GREETING ONE ANOTHER
(Please take time to sign the ritual of friendship pad located at the end of the pew)
*CALL TO WORSHIP
L: I am so lost. Even in crowds, I feel as though I am invisible, as
though I am nothing. I don’t belong anywhere. No one knows my
name. My name is Sorrow.
P: Come, child. Enter into God’s presence where your name is
changed to Joy.
L: It doesn’t seem to matter how hard I try, life just keeps kicking me
down. I lose more than I win. I feel as though I am in an uphill
struggle and the slope is slippery. I don’t have a chance.
My name is Despair.
P: Come, child. Enter into God’s presence where your name is
changed to Hope.
L: I can sing the fervent songs with the best of them. I can shout
praises to the skies, but truly I feel abandoned. I pray and the
answer does not come. I participate in ministries to help others but
feel cut adrift in my own anguish. My name is Doubt.
P: Come, child. Enter into God’s presence where your name is
changed to Faith.
L: Inner turmoil seems to be part of my life. On the outside, it looks
as though everything is fine and dandy, but I know my inner self –
and I am hurting and wounded. I am afraid that others will see that
part of me and walk away, so I pretend to be OK. My name is Fear.
P: Come, child. Enter into God’s presence where your name is
changed to Love.
L: For all who sorrow, for all who are in despair, for all who doubt,
for all who fear, God is here with us today, offering healing love
and transformation.
P: Come, child, enter into God’s presence where your name for
eternity is Beloved.*HYMN “We’ve a Story to Tell to the Nations” #569 *PRAYER Gracious God, mend our brokenness and our sadness. Give us spirits of joy and enthusiasm for service to you by serving others. Lift us and place us on your pathways of peace and hope, that with our lives we will witness to your redeeming love. Amen. GIFT OF MUSIC 2+2 Quartet CALL TO PRAYER PASTORAL PRAYER / OUR LORD’S PRAYER CHILDREN’S MOMENT Pastor Deb (Children age 4 thru 4th grade are dismissed to Junior Church with Sparky Vollnogle) OFFERING OUR GIFTS TO GOD To God Be the Glory -arr. Broughton (Please take time to sign the ritual of friendship pad located at the end of the pew) *DOXOLOGY / PRAYER OF DEDICATION *GOSPEL READING Luke 10:1-9, 16-20 MESSAGE “Go” Pastor Deb HOLY COMMUNION HYMN OF PREPARATION “Become to Us the Living Bread” #630 PRAYER OF CONFESSION Merciful God, in all our celebration, fireworks, parades, and gatherings we have proclaimed liberty and freedom. Yet our hearts are chained by anger, doubt, terror, and fear. We live in those chains, often not knowing that there is really any other way. We have become accustomed to our imprisonment. Forgive us when we turn away from your freeing love. Help us to place our trust in you and serve you by working with others for peace and hope for all. These things we ask in Jesus’ Name. Amen. WORDS OF ASSURANCE Reach out! Stretch your Spirits! God’s love has freed you from oppression and fear! You have been made whole in God’s eternal love. Amen. DISTRIBUTION OF THE ELEMENTS *HYMN “Here I Am, Lord” #593 *LIGHT OF CHRIST GOES INTO THE WORLD *BLESSING Lord, as we go from this place, surround us with your peace and love, that we may take healing and hope to others in your holy name. Amen.

ALTAR FLOWERS
Because Columbiana Floral closed last month, Charlotte no longer
has access to flowers for making arrangements. We will now be
ordering our arrangements through Sitler’s Florist
855 E. Park Avenue, Columbiana (330-482-4353)
Sitler’s will charge a delivery fee, but to avoid that
Bill & Ruthie have volunteered to pick up
our altar flower orders and bring them early on Sunday mornings.
Thank you for your patience during this time of transition.July
