Saturday Service

Saturdays Starting at 5:00pm

For our 5 p.m. Saturday evening worship we use the Evening Prayer service with the addition of the confession and absolution, and Lord’s Supper liturgy from Divine service five setting from the “Lutheran Service Book” hymnal. The majority of this service is chanted. It focuses on Christ as the light of the world as we enter into the evening hours. It is a deep breath at the end of our busy fast-paced day/week. During this service we do receive Holy Communion and sing two hymns. Though the actual length may vary a little the service usually runs 45 minutes to an hour.

Sunday Service

8:15am & 10:30 am

Liturgy for our Sunday worship services is usually drawn from two divine services in the Lutheran Service book hymnal. If you are familiar with the hymn book, the services appear on the pages 184 and 151.  These services alternate between singing and spoken responses. There are three scripture readings in the service and the sermon generally is based on one of those readings or the appointed Psalm for the Sunday. Hymns during the distribution of the Lord’s Supper are drawn from the “Lutheran Service Book” hymnal and a supplemental hymn book “Sing Joyfully!” This service usually lasts between an hour and an hour and fifteen minutes. Communion is offered every Sunday at 8:15 and on the 1st and 3rd Sundays at 10:30am.

Baptism

We baptize infants, children or adults  of any age. Baptisms are by arrangement with the Pastor and usually are preceded by a discussion explaining what baptism is. However, spontaneous requests will be honored. We do not re-baptize, but if you would like to be put in memory of your baptism we do have a ceremony for that purpose. If you let us know your baptismal birthday we will acknowledge it in church by singing a verse from “Baptized into Your Name Most Holy” on the Sunday closest to your date, and we will also remember it on the Sunday when we focus on Christ’s baptism.

Communion

Communion is offered every Saturday evening service, every 8:15 a.m. Sunday service, and on the first, third and fifth Sundays of the 10:30 a.m. service.

Age and Attire

The members in attendance of our service run from newborns to more mature disciples in their eighties and nineties.

Attire ranges from jeans and a nice shirt to suit and tie for Adult Men.

For Adult women, attire normally ranges from jeans and a nice shirt to a dress or skirt.

Children dress includes jeans, t-shirt, and sneakers to a suit for the young men or dress for the young ladies.

WEEKLY SCRIPTURE READINGS

For April 4th

The Resurrection of Our Lord (Easter Day)


Old Testament: Isaiah 25:6–9

6On this mountain the Lord of hosts will make for all peoples
    a feast of rich food, a feast of well-aged wine,
    of rich food full of marrow, of aged wine well refined.
7And he will swallow up on this mountain
    the covering that is cast over all peoples,
    the veil that is spread over all nations.
    8He will swallow up death forever;
and the Lord God will wipe away tears from all faces,
    and the reproach of his people he will take away from all the earth,
    for the Lord has spoken.
9It will be said on that day,
    “Behold, this is our God; we have waited for him, that he might save us.
    This is the Lord; we have waited for him;
    let us be glad and rejoice in his salvation.”

Psalm 16

1Preserve me, O God,
    for in you I take refuge.
2I say to the Lord, “You are my Lord;
    I have no good apart from you.”

3As for the saints in the land,
    they are the excellent ones,
    in whom is all my delight.

4The sorrows of those who run after another god shall multiply;
    their drink offerings of blood I will not pour out
    or take their names on my lips.

5The Lord is my chosen portion and my cup;
    you hold my lot.
6The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places;
    indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance.

7I bless the Lord who gives me counsel;
    in the night also my heart instructs me.
8I have set the Lord always before me;
    because he is at my right hand, I shall not be shaken.

9Therefore my heart is glad, and my whole being rejoices;
    my flesh also dwells secure.
10For you will not abandon my soul to Sheol,
    or let your holy one see corruption.

11You make known to me the path of life;
    in your presence there is fullness of joy;
    at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.

Epistle:  1 Corinthians 15:1–11

    1Now I would remind you, brothers, of the gospel I preached to you, which you received, in which you stand, 2and by which you are being saved, if you hold fast to the word I preached to you—unless you believed in vain.

    3For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, 4that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures, 5and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve. 6Then he appeared to more than five hundred brothers at one time, most of whom are still alive, though some have fallen asleep. 7Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles. 8Last of all, as to one untimely born, he appeared also to me. 9For I am the least of the apostles, unworthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. 10But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace toward me was not in vain. On the contrary, I worked harder than any of them, though it was not I, but the grace of God that is with me. 11Whether then it was I or they, so we preach and so you believed.


Gospel:  Mark 16:1–8

    1When the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James and Salome bought spices, so that they might go and anoint him. 2And very early on the first day of the week, when the sun had risen, they went to the tomb. 3And they were saying to one another, “Who will roll away the stone for us from the entrance of the tomb?” 4And looking up, they saw that the stone had been rolled back—it was very large. 5And entering the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, dressed in a white robe, and they were alarmed. 6And he said to them, “Do not be alarmed. You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He has risen; he is not here. See the place where they laid him. 7But go, tell his disciples and Peter that he is going before you to Galilee. There you will see him, just as he told you.” 8And they went out and fled from the tomb, for trembling and astonishment had seized them, and they said nothing to anyone, for they were afraid.
