small communion service on fourth sunday. see nov 98 notes for communion liturgy.

the theme of this service is the need for space in our lives, to recover ourselves, take stock of who we are, where we are, and
what we need to be more whole, and how lent might be a season for doing this before god.

intro [STEVE C]

prayer [SOMEONE ELSE, on theme of service]

songs [JONNY/MIKE]

[lamentation/confession from printed liturgy] [SOMEONE ELSE]

short talk leading into time of meditation [STEVE C]
ANOTHER VOICE NEEDED FOR THESE TWO SHORT READINGS:

love is patient, love is kind. it does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. it is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is
not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. it always protects,
always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. love never fails.

god is patient, god is kind. god does not envy, does not boast, is not proud. god is not rude, is not self-seeking, is not easily
angered, keeps no record of wrongs. god does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. god always protects, always trusts,
always hopes, always perseveres. god never fails.

AFTER MEDITATION:
lift up your hearts [JONNY]

then the printed liturgy from:
we bless you high king of all creation. through your goodness we have this bread and wine to offer...
through the eucharist] [STEVE P]

dismissal

video: either the moving skies, or something else that gives a sense of space and peace. what's that water/waves stuff i've seen?
we could start the service with the busy streets images under the intro, and then move into the calmer/more spacious images.
