The texts for this week include John 14:15-20, John 16:12-15 and Acts 1:1-11, in which we see that God the Holy Spirit dwells in us to glorify Jesus. The worship theme will be “Promised Spirit,” and the visual theme will be the Holy Spirit as a Dove of Fire (but also, cirrus clouds, just to be a little less distracting.)

Worship Set:
John 14:15-21 “If you love me, you will keep my commandments. 16And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper, to be with you forever, 17even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, for he dwells with you and will be in you. 18“I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. 19Yet a little while and the world will see me no more, but you will see me. Because I live, you also will live. 20In that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you.
Love Divine All Loves Excelling (Hannah Gronseth’s tune)
Ezekiel 36:25-27 I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean from all your uncleannesses, and from all your idols I will cleanse you. 26And I will give you a new heart, and a new spirit I will put within you. And I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. 27And I will put my Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes and be careful to obey my rules.
