JOIN US IN SUPPORTING AFGHAN FAMILIES SEEKING HUMANITARIAN PAROLE.

The word "liturgy" means "work of the people." Instead of providing a product for you to passively consume, we are inviting you to participate in a weekly experience. By praying and singing and reading out loud, through sitting and standing and listening, we hope to engage you in the active act of worship. We may be physically separated during this time, but by participating in the same acts of worship each week, we are connected to one another through a common experience.

How to use this liturgy

Welcoming Prayer

God – we gather in your presence.
Father – we long for more of you.

Holy Spirit – come and fill our time together.
Help us to be fully present here,
to your word, to one another,
and to the world you love.
Amen.

Worship

MET BY LOVE
There is none, none like You
Who can know my heart like You do?
For all creation sings Your song
I will join with them, declaring Your glory

We can run straight into Your arms, unafraid
‘Cause every time we meet You, we’re met by love
And we can lift our hands to Heaven, full of faith
‘Cause every time we worship, we see Your face

We see Your face m
We see Your face (oh, we see Your face)
We see Your face (oh, we see Your face)
We see Your face

There is no one like You, Lord
You, Lord

Creed

Join Anderson by standing and reciting alongside.

Scripture Reading

The text of lectionary passage for you to read aloud as you remain standing.

“At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. Five of them were foolish and five were wise. The foolish ones took their lamps but did not take any oil with them. The wise ones, however, took oil in jars along with their lamps. The bridegroom was a long time in coming, and they all became drowsy and fell asleep.
“At midnight the cry rang out: ‘Here’s the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!’
“Then all the virgins woke up and trimmed their lamps. The foolish ones said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil; our lamps are going out.’
“‘No,’ they replied, ‘there may not be enough for both us and you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy some for yourselves.’
“But while they were on their way to buy the oil, the bridegroom arrived. The virgins who were ready went in with him to the wedding banquet. And the door was shut.
“Later the others also came. ‘Lord, Lord,’ they said, ‘open the door for us!’
“But he replied, ‘Truly I tell you, I don’t know you.’
“Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour.

Matthew 25:1-13 (NIV)
