Our Liturgy

The liturgy is the order of worship we use each Sunday in worship.  It changes seasonally but will usually include:

• the ringing of Tibetan Singing Bowls

• all children bringing candles to place on our cairn

• children participating in communion

• children dancing and twirling on the labyrinth

• a message for our children

• every Sunday sharing bread (always gluten free) and juice (or water for those with allergies) to remember the centrality of the meals Jesus shared with friend and stranger during his ministry and his final meal with the disciples

• prayer stations, movement, hands on activities are often part of our worship, sometimes in the outdoor baptistry area

• sharing our joys and concerns as a community

• music by our choir, our band, soloists or small ensembles

• traditional and not-so-traditional hymns and songs, all with progressive theology and inclusive language

• prayers, litanies, scripture, other readings and sermon

• the Lord’s Prayer or sometimes what we call the Disciple’s Prayer, when our members write the Lord’s Prayer in language that is more accessible for today
