Gathering Hymn: Morning Has Broken #556
1 Morning has broken like the first morning,
blackbird has spoken like the first bird.
Praise for the singing! Praise for the morning!
Praise for them, springing fresh from the Word!
2 Sweet the rain’s new fall sunlit from heaven,
like the first dewfall on the first grass.
Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden,
sprung in completeness where God’s feet pass.
3 Mine is the sunlight! Mine is the morning
born of the one light Eden saw play!
Praise with elation, praise every morning,
God’s recreation of the new day!

First Reading: Deuteronomy 30:9-14
Response after reading: “Thanks be to God”
Psalm: 25 (Read Responsively)
To you, O Lord, I lift up my soul.
Make me to know your ways, O Lord; teach me your paths.
Lead me in your truth and teach me, for you are the God of my salvation; for you I wait all day long.
Be mindful of your mercy, O Lord, and of your steadfast love, for they have been from of old.
Do not remember the sins of my youth or my transgressions;
Good and upright is the Lord; therefore he instructs sinners in the way.
He leads the humble in what is right and teaches the humble his way.
All the paths of the Lord are steadfast love and faithfulness, for those who keep his covenant and his decrees.
Gospel Acclamation: Lord, Let My Heart Be Good Soil ELW #512
Lord, let my heart be good soil, open to the seed of your word.
Lord, let my heart be good soil, where love can grow and peace is understood.
When my heart is hard, break the stone away.
When my heart is cold, warm it with the day.
When my heart is lost, lead me on your way.
Lord let my heart, lord let my heart, lord let my heart, be good soil.
Gospel: Luke 10:25-37
Response: Glory to you, O Lord. The Gospel of the Lord. Response: Praise to you, O Christ.
Sermon:
Hymn of the Day: Jesu, Jesu, Fill us With Your Love #708
Refrain:
Jesu, Jesu, fill us with your love, show us how to serve
the neighbors we have from you. 1 Kneels at the feet of his friends, silently washes their feet,
master who acts as a slave to them. [Refrain] 2 Neighbors are wealthy and poor, varied in color and race,
neighbors are nearby and far away. [Refrain]
3 These are the ones we will serve, these are the ones we will love;
all these are neighbors to us and you. [Refrain] 4 Kneel at the feet of our friends, silently washing their feet:
this is the way we will live with you. [Refrain]
Apostle’s Creed:
I believe in God, the Father almighty,
creator of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, God’s only Son, our Lord,
Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
born of the virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried;
he descended to the dead.
On the third day, he rose again;
he ascended into heaven,
he is seated at the right hand of the Father,
and he will come to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy catholic church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and the life everlasting. Amen

Save us from the time of trial and deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours,
Now and forever,
