John Hill Centering Music: Come and Fill This Place: Caleb Dinger, Piano Opening Prayer : Rev. Chelsey Hedglin Hymns: Hosanna and How Can We Name a Love Hosanna (Praise Is Rising) Verse 1 Praise is rising Eyes are turning to You We turn to You Hope is stirring Hearts are yearning for You We long for You Pre-chorus “Cause when we see You We find strength to face the day In Your presence All our fears are washed away Washed away Chorus Hosanna hosanna You are the God who saves us Worthy of all our praises Hosanna hosanna come have Your way among us We welcome You here Lord Jesus Verse 2 Hear the sound of Hearts returning to You We turn to You In Your Kingdom Broken lives are made new You make us new Repeat Pre-chorus and Chorus twice How Can We Name a Love How can we name a Love that wakens heart and mind, indwelling all we know or think or do or seek or find? Within our daily world, in every human face, Love’s echoes sound and God is found, hid in the commonplace. If we awoke to life built on a rock of care that asked no great reward but firm, assured, was simply there, we can, with parents’ names, describe, and thus adore, Love unconfined, our father kind, our mother strong and sure. When people share a task, and strength and skills unite in projects old or new, to make or do with shared delight, our Friend and Partner’s will is better understood, that all should share, create, and care, and know that life is good. So in a hundred names, each day we all can meet a presence, sensed and shown at work, at home, or in the street. Yet every name we see, shine in a brighter sun: In Christ alone is Love full grown and life and hope begun. Ministry Moment: Congregational Care Team Chair: Mary Bryan Scripture Reading: 1 Timothy 6:18-19: Rev. John Hill They are to do good, to be rich in good works, generous, and ready to share, thus storing up for themselves the treasure of a good foundation for the future, so that they may take hold of the life that really is life. Sermon: Extravagant Generosity: Rev. Chelsey Hedglin Instrumental Reflection: Give Thanks: Caleb Dinger, Piano Pastoral Prayer: Rev. John Hill Invitation to Offer Tithes and Gifts: Rev. John Hill https://onrealm.org/CrievewoodUMC/Give Offertory Anthem: Live Love: written, sung, and played on guitar by Barry Coggins Prayer of Confession: Rev. Chelsey Hedglin Kyrie Words of Assurance Hear the Good News: Christ died for us while we were yet sinners. That proves God’s love toward us. In the name of Jesus Christ, you are forgiven. In the name of Jesus Christ, you are forgiven. Glory to God! Amen. Closing Hymn: The Gift of Love The Gift of LoveThough I may speak with bravest fire, and have the gift to all inspire, and have not love, my words are vain, as sounding brass, and hopeless gain. Though I may give all I possess, and striving so my love profess, but not be given by love within, the profit soon turns strangely thin. Come, Spirit, come, our hearts control, our spirits long to be made whole. Let inward love guide every deed; by this we worship, and are freed. Benediction: Rev. Chelsey Hedglin |
