SERMON
HYMN OF THE DAY (8:15 a.m.)
I Heard the Voice of Jesus Say Hymn #611
FIRST LESSON
Isaiah 40:21-31
The Judeans in exile
have a good reason to
be hopeful: the one
who will bring them to
freedom is the God
who created the world,
the God who subdues
the rulers of the earth
and gives strength to
those who are weary.
GOSPEL
Mark 1:29-39
Everywhere Jesus
goes, many people
expect him to set
them free from
oppression.
Everywhere he
goes, he heals them
and sets them free.
Disease, devils, and
death are running
for their lives. The
forces that diminish
human life are
rendered powerless
by Jesus. much
longer.
SECOND LESSON
1 Corinthians 9:16-23
God entrusted Paul
with the responsibility
of bringing the gospel
to diverse people.
Hence the focus of
Paul’s ministry is not
his own rights or privi-
leges as an apostle but
the privilege of serving
God by freely sharing
the good news of
Christ with others.

ANTHEM (10:15 a.m.) Rigaudon Andre Campra
arr. Martha Lynn Thompson
APOSTLES’ CREED
I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, God’s only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried; he descended to the dead. On the third day he rose again; he ascended into heaven, he is seated at the right hand of the father, and he will come to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting.
Amen.
PEACE
The peace of the Lord be with you always. And also with you.
After sharing the Peace, please be seated.

BLESSING OF THE BIBLES
L: God from the beginning your Word spoke light into darkness and order into
chaos. Your Word sustained the Israelite people in the desert. You spoke your Word
of repentance through the prophets calling for faithfulness. You spoke your Word of
love in the coming of your Son Jesus Christ. Jesus reveals your word of
reconciliation for your people. Through Jesus death and resurrection your word of
promise and eternal ring throughout all creation. Paul, Peter and all of the apostles
preached, wrote and acted on this Word of God for the sake of the entire world.
C: Called through our baptism to share the gospel of Jesus Christ, we bless
these Bibles, the Word of God in scripture. We pray that the Word of God
will bless our lives, homes, families and communities. May this Word dwell
in our hearts, revealing God’s love and grace for all people and spur us to
action to serve in God’s kingdom. Amen.
