2 Opening our Doors Prelude Doug Bothwell Welcome & Announcements - AGM Today! - UCW Mitten Project * Sharing a Sign of Peace Hymn "Morning Has Broken" (Voices United #409 & Screen)

3 “Let God’s promises shine on your problems.” Corrie Ten Boom Morning has broken like the first morning, blackbird has spoken like the first bird. Praise for the singing! Praise for the morning! Praise for them, springing fresh from the Word!

4 “Let God’s promises shine on your problems.” Corrie Ten Boom Sweet the rain’s new fall sunlit from heaven, like the first dew fall on the first grass. Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden, spring in completeness where God’s feet pass.

5 “Let God’s promises shine on your problems.” Corrie Ten Boom Ours is the sunlight! Ours is the morning born of the one light Eden saw play! Praise with elation, praise every morning, God’s re-creation of the new day!

6 “Let God’s promises shine on your problems.” Corrie Ten Boom * Invitation to Worship One: Proclaim a happy hallelujah, shout it out with heart and style, we're the echo of God's laughter, we're the image of God's smile. ALL:Hallelujah, all creation, hallelujah everyone! Hallelujah, all creation, hallelujah everyone!

7 “Let God’s promises shine on your problems.” Corrie Ten Boom One:We're the proof of God's good humour, we're the twinkle in God's eye, made to shine, reflect the glory given light and space to fly. ALL:Hallelujah, all creation, hallelujah everyone! Hallelujah, all creation, hallelujah everyone!

8 “Let God’s promises shine on your problems.” Corrie Ten Boom One:Sarah laughed at God's good timing, Mary sang and David danced, Jesus smiled and hugged the children, so is life for us enhanced. ALL:Hallelujah, all creation, hallelujah everyone! Hallelujah, all creation, hallelujah everyone!

9 “Let God’s promises shine on your problems.” Corrie Ten Boom One:Every day sing hallelujah! We are loved, though so absurd, human, foolish, chosen people, God still takes us at our word.! ALL:Hallelujah, all creation, hallelujah everyone! Hallelujah, all creation, hallelujah everyone! AMEN.

10 Opening our Hearts Prayers for Peace & Candle Lighting Silent Prayer & Lord's Prayer (Voices United #959) Presentation of Tithes & Offerings Offertory Doug Bothwell * Song“God of Love”Screen

11 “Let God’s promises shine on your problems.” Corrie Ten Boom God of love, hear our prayer, bless this offering we bring you. May our lives do your will, guide and guard us forever. Give us courage to stand for truth, help us care for others. God of love, hear our prayer, bless this offering we bring you. * Prayer of Dedication

12 “Let God’s promises shine on your problems.” Corrie Ten Boom * Hymn“When Hands Reach…” (More Voices #136 & Screen) When hands reach out and fingers trace the beauty of a loved one’s face, we thank you, God, that love relies on gifts of grace not seen with eyes.

13 “Let God’s promises shine on your problems.” Corrie Ten Boom When fingers spell and signs express our prayer and praise and thankfulness, we thank you, God, that hands can sing; you bless the silent songs we bring. And when broken bodies will not mend, we thank you, God, for Christ our Friend. In him, our healing can begin: he welcomes all the wounded in.

14 “Let God’s promises shine on your problems.” Corrie Ten Boom And when the ways we learn and grow are not the ways that others know, we thank you, God, that we have learned your love’s a gift, and never earned. Your Spirit gives us differing ways to serve you well and offer praise. When all are joined as one, we’ll be your able, strong community.

18 “Let God’s promises shine on your problems.” Corrie Ten Boom Come touch our minds and teach us how to reason, set free our thoughts to wonder and to dream; help us to open doors of understanding, to welcome truth and wisdom, come touch and bless our minds

20 “Let God’s promises shine on your problems.” Corrie Ten Boom Come touch us now, this people who are gathered, to break the bread and share the cup of peace; that we may love you with our heart, our soul, our mind, our strength, our all, come touch us with your grace.

28 Easter Themes: GOD’S HUMANITY: Christ suffers and dies- and now we have the cross (like the rainbow) as a reminder of how much God loves us. OTHERS’ HUMANITY: People like Peter who denied Jesus- and had their own flood-like moments- find new purpose and hope. OUR HUMANITY: Lent is a time of repentance and reflection; a time to acknowledge and accept our own human imperfection. Easter Message: Perceptions run deep, but love run’s deeper.

29 Opening our Lives * Congregational Prayer “You Embrace All Peoples” Eternal God, whose image lies in the hearts of all people, we live among peoples whose languages are different from our own, whose faiths are foreign to us, whose ways we fail to understand.

30 “Let God’s promises shine on your problems.” Corrie Ten Boom Help us to remember that you embrace all people with your love, that all religion is a response to you, that the yearnings of other hearts are much like our own, and are known to you. Help us to recognize you in words of truth, things of beauty, and actions of love about us. We pray in the name of the One who calls us to be neighbour and friend. AMEN.

31 “Let God’s promises shine on your problems.” Corrie Ten Boom * Hymn “I, the Lord of Sea & Sky” (Voices United #509 & Screen) I, the Lord of sea and sky, I have heard my people cry. All who dwell in deepest sin my hand will save. I who made the stars of night, I will make their darkness bright. Who will bear my light to them? Whom shall I send?

32 “Let God’s promises shine on your problems.” Corrie Ten Boom Here I am, Lord. Is it I Lord? I have heard you calling in the night. I will go, Lord, if you lead me. I will hold your people in my heart.

33 “Let God’s promises shine on your problems.” Corrie Ten Boom I, the Lord of snow and rain, I have borne my people’s pain, I have wept for love of them; they turn away. I will break their hearts of stone, give them hearts for love alone. I will speak my word to them. Whom shall I send?

34 “Let God’s promises shine on your problems.” Corrie Ten Boom Here I am, Lord. Is it I Lord? I have heard you calling in the night. I will go, Lord, if you lead me. I will hold your people in my heart.

35 “Let God’s promises shine on your problems.” Corrie Ten Boom I, the Lord of wind and flame, I will tend the poor and lame, I will set a feast for them; they turn away. Finest bread I will provide till their hearts be satisfied. I will give my life to them. Whom shall I send?

36 “Let God’s promises shine on your problems.” Corrie Ten Boom Here I am, Lord. Is it I Lord? I have heard you calling in the night. I will go, Lord, if you lead me. I will hold your people in my heart.

37 “Let God’s promises shine on your problems.” Corrie Ten Boom * Benediction * Song Teach me, God, to wonder, teach me God, to see, let your world of beauty capture me. Praise to you be given, love for you be lived, life be celebrated, joy you give. * PostludeDoug Bothwell
