Land Acknowledgement Naomi Hanvey invited Council Member forward

We worship on the unceded traditional territory of the Spokane, Cayuse, Umatilla, Walla Walla, Coeur d’Alene, and other tribes. We acknowledge the history of indigenous genocide, removal, and erasure that continues to this day.  We recognize the role that Christian communities played in these injustices, and we recommit ourselves to seeking more peaceful, just, and neighborly ways of sharing this land with all who call it home.

A Time of Offering Naomi Hanvey

 An Invitation to Share

Dedication Hymn: “There Is a Balm in Gilead” 553 (NCH)

There is a balm in Gilead to make the wounded whole; There is a balm in Gilead to heal the sin sick soul. 

 

If you cannot preach like Peter, if you cannot pray like Paul, you can tell the love of Jesus, who died to save us all.

 

There is a balm in Gilead to make the wounded whole; There is a balm in Gilead to heal the sin sick soul.

 

Dedication Prayer: Naomi Hanvey

Beloved God, bless our offerings of time, talent, and treasure that our little embassy of your love and justice may thrive in this time and place.  Amen

 

Listening for God

Naomi Hanvey scripture reader

 

Romans 5:1-5

Therefore, since we are justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have obtained access to this grace in which we stand, and we boast in our hope of sharing the glory of God. And not only that, but we also boast in our afflictions, knowing that affliction produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit that has been given to us

 

John 16:12-15

 “I still have many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now.13 When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own but will speak whatever he hears, and he will declare to you the things that are to come. 14 He will glorify me because he will take what is mine and declare it to you. 15 All that the Father has is mine. For this reason I said that he will take what is mine and declare it to you.

Our Light Goes Into the World Naomi Hanvey

Hymn: “God Be With You” 81 (NCH)

God be with you till we meet again; By good counsels guide, uphold you, with a shepherds care enfold you; God be with you till we meet again.

 

Refrain: Till we meet, till we meet, till we meet at Jesus’ feet; till we meet, till we meet, God be with you till we meet again.

 

God be with you till we meet again! Wings of shelter safely hide you. Daily manna still provide you; God be with you till we meet again! Refrain

 

God be with you till we meet again! When life’s perils thick confound you, Put unfailing arms around you; God be with you till we meet again! Refrain

 

God be with you till we meet again! Keep love’s banner floating o’er you, smite death’s threatening wave before you; God be with you till we meet again! Refrain

 

Benediction from Mark Cuilla
