Let us See.
Risen Christ,
Let us see your works, the results of your presence on earth,
Let us see the signs and wonders that can only be a result of God’s work.
Let us believe that you are risen indeed,
Seeing and Believing Benediction
Let us go in the belief that because we belong to Christ,
We are also free from death.
Let us go, seeing and believing that Jesus will always find us.
We can never be lost from Christ.
Amen and Alleluia
Do you Remember Benediction
Do you remember?
So now what?
Do you remember the rest of the Good News too? The rest of what Jesus taught us?
What difference does it make? What difference should it make to you?
Easter Opening Prayer - John 20
Ever Present God,
You are found by those who seek you.
On that first Easter morning,
Mary came to mourn,
she rose early seeking to visit her beloved friend,
she knew exactly where to find Jesus.
But her beloved wasn’t where she expected.
Easter Confession - John 20
Holy God,
We sometimes miss the signs and wonders that point us to you
We look for you in the wrong places
We look for you in a fortress instead of on the beach
We look for you on a throne instead of on a cross
Who are we looking for?
We seek the Jesus who defies expectations.
Easter Proclamation Litany
Written for an Easter Sunrise service. Incorporates O Come, O Come Emmanuel themes to tie Advent to Easter. Could be modified to use in Christmas Tide as well.
On this radiant Easter morn,
As dawn breaks and shadows flee,
We gather in joyful expectation,
To celebrate Christ’s victory.
Alleluia!
Alleluia!
Christ is risen, He is risen indeed!
Wisdom Easter Litany - A Service of Light
This litany was written for an Easter Sunrise Service, the retelling of God’s works through Wisdom was modified from the order of worship in the United Methodist Book of Worship. My original content was added for flow. There are two versions. I modified one to use ungendered language for God and Wisdom.
