

Call to Worship


CONFESSION AND FORGIVENESS

P:  Blessed be the holy Trinity, one God, whose steadfast love is everlasting, whose faithfulness endures from generation to generation.
C:   Amen
 
P:  Trusting in the mercy of God, let us confess our sin.
 
Silence is kept for reflection.
P:  Reconciling God,
C:  We confess that we do not trust your abundance
and we deny your presence in our lives.
We place our hope in ourselves
and rely on our own efforts.
We fail to believe that you provide enough for all.
We abuse your good creation for our own benefit.
We fear difference and do not welcome others as you have welcomed us.
We sin in thought, word, and deed.
By your grace, forgive us;
through  your love, renew us;
and in your Spirit, lead us;
so that we may live and serve you in newness of life.  Amen.
​P: Beloved of God, by the radical abundance of divine mercy we have peace with God through Jesus Christ, through whom we have obtained grace upon grace.
Our sins are forgiven.
Let us live now in hope.
For hope does not disappoint, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit.
C: Amen.

Lord, Let Us See Your Kindness (Psalm 85)

Let us hear what our God proclaims
Peace to the people of God
Salvation is near to the ones who fear him
Lord, let us see your kindness
Lord, let us see your kindness
Kindness and truth, justice and peace truth shall spring out as the water from the earth
Justice shall reign from the heavens
Lord, let us see your kindness
Lord, let us see your kindness
 
The Lord will come and you shall know his love
Justice shall walk in his pathways
Salvation the gift that he brings

OFFERTORY Prayer

God of goodness and growth, all creation is yours, and your faithfulness is as firm as the heavens. Water and word, wine and bread: these are signs of your abundant grace.

Amen.

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,
the power and the glory,
for ever and ever.
Amen.

Thank you to Edith for leading us in prayer

FUNDRAISING CAMPAIGN COMMITTEE:
As you know, Glory Lutheran Church has come to an agreement with the National Church to purchase the back 28 acres of land for $300,000. We are in the process of creating a Fundraising Campaign Committee to provide leadership to the fundraising initiative. If you are interested in joining this committee, please contact Pat Becker or Aroon Sequeira. We would be especially thankful for volunteers who would be willing to make phone calls. These calls would be to touch base with members of our congregation to see if they have received fundraising materials and if they have any questions. Thank you for prayerfully considering this opportunity.
Aroon Sequeira: 780-901-9469 asequeira@sequeirapartners.com
