Third Sunday of Easter Sunday, May 5, 2019
PRELUDE “Worthy Is the Lamb” from Messiah G. F. Handel
WELCOME AND ANNOUNCING THE DAY
A tended nursery is available during Sunday worship services.
It is located downstairs before you enter Fellowship Hall.
THANKSGIVING FOR BAPTISM (stand)
P: Blessed be the holy Trinity,
one God, the fountain of living water, the rock who gave us birth, our light and our salvation.
C: Amen.
P: Joined to Christ in the waters of baptism, we are clothed with God’s mercy and forgiveness. Let us give thanks for the gift of baptism.
Water may be poured into the font as the presiding minister gives thanks.
We give you thanks, O God, O Living One, for you have created all, and you water the earth abundantly. Oceans and aquifers praise you. Rivers and streams bless you.
Here local bodies of water may be named.
All life is sustained by you, our Source.
We praise you for Christ, the firstborn from the dead, who frees us from sin and raises us up to new life. Here at this font we touch the river of the water of life, bright as crystal, flowing through the city of God. Here, death is washed away forever. Here, we are grafted into the tree of life, with leaves for the healing of the world.
Pour out your Holy Spirit on this assembly, into this community, and throughout all creation. Cleanse us from our fears and drown our divisions. Grant that all may drink of your mercy and peace, through Jesus Christ, our Savior and Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.
C: Amen.
