DURING OUR ZOOM SERVICES:
During the gathering prior to the start of the worship service, please be invited to greet each other freely, UNMUTED.
Once the service starts and the prelude begins, we ask everyone to please kindly MUTE yourself, as we are not able to do this remotely.
During the service itself, if you are a Worship Leader, or if you speak during Children’s Time or Joys and Concerns, please UNMUTE to speak and MUTE afterwards.
We ask that everyone help in this way so that all may enjoy an undisrupted service.
After the Postlude, all are welcome to UNMUTE and speak with each other again.
Thank you and we look forward to seeing everyone!

Call to Worship
One: Lord, you have been our dwelling place throughout all generations. All: In you, we come home— to rest, to wrestle, to love, to be loved.We dwell in you.
One: Before the mountains were born, before you delivered the whole world, from everlasting past to everlasting future, you are God. All: In you, we are home — we dream, we flourish, we fade, we rejoice.We dwell in you.
*Opening Hymn “Holy, Holy, Holy! Lord God Almighty” UMH # 64 (vs 1 2 & 4)
Opening Prayer Shelia Muscott
Loving God, you not only welcome us, you receive us into yourself. Give us courage to be so open to others, to let them become so dear to us, that we might share not only your gospel but also our lives, through Christ, who makes room for us all. Amen.
Hymn of Response “Live in Charity (Ubi Caritas)” FWS # 2179 (English & Latin)
Prayer of Confession Lord, we confess: we do not live as those worthyto be entrusted with the good news of your grace;we relate to others callously as though we do not trust that gospel ourselves; we seek to please and manipulate,using flattery to gain praise and distinction;we use condescension as a mask to cover insecurity or a need for power. Our motives are mixed, impure. Lord, reassure and cleanse us, in Jesus’ name. Amen.
Silent Confession
Declaration of Forgiveness
One: Sisters and Brothers in Christ, believe again the gospel, that in Christ we are accepted as we are. Believe that we are forgiven and loved. Believe that we are the church, the body of Christ, called to love one another as gentle children of God. All:Thanks be to God!Allelujah!Amen.

Verses of the Week (Matthew 22:37-40)
Jesus said to him, "'You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart,
and with all your soul, and with all your mind.'
This is the greatest and first commandment.
And a second is like it: 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.'
On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets."

Bible Verses of the Week
(Matthew 22:37-40)
예수님은 이렇게 대답하셨다. “‘네 마음을 다하고 정성을 다하고 뜻을 다하여 주 너의 하나님을 사랑하라.’ “이것이 제일 중요한 계명이다. 그 다음은 ‘네 이웃을 네 몸과 같이 사랑하라’ 는 계명이다. 모든 율법과 예언자들의 가르침은 이 두 계명에서 나온 것이다.”
Dear members and friends of the Fairfield Grace church family,
We hope and pray that this note finds you and your family well. We are pleased to see so many of you attending our Sunday services on Zoom. And we know that many of you are happy that we will be having services in our church building once again. We also thank you for continuing your giving to the church either on line or by mailing in your checks on a regular basis.
If you attend the service at the church, please place your offering in our offering box as you go in. For safety from spreading the virus, we are not allowed to pass collection plates as usual.
Also, if your giving has gotten behind over the summer. We need you to catch up if possible. We were fortunate to get government payroll protection money. But that is used up. A new government stimulus package is tied up in congress. And even if they pass one, we do not know if churches will be included.
Take care, stay well, wear masks when in public, wash your hands, etc. You know the routines, and that is why infection rates in Fairfield remain very low. We hope to see you soon.
