May 31,2020 Worship Podcast
Introduction Good morning, and welcome to the May 31st Podcast from Franklin Federated Church, which is located on the Common, in Franklin, Massachusetts. Our building is currently closed, and we hope see you there, when it is safe to reopen it for worship.
Franklin Federated Church is an Open and Affirming Church, affiliated with The American Baptist Church in America and the United Churches of Christ. No matter who you are, where you come from, or where you are in your life journey, you are always welcome here.
Today is Penetcost! The birthday of the Christian Church.
The following quotes are from the book: Having Our Say - The Delaney Sisters’ First 100 Years.
“What worries me is that I know Sadie’s going to get into Heaven, but I’m not sure about me.” Bessie Delaney.
Life is short, and it’s up to you to make it sweet. Sadie Delaney
Please join with me in the Call to Worship. It is from Romans 12:9-16
Marks of the True Christian.
ONE: Let love be genuine; hate what is evil, hold fast to what is good;
ALL: love one another with mutual affection; outdo one another in showing honor.
ONE: Do not lag in zeal, be ardent in spirit, serve the Lord.
ALL: rejoice in hope, be patient in suffering, persevere in prayer.
ONE: Contribute to the needs of the needs of the saints; extend
hospitality to strangers.
ALL: Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse them.
ONE: Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep.
ALL: Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly; do not claim to be wiser than you are.
The Scripture for today is from the book of ACTS Chapter 2 verses 1-21.
THE MESSAGE
Please join with me in praying the Lord’s Prayer
Our Father, who art in heaven
Hallowed be Thy Name
Thy kingdom come
Thy will be done on earth
as it is in heaven
Give us this day our daily bread
And forgive us our debts
As we forgive our debtors`
And lead us not into temptation
But deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. AMEN
