A beautiful thing, too.That’s what it is!Linda Assurance of God’s LoveIn your own words, please assure those gathered that this is a place of love that is shared with all. God’s love is around us always, always there and a comfort, even in the midst of many challenges.“As a reflection of that love from within and around us, let us offer one another a sign of the peace that Jesus offered his disciples and to us each day.”While making the heart sign with the hands, we say: “May the Peace of the Risen Christ be with you [pause] and also with you.”Linda Passing of the PeaceLiturgist First ReadingExodus 16:2-15(Excerpt)They began to complain against Moses and Aaron there in the wilderness. The people of Israel said to them, “If only we had died by YHWH ’s hand in the land of Egypt, when we sat next to pots of meat and ate our bread till we were filled! But now you have brought the whole community out into this wilderness to die of hunger!” Then YHWH said to Moses, “Look, I will rain down bread from heaven for you. The people will go out and gather a day’s portion every day… Sean Musical Praise Liturgist Gospel Reading Matthew 20:1-16“The kindom of heaven is like the owner of an estate who went out at dawn to hire workers for the vineyard. After reaching an agreement with them for the usual daily wage, the owner sent them out to the vineyard. “About mid-morning, the owner came out and saw others standing around the marketplace without work, and said to them, ‘You go along to my vineyard and I will pay you whatever is fair.’ At that they left. “Around noon and again in the mid-afternoon, the owner came out and did the same. Finally, going out late in the afternoon, the owner found still others standing around and said to them, ‘Why have you been standing here idle all day?’ “‘No one has hired us,’ they replied. “ The owner said, ‘You go to my vineyard, too.’ “When evening came, the owner said to the overseer, ‘Call the workers and give them their pay, but begin with the last group and end with the first.’ When those hired late in the afternoon came up, they received a full day’s pay, and when the first group appeared they assumed they would get more. Yet they all received the same daily wage.“Thereupon they complained to the owner, ‘This last group did only an hour’s work, but you’ve put them on the same basis as those who worked a full day in the scorching heat.’“‘My friends,’ said the owner to those who voiced this complaint, ‘I do you no injustice. You agreed on the usual wage, didn’t you? Take your pay and go home. I intend to give this worker who was hired last the same pay as you. I’m free to do as I please with my money, aren’t I? Or are you envious because I am generous?’ “Thus the last will be first and the first will be last.”Linda ProvocationLiturgist Friends, you are now invited to remain seated, as we listen to Sean sing our Church Covenant, displayed on the projected slides.Sean The Church CovenantLinda A Time for Prayer In your own words or something like these: “At this time we take a moment to remember all the prayers, the joys, the concerns that you bring with you this morning.
