Liturgy of the Word
Gospel acclamation: All sing Celtic Alleluia 🎶

(Michael 🎶) Now with the strength of your Word, send us to be your disciples,
To bring all the world the Good News of your kindom. (Repeat Alleluia 🎶)
(Lee) A reading from the Good News according to Luke
Jesus came to Nazareth where he had been reared. As he always did on the Sabbath, he went to the meeting place. When he stood up to read, he was handed the scroll of the prophet Isaiah. Unrolling the scroll, Jesus found the place where it was written,
God's Spirit is on me;
God has chosen me to preach the Message of good news to the poor,
Sent me to announce pardon to prisoners and
recovery of sight to the blind,
To set the burdened and battered free,
to announce, "This is God's year to act!"
He rolled up the scroll, handed it back to the assistant, and sat down.
Every eye in the place was on him, intent. Then Jesus started in,
"You've just heard Scripture make history. It came true just now in this place.”
This is the Good News. All: Let it be so!
Gospel acclamation: All sing 🎶 Celtic Alleluia
https://youtu.be/ApCym8o6-gE
(Michael 🎶) Fed by the Bread of new life, filled with wine of compassion,
Send us out to serve the poorest in your name. (Repeat Alleluia 🎶)
(Joan M) A reading from the Good News according to Luke.
Jesus now called the Twelve and gave them authority and power to deal with all the demons and cure diseases. He commissioned them to preach the news of God's kindom and heal the sick. He said, "Don't load yourselves up with equipment. Keep it simple; you are the equipment. And no luxury inns—get a modest place and be content there until you leave. If you’re not welcomed, leave town. Don't make a scene. Shrug your shoulders and move on.”
Commissioned, they left. They traveled from town to town telling the latest news of God, The Message, and curing people everywhere they went.
This is the Good News. All: Let it be so!
Gospel acclamation 🎶: Alle, Alle, Alleluia.

Shared Homily. After homily starter: 🎶 Here I Am, God. (Michael & All):
I, the God 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?
Here I am, God. Is it I, God?
I have heard you calling in the night.
I will go, God, if you lead me.
I will hold your people in my heart.
Please share your spirit-filled reflections and re-mute when you finish.
Profession of Faith. (Jack & ALL):
We believe in God, the creator of the universe,
the fountain of life, flowing through every being.
We believe in Jesus the Christ, who reflects the face of God, the fullness of humanity. We believe in the Holy Spirit, the breath of God in the cosmos,
who calls us to loving service without counting the cost.
We believe in our global communion with all in the circle of life.
Amen to actions on behalf of justice, compassion, equality & healing for all in our world! Amen

Eucharistic Prayer. All Sing 🎶: We are holy
https://youtu.be/orKBBIj5LZA
(Den & All): As we do in this place what you did in an upstairs room, send down your Spirit Sophia on us and on these gifts of bread 🥖 and wine 🍷 that they may become for us your body, healing, forgiving, and making us whole. And that we may become for you, your body, loving and caring in the world until your kindom comes. Amen.
We remember Jesus. (Andrea & All with hand extended in blessing):
On the night before he died, Jesus sat at the Seder meal with his companions. Reminding them of what he taught, he bent down to wash their feet.
Jesus returned to his place at table, lifted the Passover bread 🥖 and spoke the blessing, then broke the bread saying: “Take and eat, this is my very self.” (Pause)
Jesus then raised the cup of blessing, spoke the grace, and offered them the wine🍷 saying: “Take and drink of the covenant made new again through my life for you and for everyone. Whenever you do this, you remember me.”
(Den & All): Remember, gracious God, your Church throughout the world. Make us open to receive all believers and to share the Good News with them. In union with all people, may we strive to create a world where suffering is diminished, and where all people can live in health and wholeness.
Thru Christ, with Christ, in Christ, in union with the Holy Spirit, all glory is yours, gracious God. (All sing 🎶) The Great Amen

Prayer of Jesus. (Andrea & All) Let us pray together as Jesus taught us:
O Holy One, who is within, around and among us,
We celebrate your many names.
Your Wisdom come,
Your will be done, unfolding from the depths within us.
Each day you give us all we need.
You remind us of our limits, and we let go.
You support us in our power, and we act with courage,
For you are the dwelling place within us,
the empowerment around us,
and the celebration among us, now and forever. Amen
(Den & All): This is Jesus who liberates, heals and transforms us and our world.
All are invited to partake of this banquet of love. We are the Body of Christ.

Prayer of Thanksgiving (Didache, Instruction, 100CE)
(Michael & All): For the thanksgiving, give thanks this way: First, for the cup🍷: We thank you, Abba God, for the sacred vine of David your son, whose meaning you made clear to us through our brother Jesus, yours ever be the splendor.
(Andrea & All): And for the bread 🥖 fragment: We thank you, Amma God, for the life and wisdom whose meaning you made clear to us through Jesus, yours ever be the splendor.
(Den & All): As this fragment was scattered high on hills, but by gathering was united into one, so let your people from earth’s ends be united into your single reign, for yours are splendor and might through Jesus Christ down the ages.
