Reading of Gospel of John 20:1-18 Greeting Pastor Matt Franks Hymn of Centering: Up From The Grave He Arose UMH 322 Easter Creed
All: I believe in the God of Easter morning Who awakes us from our darkest dreams And leads us into the light of a new day, Who meets our pessimism with stunning hope of angelic proclamation. I believe in the God of Easter Day Who beats us to the obstacles in our lives And empties the dark tomb for us; Who appears in surprising ways when we least expect it; Walking with us, on our detours. I believe in the God of Easter evening Who breaks into our closets and prisons, Bringing peace and crushing our fear. I believe in the risen Lord who meets us with wounds on his hands and feet; Who grants us his spirit, Sending us out To bring Shalom to the world. Amen.
Epistle Reading: Colossians 3:1-4 Rev. Sarah Steidtmann
Song of Centering: He Lives UMH 310
We Pray Together
Congregational Prayer Rev. Sarah Steidtmann
All: Holy God, we are Easter people, people of hope and resurrection, but a lot of days still seem like Good Friday. We feel stuck in pain and loss, fear and anxiety, worry and doubt. Resurrection power seems to be in short supply, and we are not sure how your power impacts the difficulties and suffering we face. Renew us again, dear Friend. Come alongside us and speak words of grace and truth to us. Open our eyes to your constant presence and remind us that you are always working out your redemptive purposes in our lives and in our world. Amen.
The Pastoral Prayer Rev. Sarah Steidtmann

Benediction
Pastor: Go forth with renewed hope, Trusting in the transforming love of God.
All: God does not leave things as they are; With God, all things are made new.
Pastor: All creation responds to God’s presence; The world is alive with possibility.
All: We open ourselves to this truth; With Christ, we trust our whole lives to this power.
Pastor: Nothing is beyond the reach of God; Neither evil, nor hardship, nor death.
All: Christ is risen! He is risen indeed.
