Worship at home

Sunday, April 5th, Palm Sunday
In this time in which we find ourselves, we are now gathering in new ways.  

We invite you to set aside a space wherever you are to participate in worship. If possible, find a candle and set a simple meal – perhaps even bread and wine or juice. While worshiping in this way is not exactly the same as being together in the sanctuary, we trust that we are the body of Christ and connected together by the love and grace of God, no matter where we are.
 
The church is more than a building! Our life as a community continues in new and creative ways. Welcome to worship this day, and may this time of worship strengthen and encourage you in the week ahead.

Sermon for the day
​Matthew 21:1-11

1 When they had come near Jerusalem and had reached Bethphage, at the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two disciples, 2 saying to them, “Go into the village ahead of you, and immediately you will find a donkey tied, and a colt with her; untie them and bring them to me. 3 If anyone says anything to you, just say this, ‘The Lord needs them.’ And he will send them immediately.” 4 This took place to fulfill what had been spoken through the prophet, saying, 5 “Tell the daughter of Zion, Look, your king is coming to you, humble, and mounted on a donkey, and on a colt, the foal of a donkey.” 6 The disciples went and did as Jesus had directed them; 7 they brought the donkey and the colt, and put their cloaks on them, and he sat on them. 8 A very large crowd spread their cloaks on the road, and others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road. 9 The crowds that went ahead of him and that followed were shouting, “Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest heaven!” 10 When he entered Jerusalem, the whole city was in turmoil, asking, “Who is this?” 11 The crowds were saying, “This is the prophet Jesus from Nazareth in Galilee.”

Apostles Creed and Prayers of the Church
Let us confess our faith using the words of the Apostles Creed.
I believe in God, the Father almighty, 
creator of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, God's only Son, our Lord.
        He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary.
        He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried.
        He descended to the dead.
        On the third day he rose again. He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of the Father.  He will come again to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of the saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.
​Lord's Prayer
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come,
                          thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
             Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses, as we
                          forgive those who trespass against us;  and lead us not into
                          temptation,  but deliver us from evil. 
             For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever and forever. 
             Amen.
