GATHERING MUSIC Hope Schmitz

WELCOME Levi Murray, MTh

CALL TO WORSHIP Chris Lindquist

ONE: God is an invitation. A lure.

ALL: A chance to do things differently.

ONE: Always before us, God is the possibility of collective change. Though everyday ordinary patterns of living disguise evil and cover over sins of power,

ALL: God makes known what is hidden, calls us to courage, makes us capable of radical solidarity. We are not left powerless.

ONE: Every day there are openings. Every day a chance to choose what is right. Every day an opportunity to re-pattern the world.

The Lord’s Prayer:

Our Creator who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.

Thy kin-dom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. 

Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts, 

as we forgive our debtors, and lead us not into temptation, 

but deliver us from evil for thine is the kin-dom, 

and the power, and the glory forever. Amen.

BENEDICTION Levi Murray, MTh

POSTLUDE Hope Schmitz

*In an effort to remain true to our tradition as well as our commitment to inclusive language, the word “kin-dom” reflects the kind of society Jesus envisions—a shared community of equals who serve each other, united in a kin-group, not by blood but by a covenant with God and one another.

Welcome Guests and Visitors!

We invite you to wear a name tag and complete a visitor card; (both found in the Narthex) and drop it in the offering plate so we can send you weekly emails and call if desired. We invite everyone to join us for coffee, treats and fellowship before worship in the foyer.

References to God in traditional prayers, readings, and hymns in our worship may sometimes be gender specific. As we pray and sing together, you are invited to substitute terms that reflect your understanding of the full inclusiveness of the spirit of God.

We acknowledge that the land on which this church stands is the homeland and unceded territory of the Tséstho’e (Cheyenne). We acknowledge this indigenous community who stewarded this land throughout the generations and pay respect to their elders past and present.
