God with Us, we praise you for those we love and those we tolerate. We thank you for all of the saints who we have known and heard stories of. May their

Meditations For Your Week Sunday, November 5th —Saturday, November 11th

Sunday: “After this I looked, and there was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, robed in white, with palm branches in their hands.” Revelation 7:9. God’s way never is just for a few. God’s way is for the multitude. Pray that God will open your eyes to the fullness of God’s way.

Monday: “singing, ‘Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and might be to our God for ever and ever! Amen.’” Revelation

7: 12. Praise unites us. Where can you share praises?

Tuesday: “Then one of the elders addressed me, saying, ‘Who are these, robed in white, and where have they come from?’” Revelation 7: 13. We are sometimes surprised by all those God loves. Pray that God will open your hearts to love as God does.

Wednesday: “I said to him, ‘Sir, you are the one that knows.’ Then he said to me, ‘These are they who have come out of the great ordeal; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.” Revelation 7: 14. We, who have been through great ordeals, can depend on God to make us white. Praise God!

Thursday: “For this reason they are before the throne of God, and worship him day and night within his temple, and the one who is seated on the throne will shelter

them.” Revelation 7:15. Where do you need God’s shelter?

Friday: “They will hunger no more, and thirst no more; the sun will not strike them, nor any scorching heat.” Revelation 7:16. Give thanks to God who will use us to bring no more hunger and no more thirst. Open your heart to where you are being nudged to feed others.

Saturday: “for the Lamb at the center of the throne will be their shepherd, and he will guide them to springs of the water of life, and God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.” Revelation 7:17. Offer your grief to God. May your tears be wiped away and may you know the water of life.

Old Testament Lesson: Genesis 33: 1-11; 35: 22b-29

Page 4

Now Jacob looked up and saw Esau coming, and four hundred men with him. So he divided the children among Leah and Rachel and the two maids. He put the maids with their children in front, then Leah with her children, and Rachel and Joseph last of all. He himself went on ahead of them, bowing himself to the ground seven times, until he came near his brother.

But Esau ran to meet him, and embraced him, and fell on his neck and kissed him, and they wept. When Esau looked up and saw the women and children, he said, ‘Who are these with you?’ Jacob said, ‘The children whom God has graciously given your servant.’ Then the maids drew near, they and their children, and bowed down; Leah likewise and her children drew near and bowed down; and finally Joseph and Rachel drew near, and they bowed down.

Esau said, ‘What do you mean by all this company that I met?’ Jacob answered, ‘To find favour with my lord.’ But Esau said, ‘I have enough, my brother; keep what you have for yourself.’ Jacob said, ‘No, please; if I find favour with you, then accept my present from my hand; for truly to see your face is

like seeing the face of God—since you have received me with such favour. Please accept my gift that is brought to you, because God has dealt graciously with me, and because I have everything I want.’ So he urged him, and he took it.

While Israel lived in that land, Reuben went and lay with Bilhah his father’s concubine; and Israel heard of it.

Now the sons of Jacob were twelve. The sons of Leah: Reuben (Jacob’s firstborn), Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, and Zebulun. The sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin. The sons of Bilhah, Rachel’s maid: Dan and Naphtali. The sons of Zilpah, Leah’s maid: Gad and Asher. These were the sons of Jacob who were born to him in Paddan-aram.

Jacob came to his father Isaac at Mamre, or Kiriath-arba (that is, Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac had resided as aliens. Now the days of Isaac were one hundred and eighty years. And Isaac breathed his last; he died and was gathered to his people, old and full of days; and his sons Esau and Jacob buried him.

New Testament Lesson: Revelation 7: 9-17

After this I looked, and there was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, robed in white, with palm branches in their hands. They cried out in a loud voice, saying, ‘Salvation belongs to our God who is seated on the throne, and to the Lamb!’

And all the angels stood around the throne and around the elders and the four living creatures, and they fell on their faces before the throne and worshipped God, singing, ‘Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honour and power and might be to our God for ever and ever! Amen.’

Then one of the elders addressed me, saying, ‘Who are these, robed in white, and where have they come from?’ I said to him, ‘Sir, you are the one that knows.’ Then he said to me, ‘These are they who have come out of the great ordeal; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. For this reason they are before the throne of God, and worship him day and night within his temple, and the one who is seated on the throne will shelter them. They will hunger no more, and thirst no more; the sun will not strike them, nor any scorching heat; for the Lamb at the centre of the throne will be their shepherd, and he will guide them to springs of the water of life, and God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.’

Mel Leaman and Friends in Concert

Sunday, November 19th

6:30-8:00 p.m.

Since his retirement from the patorate and then as a professor of Religion at Lincoln University, Mel Leaman has taken to song writing. You can catch his debut concert at the West Grove United Methodist Church on November 19. The repertoire will include an eclectic collection of songs about love and faith as well as those that speak to personal and social issues confronting society. His son, Toby (of Dr. Dog fame), brother-in-law, and nine friends from our church, will

provide instrumentation and vocal harmonies. Mel was a former member of THE GARAGE youth center Advisory Board. He is asking for a $5-10 donation with the stipulation that 100% of those gifts will go to support The Garage. A CD of his first album “Time Runs Through It” will be available for purchase. (A Special Feature: All of Mel’s songs will be on a Power Point, so you won’t

miss a single word!)

All Saints Sunday November 5th

One of the oldest traditions of the church is the remembrance of those who have died during the last year on All Saints’ Day. This beloved tradition has been important in this congregation for many years. We remember beloved members of the church, special loved ones of our families, and those for whom we have performed funeral and memorial services. Our remembrance includes pictures, the tolling of the bell, and the lighting of the candles. You may be remembering a loved one this year. We would like to give thanks to God for their life in our All Saints Day service on November 5th during both services. It is our privilege to remember those who moved onto the church triumphant, even as we hold the tenderness of loss.

Mel Leaman and Friends in Concert

Sunday, November 19th

6:30-8:00 p.m.

Since his retirement from the patorate and then as a professor of Religion at Lincoln University, Mel Leaman has taken to song writing. You can catch his debut concert at the West Grove United Methodist Church on November 19. The repertoire will include an eclectic collection of songs about love and faith as well as those that speak to personal and social issues confronting society. His son, Toby (of Dr. Dog fame), brother-in-law, and nine friends from our church, will

provide instrumentation and vocal harmonies. Mel was a former member of THE GARAGE youth center Advisory Board. He is asking for a $5-10 donation with the stipulation that 100% of those gifts will go to support The Garage. A CD of his first album “Time Runs Through It” will be available for purchase. (A Special Feature: All of Mel’s songs will be on a Power Point, so you won’t

miss a single word!)

All Saints Sunday November 5th

One of the oldest traditions of the church is the remembrance of those who have died during the last year on All Saints’ Day. This beloved tradition has been important in this congregation for many years. We remember beloved members of the church, special loved ones of our families, and those for whom we have performed funeral and memorial services. Our remembrance includes pictures, the tolling of the bell, and the lighting of the candles. You may be remembering a loved one this year. We would like to give thanks to God for their life in our All Saints Day service on November 5th during both services. It is our privilege to remember those who moved onto the church triumphant, even as we hold the tenderness of loss.

Old Testament Lesson: Genesis 33: 1-11; 35: 22b-29

Page 4

Now Jacob looked up and saw Esau coming, and four hundred men with him. So he divided the children among Leah and Rachel and the two maids. He put the maids with their children in front, then Leah with her children, and Rachel and Joseph last of all. He himself went on ahead of them, bowing himself to the ground seven times, until he came near his brother.

But Esau ran to meet him, and embraced him, and fell on his neck and kissed him, and they wept. When Esau looked up and saw the women and children, he said, ‘Who are these with you?’ Jacob said, ‘The children whom God has graciously given your servant.’ Then the maids drew near, they and their children, and bowed down; Leah likewise and her children drew near and bowed down; and finally Joseph and Rachel drew near, and they bowed down.

Esau said, ‘What do you mean by all this company that I met?’ Jacob answered, ‘To find favour with my lord.’ But Esau said, ‘I have enough, my brother; keep what you have for yourself.’ Jacob said, ‘No, please; if I find favour with you, then accept my present from my hand; for truly to see your face is

like seeing the face of God—since you have received me with such favour. Please accept my gift that is brought to you, because God has dealt graciously with me, and because I have everything I want.’ So he urged him, and he took it.

While Israel lived in that land, Reuben went and lay with Bilhah his father’s concubine; and Israel heard of it.

Now the sons of Jacob were twelve. The sons of Leah: Reuben (Jacob’s firstborn), Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, and Zebulun. The sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin. The sons of Bilhah, Rachel’s maid: Dan and Naphtali. The sons of Zilpah, Leah’s maid: Gad and Asher. These were the sons of Jacob who were born to him in Paddan-aram.

Jacob came to his father Isaac at Mamre, or Kiriath-arba (that is, Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac had resided as aliens. Now the days of Isaac were one hundred and eighty years. And Isaac breathed his last; he died and was gathered to his people, old and full of days; and his sons Esau and Jacob buried him.

New Testament Lesson: Revelation 7: 9-17

After this I looked, and there was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, robed in white, with palm branches in their hands. They cried out in a loud voice, saying, ‘Salvation belongs to our God who is seated on the throne, and to the Lamb!’

And all the angels stood around the throne and around the elders and the four living creatures, and they fell on their faces before the throne and worshipped God, singing, ‘Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honour and power and might be to our God for ever and ever! Amen.’

Then one of the elders addressed me, saying, ‘Who are these, robed in white, and where have they come from?’ I said to him, ‘Sir, you are the one that knows.’ Then he said to me, ‘These are they who have come out of the great ordeal; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. For this reason they are before the throne of God, and worship him day and night within his temple, and the one who is seated on the throne will shelter them. They will hunger no more, and thirst no more; the sun will not strike them, nor any scorching heat; for the Lamb at the centre of the throne will be their shepherd, and he will guide them to springs of the water of life, and God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.’

Meditations For Your Week Sunday, November 5th —Saturday, November 11th

Sunday: “After this I looked, and there was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, robed in white, with palm branches in their hands.” Revelation 7:9. God’s way never is just for a few. God’s way is for the multitude. Pray that God will open your eyes to the fullness of God’s way.

Monday: “singing, ‘Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and might be to our God for ever and ever! Amen.’” Revelation

7: 12. Praise unites us. Where can you share praises?

Tuesday: “Then one of the elders addressed me, saying, ‘Who are these, robed in white, and where have they come from?’” Revelation 7: 13. We are sometimes surprised by all those God loves. Pray that God will open your hearts to love as God does.

Wednesday: “I said to him, ‘Sir, you are the one that knows.’ Then he said to me, ‘These are they who have come out of the great ordeal; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.” Revelation 7: 14. We, who have been through great ordeals, can depend on God to make us white. Praise God!

Thursday: “For this reason they are before the throne of God, and worship him day and night within his temple, and the one who is seated on the throne will shelter

them.” Revelation 7:15. Where do you need God’s shelter?

Friday: “They will hunger no more, and thirst no more; the sun will not strike them, nor any scorching heat.” Revelation 7:16. Give thanks to God who will use us to bring no more hunger and no more thirst. Open your heart to where you are being nudged to feed others.

Saturday: “for the Lamb at the center of the throne will be their shepherd, and he will guide them to springs of the water of life, and God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.” Revelation 7:17. Offer your grief to God. May your tears be wiped away and may you know the water of life.
