Hymn. There is a Green Hill Far Away #152
Prayer: Holy God, who has opened our ears to hear your Word and our lips to proclaim your truth:
open our eyes this day to see n the cross the revelation of your love; through Jesus the Crucified, to whom with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, be honour and praise, now and forever. Amen. (from the United Church’s worship resource, Celebrate God’s Presence)

Hymn
Message
Prayer: Jesus Christ, may your death be my life and in your dying may I learn how to live.
May your struggles be my rest, your human weakness be my courage,
Your humiliation be my honour, your passion be my delight, your sadness be my joy,
In your shame may I be exalted. In a word, may I find all my blessings in your trials. Amen.
( a prayer written by Peter Faber and printed in Taste and See, edited by Jacqueline Syrup Bergan and S. Marie Schwan.)
