How We Worship
Sundays at 10 AM
Come and worship with us any Sunday at 10:00 am. All are welcome in this church. Each worship service at Living Lord is a service of Holy Communion. All baptized Christians are welcome to come forward to receive the Sacrament.
We are a liturgical church, meaning that our worship is traditional in its form, while allowing for adaptations based on various worship/liturgy settings. We follow the three (3) year lectionary cycle in our weekly readings.
Worship at Living Lord is comprised of the following four (4) segments, below:
GATHERING

We are called and gathered together as the body of Christ.
We confess our need for forgiveness publicly before God and one another.
We hear words of absolution and forgiveness through Jesus Christ, as proclaimed by the Presiding Minister.
On festivals and special occasions we begin worship by remembering our baptism.
We sing a Gathering Song, which is followed by the Prayer of the Day, prayed together by the entire assembly.
WORD

We hear the Word proclaimed from both the lectern and the pulpit. This typically
involves readings from the Old Testament (Hebrew bible), a Psalm, a
reading from the New Testament (letters, epistles, etc.), followed by a
reading of the appointed gospel for the week, by the Presiding Minister.
We hear the Word proclaimed from the pulpit
We sing a hymn related to the message we’ve just heard
We confess our faith in the words of one of the three (3) creeds of the church
We pray for the community, the world, and all in need
We share the peace with one another.
MEAL

The assembly now turns to the Meal (Offering and the distribution of the Sacrament Of Holy Communion).
We receive the offering, giving the gifts of God to the work of the church.
The Assisting Minister offers an Offering Prayer.
We hear the Presiding Minister offer The Great Thanksgiving Dialogue.
We then sing a “Sanctus” or Holy, Holy, Holy, praising and thanking God.
We hear the Presiding Minister offer the Words of Institution over the meal we are about to receive, followed by the Lord’s Prayer, which we pray together.
The bread is broken. We sing “Lamb of God”, and prepare for the receiving of the Sacrament.
The Assisting Minister offers a Prayer after Communion.
SENDING

The Presiding Minister offers a spoken Benediction, and we are sent out into the world to live out our baptismal call to “love and serve the Lord.”
We leave worship with a Recessional Hymn; the assembly responds “thanks be to God” as we leave the worship space.
The Sunday worship is complete, and we are sent.
