Prayers of the People (assembly responds: Let us pray. Have mercy, O God.)

For the church and for all ministers of the gospel who proclaim that the word is near,

let us pray. Have mercy, O God.

For places affected by drought or storms; for livestock and fields; for ranchers and farmers;

and for all stewards of the earth, that we act with justice toward all creatures,


For lawyers and advocates; for local, regional, and national governments; and for peace

throughout the world, let us pray. Have mercy, O God.

For those who feel ashamed; for those who find it difficult to trust; for the bereaved and

sick (especially), that God provide compassionate and loving caregivers to all who suffer,


Here other intercessions may be offered.

For our ancestors who have inspired us by their lives of faith, that thankful for their

witness, we can confidently proclaim our salvation, let us pray. Have mercy, O God.

Merciful God, you hear the prayers of your people even before they are spoken. We

commend these and all our prayers to you, trusting in your abundant mercy; through Jesus

Christ, our Savior and Redeemer. Amen.

We offer a sign of Christ's peace to those around us with a simple gesture or handshake.

(Presiding Minister) The peace of Christ be with you always. And also with you.

Music During the Gathering of Gifts: “Psalm 98” by J.S. Bach (1685-1750)

Sung by Resmiranda Vocal Ensemble; Renee Fladen-Kamm, director

All hearts now be joyful, for God is our Savior.

O sing of his glory! Behold all his works in the earth and the sky. Offering Prayer (Assisting Minister)

Blessed are you, O God, for the greening earth given for all,

for the talents we are given to share,

and for this bread and wine.

Transform us to be the body of Christ,

that, feasting on this food and drink,

our lives may reflect your generosity;

through Christ our Redeemer. Amen.

Eucharistic Prayer

(Presiding Minister) May God be with you.

And also with you.

Lift up your hearts.

We lift them unto God.

Let us give thanks to our God Most High!

It is right to offer thanks and praise.

(Presiding Minister) It is indeed right, our duty and our joy,

that we should at all times and in all places

give thanks and praise to you, almighty and merciful God, through our Savior Jesus Christ;

who on this day overcame death and the grave,

and by his glorious resurrection opened to us the way of everlasting life.

And so, with all the choirs of angels,

with the church on earth and the hosts of heaven,

we praise your name and join their unending hymn:

Ho - ly, Ho - ly, Ho - ly O God of

hosts. Heav - en and earth are full of your

gl-ory. Ho - san-na, ho-san-na, ho - san - na

in the high-est. Blest is the one who comes

in the name of our God. Ho -

Holy God,

our Maker, Redeemer, and Healer,

in the harmonious world of your creation,

the plants and animals,

the seas and stars

were whole and well in your praise.

When sin had scarred the world,

you sent your Son to heal our ills

and to form us again into one.

In the night in which he was betrayed,

our Lord Jesus took bread, and gave thanks;

broke it, and gave it to his disciples, saying:

Take and eat; this is my body, given for you.

Do this for the remembrance of me.

Again, after supper, he took the cup, gave thanks,

and gave it for all to drink, saying:

This cup is the new covenant in my blood,

shed for you and for all people for the forgiveness of sin.

Do this for the remembrance of me.

Remembering, therefore,

his acts of healing,

his body given up,

and his victory over death,

we await that day when all the peoples of the earth

will come to the river to enjoy the tree of life.

Send your Spirit upon us and this meal:

as grains scattered on the hillside become one bread,

so let your Church be gathered from the ends of the earth,

that all may be fed with the Bread of life, your Son.

Through him all glory and honor is yours,

Almighty God, with the Holy Spirit,

in your holy Church, both now and forever. Amen? Amen

11

Prayer of Jesus

(Presiding Minister) As Jesus taught friends and disciples, we are bold to pray:

Our Mother, Our Father in heaven,

Hallowed by your name,

Your kingdom come,

Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us today our daily bread.

Forgive us our sins

As we forgive those who sin against us.

Save us from the time of trial and

deliver us from evil.

For the kingdom, the power and the glory are yours, now and forever. Amen.

(Presiding Minister) These are the gifts of a gracious God for you, the people of God. The

bread this morning is gluten free. The wine is alcohol free. Sit as you sing the Lamb of God

and we will invite you forward.

(The ministers commune first and then invite those forward following the singing of the Lamb of God).

12

Lamb of God

All are welcome to the Eucharist at the Chapel. We use gluten free bread and dealcoholized wine.

Music During Communion: “Prayer”v

Music by Gabriel Fauré (1845-1924); Text by Katherine K. Davis (1892-1980)

Solo by Tom Ray

Our Father in heaven, before Thee we come, lowly kneeling.

Wilt Thou open our eyes, all Thy mercy and love revealing?

If we have wandered far, along the path of night darkly going,

Lead us back with Thy hand, O bring us to the light ever glowing.

We will follow Thy voice as on the upward road: Thou dost lead us.

Where living waters flow, with everlasting bread. Wilt thou feed us?

Our Father in heaven, before Thee we come, lowly kneeling.

Open our waiting hearts, Thy mercy and Thy love revealing.

May we forgiving be, as Lord, by Thee are forgiven.

O may Thy kingdom come, and on earth Thy will be done, as in heaven.

14

Communion Hymn: “Will You Let Me Be Your Servant”vi

When all have communed, blessings and prayers are offered as bread is prepared for those who are absent.

(Presiding Minister) May the body and blood of our Savior Jesus Christ

strengthen you and keep you unto life everlasting.

Live in forgiveness. Claim your wholeness. Dwell in peace. Amen.

Post-Communion Prayer

(Assisting Minister) O God, in this holy communion

you have welcomed us into your presence,

nourished us with words of mercy,

15

and fed us at your table.

Amid the cares of this life,

strengthen us to love you with all our heart,

serve our neighbors with a willing spirit,

and honor the earth you have made;

through Christ our Redeemer. Amen.

(Presiding Minister) There is bread remaining to bring to those who were unable to come this

morning. As we sing the last hymn, come forward to receive this bread.

(Use the basket of small boxes to distribute bread).

16

Sending

Sending Hymn: “Give Thanks”vii

Give thanks with a grate-ful heart, give thanks to the Ho - ly One,

give thanks be-cause God’s gi-ven Je - sus Christ, our Sun.

Give thanks with a grate-ful heart, give thanks to the Ho - ly One,

give thanks be-cause God’s gi-ven Je - sus Christ, our Sun.

And now let the weak say, “I am strong,” let the poor say, “I am

rich,” be-cause of what our God has done for us. And

now let the weak say, “I am strong,” let the poor say, “I am

rich,” be-cause of what our God has done for us. Give thanks!

For the good of our community announcements may be offered and a blessing is proclaimed.

(Presiding Minister)

17

Live your lives in Christ, rooted and built up in him,

and abound in thanksgiving;

and the blessing of the holy Trinity, ☩ one God,

be upon you and remain with you forever. Amen.

An assisting minister sends the assembly out into the world.

(Assisting Minister) Go in peace. Christ is sending you. Thanks be to God.

Remembering Jul-11 Benedict of Nursia, Abbot of Monte Cassino, died around 540 Benedict is known as the father of Western monasticism. He was educated in Rome but was appalled by the decline of life around him. He went to live as a hermit, and a community of monks came to gather around him. In the prologue of his rule for monasteries he wrote that his intent in drawing up his regulations was "to set down nothing harsh, nothing burdensome." It is that moderate spirit that characterizes his rule and the monastic communities that are formed by it. Benedict encourages a generous spirit of hospitality, saying that visitors to Benedictine communities are to be welcomed as Christ himself. Jul-12 Nathan Söderblom, Bishop of Uppsala, died 1931 In 1930, this Swedish theologian, ecumenist, and social activist received the Nobel Prize for peace. Söderblom (ZAY-der-blom) saw the value of the ancient worship of the church catholic and encouraged the liturgical movement. He also valued the work of liberal Protestant scholars and believed social action was a first step on the path toward a united Christianity. He organized the Universal Christian Council on Life and Work, one of the organizations that in 1948 came together to form the World Council of Churches. Jul-17 Bartolomé de Las Casas, missionary to the Indies, died 1566 Bartolomé de Las Casas was a Spanish priest and a missionary in the Western Hemisphere. He first came to the West while serving in the military, and he was granted a large estate that included a number of indigenous slaves. When he was ordained in 1513, he granted freedom to his servants. This act characterized much of the rest of Las Casas's ministry. Throughout the Caribbean and Central America, he worked to stop the enslavement of

18

native people, to halt the brutal treatment of women by military forces, and to promote laws that humanized the process of colonization.

i “Joyful, Joyful, We Adore You” was inspired by the Berkshire Mountains of Massachusetts. Henry van Dyke (1852-1933) presented this hymn to Harry Augustus Garfield (1863-1942), son of President James Garfield, at breakfast one morning in 1907, when van Dyke was on a preaching visit to Williams College in Massachusetts. A Presbyterian minister and leading intellectual of his day, van Dyke later spent 23 years as a professor of English literature at Princeton. He intended his words to be sung to Beethoven’s tune, “Ode to Joy,” which was originally the final chorus in Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony (using a text written in 1785 by the German poet and historian Friedrich Schiller). Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827) wrote his last symphony between 1817 and 1823. It was first performed in Vienna in 1824. Beethoven, by then totally deaf, conducted the performance, and at its completion, one of the soloists had to turn him around so he could see the response of the enthusiastic audience. The German workers’ movement began the tradition of performing the Ninth Symphony on New Year’s Eve in 1918. Performances started at 11 pm so that the symphony’s finale would be played at the beginning of the new year. In 1972, the musical score of “Ode to Joy” (without the words) was adopted as the Anthem of Europe by the Council of Europe and subsequently by the European Communities (now the European Union) in 1985. The tune has been used in hymnals with various texts since 1846.

ii The Mass of Glory by Ken Canedo (born 1953) and Bob Hurd (born 1950) is our service music for the summer. Music © 1998, 2009, Ken Canedo and Bob Hurd. Published by Oregon Catholic Press (OCP). All rights reserved. Used with permission. Canedo and Hurd published the original version of this setting in 1998, but they prepared a revised version in 2009 to align with the third edition of the Roman Missal. Hurd offers some insight into their collaboration and musical inspirations for this setting: “When I was composing various parts of this Mass, I had two musical models in mind. One was gospel music, especially as I had experienced it in South Central Los Angeles. This gospel music style was already given in the first pieces Ken Canedo had composed and shared with me. But for some of the more lyrical parts of the Mass, I was inspired by the music of Gershwin.” Ken Canedo was born in Los

Angeles and sang in the children’s choir at his Catholic parish when the Mass was still in Latin. He played guitar with his high school folk mass group in the late 1960s, and played piano on Hurd’s 1973 debut album, O Let Him In. His own first solo album, Take Some Time, was released in 1978. Canedo received his MDiv degree from St. John’s Seminary in Camarillo, California. He is now involved in youth and music ministry at parishes in the Archdiocese of Portland, Oregon, and is a clinician for the We Remember, We Believe conference in Northern California. He also serves as co-director of the youth choir at Holy Trinity Catholic Church in Beaverton, Oregon, and as a music development specialist for OCP. Bob Hurd has served as a teacher, composer, and liturgist in various pastoral and academic settings, including Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles, the Franciscan School of Theology in Berkeley, and St. Patrick’s Seminary in Menlo Park, California. He currently teaches in the Graduate Pastoral Ministries Program of Santa Clara University. Hurd began composing music shortly after Vatican II in the 1960s, when the need arose for new music for the Catholic Church that the whole assembly could sing. He was also an early pioneer of bilingual and multilingual music. He currently lives in Claremont, California with his wife, Pia Moriarty, who has collaborated with him on much of his bilingual music.

iii “To You, O God” is a contemporary setting of Psalm 25 by Roman Catholic composer Scott Soper (born 1961), first published in 1988. A native of Maine, Soper studied music at Ithaca College in New York. He spent several years teaching in public and parochial schools in New England. Involved in church music since his teen years, he has served as director of music at parishes in Indiana, Illinois, Connecticut and Maine. A gifted instrumentalist, Soper plays piano, organ, guitar, clarinet, saxophone, flute, oboe and recorder. He has performed in concert and in the studio with Marty Haugen, David Haas, Michael Joncas, Jeanne Cotter, Bobby Fisher, and Bob Hurd. After many years in Indianapolis, Soper now lives in Portland, Oregon, where he is music development coordinator for OCP (Oregon Catholic Press).

iv “Build Us a Table” is a contemporary hymn by Ruth Duck (born 1947), published in 1996. Ruth Duck has been a professor of worship at Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary in Evanston, Illinois, since 1989. Born in Washington, D.C., Duck studied at Southwestern-at-Memphis University (now called Rhodes College), Chicago Theological Seminary, the University of Notre Dame, and Boston University, where she completed her doctorate in theology and liturgy in 1989. Before coming to Garrett, she served as pastor at UCC parishes in Illinois, Wisconsin, and Massachusetts. She currently lives in Wilmette, Illinois, with her partner Ovaldo Buntin, a retired teacher in the Chicago Public Schools. Duck was an early advocate for using inclusive language in hymns and has written many new hymn texts. Her hymns have appeared in many denominational hymnals. Lori True (born 1961) composed this tune for Duck’s text in 2007. True is currently campus minister and director of liturgy and music at St. Catherine University in St. Paul, Minnesota, and associate director of “Music Ministry Alive!” In addition to presenting workshops and concerts, she has authored articles on the topics of liturgy, music, cantoring, and liturgical preparation and planning. She formerly served as a parish music and liturgy director at various communities in New Hampshire and Minnesota, and she has been a faculty member for the annual Knockadoon Folk Liturgy Course in Knockadoon, Ireland.

v “Prayer” (French: “En prière”) was originally written by the French composer Gabriel Fauré in 1889 and published in 1890. This rendition of “En prière” is the work of American composer Katherine Kennicott (“Kay”) Davis, who is perhaps best known for her Christmas song, “The Little Drummer Boy.” Davis was born in St. Joseph, Missouri, and took her first piano lessons as a first grader. She composed her first piece of music at age 15. Davis graduated from St. Joseph High School in 1910. She majored in music at Wellesley College (BA, 1914) and taught in the music department there from 1916 to 1918. She then taught at Concord Academy from 1921 to 1923 and the Shady Hill School in Philadelphia from 1923 to 1930. Davis was a prolific composer and musicologist, writing or arranging over 600 pieces of music: operas, choruses, children’s operettas, cantatas, piano and organ pieces, as well as secular and religious songs, early American anthems, art songs and regional folk songs. Two musicians influenced her development as a composer: Thomas Whitney Surette of Concord, whose passion was to improve the quality of

music in public schools; and Nadia Boulanger, who helped her find her style with clear voice leadings, well-spaced sonorities and refinement of harmonic idiom – a style sometimes characterized as containing “a certain French overlay” and “fresh modernisms.” Her rendition of “En prière” comes from one of her many songbooks. Davis replaced the original French lyrics (Stéphan Bordese’s poetic prayer of the 12-year-old Jesus) with her own meditation on the Lord’s Prayer, while retaining a youthful, “seraphic tone” and “heartbreaking simplicity” that musicologists have often noted as characteristic of the original.

vi “Will You Let Me Be Your Servant” is a contemporary hymn by New Zealand hymnwriter Richard Gillard (born 1953). Gillard wrote verse 3 of this hymn in 1976 while on holiday in England. He carried it around in his guitar case until early 1977, when the other verses followed. Gillard also composed the tune, “The Servant Song.” The hymn is very popular in New Zealand and Britain. In 2001, the British TV program Songs of Praise featured the hymn in a Remembrance Sunday broadcast from York Minster. The tune has an unusual asymmetry. The first three phrases of each verse are two measures long (8 beats each), but the fourth phrase adds a third measure of 3 beats in the middle to stretch out the ending, making the final phrase 11 beats in all. This odd rhythmic structure is designed to leave singers feeling as if the completion of the hymn’s vision is still to come. Richard Gillard was born in England and moved to New Zealand with his family when he was 3 years old. He grew up in the Assemblies of God tradition and became a member of the charismatic Anglo-Catholic parish of St. Paul’s in Auckland. He still serves as a consultant for that parish, though he is now a member of the Brethren Willow Avenue Chapel Fellowship. He is a self-taught guitarist and has never studied music formally. Betty Pulkingham (born 1928) provided this arrangement of the tune. Born in North Carolina, she studied music at the University of North Carolina and at Eastman School of Music in New York. She later served as a church musician in Texas, England, and Scotland. Her husband, the Reverend W. Graham Pulkingham (1926-1993), was the rector at the Episcopal Church of the Redeemer in Houston, Texas, from 1963 until 1975, where he became one of the leading figures in the early days of the Charismatic movement of the 1960s. They were influential in the founding of the Community of Celebration and the worship band The Fisherfolk. They later spent time establishing chapters of the Community of Celebration in the United Kingdom and Pennsylvania.

vii “Give Thanks” is a contemporary hymn of praise by Henry Smith (born 1952), first published in 1978. At the time, Smith was struggling to find steady work, despite having just earned his college degree. His eyesight was also failing because of a degenerative condition that would eventually leave him legally blind. Even so, his song expresses a simple and profound sense of gratitude for God’s many blessings. Smith had found someone to love (his future wife Cindy), and he was grateful to be through school (which his deteriorating vision had made difficult), and to be back home in a church community he loved in Williamsburg, Virginia. Perhaps it is no surprise that Smith’s heart overflowed with gratitude when he wrote this song, which is still sung around the world today. The chord sequence of the first part of Smith’s tune is similar to the “Canon in D” by German Baroque composer Johann Pachelbel (written sometime between 1680 and 1706, although the exact date is unknown).
