Welcome and Announcements

Chalice Lighting

Welcoming the Stranger
A child journeys far from home, fearful and brave,
In need of safe harbor.
Guided by this chalice, may we seek to understand the causes of flight.
Like the comfort of a candle flickering in a window of darkness,
Let us welcome this child into our home
With warmth, nourishment and love
Would we not want the same for our own child,
Lost and alone in a strange land?

Offering

Time for All Ages – Marcia Westra Sing the Children Out: “As you Go”
As you go may joy surround you, as you go may you grow, know our love is
with you always, as you go, as you go.

Sharing of Joys and Sorrows

Moment of Silence – 2 Minutes

Sermon – “Beyond Welcome” by Rev. Joanna Lubkin, presented by Donna Deming

Closing Song – “We Are”

Closing Words - 692

Closing Fellowship Circle

Extinguishing the Chalice – Extinguishing the Flame by Elizabeth Selle Jones
We extinguish this flame but not the Light of Truth,
The Warmth of Community, or the fire of Commitment.
These we carry in our hearts until we are together again.

Please Check Doors Before Leaving

This is a friendly reminder to all congregants and friends who may be in our 9 Vance Road building alone or in groups. If you are the last one out, please, before leaving, check all exit doors, even ones you have not used, by physically pushing them out to ensure that the latch is engaged. Often, the doors appear to be closed but the latch has not been engaged.
