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.
We have come from many places, following different roads.
We come hungering for greater understanding.
We have come to hear the wisdom of Scripture.
We come seeking companions in the faith.
We have come to discover the One revealed in the breaking of the bread.
We come to grow as disciples of Christ.
Come, let us worship God, made known in Christ Jesus.
The Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.
And also with you.
Holy, holy, holy, Lord God almighty!
Early in the morning our song shall rise to Thee;
Holy, holy, holy, merciful and mighty,
God in Three Persons, blessed Trinity! (Sung)

Loving God, we confess that we have sinned against you in thought, word and deed; by what we have done and left undone.

In your mercy, forgive what we have been, amend what we are and direct who we shall be.
in Jesus’ name we pray, 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.

Forever and ever, Amen.

PSAUME / RESPONSIVE READING: 116: 1 – 4, 12 – 19
I love the Lord, who has heard my voice and my supplications.
Because the Lord inclined an ear to me, therefore I will call on the Lord as long as I live.
The snares of death encompassed me; the pangs of Sheol laid hold on me; I suffered distress and anguish.
Then I called on the name of the Lord: “O Lord, I pray, save my life!”
What shall I return to the Lord for all God’s bounty to me?
I will lift up the cup of salvation and call on the name of the Lord, I will pay my vows to the Lord in the presence of all God’s people.
Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of the faithful. O Lord, I am your servant, I am your servant, the child of your handmaid. You have loosed my bonds.
I will offer to you the sacrifice of thanksgiving and call on the name of the Lord.
I will pay my vows to the Lord in the presence of all God’s people, in the courts of the house of the Lord, in your midst, O Jerusalem.
All: Praise the Lord!

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 sit on the side closest to the video camera, or 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.
