St. Valentine's Day
Epiphany 6C
The flowers gracing the
altar are given to the glory of God and in loving memory of father
Gottlieb F. Zeltman and brother Howard E. Zeltman by Lucille L. James.
We
invite you to maintain a spirit of silence as the prelude begins our
service.
OUR
APPROACH TO GOD
Prelude
Introit
Call
to Worship:
Come, bless the Lord, all you
servants of the Lord:
WE WHO STAND BY NIGHT
IN THE HOUSE OF THE LORD!
Lift up your hands to
the holy place, and bless the Lord!
MAY THE
LORD BLESS YOU FROM ZION! GOD WHO MADE HEAVEN AND EARTH!
Let
us be before our God in
silence.
Opening
Prayer: Isaiah 61:10ff
I WILL GREATLY REJOICE IN
THE LORD, MY
WHOLE BEING SHALL EXULT IN MY GOD; FOR GOD HAS CLOTHED ME
WITH THE
GARMENTS OF SALVATION, GOD HAS COVERED ME WITH THE
ROBE OF
RIGHTEOUSNESS...FOR AS THE EARTH BRINGS FORTH ITS SHOOTS,
AND AS A
GARDEN CAUSES WHAT IS SOWN TO SPRING UP, SO THE LORD
GOD WILL
CAUSE RIGHTEOUSNESS AND PRAISE TO SPRING UP BEFORE
ALL THE NATIONS.
Kyrie (sung)
LORD, HAVE MERCY ON US.
CHRIST, HAVE MERCY ON US.
LORD, HAVE MERCY ON US.
A Word of
Assurance
The
Summary of God's
Law (Mk 12:29b-31)
This is the
first commandment:
HEAR O
ISRAEL,
THE LORD OUR GOD,
THE LORD IS ONE!
THEREFORE YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD
WITH ALL YOUR HEART,
WITH ALL YOUR SOUL,
WITH ALL YOUR MIND,
AND WITH ALL YOUR STRENGTH.
This is the
second commandment:
YOU SHALL LOVE
YOUR NEIGHBOR AS
YOURSELF.
There
is no greater commandment
than these.
