Home Worship
For right now, staying home is the way we love our neighbor. Think about it: you may be staying home for your own health, but you also can not be a carrier to others you might come in contact with. But being isolated from human contact for days on end gets very lonely. We don’t know how long we will be sequestered in our homes, so please be in prayer for those who live alone. Remember also those who do not have a home or safe haven. Take this time to grow in your trust of God and not be anxious.
In John 14:27 Jesus said, “Peace I leave with you; My peace I give unto you, not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”
This is not live-streamed worship, happening in real time as you are at home, but it is a way we can bind together through worship while we must stay apart physically. Everything posted here in Home Worship has been compiled by Highland Park laity and staff, with the hope of helping you feel closer to one another, and helping you draw closer to Almighty God, who is always with us.
May God bless you and keep you.
Now, let’s worship together.

Call to Worship
In mystery and grandeur
we see the face of God
in earthiness and the ordinary
we know the love of Christ
In heights and depths
and life and death:
the spirit of God
is moving among us
In mystery and grandeur

Closing Hymn- Blessed Be Your Name - by Matt Redmon
A Closing Thought -
“I didn't need to understand the hypostatic unity of the Trinity; I just needed to turn my life over to whoever came up with redwood trees.” ― Anne Lamott, Plan B: Further Thoughts on Faith

Benediction
Go out and in all of life, worship the Lord.
Entrust yourself to the winds of God’s Spirit;
put to death selfish desires,
and offer yourself for God’s mission in the world.
And may the Father give strength to you and to all;
May Christ Jesus bless you with peace;
And may the Holy Spirit, whispering within your hearts,
........give you assurance that you are God’s children.
We go in peace to love and serve the Lord,
In the name of Christ. Amen.
Go out and in all of life, worship the Lord.
Entrust yourself to the winds of God’s Spirit;
put to death selfish desires,
and offer yourself for God’s mission in the world.
And may the Father give strength to you and to all;
May Christ Jesus bless you with peace;
And may the Holy Spirit, whispering within your hearts,
........give you assurance that you are God’s children.
We go in peace to love and serve the Lord,
In the name of Christ. Amen.
