November 15 Worship Bulletin 24th Sunday after Pentecost // Local Mission Partners // November 15, 2020 // Livestream at 9:30 am INTRODUCTION As we celebrate Local Mission Partners Sunday, we see how God has called (and continues to call) some unlikely people to do God’s work with their hands. Isaiah claims to be a man of “unclean lips,” yet God prepares him to speak God’s word both to powerful rulers and to refugees living in a strange land.

The Holy Spirit calls us together as the people of God even when we are apart.

CONFESSION OF SIN All may make the sign of the cross, the sign that is marked at baptism, as the leader begins.

L Blessed be the holy Trinity, ☩ one God, in whose image we are made, who claims us and calls us beloved. Amen Silence is kept for reflection.

L Holy One, C we confess that we are not awake for you.

We are not faithful in using your gifts. We forget the least of our siblings. We do not see your beautiful image in one another. We are infected by sin that divides your beloved community. Open our hearts to your coming, open our eyes to see you in our neighbor, open our hands to serve your creation. Amen ASSURANCE OF PARDON

L Beloved, we are God’s children, and Jesus, our Beloved, opens the door to us. Through ☩ Jesus you are forgiven, by Jesus you are welcome, in Jesus you are called to rejoice! Let us live in the promises prepared for us from the foundation of the world.

C Amen GATHERING SONG For He Is Our Peace

GREETING L The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God,

and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with you all. C And also with you.

PRAYER OF THE DAY

God speaks to us in scripture reading, preaching, and song.

SUNG RESPONSE Nothing Can Trouble SP 29

READING Isaiah 6:1-8 1In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the LORD sitting on a throne, high and lofty; and the hem of his robe filled the temple. 2Seraphs were in attendance above him; each had six wings: with two they covered their faces, and with two they covered their feet, and with two they flew. 3And one called to another and said: "Holy, holy, holy is the LORD of hosts; the whole earth is full of his glory." 4The pivots on the thresholds shook at the voices of those who called, and the house filled with smoke. 5And I said: "Woe is me! I am lost, for I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips; yet my eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts!" 6Then one of the seraphs flew to me, holding a live coal that had been taken from the altar with a pair of tongs. 7The seraph touched my mouth with it and said: "Now that this has touched your lips, your guilt has departed and your sin is blotted out." 8Then I heard the voice of the LORD saying, "Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?" And I said, "Here am I; send me!"

The reading may be concluded:

L Word of God, word of life. C Thanks be to God.

All sing “Nothing Can Trouble”
