Opening Words
Lighting
the Chalice Flame (in unison): We light this chalice, recognizing
our connective power and accepting our responsibility to be bold and
courageous. Let this light be our symbol as we encourage those within and
beyond our walls.

Offertory: Blue Boat Home by Peter Mayer
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: #149 Lift Every Voice and Sing
Sermon: Songs of Protest Jackie Maye
*Hymn #169 We Shall Overcome
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.
