Mark Your Calendar VBS is going Virtual This Year! We’ve made the
difficult decision to host a Virtual VBS this year instead
of our typical in-person VBS. Don’t worry, it will still be
awesome! Using a combination of live and pre-recorded
videos, a packet of lessons and crafts, and your own
imagination, we’ll help you have VBS at home. This
year’s theme is “Rainforest Explorer” and packet pickup
will be Sunday, July 19th. VBS will be held July 19, 22,
26, & 29. In order to have enough materials, we need
you to register now. Registration deadline is June 22.
Visit www.trinityalgona.org/vbs for more information
and to register.
In-Person Worship Resumes Today! You should have
already received a letter explaining our process for
welcoming you back! Due to social distancing, services
are limited to 50 people and will require pre-registration.
Registration for the upcoming week will be available
beginning at 9am Monday mornings and close at
11:59pm Friday night. Online Services Will Continue
(moving to 8am) for those unable to be here in person.
Adult Bible Study will be live-streamed at 9:15am. A
video explaining our re-opening procedures can be
viewed on our You Tube and Facebook pages.
The Quilter’s Silent Auction is currently on hold.
We’ll resume the auction once we can be together again.
Proceeds will provide funding for Trinity youth to attend
Camp Okoboji. Details will be posted when available.
Camp Okoboji has cancelled summer programs, but are
still renting out the Family Ministry Cabins. See
campokoboji.org for more information.
New Look for IDW Youth Gatherings! The 2020 Jr
High and Sr High Youth Gathering Teams have decided
to cancel the Des Moines gatherings due to the
uncertainty surrounding COVID-19. However, they’re
working to put together a virtual event where youth can
gather at their own church. More details will follow.
Miscellaneous & Resources Cleaning Out Closets? The quilters continue their work
at home and are in need of yarn and flat sheets. They’re
anxiously awaiting the day they can be together again!
Feeling Isolated? During this pandemic and always,
LFS is here to help! Check out their resources at
LutheranFamilyService.org/Resources
Building Healthy Families While Staying Home:
Loneliness and isolation are among the risk factors for
elderly individuals to develop depression. Prior to the
COVID-19 pandemic, elderly folks became isolated due
to the deaths of spouses and peers. With new social
distancing restrictions, it is especially difficult for our
seasoned adults to make connections with friends and
family. Pay attention to our elderly, who have weathered
the tragedies as well as the triumphs of this life for many
generations. Reach out to them. Learn from them. Care
for them. Share your faith and pray with them. You may
be their lifeline through this, and they may be yours.
“Do not cast me off in the time of old age; forsake me
not when my strength is spent.” Psalm 71:9

498 Come, Holy Ghost, Creator Blest
5 Drive far away our wily foe,
And Your abiding peace bestow;
With You as our protecting guide,
No evil can with us abide.
6 Teach us to know the Father, Son,
And You, from both, as Three in One
That we Your name may ever bless
And in our lives the truth confess.
D 7 Praise we the Father and the Son
And Holy Spirit, with them One,
And may the Son on us bestow
The gifts that from the Spirit flow! Text and tune: Public domain
Confession and Absolution LSB 151
The sign of the cross may be made by all in remembrance of their Baptism.
P In the name of the Father and of the T Son and of the Holy Spirit.
C Amen.
P If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
C But if we confess our sins, God, who is faithful and just, will forgive our sins and cleanse us from all
unrighteousness.
Silence for reflection on God’s Word and for self-examination.
P Let us then confess our sins to God our Father.
C Most merciful God, we confess that we are by nature sinful and unclean. We have sinned against You in
thought, word, and deed, by what we have done and by what we have left undone. We have not loved You
with our whole heart; we have not loved our neighbors as ourselves. We justly deserve Your present and
eternal punishment. For the sake of Your Son, Jesus Christ, have mercy on us. Forgive us, renew us, and
lead us, so that we may delight in Your will and walk in Your ways to the glory of Your holy name. Amen.
P Almighty God in His mercy has given His Son to die for you and for His sake forgives you all your sins. As a
called and ordained servant of Christ, and by His authority, I therefore forgive you all your sins in the name of
the Father and of the T Son and of the Holy Spirit.
C Amen.

Salutation and Collect of the Day
P The Lord be with you.
C And also with you.
P Let us pray.
O God, on this day You once taught the hearts of Your faithful people by sending them the light of Your Holy
Spirit. Grant us in our day by the same Spirit to have a right understanding in all things and evermore to rejoice
in His holy consolation; through Jesus Christ, Your Son, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy
Spirit, one God, now and forever.
C Amen.
Old Testament Reading Numbers 11:24–30
Moses went out and told the people the words of the LORD. And he gathered seventy men of the elders of the
people and placed them around the tent. Then the LORD came down in the cloud and spoke to him, and took some of
the Spirit that was on him and put it on the seventy elders. And as soon as the Spirit rested on them, they prophesied.
But they did not continue doing it.
Now two men remained in the camp, one named Eldad, and the other named Medad, and the Spirit rested on them.
They were among those registered, but they had not gone out to the tent, and so they prophesied in the camp. And a
young man ran and told Moses, “Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp.” And Joshua the son of Nun, the
assistant of Moses from his youth, said, “My lord Moses, stop them.” But Moses said to him, “Are you jealous for my
sake? Would that all the LORD’s people were prophets, that the LORD would put his Spirit on them!” And Moses and
the elders of Israel returned to the camp.
A This is the Word of the Lord.
C Thanks be to God.
Second Reading Acts 2:1–21
When the day of Pentecost arrived, they were all together in one place. And suddenly there came from heaven a
sound like a mighty rushing wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. And divided tongues as of fire
appeared to them and rested on each one of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in
other tongues as the Spirit gave them utterance.
Now there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews, devout men from every nation under heaven. And at this sound the
multitude came together, and they were bewildered, because each one was hearing them speak in his own language.
And they were amazed and astonished, saying, “Are not all these who are speaking Galileans? And how is it that we
hear, each of us in his own native language? Parthians and Medes and Elamites and residents of Mesopotamia, Judea
and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya belonging to Cyrene, and
visitors from Rome, both Jews and proselytes, Cretans and Arabians—we hear them telling in our own tongues the
mighty works of God.” And all were amazed and perplexed, saying to one another, “What does this mean?” But
others mocking said, “They are filled with new wine.”
But Peter, standing with the eleven, lifted up his voice and addressed them, “Men of Judea and all who dwell in
Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and give ear to my words. For these men are not drunk, as you suppose, since it is
only the third hour of the day. But this is what was uttered through the prophet Joel:
“‘And in the last days it shall be, God declares,
that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh,
and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,
and your young men shall see visions,
and your old men shall dream dreams;
even on my male servants and female servants
in those days I will pour out my Spirit, and they shall prophesy.
And I will show wonders in the heavens above
and signs on the earth below,
blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke;
the sun shall be turned to darkness
and the moon to blood,
before the day of the Lord comes, the great and magnificent day.
And it shall come to pass that everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.’”
A This is the Word of the Lord.
C Thanks be to God.
Alleluia and Verse LSB 156
C Alleluia. Lord, to whom shall we go?
You have the words of eternal life. Alleluia, alleluia.
Holy Gospel John 7:37–39
P The Holy Gospel according to St. John, the seventh chapter.
C Glory to You, O Lord.
On the last day of the feast, the great day, Jesus stood up and cried out, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to me and
drink. Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, ‘Out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.’” Now this
he said about the Spirit, whom those who believed in him were to receive, for as yet the Spirit had not been given,
because Jesus was not yet glorified.
P This is the Gospel of the Lord.
C Praise to You, O Christ.

Sermon Rivers of Living Water
Nicene Creed
C I believe in one God, the Father Almighty,
maker of heaven and earth and of all things visible and invisible.
And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God,
begotten of His Father before all worlds,
God of God, Light of Light, very God of very God, begotten, not made,
being of one substance with the Father, by whom all things were made;
who for us men and for our salvation came down from heaven
and was incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the virgin Mary and was made man;
and was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate.
He suffered and was buried.
And the third day He rose again according to the Scriptures
and ascended into heaven and sits at the right hand of the Father.
And He will come again with glory to judge both the living and the dead,
whose kingdom will have no end.
And I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son,
who with the Father and the Son together is worshiped and glorified,
who spoke by the prophets.
And I believe in one holy Christian and apostolic Church,
I acknowledge one Baptism for the remission of sins,
and I look for the resurrection of the dead
and the life T of the world to come. Amen.
Prayer of the Church
P Almighty God, You have blessed us in love with the Savior to whom the nations cry and in whom is forgiveness
of sins, life and salvation. Grant to us Your Holy Spirit, the Comforter whom You have promised, that we and all
who call upon His name shall be saved. Help us to treasure in our hearts Your mercy and to give ourselves fully
to Your service. Lord, in Your mercy,
C hear our prayer.
P Almighty God, You delivered Your Word through Moses and the prophets and fulfilled Your Word in Christ. He
was planted in death for our sins and raised for our justification, and in Him shall all the nations of the earth be
united. Give us pastors who will preach this Word faithfully and church workers who are devoted to Your
service. Lord, in Your mercy,
C hear our prayer.
P Almighty God, You have promised the thirsty will drink and from the empty will flow forth rivers of living
water. Help us to show forth in holy lives the fruits of the Spirit and to live with love toward our neighbor. Give
us a servant’s heart that doesn’t seek our own way but walks on the path of eternal life. Lord, in Your mercy,
C hear our prayer.
P Almighty God, You have promised to make one people from the many. Take from us all pride, prejudice and
hate, that we may not hinder the cause of the Gospel by our shame but give welcome to all people in the name of
Christ. Lord, in Your mercy,
C hear our prayer.
P Almighty God, You have ordered all things in heaven and on earth. Bless Donald, our president; Kim, our
governor; the Congress of the United States; and all elected and appointed civil servants, that the rule of law may
protect the weak, preserve life from conception to its natural end, and peace may reign for the benefit of all.
Lord, in Your mercy,
C hear our prayer.
P Almighty God, have mercy and spare us. Put an end to the pandemic, and restore the communities of the world
to their common life. Lord, in Your mercy,
C hear our prayer.
P Almighty God, You carry the burdens of our lives in Your hands. Deliver from illness and suffering all who cry
to You for release. Hear us on behalf of the sick, the dying and those who mourn [especially _____________].
Answer Your people, O Lord, and deliver them from their infirmities and their grief by Your grace. Lord, in
Your mercy,
C hear our prayer.
P Almighty God, hear Your people for the sake of Him who loved us even to death and who lives to call to
Himself all who will be saved. You know what we need and those things we should ask in Your name. Grant
them to us for the sake of our crucified, risen and ascended Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy
Spirit, one God, now and forever.
C Amen.
Service of the Sacrament
Preface LSB 160
P The Lord be with you.
C And also with you.
P Lift up your hearts.
C We lift them to the Lord.
P Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
C It is right to give Him thanks and praise.
The Words of Our Lord
P Our Lord Jesus Christ, on the night when He was betrayed, took bread, and when He had given thanks, He broke
it and gave it to the disciples and said: “Take, eat; this is My T body, which is given for you. This do in
remembrance of Me.”
In the same way also He took the cup after supper, and when He had given thanks, He gave it to them, saying:
“Drink of it, all of you; this cup is the new testament in My T blood, which is shed for you for the forgiveness of
sins. This do, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.”
P As often as we eat this bread and drink this cup, we proclaim the Lord’s death until He comes.
C Amen. Come, Lord Jesus.
P O Lord Jesus Christ, only Son of the Father, in giving us Your body and blood to eat and to drink, You lead us to
remember and confess Your holy cross and passion, Your blessed death, Your rest in the tomb, Your resurrection
from the dead, Your ascension into heaven, and Your coming for the final judgment. So remember us in Your
kingdom and teach us to pray:
Lord’s Prayer
C Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name,
Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven;
give us this day our daily bread;
and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us;
and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever and ever. Amen.
Agnus Dei LSB 163
C Lamb of God, You take away the sin of the world; have mercy on us.
Lamb of God, You take away the sin of the world; have mercy on us.
Lamb of God, You take away the sin of the world; grant us peace.
Celebration of the Lord's Supper
If you are a member of an LCMS congregation we invite you to join us this today for Holy Communion. Lutherans believe that the
celebration of Lord’s Supper is the eating and drinking of the body and blood of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of sin and
strengthening of faith. We also believe Holy Communion is a sign of oneness of faith, life, and worship. We ask that if you have
not communed with us before, and would like to receive Communion please visit with one of the elders on duty or one of the
Pastors so that we may be of help to you concerning your participation in this Holy Supper. Anyone is welcome to come forward
to receive a blessing. Simply indicate your desire by crossing your arms over your chest.
Distribution
Distribution of the Lord's Supper will be in the narthex and we will start with the back row and move toward the front. Please come
into the narthex by family unit (anyone who rode to church with you in your car). You will receive a blessing and then will be
dismissed to your car. Please remember to take all of your belongings with you. One hymn will be sung during the distribution.

The Lord look upon you with favor and T give you peace.
