GEORGE'S WINDSOR 77.77D �Prayer (unison) Almighty and gracious Father-Mother, we give you thanks for the fruits of the earth in their season and for the labors of those who harvest them. Make us faithful stewards of your great bounty, for the provision of our necessities and the relief of all who are in need, to the glory of your Name; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen. Deuteronomy 8:6-11 Reader: Cheryl Clement Therefore keep the commandments of the Lord your God, by walking in God's ways and by trusting God. For the Lord your God is bringing you into a good land, a land with flowing streams, with springs and underground waters welling up in valleys and hills, a land of wheat and barley, of vines and fig trees and pomegranates, a land of olive trees and honey, a land where you may eat bread without scarcity, where you will lack nothing, a land whose stones are iron and from whose hills you may mine copper. You shall eat your fill and bless the Lord your God for the good land given you. Take care that you do not forget the Lord your God, by failing to keep the commandments, the ordinances, and the statutes, which I am commanding you today. Reader: Word of God. Word of Life. Congregation: Thanks be to God. Hymn: "God, We Rejoice" (tune of "God of Our Fathers") God, we rejoice, for You have done great things; All of creation with Your goodness rings. Farm lands and vines and trees all give full yield; Harvests of hope. Your mercy has revealed. Sunshine and rain have blessed our fertile land; Life overflows with bounty from Your hand. 'Round us is plenty, meant for us to share With all God's people, here and everywhere. �Psalm 118 Selected Verses Reader: Jacqueline Webb Martin Rinkart; tr. Catherine Winkworth Johann Criiger; harm. Felix Mendelssohn RESPONSE tr Now thank we all our I God, with heart and hands and voic - es. I O give thanks to the Lord who is good, whose steadfast love endures forever! Let Israel say: "God's steadfast love endures forever." Let the house of Aaron say, "God's steadfast love endures forever." Let those who trust the Lord say, "God's steadfast love endures forever." (sing) The Lord is my strength and my might: the Lord has become my salvation. There are glad songs of victory in the tents of the righteous. "The right hand of the Lord does valiantly; the right hand of the Lord is exalted; I shall not die, but I shall live and recount the deeds of the Lord. (sing) I thank you that you have answered me and have become my salvation. The stone that the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone. This is the Lord's doing; it is marvelous in our eyes. This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it. (Gloria Patri) �I * Gloria Patri Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Ghost. As it was in the beginning, it is now and ever shall be world without end. Amen. Amen. *The Gosepl of Matthew 6:25-33 Reader: Pastor Bill Downing Jesus said, " I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air; they neither sow nor reap nor gather into bams, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? And can any of you by worrying add a single hour to your span of life? And why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they neither toil nor spin, yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not clothed like one of these. But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will God not much more clothe you— you of little faith? Therefore do not worry, saying, 'What will we eat?' or 'What will we drink?' or 'What will we wear?' For it is the Gentiles who strive for all these things; and indeed your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But strive first for the kingdom of God and God's righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well." Reader: This is the good news. Congregation: Praise to you, Jesus Christ.
