September 20th Worship Service

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

Welcome

Almighty and eternal God, you show perpetual lovingkindness to us your servants. Because we cannot rely on our own abilities, grant us your merciful judgement, and train us to embody the generosity of your Son, Jesus Christ, our Saviour and Lord. Amen

Call to Worship


CONFESSION AND FORGIVENESS

Blessed be the holy Trinity, one God,
who creates, redeems, and sustains us and all of creation. Amen.
 
Let us confess our sin in the presence of God and of one another.
Silence is kept for reflection
Faithful God,
Have mercy on us.
We confess that we are captive to sin
and cannot free ourselves.
We turn from your loving embrace
and go our own ways.
We pass judgement on one another
before examining ourselves.
We place our own needs before those of our neighbours.
We keep your gift of salvation to ourselves.
Make us humble, cast away our transgressions,
and turn us again to life in you
through Jesus Christ, our Saviour and Lord. Amen.
​
God hears the cries of all who call out in need,
and through his death and resurrection,
Christ has made us his own.
Hear the truth that God proclaims:
Your sins are forgiven in the name of Jesus Christ.
Led by the Holy Spirit, live in freedom and newness
to do God’s work in the world.
Amen.
​

Sharing of the Peace & Special music

Deep peace of the running wave to you
Deep peace of the flowing air to you
Deep peace of the quiet earth to you
Deep peace of the shining stars to you
Deep peace of the gentle night to you
​

Moon and stars pour their healing light on you
Deep peace of Christ, of Christ
Of Christ, the light of the world to you
Deep peace of Christ to you

OFFERTORY Prayer

Thank you to Connor for leading us in 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. Nourish us through these gifts, that we might proclaim your steadfast love in our communities and in the world, through Jesus Christ, our strength and our song.
Amen.

PRAYERS & Blessing

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.

FULFILLING GOD’S VISION FOR OUR LAND: THE NEXT CHAPTER 
Dear Glory Family,
After much anticipation, lots of prayers and work, we are excited to have launched our fundraising campaign - “Fulfilling God’s Vision for our Land: The Next Chapter” -  a chapter of expanded ministry to our church family and the local and worldwide communities.
 
Since our earliest days as a congregation, God has blessed us richly – a place to worship in a beautiful setting, a church family that thrives on joy, a community with both roots and wings.  We come from different backgrounds and experiences but find our common ground in our identity in Jesus and the family of faith He has woven us into – Reaching Up…Reaching Out…Reaching In.

You have probably received a package in the mail by now. If you have not received a package, please contact Heidi in the office to ensure we have your current address and one will be mailed to you. 
You will also find this material and much more on the website under the menu item "Land Purchase".  
 
Please use this information to prayerfully consider your financial contribution toward the purchase of the land. Thank you to those of you who have already made a contribution! Check the Land Purchase page on Glory's website often to follow our progress!
