Fifth Sunday in Lent
NOTRE APPORCHE VERS DIEU / OUR APPROACH TO GOD
BIENVENUE, PRIÈRE ET APPEL À LA CÉLÉBRATION / GREETING, PRAYER AND CALL TO WORSHIP
(Se lever / Congregation rises as the Minister enters)
As I live every day, I want to be a channel for peace. May I bring love where there is hatred and healing where there is hurt; joy where there is sadness, and hope where there is fear. I pray that I may always try to understand and comfort other people, as well as seeking comfort and understanding from them. May I choose always to be a light in the darkness, a help in times of need, and a caring honest friend. And may justice, kindness, and peace flow from my heart forever. Amen.
More than those who watch for the morning,
we wait faithfully for God.
With our questions and our cries, in our hopes and expectations,
we wait faithfully for God.
Come, let us worship the Lord our God together,
and offer our prayers and praise in faithfulness.
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.
And also with you.
Holy God, Holy and mighty
Holy, immortal one
Have mercy upon us (3 times)
LENT CANDLE LITURGY
Anointed before his death by a faithful woman disciple, but betrayed by a self-serving disciple, Jesus confronted death.
But through his death on the cross and the power of the resurrection, in faith we believe that Christ has made us his own.
And so, with shouts of joy, we declare God’s praise for the Lord has done great things for us.

Merciful God, we confess that we have sinned against you in thought, word, and deed, by what we have done, and by what we have left undone. We have not loved you with our whole heart; we have not loved our neighbours as ourselves. Have mercy on us and forgive us; so that we may delight in your will, and walk in your ways, to the glory of your Name. Amen.
LE NOTRE PÈRE / 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 debts as we forgive our debtors. Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil, for thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory. Forever and ever, Amen.

I wait for the Lord; my soul waits; and in the Lord’s word I hope.
My soul waits for the Lord more than those who watch for the morning, more than those who watch for the morning.

Le stationnement le plus proche est à l'hôtel de ville (15$ par jour), ou les parcomètres (6$ pour 2 heures) sur la rue.

For those who have expressed interest in singing as a choir, we are including a list of upcoming hymns to give people the opportunity to learn their parts on their own ahead of time. Please see France at the beginning of the service for sitting assignment. It is important to note that people should not wear perfume while singing close to others.
How to proceed to study the music on your own:
For regular attendees who read music, you may take pictures of the hymns in the hymn book for you to practice at home for the next service. For those learning by ear, many common hymns are available on you tube where you can listen to them ahead of time. During services, the organist always plays the entire hymn once as an introduction, giving you a head start on how it goes.
