OFFERING

Offering

As the offering is brought forward, the people stand and sing Hymn 774

For the life that you have given,

for the love in Christ made known,

with these fruits of time and labour,

with these gifts that are your own;

here we offer, Lord, our praises;

heart and mind and strength we bring;

give us grace to love and serve you,

living what we pray and sing.

OFFERTORY PRAYER

PRAYERS OF THE PEOPLE

The Lord’s Prayer

Our Father in Heaven, hallowed be your name.

Your kingdom come.

Your will be done on earth as in heaven.

Give us today our daily bread.

Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us.

Save us from the time of trial and deliver us from evil.

For the kingdom, the power and the glory are yours, now and forever. Amen.

SENDING OUT OF THE PEOPLE

DISMISSAL AND BLESSING

RECESSIONAL

May the feet of God

walk with you,

and his hand hold you tight.

May the eye of God

rest on you,

and his ear hear your cry.

May the smile of God

be for you,

and his breath give you life.

May the child of God

grow in you,

and his love bring you home.Aubrey Podlich
