Serving Through Music This Morning PRAYER AFTER RECEIVING Eternal God, we give thanks for this holy mystery in which you have given yourself to us. Raise us to new life through this sacrament. Grant that we may go into the world in the strength of your Spirit, to give ourselves for others, in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. VIII. Valediction The souls of the righteous are in the hand of God, and there no torment shall touch them. In the sight of the unwise they seemed to die, but they are at peace.

PRELUDE The Innocenti Strings WELCOME AND ANNOUNCEMENTS Pastor Mark Himel +PROCESSIONAL HYMN UMH 711: For All the Saints Sine Nomine WORDS OF PREPARATION Pastor Cindy Marino

I. Sentence: All We Go Down to the Dust All we go down to the dust; yet even at the grave we make our song. Alleluia. II. Introit: Requiem Aeternam Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine. Et lux perpetua luceat eis. Te decet hymnus, Deus, in Sion, Et tibi reddetur votum in Jerusalem Exaudi orationem meam Ad te omnis caro veniet. Eternal rest give unto them, O Lord And let perpetual light shine upon them. A hymn, O God, befits Thee in Zion, and a vow shall be paid to thee in Jerusalem. Hear my prayer.

IV. The Lord is My Shepherd The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not be in want. He makes me lie down in green pastures; he leads me beside still waters; he restores my soul and guides me along right pathways for his name’s sake. Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I shall fear no evil; for you are with me; your rod and your staff—they comfort me. You spread a table before me in the presence of those who trouble me; you have anointed my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely your goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
