TRANSCRIPT
Welcome! A special thanks to all of you who helped welcome – by putting together flower arrangements,
singing, greeting, folding bulletins, and in so many other ways -- over 3000 people to Easter
worship last Sunday!
Today, we continue in the spirit of Easter by moving into our 2nd Mile for Mission campaign.
Over the next three weeks, you will have the opportunity to hear about how God is at work
through RPC and our mission partners. Please consider how God might be calling you to
support this important work.
On Thursday, I had the privilege of getting to know some of the 35 students that meet weekly
at Aspen Pointe. Under the direction of Dr. Clara Herrera, Director of Neighborhood Action,
and many volunteers, young people in our community are finding meaning and purpose through
God’s love. Because Clara is not usually at RPC on Sundays, it can be easy to forget that she is
hard at work during the week. She connects RPC with many families in our community that
often feel marginalized. Please join me in lifting Clara, the Aspen Pointe community, and our
Neighborhood Action Ministry up in prayer.
Joyfully,
April 23, 2017

WELCOME
PRELUDE The Old Rugged Cross arr. Mark Hayes
* CALL TO WORSHIP
Leader: Followers of Jesus, by his cross we are redeemed from the futility of sin.
All: Alleluia!
Leader: By his rising we are free from the fear of death.
All: Alleluia!
Leader: By his love we are made new in the living and enduring Word of God.
All: Alleluia!
Leader: Christ is risen!
All: Christ is risen, indeed! Thanks be to God, Alleluia!
GIVE PRAISE TO GOD’S GLORY
* HYMN 371 Lift High the Cross CRUCIFER
PRAYER OF CONFESSION
Gracious God, we so often miss your kingdom at work among us. We are self-centered and focused on
only what is right in front of us. Forgive us when we work against your plans and purposes - fostering
divisions when you have called us to a ministry of reconciliation; consumed with apathy when the
world has such deep needs; and building walls around ourselves to keep people out when your love
reaches far and wide. Help us to grow in faithfulness, we pray, so that we may see the world through
the mind of Christ and live in the world as a foretaste of your new creation.
Now, hear me, as in silence I confess to you my personal sins...
SILENT PERSONAL CONFESSION
ASSURANCE OF FORGIVENESS
* HYMN OF RESPONSE Thine Is the Glory JUDAS MACCABEUS
Thine is the glory, Risen, conquering Son; Endless is the victory
Thou o’er death hast won.
Angels in bright raiment rolled the stone away,
Kept the folded graveclothes where Thy body lay.
Thine is the glory, Risen, conquering Son; Endless is the victory
Thou o’er death hast won.
SACRAMENT OF BAPTISM (9:45) Brooks Patrick Buckley
* CONGREGATIONAL RESPONSE (9:45) Child of Blessing J. Erickson
Child of blessing, child of promise, baptized with the Spirit’s sign,
With this water God has sealed you unto love and grace divine.
Child of God your loving Parent, learn to know whose child you are.
Grow to laugh and sing and worship, trust and love God more than all!

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

Children’s Corner
Do you like new things? Have you ever made a new
friend, gotten a new toy, or moved to a new place? New
things can be very exciting! This morning our scripture passage
reminds us that anyone who believes
in Jesus is a new creation! That means that even when we do
something wrong if we ask for
forgiveness, God forgives us and it is like we are totally new. We have a completely fresh start, and that’s awesome! Say a
prayer thanking God for making us new
creations.
Today marks the first Sunday in our 2017
2nd Mile for Mission campaign.
Please locate the 2nd Mile envelopes in the pew rack to
make a gift or commitment in support of RPC’s
Mission Outreach in our community and
the world.
