May 4 Communion Sunday

Scripture: John 17:1-11Sermon: Arms Wide Open

Theme: We are open to others when we understand how Jesus has accepted us.As he prays for his disciples on the eve of his crucifixion, Jesus models for themthe kind of relationship we are to have with him and with one another. When we

have a relationships that seek to honor the other and trust the other, then we can

be one as Jesus prayed.Video: Bill Shaw Please use materials from the Open Hearts, Open Minds,Open Doors campaign of the United Methodist Church you can find these on-line and use a few images throughout the weeks of the month. Visually, the main

theme this week is communion although the theological theme will be unity.Please choose an image of Jesus with arms outspread on the cross to go with the

sermon title. Choose images of the empty cross the follow the sermon.Music: #378 - Amazing Grace (different tune)Prayer #2152 Change My Heart

No one is a stranger here,everyone belongs;finding our forgiveness here,we in turn forgive all wrongs.

He joins us here,he breaks the bread,the Lord who pours the cupis risen from the dead;the one we love the mostis now our gracious host:Come, take the bread;come, drink the wine;come, share the Lord.

We are now a familyof which the Lord is head;though unseen he meets us herein the breaking of the bread.

We'll gather soonwhere angels sing;we'll see the glory of our Lordand coming King;now we anticipate the feastfor which we wait:Come, take the bread;come, drink the wine;come, share the Lord.

Come,Share the Lord
