Prelude: Long and Winding Road, by
The Beatles
Opening Words
Lighting the Chalice Flame (in unison):
Every endeavor begins with a
first step and encounters darkness and difficulty along the way. We know the
darkness of ignorance, of fear and of tyranny. Yet we know the dawning of the
light, the beginning of hope and the renewal of life. Blessed be the eternal
power which inspires us. Blessed be the source of light and of life. Written
by Rev. Charles F Flagg, UU minister
Song: Home, recorded
by Phil Phillips, performed today by Dan Lambert and Gary Evans.
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.
Silence
for Prayer and Meditation, Candle Lighting
First Reading: John
13:35. By this everyone will know that
you are my disciples, if you love one
another. (NIV)
Second Reading: John
15:13 Greater Love has no one than this: to lay down one’s
life for one another. (NIV)
Third Reading: 7 principles of the UU (please turn to the back of your bulletin)
Offering Song:

by Tessa Netting, originally written/recorded by Kansas.

Tess Lambert
Song:
What the World
Needs Now (see Insert) written by Hal David, composed by Burt Bacharach.
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
