Leader:Please stand for our opening hymn

Hosea Song" (Come back To Me)

Come back to me with all your heart,


don't let fear keep us apart.
Trees do bend, tho' straight and tall;
so must we to others' call.

Long have I waited for your coming


home to me and living deeply our new life.

The wilderness will lead you


to your heart where I will speak.
Integrity and justice
with tenderness you shall know.

Long have I waited for your coming


home to me and living deeply our new life.

You shall sleep secure with peace;


faithfulness will be your joy.

Long have I waited for your coming


home to me and living deeply our new life.

Leader: All together

All:(+) In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. AMEN.

In this moment of sorrow


The Lord is in our midst
and comforts us with his word:
Blessed are the sorrowful; they shall be consoled.

Praised be God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,


the Father of mercies and the God of all consolation!
He comforts us in our afflictions
and thus enables us to comfort those who are in trouble,
with the same consolation we have received from him.
