Note that, for the summer, our Zoom Link is different, as Alan Crowley of Good Shepherd will be hosting the online gathering.
Were not our hearts burn -ing as He spoke
Were not His words words we longed to hear
Were not our eyes opened in the breaking of the bread
Were not our hearts burn -ing as He spoke
Our God is here He walks among us
When two or three of us are gathered in his name
Our God is here and he surrounds us
And all creation sings the glory of his name
And we shall rise, as he is risen
And though he promised us we did not understand
Yes we shall as hi is risen
And we will know him when he calls to us by name
Mark 6:1-7
1 He left that place and came to his hometown, and his disciples followed him. 2 On the sabbath he began to teach in the synagogue, and many who heard him were astounded. They said, "Where did this man get all this? What is this wisdom that has been given to him? What deeds of power are being done by his hands! 3 Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary and brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon, and are not his sisters here with us?" And they took offense at him. 4 Then Jesus said to them, "Prophets are not without honor, except in their hometown, and among their own kin, and in their own house." 5 And he could do no deed of power there, except that he laid his hands on a few sick people and cured them. 6 And he was amazed at their unbelief. Then he went about among the villages teaching. 7 He called the twelve and began to send them out two by two, and gave them authority over the unclean spirits.
Lord's Prayer (recited together). |
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 trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And 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.
Closing Prayer
- Guardian of the weak, through the teachings of your prophets you have claimed our cities, towns, and homes as temples of your presence and citadels of your justice. Turn the places we live into strongholds of your grace, that the most vulnerable as well as the most powerful among us may find peace in the security that comes in the strong name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
