The Heidelberg Catechism
The H.C. was composed in
the midst of controversy
over the Lord’s Supper: how
Christ is present in the
sacrament. Following
Luther some argued that
Christ’s body and blood are
really present in the
substance of the bread and
wine. Zwingli insisted the
Lord’s Supper celebrated
the memory of Christ’s
presence. Calvinists
maintained that in the
Supper we have a real and
spiritually nourishing
communion with Christ by
the power of the Holy Spirit.
Gloria Patri
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, amen.
*AFFIRMATION OF FAITH: a portion of
The Heidelberg Catechism
FIRST SCRIPTURE LESSON
Leader: Q 32
But why are you called a Christian?
All:
Because through faith I share in
Christ and thus in his anointing, so that I may confess his
name, offer myself a living sacrifice of gratitude to him,
and fight against sin and the devil with a free and good
conscience throughout this life and hereafter rule with him
in eternity over all creatures.
THE WORD IN MUSIC
“The Shepherd Psalm”
Kim Morris and Candy Hodgson
PRAYER OF CONFESSION:
Forgiving God, you promise us a life full of blessing,
but we do not always believe. You invite us to hope, but we
fall back into fear. You urge us to give freely, but we cling
to what we have. You call us to watch at all times for you,
but we grow self-absorbed. Forgive us. Increase our hope,
and keep us alert to the wonders you work every day. Hear
now our silent prayers of confession...
SILENT PRAYERS OF CONFESSION
ASSURANCE OF PARDON:
One: Hear the good news! By faith we have been
saved. Refreshed, revived and renewed empowered by the
Holy Spirit.
All:
May we live as ones forgiven and freed
through Jesus Christ. Amen.
Carter
SECOND SCRIPTURE LESSON AND MESSAGE
Luke 12: 22-34
One:
*Gloria Patri (Glory to the Father)
(Please be seated)
Psalm 33: 12-22
The WORD of the Lord
All:
Thanks be to God!
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.
