Today’s bulletin is in memory of Bob Mott and Marjory Blue.
Unlike a fairy tale, the parable (of the prodigal son) provides no happy ending. Instead, it leaves us face to face with one of life’s hardest spiritual choices: to trust or not to trust in God’s all-forgiving love. (Henri Nouwen)
We Gather As God’s People
Silent Prayer
Hymn: When morning gilds the skies #438
Call to Worship: (from Psalm 105 & 106)
Give thanks to the Lord, call on his name;
make known among the nations what he has done.
Sing to him; sing praise to him,
tell of all his wonderful acts.
Glory in his holy name;
let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice.
Look to the Lord and his strength;
seek his face always.
Remember the wonders he has done, his miracles,
and the judgments he pronounced.
He is the Lord our God;
he remembers his covenant forever.
Who can proclaim the mighty acts of the Lord
or fully declare his praise?
Give thanks to the Lord for he is good;
his love endures forever.
