Prelude “Prelude and Fugue in G Major” - J.S. Bach *Call to Celebrate: (sung) “Enter Into Jerusalem”
Enter into Jerusalem, let us go to God’s house, With the healthy and the sick, With the worker and the weak; Let us go to God’s house. Enter into Jerusalem, let us go to God’s house, Come and run with the wind, With the God who reigns in peace; Let us go to God’s house. Chorus: We go celebrate, we go celebrate, We go celebrate, O Israel! Praise the name of the Lord on high, Praise his name in song! Praise the Lord, with a heav’nly song, With a heav’nly song, with a heav’nly song, Praise the Lord! Enter into Jerusalem, mek we walk-go-down there, With the young and the old, With the little and the large; Mek we walk-go-down there. Enter into Jerusalem, mek we walk-go-down there, Swaying to the breeze, With the God who reigns in peace; Mek we walk-go-down there. Chorus . Enter into Jerusalem, let us go to God’s house, With yu papa and yu mama, With yu uncle and yu aunt; Let us go to God’s house. Enter into Jerusalem, let us go to God’s house, Run and catch the breeze, With the God who reigns in peace; Let us go to God’s house. We go celebrate, we go celebrate, We go celebrate, O Israel! Praise the name of the Lord on high, Praise his name in song! Praise the Lord, with a heav’nly song, With a heav’nly song, with a heav’nly song, Praise the Lord! Opening Prayer Rev. Alan Boyd Solo “To A Maid Whose Name Was Mary” Introduction of Pamela Mordecai Rosemary Ganley ‘de book of Mary’ Part 1 Pamela Mordecai *Hymn #73 “The Virgin Mary Had a Baby Boy” Good News about Jesus: Luke 2:15-19 (unison) Eugene H. Peterson, The Message [2005] As the angel choir withdrew into heaven, the sheepherders talked it over. “Let’s get over to Bethlehem as fast as we can and see for ourselves what God has revealed to us.” They left, running, and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby lying in the manger. Seeing was believing. They told everyone they met what the angels had said about this child. All who heard the sheepherders were impressed. Mary kept all these things to herself, holding them dear, deep within herself. ‘de book of Mary’ Part 2 Pamela Mordecai Response Gentle Woman (unison) Gentle Woman, Quiet Light, Morning Star, So strong and bright. Gentle Mother, Peaceful Dove, Teach us Wisdom, Teach us Love. You were chosen by the Father, You were chosen for the Son, You were chosen from all women, And for Woman the Shining One. You were chosen from all women, And for Woman the Shining One.

Leader: May our eyes and hearts be opened to all faiths that praise and protect life. All: May our lives be committed to honouring and saving life. Leader: May we struggle all our lives for lives of us all; for all the children, All: and may we strive with all our lives against destroyers; against wars, Leader: against those whose distortions have taken, and would take again, beloved children to untimely death. All: May we oppose those hatreds with every strength and word in all our lives; as long as life shall last, Leader: and may at last our fears be brave, All: and may we praise life given; life lived, with hope. Leader: May our symbols of faith, of caring and respect and love, become one symbol, All: as our children are our mutual children, Leader: as the Holy Spirit breathes in us all, All: and may we learn not to hurt. Leader: May we lean one upon another, All: give and receive loving strength, Leader: and may we learn we are one People in our home Earth. All: Amen.

Following a service in a Russian Orthodox Church there, an elderly woman placed three rubles in the hand of an American minister from the First Presbyterian Church in York, Pennsylvania and asked him to buy a candle for his church to be lit as a symbol of Peace during each service. Peace lights have been passed on throughout the world since 1986 – one to Neepawa United Church, Manitoba.October 22, 1995. Neepawa United Church passed the Peace Light to the congregation of Lakefield United Church.
