GATHERING

PRELUDE

WELCOME AND ANNOUNCEMENTS

CONFESSION AND FORGIVENESS

P: Blessed be the holy Trinity, ☩ one God, who stretches out the heavens, who sends light to the nations, who gives breath to us all.

C: Amen.

P: Let us confess our sin in the presence of God and of one another.

**Silence for reflection and self-examination.**

P: Loving God,

C: we confess that we have turned from your way to follow our

own ways. Forgive us for the times we have spoken or acted too

quickly; we have not spoken or acted at all; we have hurt those

closest to us; we have hurt those we have yet to know; we have

thought more about ourselves than others; we have thought less

of ourselves than we ought. Turn us around, and give us a fresh

start, so that we can live as your children. Amen.

P: Even when we have done wrong, God makes us right. Even when we

have messed up, God puts us together. God’s love never runs out. God

never tires of calling us beloved children. Hear God say to you now:

Your sins are forgiven, for the sake of ☩ Jesus Christ our Savior. C: Amen.

PRAYER OF THE DAY

P: Let us pray. O God,

C: in the transfiguration of your Son you confirmed the

mysteries of the faith by the witness of Moses and Elijah, and in

the voice from the bright cloud declaring Jesus your beloved

Son, you foreshadowed our adoption as your children. Make us

heirs with Christ of your glory, and bring us to enjoy its fullness,

through Jesus Christ, our Savior and Lord, who lives and reigns

with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.

WORD

FIRST LESSON Exodus 24:12-18 12The LORD said to Moses, “Come up to me on the mountain, and wait

there; and I will give you the tablets of stone, with the law and the

commandment, which I have written for their instruction.” 13So Moses set

out with his assistant Joshua, and Moses went up into the mountain of

God. 14To the elders he had said, “Wait here for us, until we come to you

again; for Aaron and Hur are with you; whoever has a dispute may go to

them.”

15Then Moses went up on the mountain, and the cloud covered the mountain. 16The glory of the LORD settled on Mount Sinai, and the cloud

covered it for six days; on the seventh day he called to Moses out of the

cloud. 17Now the appearance of the glory of the LORD was like a

devouring fire on the top of the mountain in the sight of the people of

Israel. 18Moses entered the cloud, and went up on the mountain. Moses

was on the mountain for forty days and forty nights. Word of God, word

of life.

C: Thanks be to God.

SECOND LESSON 2 Peter 1:16-21 16For we did not follow cleverly devised myths when we made known to

you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we had been

eyewitnesses of his majesty. 17For he received honor and glory from God

Page 10: Transfiguration of Our Lord - WordPress.com · 2014-04-02 · P: 1Jesus took with him Peter and James and his brother John and led them up a high mountain, by themselves. 2And he

10

the Father when that voice was conveyed to him by the Majestic Glory,

saying, “This is my Son, my Beloved, with whom I am well pleased.” 18We

ourselves heard this voice come from heaven, while we were with him on

the holy mountain.

19So we have the prophetic message more fully confirmed. You will do well to be attentive to this as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the

day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts. 20First of all you

must understand this, that no prophecy of scripture is a matter of one’s

own interpretation, 21because no prophecy ever came by human will, but

men and women moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God. Word of God,

word of life.

C: Thanks be to God.

GOSPEL ACCLAMATION Seek Ye First the Kingdom of God WOV # 783

(verse 1) (Blue Hymnal)

GOSPEL Matthew 17:1-9

P: The holy gospel according to Matthew the seventeenth chapter.

C: Glory to you, O Lord.

P: 1Jesus took with him Peter and James and his brother John and led

them up a high mountain, by themselves. 2And he was transfigured

before them, and his face shone like the sun, and his clothes became

dazzling white. 3Suddenly there appeared to them Moses and Elijah,

talking with him. 4Then Peter said to Jesus, “Lord, it is good for us to be

here; if you wish, I will make three dwellings here, one for you, one for

Moses, and one for Elijah.” 5While he was still speaking, suddenly a

bright cloud overshadowed them, and from the cloud a voice said, “This

is my Son, the Beloved; with him I am well pleased; listen to him!” 6When

the disciples heard this, they fell to the ground and were overcome by

fear. 7But Jesus came and touched them, saying, “Get up and do not be

afraid.” 8And when they looked up, they saw no one except Jesus himself

alone.

9As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus ordered them, “Tell no one about the vision until after the Son of Man has been raised from the

dead.” This is the gospel of the Lord.

C: Praise to you, O Christ.

APOSTLES' CREED

P: With the whole church, let us confess our faith.

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.

THE PRAYERS **Time for silent prayer & meditation – See Yellow Prayer Sheet. After each petition, the people respond.** AM: Lord, in your mercy. C: Hear our prayer.

C: We thank you, O God.

P: In the night in which he was betrayed, our Lord Jesus took bread,

and gave thanks; broke it, and gave it to his disciples, saying: Take and

eat; this is my body, given for you. Do this for the remembrance of me.

Again, after supper, he took the cup, gave thanks, and gave it for all to

drink, saying: This cup is the new covenant in my blood, shed for you

and for all people for the forgiveness of sin. Do this for the remembrance

of me.

we proclaim the mystery of faith:

C: Christ has died. Christ is risen. Christ will come again.

without end.

C: Amen.

A chalice of wine is available in the center for those who wish to drink from a common cup. You may return to your pew via the center aisle. If you do not desire to receive communion, you may come forward for a blessing or remain seated.**

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED TO DELIVER MEALS Fresh Meals on

Wheels is a wonderful program that does so much. It ensures that people

don’t go hungry by providing them tasty nutritious meals, it helps keep

people in their homes, it provides a safety check to help families know

their loved ones are safe, and it provides a friendly face and social contact

for those receiving meals. There are many churches, organizations, and

individuals who volunteer their time and open up their hearts to the

clients receiving Meals on Wheels. Lori Ristow will be coordinating a

group from St. Peter Lutheran Church to deliver meals to those in need.
