Welcome to Immanuel! Guest/Member Cards can be found in the card holder of the pew in front of
you. We invite you to fill out the card and place it in the offering plate when we
receive the offering. When you fill out these cards each week you make it
possible for our pastors to more easily follow up with and provide pastoral care
for our guests and members from week to week. If you have any questions,
please let us know.
Holy Communion is distributed during this service. In this Supper of our Lord
we receive the true body and blood of our Lord Jesus Christ under the earthly
forms of bread and wine for the forgiveness of our sins and the strengthening of
our faith. Since this Holy Communion is also a sign of our common confession
of the Christian faith, we welcome to the Lord's Table those who are confirmed
members of our Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod. If you have any questions,
please feel free to ask the pastor before or after the service.
If for health or personal reasons you cannot drink wine, the lighter colored
glasses in the center of the tray of individual cups contain water with a drop of
wine. These special glasses allow communicants to celebrate the Lord's Supper
according to Christ's institution, while only consuming a very small amount of
alcohol. You are also welcome to practice intinction (dipping the edge of the
host [bread] into the common cup as it passes by).
Worship at lmmanuel is...
Christ Centered. We believe that at the heart of worship is the Good News that
God has rescued us from our sins through Jesus' death on the cross and rising to
life again.
Trinitarian. We believe that the object of worship is the only true God-The
Trinity: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Multigenerational. We believe that it is a great blessing for family members to
worship together. Taking seriously Jesus' words, "Let the little children come to
me and so not forbid them" (Mark 10:14), we encourage children to worship
with their parents and grandparents and provide resources such as children's
bulletins and children's sermons.
Eclectic. Eclectic means, "selecting what seems best of various sources." We
believe that we should strive to use the best hymns and practices that the church
has to offer. Our worship may include hymns written 500 years ago as well as
pieces written 5 months ago.

In preparation for worship we ask that you silence your cell phones and/or
paging devices. Thank you. The time before service begins can be a good time
to pray and prepare your heart and mind for worship. You will find helpful
prayers on the inside cover of the hymnal located in the pew in front of you.

OPENING HYMN, LSB 445, “When You Woke That Thursday
Morning” [Text: © 1991 Concordia Publishing House. Used by permission: LSB Hymn License no. 110001526.]
1 When You woke that Thursday morning,
Savior, teacher, faithful friend,
Thoughts of self and safety scorning,
Knowing how the day would end;
Lamb of God, foretold for ages,
Now at last the hour had come
When but One could pay sin’s wages:
You assumed their dreadful sum.
2 Never so alone and lonely,
Longing with tormented heart
To be with Your dear ones only
For a quiet hour apart:
Sinless Lamb and fallen creature,
One last paschal meal to eat,
One last lesson as their teacher,
Washing Your disciples’ feet.
3 What was there that You could give them
That would never be outspent,
What great gift that would outlive them,
What last will and testament?
“Show Me and the world you love Me,
Know Me as the Lamb of God:
Do this in remembrance of Me,
Eat this body, drink this blood.”

4 One in faith, in love united,
All one body, You the head,
When we meet, by You invited,
You are with us, as You said.
One with You and one another
In a unity sublime,
See in us Your sister, brother,
One in ev’ry place and time.
5 One day all the Church will capture
That bright vision glorious,
And Your saints will know the rapture
That Your heart desired for us,
When the longed-for peace and union
Of the Greatest and the least
Meet in joyous, blest communion
In Your never-ending feast.

INVOCATION
P: In the name of the Father, and of the + Son, and of the Holy
Spirit.
C: Amen. (Matthew 28:19b; [18:20])
CONFESSION AND ABSOLUTION (1 John 1:8-9)
P: If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is
not in us.
C: But if we confess our sins, God, who is faithful and just, will
forgive our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
Silence for reflection on God’s Word and for self-examination.
P: Let us then confess our sins to God our Father.
C: Most merciful God, we confess that we are by nature sinful
and unclean. We have sinned against You in thought, word,
and deed, by what we have done and by what we have left
undone. We have not loved You with our whole heart; we
have not loved our neighbors as ourselves. We justly deserve
Your present and eternal punishment. For the sake of Your
Son, Jesus Christ, have mercy on us. Forgive us, renew us,
and lead us, so that we may delight in Your will and walk in
Your ways to the glory of Your holy name. Amen.

P: Almighty God in His mercy has given His Son to die for you and
for His sake forgives you all your sins. As a called and ordained
servant of Christ, and by His authority, I therefore forgive you
all your sins in the name of the Father and of the + Son and of
the Holy Spirit. (John 20:19-23)
C: Amen.
+ SERVICE OF THE WORD +
INTROIT OF THE DAY (Psalm 116:1-4; antiphon: v. 5)
Gracious is the LORD, and righteous;
our God is merciful.
I love the LORD, because he has heard
my voice and my pleas for mercy.
Because he inclined his ear to me,
therefore I will call on him 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, deliver my soul!”
Glory be to the Father and to the Son
and to the Holy Spirit;
as it was in the beginning,
is now, and will be forever. Amen.
Gracious is the LORD, and righteous;
our God is merciful.

forever. Amen.

OLD TESTAMENT READING, Exodus 24:3-11 3Moses came and told the people all the words of the LORD and all the just
decrees. And all the people answered with one voice and said, “All the words
that the LORD has spoken we will do.” 4And Moses wrote down all the words of
![Page 7: [] Indicates material parenthetical to the worship ... · If for health or personal reasons you cannot drink wine, the lighter colored glasses in the center of the tray of individual](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022050508/5f9916698b0f4f00426d7500/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

the LORD. He rose early in the morning and built an altar at the foot of the
mountain, and twelve pillars, according to the twelve tribes of Israel. 5And he
sent young men of the people of Israel, who offered burnt offerings and
sacrificed peace offerings of oxen to the LORD. 6And Moses took half of the
blood and put it in basins, and half of the blood he threw against the altar. 7Then
he took the Book of the Covenant and read it in the hearing of the people. And
they said, “All that the LORD has spoken we will do, and we will be obedient.” 8And Moses took the blood and threw it on the people and said, “Behold the
blood of the covenant that the LORD has made with you in accordance with all
these words.” 9Then Moses and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the
elders of Israel went up, 10and they saw the God of Israel. There was under his
feet as it were a pavement of sapphire stone, like the very heaven for clearness. 11And he did not lay his hand on the chief men of the people of Israel; they
beheld God, and ate and drank.
After the reading:
L: This is the Word of our Lord.
C: Thanks be to God.
EPISTLE, Hebrews 9:11-22 11When Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things that have come, then
through the greater and more perfect tent (not made with hands, that is, not of
this creation) 12he entered once for all into the holy places, not by means of the
blood of goats and calves but by means of his own blood, thus securing an
eternal redemption. 13For if the sprinkling of defiled persons with the blood of
goats and bulls and with the ashes of a heifer sanctifies for the purification of the
flesh, 14how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit
offered himself without blemish to God, purify our conscience from dead works
to serve the living God. 15Therefore he is the mediator of a new covenant, so that
those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance, since a death
has occurred that redeems them from the transgressions committed under the
first covenant. 16For where a will is involved, the death of the one who made it
must be established. 17For a will takes effect only at death, since it is not in force
as long as the one who made it is alive. 18Therefore not even the first covenant
was inaugurated without blood. 19For when every commandment of the law had
been declared by Moses to all the people, he took the blood of calves and goats,
with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and
all the people, 20saying, “This is the blood of the covenant that God commanded
for you.” 21And in the same way he sprinkled with the blood both the tent and all
the vessels used in worship. 22Indeed, under the law almost everything is
purified with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness of
sins.
After the reading:
L: This is the Word of our Lord.
C: Thanks be to God.

LENTEN VERSE
HOLY GOSPEL, Matthew 26:17-30
P: The Holy Gospel according to St. Matthew, the 26th chapter.
17Now on the first day of Unleavened Bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying,
“Where will you have us prepare for you to eat the Passover?” 18He said, “Go
into the city to a certain man and say to him, ‘The Teacher says, My time is at
hand. I will keep the Passover at your house with my disciples.’” 19And the
disciples did as Jesus had directed them, and they prepared the Passover. 20When it was evening, he reclined at table with the twelve. 21And as they were
eating, he said, “Truly, I say to you, one of you will betray me.” 22And they were
very sorrowful and began to say to him one after another, “Is it I, Lord?” 23He
answered, “He who has dipped his hand in the dish with me will betray me. 24The Son of Man goes as it is written of him, but woe to that man by whom the
Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been better for that man if he had not
been born.” 25Judas, who would betray him, answered, “Is it I, Rabbi?” He said
to him, “You have said so.” 26Now as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and
after blessing it broke it and gave it to the disciples, and said, “Take, eat; this is
my body.” 27And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks he gave it to
them, saying, “Drink of it, all of you, 28for this is my blood of the covenant,
which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins. 29I tell you I will not
drink again of this fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new with you in
my Father’s kingdom.” 30And when they had sung a hymn, they went out to the
Mount of Olives.
P: This is the Gospel of the Lord.

HYMN OF THE DAY, “How Deep the Father’s Love” (Townend)
How deep the Father's love for us,
How vast beyond all measure
That He should give His only Son
To make a wretch His treasure
![Page 9: [] Indicates material parenthetical to the worship ... · If for health or personal reasons you cannot drink wine, the lighter colored glasses in the center of the tray of individual](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022050508/5f9916698b0f4f00426d7500/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

How great the pain of searing loss,
The Father turns His face away
As wounds which mar the chosen One,
Bring many sons to glory
Behold the Man upon a cross,
My sin upon His shoulders
Ashamed I hear my mocking voice,
Call out among the scoffers
It was my sin that held Him there
Until it was accomplished
His dying breath has brought me life
I know that it is finished
I will not boast in anything
No gifts, no power, no wisdom
But I will boast in Jesus Christ
His death and resurrection
Why should I gain from His reward?
I cannot give an answer
But this I know with all my heart
His wounds have paid my ransom

NICENE CREED
C: I believe in one God, the Father Almighty, maker of heaven
and earth and of all things visible and invisible. And in one
Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, begotten of
His Father before all worlds, God of God, Light of Light,
very God of very God, begotten, not made, being of one
substance with the Father, by whom all things were made;
who for us men and for our salvation came down from
heaven and was incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the virgin
Mary and was made man; and was crucified also for us
under Pontius Pilate. He suffered and was buried. And the
third day He rose again according to the Scriptures and
ascended into heaven and sits at the right hand of the Father.

And He will come again with glory to judge both the living
and the dead, whose kingdom will have no end. And I
believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and giver of life, who
proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father
and the Son together is worshiped and glorified, who spoke
by the prophets. And I believe in one holy Christian and
apostolic Church, I acknowledge one Baptism for the
remission of sins, and I look for the resurrection of the dead
and the life + of the world to come. Amen.

Behold the Lamb who bears our sins away,
Slain for us - and we remember
The promise made that all who come in faith
Find forgiveness at the cross.
So we share in this bread of life,
And we drink of His sacrifice
As a sign of our bonds of peace
Around the table of the King.
The body of our Saviour Jesus Christ,
Torn for you - eat and remember
The wounds that heal, the death that brings us life
Paid the price to make us one.
So we share in this bread of life,
And we drink of His sacrifice
As a sign of our bonds of love
Around the table of the King.
The blood that cleanses every stain of sin,
Shed for you - drink and remember
He drained death’s cup that all may enter in
To receive the life of God.
So we share in this bread of life,
And we drink of His sacrifice
As a sign of our bonds of grace
Around the table of the King.
And so with thankfulness and faith we rise
To respond, - and to remember
Our call to follow in the steps of Christ
As His body here on earth.
As we share in His suffering
We proclaim Christ will come again!
And we’ll join in the feast of heaven
Around the table of the King.

STRIPPING OF THE ALTAR The Communion vessels are reverently removed from the altar, the altar is
stripped, and the chancel is cleared in preparation for the solemn services of
Good Friday.
PSALM 22 1My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?
Why are you so far from saving me, from the words of my groaning? 2O my God, I cry by day, but you do not answer,
and by night, but I find no rest. 3Yet you are holy,
enthroned on the praises of Israel. 4In you our fathers trusted;
they trusted, and you delivered them. 5To you they cried and were rescued;
in you they trusted and were not put to shame. 6But I am a worm and not a man,
scorned by mankind and despised by the people. 7All who see me mock me;
they make mouths at me; they wag their heads; 8“He trusts in the LORD; let him deliver him;
let him rescue him, for he delights in him!” 9Yet you are he who took me from the womb;
you made me trust you at my mother’s breasts. 10On you was I cast from my birth,
and from my mother’s womb you have been my God. 11Be not far from me,
for trouble is near, and there is none to help. 12Many bulls encompass me;
strong bulls of Bashan surround me;
![Page 15: [] Indicates material parenthetical to the worship ... · If for health or personal reasons you cannot drink wine, the lighter colored glasses in the center of the tray of individual](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022050508/5f9916698b0f4f00426d7500/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

13they open wide their mouths at me,
like a ravening and roaring lion. 14I am poured out like water,
and all my bones are out of joint;
my heart is like wax;
it is melted within my breast; 15my strength is dried up like a potsherd,
and my tongue sticks to my jaws; you lay me in the dust of death. 16For dogs encompass me;
a company of evildoers encircles me;
they have pierced my hands and feet— 17I can count all my bones—
they stare and gloat over me; 18they divide my garments among them,
and for my clothing they cast lots. 19But you, O LORD, do not be far off!
O you my help, come quickly to my aid! 20Deliver my soul from the sword,
my precious life from the power of the dog! 21Save me from the mouth of the lion!
You have rescued me from the horns of the wild oxen! 22I will tell of your name to my brothers;
in the midst of the congregation I will praise you: 23You who fear the LORD, praise him!
All you offspring of Jacob, glorify him,
and stand in awe of him, all you offspring of Israel! 24For he has not despised or abhorred
the affliction of the afflicted,
and he has not hidden his face from him,
but has heard, when he cried to him. 25From you comes my praise in the great congregation;
my vows I will perform before those who fear him. 26The afflicted shall eat and be satisfied;
those who seek him shall praise the LORD! May your hearts live forever! 27All the ends of the earth shall remember
and turn to the LORD,
and all the families of the nations
shall worship before you. 28For kingship belongs to the LORD,
and he rules over the nations.

29All the prosperous of the earth eat and worship;
before him shall bow all who go down to the dust, even the one who
could not keep himself alive. 30Posterity shall serve him;
it shall be told of the Lord to the coming generation; 31they shall come and proclaim his righteousness to a people yet unborn,
that he has done it.
