The Order of Worship for This Sunday



Call to Worship  (from the Presbyterian Church USA)

We worship the God who inhabits our world and indwells our lives.
We need not look up to find God, we need only to look around:
   within ourselves,
   beyond ourselves,
   into the eyes of another.
We need not listen for a distant thunder to find God, we need only listen to the music of life,
   the words of children,
   the questions of the curious,
   the rhythm of a heartbeat.
Let us worship the God who inhabits our world and who indwells our lives. Amen!

Sunday's Scripture Reading





John 14:15-21  (New Revised Standard Version)
 
15  "If you love me, you will keep my commandments. 
16  And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate, to be with you forever. 
17  This is the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, because he abides with you, and he will be in you.
18  "I will not leave you orphaned; I am coming to you. 
19  In a little while the world will no longer see me, but you will see me; because I live, you also will live. 
20  On that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you. 
21  They who have my commandments and keep them are those who love me; and those who love me will be loved by my Father, and I will love them and reveal myself to them."
