Let us rejoice and be glad in it! This is a morning of new beginnings. This is a time for growing into new disciples for Jesus. Come, let us prepare ourselves for worship. Amen. HYMN NO. 469 Morning Has Broken Morning has broken like the first morning, Blackbird has spoken like the first bird. Praise for the singing! Praise for the morning! Praise for them, springing fresh from the Word! Sweet the rain’s new fall sunlit from heaven, Like the first dewfall on the first grass. Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden, Sprung in completeness where God’s feet pass. Mine is the sunlight! Mine is the morning Born of the one light Eden saw play! Praise with elation, praise every morning, God’s recreation of the new day! PRAYER OF CONFESSION Holy Lord, God of life, hear our prayer: Forgive us when we follow those paths that do not lead to life, that lead instead to violence, or hate, or fear. Paths that lead to dread and death. Forgive us when we forget that you offer us life, life that is abundant and eternal, life that began at the creation of all things. Forgive us, turn us to the right path, and let your love and grace flow over us and the world. We pray in Jesus’ name and for his sake. Amen. ASSURANCE OF PARDON Believe the good news, you have been forgiven: Thanks be to God! RESPONSE OF PRAISE Gloria Patri Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost.

Stefanie Muntzel HYMN NO. 333 Seek Ye First Seek ye first the kingdom of God And His righteousness, And all these things shall be added unto you. Allelu, alleluia! Ask and it shall be given unto you, Seek and ye shall find, Knock and the door shall be opened unto you. Allelu, alleluia! WE RESPOND TO GOD’S WORD THE SACRAMENT OF THE LORD’S SUPPER THE GREAT PRAYER OF THANKSGIVING The Lord be with you. And also with you. Lift up your hearts. We lift them to the Lord. Let us give thanks to the Lord, our God. It is right to give our thanks and praise. It is truly right and our greatest joy to give you thanks and praise… Therefore we praise you, joining our voices with choirs of angels, with prophets, apostles, and saints, and with all the faithful of every time and place who forever sing to the glory of your name: Holy, holy, holy Lord, God of power and might, heaven and earth are full of your glory. Hosanna in the highest. Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest. You are holy, O God of majesty, and blessed is Jesus Christ, your Son, our Lord… With thanksgiving, we offer our very selves to you to be a living and holy sacrifice, dedicated to your service. Great is the mystery of faith: Christ has died. Dying, you destroyed our death. Christ is risen. Rising you restored our life. Christ will come again. Lord Jesus, come in glory. Gracious God, pour out your Holy Spirit upon us and upon these your gifts of bread and wine. Amen. THE 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 debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen. BREAKING OF THE BREAD COMMUNION OF THE PEOPLE PRAYER AFTER COMMUNION God of glory, we give you thanks for this feast of your goodness and grace.

  • Gloria Patri 2015 Summer Sermons #3
    Trinity 3 Gloria Patri 2015 Summer Sermons #3 Introduction: Today we consider the ubiquitous Gloria Patri. This ancient hymn of praise is one of the first things we memorize in liturgy: Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Ghost. As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen. It is said at the end of every reading of the Psalms, and at the end of any canticle which does not contain in itself a reference to the Trinity. And so, it is said at every public liturgy of the church: Morning Prayer, Evening Prayer and Holy Communion. It is truly ubiquitous in Christian worship and has been since the 4th century, in both East and West. And why? This little doxology, this little song of praise exists to accomplish two things. First, the Gloria Patri exists and is so pervasive to ensure that we never forget the challenge of knowing God who is one and yet three. There is no more difficult doctrine to grasp than the Doctrine of the Trinity. The tendency of almost all heretics throughout history has been to demote the persons of God to lesser status: i.e. the Son becomes merely a man, and the Spirit becomes an impersonal force or power immigrating from God. Within the Church, we have often dealt with our intellectual challenge of the Trinity by simply forgetting about the Holy Spirit – out of sight out of mind. The Gloria Patri exists to constantly confront us with the central truth that God is Trinity.

  • Gloria in Excelsis Deo
    Gloria in excelsis Deo For the Bach cantata of that title, see Gloria in excelsis 1 History Deo, BWV 191. "Gloria in excelsis Deo"(Latin for “Glory to God in the It is an example of the psalmi idiotici (“private psalms”, i.e. compositions by individuals in imitation of the bib- lical Psalter) that were popular in the 2nd and 3rd cen- turies. Other surviving examples of this lyric poetry are the Te Deum and the Phos Hilaron.[3] In the 4th century it became part of morning prayers, and is still recited in the Byzantine Rite Orthros service.[1] The Latin translation is traditionally attributed to Saint Hilary of Poitiers (c. 300–368), who may have learned it while in the East (359–360); as such, it is part of a loose tradition of early Latin translations of the scripture known as the Vetus Latina.[3] The Vulgate Latin transla- tion of the Bible was commissioned only in 382.[4] The Latin hymn thus uses the word excelsis to translate the Greek word ὑψίστοις (the highest) in Luke 2:14, not the word altissimis, which Saint Jerome preferred for his translation. However, this word is used near the end: tu solus Altissimus, Jesu Christe (you alone the Most High, Jesus Christ). 2 Present-day Greek text 3 Present-day Latin text Glória in excélsis Deo et in terra pax homínibus bonæ voluntátis.

More to be sought than riches, your words are my soul’s wealth; their taste is sweet like honey, imparting life and health. My strength and my redeemer, law giver and true light, my words are meditations make worthy in your sight. CALL TO CONFESSION PRAYER OF CONFESSION Rescuing God, you brought us out of the land of captivity, out of the house of slavery. Forgive us when we willingly return to slavery, making divine the machine of production, crafting idols from the excess of consumption. Forgive us when we consider ourselves so grand that we do not rest and enjoy your presence, defining ourselves by our ability rather than your love. Forgive us when we esteem ourselves so little that we dare not rest and sit with ourselves, exposed, without the cloak of productivity. Forgive us when we deem our species so central that we do not rest and halt consumption, decimating Earth, denying her Sabbath and integrity. Forgive us through Christ, who redeems us from the brokenness of slavery that we might enjoy your presence, creation, and community. Amen.

  • 3-Step Plan Article #9 Conduct of the Service by ACP" (45 Pages)
    File Name: "3-Step Plan Article #9 Conduct of the Service by ACP" (45 pages) THE CONDUCT OF THE SERVICE According to the Rubrics of The Lutheran Hymnal, The Lutheran Liturgy, The Lutheran Lectionary, and The Music for the Liturgy1 By Arthur Carl Piepkorn (1907-1973☩) Concordia Seminary Print Shop, 1965. 44 pages. Edited by Philip James Secker. Revised 3/17/19. 40 pages. Editor's Note: Arthur Carl Piepkorn's classic monograph The Conduct of the Service is primarily about the rubrics of the Service, but contains a great deal of information about what is in Piepkorn's 1962 classic monograph The Architectural Requirements of the Lutheran Cultus (which is in 3-Step Plan Article #7 The Full 3-step Plan). "Cultus" is a Latin loan word that refers to adiaphora, that is, things that are neither commanded nor forbidden by God such as architecture, altars, banners, baptismal fonts, candles, holy communion vessels and rails, hymnals, musical instruments, offering plates, pews, unleavened holy communion wafers, vestments, etc. So both monographs should be used together. The following book is now available as a computer searchable CD that can be searched for additional information on what is in those two monographs: The Sacred Scriptures and the Lutheran Confessions, edited and introduced by Philip J. Secker, Foreword by Robert Kolb, Volume 2 in The Selected Writings of Arthur Carl Piepkorn, CEC Press, 2007, 313 pages. This edition of The Conduct of the Service is Copyright©2018 Philip James Secker but may be reproduced as long as it is reproduced in its entirety.
