Song10,000 Reasons
The sun comes up
it's a new day dawning
It's time to sing Your song again
Whatever may pass
and whatever lies before me
Let me be singing
when the evening comes
Bless the Lord
O my soul O my soul
Worship Your holy name
Sing like never before
O my soul
I'll worship Your holy name
You're rich in love
and You're slow to anger
Your name is great
and Your heart is kind
For all Your goodness
I will keep on singing
Ten thousand reasons
for my heart to find
And on that day
when my strength is failing
The end draws near
and my time has come
Still my soul
will sing Your praise unending
Ten thousand years
and then forevermore
Sing like never before O my soul
I'll worship Your holy name
Worship Your holy name
Worship Your holy name

SongHungry
Hungry I come to You
for I know You satisfy
I am empty but I know
Your love does not run dry
So I wait for You
So I wait for You
I'm falling on my knees
Offering all of me
Jesus You're all this
heart is living for
Broken I run to You
for Your arms are open wide
I am weary but I know
Your touch restores my life
Scripture:John 6:1-9 (NRSVUE)
Today’s reading is from the Gospel of John chapter 6:After this Jesus went to the other side of the Sea of Galilee, also called the Sea of Tiberias. A large crowd kept following him because they saw the signs that he was doing for the sick. Jesus went up the mountain and sat down there with his disciples. Now the Passover, the festival of the Jews, was near. When he looked up and saw a large crowd coming toward him, Jesus said to Philip, “Where are we to buy bread for these people to eat?” He said this to test him, for he himself knew what he was going to do. Philip answered him, “Two hundred denarii would not buy enough bread for each of them to get a little.” One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, said to him, “There is a boy here who has five barley loaves and two fish. But what are they among so many people?”
May God bless this reading and our understanding. Amen

SongThe Kingdom Is Yours
Blessed are the ones
who do not bury
All the broken pieces
of their heart
Blessed are the tears
of all the weary
Pouring like a sky
of falling stars
Blessed are the wounded
ones in mourning
Brave enough to show
the Lord their scars
Blessed are the hurts
that are not hidden
Open to the healing
touch of God
The kingdom is yours
the kingdom is yours
Hold on a little more
this is not the end
Hope is in the Lord
keep your eyes on Him
Prayers of the People & Lord’s Prayer Rev. Tina Walker-Morin
Our Father/Mother/Creator,who art in heaven hallowed be thy name. Thy kin-dom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kin-dom and the power and the glory for ever. Amen
