Sunday 26th November 2017
During the Congregational Meeting following the service, 22 ideas
for revival of Worship in the 21st Century will be debated.
The Joint Nominating Committee’s recommendation for filling the vacant placement at All Saints Floreat is also on the agenda.
Please stay for these important discussions.
The word worship comes from the Old English word: ‘woerthship’, a ceremony or drama which expresses what we
deem to be of great worth to us. Our Service is also called the Liturgy, a word from the Greek
meaning ‘works of the people’ because it describes the way we recharge our spiritual batteries so that we can play our part in
the creativity that permeates God’s universe.
Worship with the Forests
The Liturgy today is inspired by the Church’s Seasons of Creation – Forests. Forests enabled humans as the highest
form of life to evolve and are an expression of God’s grace. Forests continue to be vital
for sustaining human existence. Their fragile future is entrusted to our care.
Today will feature music from an ancient Scottish bag pipe made from a South American ebony. We celebrate this
instrument’s restoration by Lewis Weeda who will be playing during the service.
Prayers of the People: The Congregation will be invited to share their Joys and Concerns from where they are seated using one of our radio microphones. To symbolise the ripple effect of each prayer, as each Joy or Concern is shared, our Elder, Els Mengler, will place a pebble
into the bowl of water on the Communion Table. Individuals are also welcome to come forward to make a silent prayer
and place a pebble in the water. Worship is also about celebrating our togetherness, leading us to the challenge of creating new forms of
liturgy that attracts the under 40s generation. Richard Smith
THE CRÈCHE (rear of the Sanctuary) is available for parents of small children to make
use of at any time during church services.
HEARING IMPAIRED can use the audio loop on the first 6 middle pews (both left and right) facing
the Communion Table; a T-switch is required on your hearing aid. NOTE! - Each Sunday the Family Service is recorded on CD. Please
