For the prelude Imre Szilas plays “Holy, Holy, Holy!  Lord, God Almighty” by Robert J. Hughes and “Grand Choeur in G,” by Théodore Salomé, for the Postlude.  The anthem is a new composition by Imre inspired by his reading of Revelation 4:6- “Sea of Glass.”

Following the Rev. Dr. Martha Campbell’s welcome and prayer, we begin with the second stanza of “Just as I Am, Without One Plea.”

Rev. Dr. Twining Campbell shares the announcements and prayer concerns then prays for the community and leads everyone in The Lord’s Prayer.

Following a brief musical interlude we share in a Responsive reading.

Rev. Dr. Martha Campbell leads us in our Prayer of Illumination then read the scripture lesson – selected verses from Lamentations 2.  Pastor Martha helps understand that a lament, as a prayer, is an expression of complaint, anger grief, despair and protest of God.  Our prayers may please God but they may also challenge God.

The service closes with the charge and benediction
