April 16 Easter Service



At the sound of the chime, please join in singing Hymn #188 Come, Come, Whoever You Are

Welcome & Announcements

Prelude: I Live All Graceful Things by Thiman
Opening Words
 
Lighting the Chalice Flame (in unison):
Come we now out of the darkness of our unknowing and the dusk of our dreaming; Come we now from far places. Come we now into the twilight of our awakening and the reflection of our gathering. Come we now all together.

*Hymn: # 38 Morning Has Broken

Candles of Joy and Sorrow and Meditation  

Reading: We’re Not Sure by Daniel Budd

Offertory:  Easter Melody by Elvey

Affirmation (in unison) Love is the spirit of this congregation and service is its law. This is our great covenant: to dwell together in peace, to seek the truth in love and to help one another.

*Hymn: # 124 Be That Guide  
         
Sermon:   Roll That Stone Away
                     Rev. CJ McGregor

*Hymn: # 163 For the Earth Forever Turning

Extinguishing the Chalice Flame (in unison) We extinguish this flame, but not the light of truth, the warmth of community, or the fire of commitment. These we carry in our hearts until we are together again.

Closing Words

Postlude:  Trumpet Voluntary by Clarke
