PRELUDE                                 Sonata No. 8 with  “Abide With Me”          Beethovan/Dean

CONFESSION AND FORGIVNESS

Blessed be the holy Trinity, + one God,

who forgives all our sin, whose mercy endures forever.

Amen.

Let us confess our sin and come to God for healing.

Silence is kept for reflection.

Gracious God,

have mercy on us.

We confess that we have honored you with our lips,

but have harmed our neighbors with our tongues.

The cravings at war within us

cause conflicts and disputes.

In our desire to be first

we make distinctions among ourselves.

We place the needs of the poor and the suffering last.

In your great mercy, forgive us our sins.

Draw near to us with grace in time of need,

and turn us to follow in the way of Jesus Christ,

our Savior and Lord.

Amen.

God promises to forgive our iniquity

and to remember our sin no more.

By grace you have been saved.

In the name of  Jesus Christ,

the source of eternal healing,

your sins are forgiven.

Amen.

 

HYMN                   Jesus, Still Lead On                                       #624

GREETING

The grace of our Lord, Jesus Christ, the love of God, and communion of the Holy Spirit be with you all.

And also with you.

 HYMN OF PRAISE



PRAYER OF THE DAY, Children's message

 First Reading: Daniel 12:1-3

1“At that time Michael, the great prince, the protector of your people, shall arise. There shall be a time of anguish, such as has never occurred since nations first came into existence. But at that time your people shall be delivered, everyone who is found written in the book. 2Many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt. 3Those who are wise shall shine like the brightness of the sky, and those who lead many to righteousness, like the stars forever and ever.”

Word of the Lord. Thanks be to God  

 Psalm 16

      1Protect me, O God, for I take ref- | uge in you;
  I have said to the Lord, “You are my Lord, my good above all other.”
2All my delight is in the godly that are | in the land,
  upon those who are noble among the people.
3But those who run after | other gods shall have their troubles | multiplied.
4I will not pour out drink offerings | to such gods,
  never take their names upon my lips. 
5Lord, you are my portion | and my cup; it is you who uphold my lot.
6My boundaries enclose a | pleasant land; indeed, I have a | rich inheritance.
7I will bless the Lord who | gives me counsel;
  my heart teaches me night 
| after night.
8I have set the Lord always before me;
  because God is at my right hand, I shall 
| not be shaken. 
9My heart, therefore, is glad, and my spirit rejoices; my body also shall | rest in hope.
10For you will not abandon me | to the grave, nor let your holy one | see the pit.
11You will show me the | path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy, and in

            your right hand are pleasures  for evermore. 

 Second Reading: Hebrews 10:11-14 [15-18] 19-25

11Every priest stands day after day at his service, offering again and again the same   sacrifices that can never take away sins. 12But when Christ had offered for all time a  single sacrifice for sins, “he sat down at the right hand of God,” 13and since then has been waiting “until his enemies would be made a footstool for his feet.” 14For by a     single offering he has perfected for all time those who are sanctified. [15And the Holy Spirit also testifies to us, for after saying, 16“This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the Lord: I will put my laws in their hearts, and I will write them on their minds,” 17he also adds, “I will remember their sins and their lawless deeds no more.” 18Where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer any offering for sin.] 19Therefore, my friends, since we have confidence to enter the sanctuary by the blood of Jesus, 20by the new and living way that he opened for us through the curtain (that is, through his flesh), 21and since we have a great priest over the house of God, 22let us approach with a true heart in full assurance of faith, with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water. 23Let us hold fast to the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who has promised is faithful. 24And let us consider how to provoke one another to love and good deeds, 25not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day approaching.

Word of the Lord. Thanks be to God

GOSPEL ACCLAMATION

 


Gospel: Mark 13:1-8

The Holy Gospel according to Saint Mark the 13th chapter.  Glory to you O Lord.

1As [Jesus] came out of the temple, one of his disciples said to him, “Look, Teacher, what large stones and what large buildings!” 2Then Jesus asked him, “Do you see these great buildings? Not one stone will be left here upon another; all will be thrown down.”
3When he was sitting on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter, James, John, and Andrew asked him privately, 4“Tell us, when will this be, and what will be the sign that all these things are about to be accomplished?” 5Then Jesus began to say to them, “Beware that no one leads you astray. 6Many will come in my name and say, ‘I am he!’ and they will lead many astray. 7When you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be alarmed; this must take place, but the end is still to come. 8For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; there will be earthquakes in various places; there will be famines. This is but the beginning of the birth pangs.”

The Gospel of the Lord. Praise to you, O Christ.

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

For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever and ever. Amen
