Third Sunday After Pentecost

Prelude:

Welcome and Announcements

Call to Worship © The Iona Community, from Iona Abbey worship book, (Wild Goose Publications, 2017) www.ionabooks.com

To Pharisees minding their business, and fishermen mending their nets:

“Follow me!”

To the money-handlers, the lawyers, the intellectuals, the power-brokers:

“Follow me!”

To the carers and the cleaners, the married, the single, the young and the old, country-folk and city-dwellers,

“Follow me!”

Then and now, together and apart, willing or doubting, ready or not, Jesus says:

“Follow me!”

Singing and Praying Together

Liturgy: Discipleship (37-42)

Prayers of the People

Lord’s Prayer/Pastoral Prayer

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.

As we prepare for the new year, we’re excited to update and expand our Church Directory!

Please help us by sending your current contact information, including your phone number, email address, and physical mailing address, to the church office.

Please email your contact information, even if nothing has changed.

This year, we’re also adding a special new section highlighting the professional and personal masteries and interests of our members. Whether it’s a skill, a passion, or an area of expertise, sharing these gifts can help strengthen the connections within our congregation. Participation is completely voluntary, and we’d love to include your photo as well! You may submit a favorite recent photo you already have. Thank you for helping us create a directory that celebrates the people and gifts that make our church family so special!

Please send your updates and photos to: churchcalvarymoravian@gmail.com with the subject “Directory” and your last name(s).

For the month of June our joyful noise offering will be going to the Allentown Community Music School! The Community Music School is a nonprofit that provides the inspiration and opportunity for anyone in our diverse community to achieve excellence in music education and appreciate the transformative power of music.

As reminder, there are several different ways to give your offerings here at Calvary.

1. Bring your offering to Sunday worship.
2. Mail your offering to the church office at 948 N. 21st Street, Allentown, PA 18104.
3. Use your bank’s “BILL PAY” service. A one-time or recurring payment can be made by a bank on your behalf. Banks that offer this service typically cut a check and mail it to the church at no cost to you. Contact your bank for details. The bank usually asks for an account number. Just call Calvary office beforehand and Jess will supply an account number to you or just use your envelope number.
4. Make an online payment through the Moravian Giving Portal – https://mmfa.info/giving-portal/. Go to this link, click on our church’s name and follow the instructions to make a one-time gift or a recurring monthly gift. Donations can be made by members and non-members via direct debit of a bank account or by credit card. All donation processing fees for portal gifts are now paid by the Moravian Ministries Foundation – your full donation will be received by your church.
