CCLI License # 1310384 Confession and Forgiveness Pastor: Blessed be the holy Trinity, one God, the God of manna, the God of miracles, the God of mercy. People: Amen Pastor: Drawn to Christ and seeking God’s abundance, let us confess our sin. Silence is kept for reflection. Pastor: God, our provider, People: help us. It is hard to believe there is enough to share. We question your ways when they differ from the ways of the world in which we live. We turn to our own understanding rather than trusting in you. We take offense at your teachings and your ways. Turn us again to you. Where else can we turn? Share with us the words of eternal life and feed us for life in the world. Amen. Pastor: Beloved people of God: in Jesus, the manna from heaven, you are fed and nourished. By Jesus, the worker of miracles, there is always more than enough. Through Jesus, the bread of life, you are shown God’s mercy: you are forgiven and loved into abundant life. People: Amen.

Fill us with such a knowledge of his presence that we may be strengthened and sustained by his risen life to serve you continually, through Jesus Christ, our Savior and Lord. Amen. Gospel John 6:51-58 (p. 868) In John’s gospel, the feeding of the five thousand leads to extended teaching in which Jesus identifies himself as the true “bread of life.” Finally, in these verses, he makes a connection that would not be understood until after his death, in light of the church’s celebration of holy communion.

CCLI License #1310384 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, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, 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, he is seated at the right hand of the Father, and he will come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen. Prayers Invitation to Communion ~ Words of Institution The Lord’s Prayer Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Save us from the time of trial and deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours, now and forever. Amen.

As you have nourished us in this meal, now strengthen us to love the world with your own life. In your name we pray. Amen. Blessing & Dismissal Pastor: The blessing of God, who provides for us, feeds us, and journeys with us, be upon you now and forever. People: Amen. Pastor: Go in peace. You are the body of Christ. People: Thanks be to God.

We know that when we give to others it is an opportunity to encounter Jesus and experience grace. Check out how your generosity is helping our neighbors in need! COMMUNITY OUTREACH: CHURCHES UNITED COMMUNITY PICNIC We are proud to announce that we set a goal of raising $1,000 to help support the Churches United Community Picnic and you met and exceeded that goal, contributing $1,540! Thank you for your generosity. FEEDING MINISTRIES: OLIVET FOOD PANTRY At only 13 years old, Olivet (soon to be) 7th grader, Sadie Brewer recognizes the importance of helping those in need. For the past four years, Sadie has used her birthday as an opportunity to give back. Rather than receiving birthday gifts from friends and family, Sadie has chosen a cause important to her and asked her friends to donate to that cause. This year Sadie chose the Olivet Food Pantry as the recipient of her birthday gifts. Thank you Sadie - we are proud of you for many reason COMMUNITY OUTREACH: BACK TO SCHOOL COLLECTION FOR GOLDEN DRIVE HOMELESS KIDS It's that time of year when we think about heading back to school. For the homeless students in our area, this can be an additional struggle trying to get the necessary items that the school season requires. Olivet has teamed up with Golden Drive Homeless Kids to help with some of the items specifically teens need as they start school. If you are able, please purchase an item or two from our Amazon charity list. Items ordered through the Amazon list can be shipped directly to Olivet. Together, we can show God's Love to those in need.
