ANNOUNCEMENTS
On August 30th, we will hold our Commissioning of Sunday School for the coming year. Classes will start on that date. We have a new curriculum this year, one which is connected to the lectionary, so the children will study the same Scriptures that are read during worship.
Upcoming hymns are listed at the bottom of this page.

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.
Let the nations be glad and sing with joy,
For God guides us all with justice and equity.
Let the people praise God, for how we have been blessed;
Come let us worship and offer all honour and praise.
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)

Merciful God, we confess that we have not lived as you have taught us. Forgive us those times we have not welcomed others into our community; and those times we have avoided others because of our fear and prejudices.
Forgive us the ways we have judged people unfairly. Reveal to us your ways, and show us how to see your goodness in those who seem different from us. 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.

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.

Photos of the week, Aug 16
A family from South America was visiting us today. They have a St. Andrew's Presbyterian church where they live, in Guyana. An organist from Maryland got to chat with David and try the organ after the service. She was visiting with her husband who is a bass. We enjoyed lots of sound and harmonies in our singing today!
