Visit KFUO.org to view the schedule and listen to services. \nFind church near me \n\nConfessing the Holy Trinity\nThe Athanasian Creed\, which was written by an anonymous author in the 5th century\, is the Church’s confession of the Holy Trinity. On Trinity Sunday\, the Church proclaims the Christian faith through the words of the Athanasian Creed. \n“The Athanasian Creed declares that its teachings concerning the Holy Trinity and our Lord’s incarnation are “the catholic faith.” In other words\, this is what the true Church of all times and all places has confessed. More than fifteen centuries later\, the Church continues to confess this truth\, confident that the triune God\, Father\, Son\, and Holy Spirit\, has given Himself for our salvation.” \n\nThe Athanasian Creed — Text (Lutheran Service Book p. 319)\n\n\nThe Athanasian Creed — Spoken responsive version\n\n\nThe Athanasian Creed — Sung version\n\n\nThe Athanasian Creed — Sung responsive version\n\n\nThe Athanasian Creed — With hymn verses\n\nSource: This translation of the Athanasian Creed (Quincunque Vult) is from Lutheran Service Book.

Commercial reproduction or reproduction for sale of this work in part or in whole without the written permission of the copyright holder is prohibited. \n\nLiturgical colors for Trinity Sunday\nThe altar will be adorned with white\, which is the color of purity and completeness. This color assists in bearing the message that “though your sins be as scarlet\, they shall be white as snow.” Christ’s triumph from the grave on Resurrection Day is the cause for our rejoicing. His purity before his Father becomes our purity. White reinforces that message of joy. \n\nThree-Year Series A\nScripture readings\n\nGenesis 1:1—2:4a\n\n\nActs 2:14a\, 22–3\n\n\nMatthew 28:16–20\n\n  \nLectionary summary\nThe Holy Triune God Recreates Us in the Image and Likeness of Christ Jesus\nThe holy Triune God “created the heavens and the earth\,” and “behold\, it was very good” (Gen. 1:1\, 31). However\, after Adam and Eve fell into sin and plunged God’s good creation into decay and death\, the Son of God would be “delivered up according to the definite plan and foreknowledge of God” to be “crucified and killed by the hands of lawless men” (Acts 2:23). As Jesus “received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit” (Acts 2:33)\, He also raises up all the baptized and pours out the Spirit upon them through the preaching of His Gospel. He sends out His apostles to “make disciples of all nations” by “baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit\,” and “teaching them to observe all that [He has] commanded” (Matt. 28:19–20). Through such baptizing and teaching — Gospel and Sacraments — the holy Triune God recreates us in the image and likeness of His incarnate Son\, Jesus\, the Christ\, and behold\, it is “very good” (Gen. 1:31). \n\nOne-Year Series\nScripture readings\n\nIsaiah 6:1–7\n\n\nRomans 11:33–36\n\n\nJohn 3:1–15 (16–17)\n\n  \nLectionary summary\nThe Holy Trinity Reveals Himself to Sinners\nWhen Isaiah beheld the glory of the Lord\, he cried out “Woe is me!” For the sinner cannot stand in the presence of a holy God and live (Is. 6:1–7). But God the Father lifted up His Son Jesus for us on the cross\, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life. This eternal life of Christ is given us according to the Holy Spirit’s good pleasure in Baptism. “Unless one is born [again] of water and the Spirit\, he cannot enter the kingdom of God” (John 3:5). To sinners in fear of death\, the messengers of God place on our lips the living body and blood of Christ and speak His words of absolution\, “Your guilt is taken away\, and your sin atoned for” (Is. 6:7). Having received forgiveness and life from the Father through the Son by the Holy Spirit\, we join with the angels in praising the blessed Trinity\, “Holy\, holy\, holy is the LORD of hosts!” (Is. 6:3). “For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things. To Him be glory forever. Amen” (Rom. 11:33–36). \n\nLCMS Worship\n\nlcms.org/worship\n\n\nWorship planning resources\n\n\nSubscribe to monthly resources email\n\nFind church near me

SUMMARY:Pentecost
DESCRIPTION:The Day of Pentecost will be celebrated on Sunday\, May 28\, 2023. \nTo attend a Pentecost service\, visit locator.lcms.org/church to find a local Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod congregation. Enter your zip code and click “Search” to see a list of area churches\, service times\, and contact information. \nIf you are homebound\, traveling\, or otherwise unable to attend a service in person\, KFUO Radio airs worship services throughout the church year. Visit KFUO.org to view the schedule and listen to services. \nFind church near me \n\n  \nWhat is Pentecost?\nThe word “Pentecost” (pronounced PEN-tuh-kost) comes from the Greek word pentekostos which means “fiftieth.” Exactly 50 days after Jesus rose from the dead\, the Holy Spirit came upon the disciples in the form of flames of fire. \n\n  \nBulletin inserts\nKids in the Divine Service — Pentecost \n\nEnglish\n\n\nSpanish\n\n\n  \nLiturgical colors for Pentecost\nThe altar will be adorned with red. Red is a power color and is appropriate for use on Pentecost Sunday. On this day we remember the power and fire of “the Lord and Giver of Life\,” who revealed himself as the promised one. The color red communicates the motif of strength-strength and power the Holy Spirit gives in order for God’s people to call on the name of Jesus Christ and share that powerful name with others. \n\n  \nThree-Year Series A\nScripture readings\n\nNumbers 11:24–30\n\n\nActs 2:1–21\n\n\nJohn 7:37–39\n\n  \nLectionary summary\nThe Risen Lord Jesus Pours Out the Holy Spirit\nThe Lord took “some of the Spirit” that was on Moses “and put it on the seventy elders” of Israel (Num. 11:25)\, and they “prophesied in the camp” (Num. 11:26). In the same way\, our risen Lord Jesus poured out His Holy Spirit at the Feast of Pentecost — the 50th day and the “Eighth Sunday” of Easter. When “a sound like a mighty rushing wind” and “tongues as of fire appeared” and rested on each of the 12 apostles\, “they were all filled with the Holy Spirit” and proclaimed “the mighty works of God” (Acts 2:2–4\, 11). The Lord Jesus grants this same Spirit to His Church on earth to proclaim Him glorified on the cross and risen victorious from the grave for us sinners. From His open heart\, our crucified and risen Lord pours out His Holy Spirit in “rivers of living water” (John 7:38) and invites everyone who thirsts to come to Him and drink freely (John 7:37). Through this life-giving work of the Holy Spirit\, we hear our pastors “telling in our own tongues the mighty works of God” (Acts 2:11)\, and “everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved” (Acts 2:21). \n\n  \nOne-Year Series\nScripture readings\n\nGenesis 11:1–9\n\n\nActs 2:1–21\n\n\nJohn 14:23–31\n\n  \nLectionary summary\nThe Holy Spirit Gives Peace\nFollowing the flood\, Noah’s descendants failed to spread out and fill the earth as God had spoken. Rather\, they exalted themselves; with “one language and the same words” (Gen. 11:1) they spoke proudly and arrogantly. The Lord humbled them by confusing “the language of all the earth\,” dividing and dispersing the people (Gen. 11:9). That dispersal was reversed on Pentecost Day (the fiftieth day of Easter)\, when God caused the one Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ to be preached in a multitude of languages. “At this sound the multitude came together” (Acts 2:6)\, for the preaching of Christ is the primary work of the Holy Spirit\, whereby He gathers people from all nations into one Church. The Holy Spirit teaches and brings to our remembrance the words of Jesus\, which are the words of the Father who sent Him. These words bestow forgiveness and peace to those who keep and hold on to them in love for Jesus. “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled\, neither let them be afraid.” (John 14:27). \n\n  \nLCMS Worship\n\nlcms.org/worship\n\n\nWorship planning resources\n\n\nSubscribe to monthly resources email\n\nFind church near me
