Our inclusive language liturgies set the structure and theme of Sunday morning worship. All liturgies are written by the Celebration Circle Mission Group.
Feel free to use what is helpful from these liturgies. We only ask that when substantial portions are abstracted or used in a written work, please credit Seekers Church and cite the URL.
Jubilee 2013 The Image of the Invisible God
REFLECTION
Christ is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation; for in this Being all things, in heaven and on earth, were created, things visible and invisible, whether rulers or dominations or principalities or powers –all things have been created through Christ and for Christ.
Colossians 1:15-16
Recommitment 2013 Seized by the Power
REFLECTION
In the struggle to become Christ’s Body, we have only one weapon and one alone: Love…. Love is what first softened your heart and mine. Love brought us into the struggle. Love alone has the power to break hearts open so that we will all lay down our defenses and join in the cosmic movement toward a new heaven, a new earth, in a Holy City whose foundation is Love.
Gordon Cosby, Seized by the Power of a Great Affection: Meditations on the Divine Encounter, page 41
Summer 2013 How Shall We Live?
REFLECTION
I have come to believe that the true mystics … are not those who contemplate holiness in isolation, reaching godlike illumination in serene silence, but those who manage to find God in a life filled with noise, the demands of other people and relentless daily duties that can consume the self.
The Quotidian Mysteries: Laundry, Liturgy and “Women’s Work” (Madeleva Lecture in Spirituality) by Kathleen Norris, pg 70
After Pentecost 2013 Bearing Witness, Bearing Burdens
REFLECTION
The contents of my life are meant to be constantly given and shared in a generous gesture of compassion, just as the main purpose of a cup is to have its contents given away.
Joyce Rupp, The Cup of our Lives
Pentecost 2013
REFLECTION
We are the vessels of God’s voice, her words blowing through us, bidding us to tell the tales that only we can speak.
Jan L. Richardson, In Wisdom’s Path
