"Prayers of the People" - We want to hear your prayers!
|
Each Saturday on Facebook and Instagram, we share “The Prayers of the People”, and invite members of Muhlenberg to write and share these prayers. Prayers can be simple and spontaneous, or they can follow a fairly traditional form like we see in worship. Those prayers are called “collects”, and there is a general form for writing a “collect” that you can follow:
1.) Start with the invocation / address - indicates the person of the Trinity addressed. 2.) Acknowledgement is a description of the divine attribute that relates to the prayer. 3.) The Petition is what you’re asking for in the prayer. 4.) The Aspiration is the desired result, or the greater purpose of your petition. 5.) “Praise” or “Pleading” - offers praise to God, or offers humble hope for God’s intervention. Following this simple pattern, you can write and submit prayers to be shared online each week. Please use this link for submission online - https://forms.gle/WbuD6in5Do3raGAa8 You can also find printed forms in the Gathering Area and Connection Box at the church. Let us raise our hearts together in prayer each week, as we share the joys and concerns that our community carries! |

Christian Formation - a dedicated Christian Formation hour has been established so that our call to growth and learning does not compete with worship. From 9:45-10:45 am, join us for classes open to all ages. Adult classes will be offered with hybrid options for participants to join both in-person and via Zoom. Zoom participants can log in with the Sunday Mornings at Muhlenberg link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/84731416878
Worship will be live-streamed at 11:00 am
Many wish to remain online for their health and safety, and we affirm this choice. Digital ministry isn’t going anywhere and our Wellstream service at 11:00 am allows those at home to worship alongside our gathered community for a service of Holy Communion. When worshipping at home, you are welcome to receive Holy Communion. We invite you to have bread and wine/grape juice ready before the service. However, as we believe within the Lutheran tradition that “Holy Communion takes place in the assembly,” and specifically that “the gathered people of God celebrate the sacrament,” we ask that you only partake of the sacrament if you are worshipping with us LIVE at 11:00 am. While the services will be available on playback through our Facebook Page and YouTube Channel, we ask that you only commune with the gathered assembly at 11:00 am and not later during the week.
