PRAYER OF THE DAY
Let us pray.
God of mercy, we no longer look for Jesus among the dead, for he is alive and has become
the Lord of life. Increase in our minds and hearts the risen life we share with Christ, and
help us to grow as your people toward the fullness of eternal life with you, through Jesus
Christ, our Savior and Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God,
now and forever. Amen.
WORD
FIRST READING: Acts 10:34-43
Then Peter began to speak to them: "I truly understand that God shows no partiality, but in
every nation anyone who fears him and does what is right is acceptable to him. You know
the message he sent to the people of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ — he is Lord of
all. That message spread throughout Judea, beginning in Galilee after the baptism that John
announced: how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power;
how he went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God
was with him. We are witnesses to all that he did both in Judea and in Jerusalem. They put
him to death by hanging him on a tree; but God raised him on the third day and allowed
him to appear, not to all the people but to us who were chosen by God as witnesses, and
who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead. He commanded us to preach to
the people and to testify that he is the one ordained by God as judge of the living and the
dead. All the prophets testify about him that everyone who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins through his name."
Holy wisdom, holy word.
Thanks be to God.
PSALM 118:2-4, 12-14
Please join in singing this refrain at the direction of the cantor.

Setting by R. Proulx
SECOND READING: 1 Corinthians 15:1-11
Now I would remind you, brothers and sisters, of the good news that I proclaimed to you,
which you in turn received, in which also you stand, through which also you are being
saved, if you hold firmly to the message that I proclaimed to you — unless you have come to
believe in vain.
For I handed on to you as of first importance what I in turn had received: that Christ
died for our sins in accordance with the scriptures, and that he was buried, and that he was
raised on the third day in accordance with the scriptures, and that he appeared to Cephas,
then to the twelve. Then he appeared to more than five hundred brothers and sisters at one
time, most of whom are still alive, though some have died. Then he appeared to James, then
to all the apostles. Last of all, as to one untimely born, he appeared also to me. For I am the
least of the apostles, unfit to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.
But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace toward me has not been in vain. On
the contrary, I worked harder than any of them — though it was not I, but the grace of God
that is with me. Whether then it was I or they, so we proclaim and so you have come to
believe.
Holy wisdom, holy word.
Thanks be to God.

GOSPEL: Mark 16:1-8
The Holy Gospel according to Mark.
Glory to you, O Lord.
When the sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome
bought spices, so that they might go and anoint him. And very early on the first day of the
week, when the sun had risen, they went to the tomb. They had been saying to one another,
"Who will roll away the stone for us from the entrance to the tomb?" When they looked up,
they saw that the stone, which was very large, had already been rolled back. As they entered the tomb, they saw a young man, dressed in a white robe, sitting on the right side; and
they were alarmed. But he said to them, "Do not be alarmed; you are looking for Jesus of
Nazareth, who was crucified. He has been raised; he is not here. Look, there is the place
they laid him. But go, tell his disciples and Peter that he is going ahead of you to Galilee;
there you will see him, just as he told you." So they went out and fled from the tomb, for
terror and amazement had seized them; and they said nothing to anyone, for they were
afraid.
And all that had been commanded them they told briefly to those around Peter.
And afterward Jesus himself sent out through them, from east to west, the sacred and
imperishable proclamation of eternal salvation.
The Gospel of the Lord.
Praise to you, O Christ.

OFFERTORY PRAYER
Let us pray.
Blessed are you, O God, ruler of heaven and earth.
Day by day you shower us with blessings.
As you have raised us to new life in Christ,
give us glad and generous hearts,
ready to praise you and to respond to those in need,
through Jesus Christ, our Savior and Lord.
Amen.
THE GREAT THANKSGIVING
It is indeed right, our duty and our joy, that we should at all times and in all places give
thanks and praise to you, almighty and merciful God, for the glorious resurrection of our
Savior, Jesus Christ, the true Paschal Lamb who gave himself to take away our sin, who in
dying has destroyed death, and in rising has brought us to eternal life. And so, with Mary
Magdalene and Peter and all the witnesses of the resurrection, with earth and sea and all
their creatures, and with angels and archangels, cherubim and seraphim, we praise your
name and join their unending hymn:
7
Blessed are you, O God of the universe.
Your mercy is everlasting
and your faithfulness endures from age to age.
Praise to you for creating the heavens and the earth.
Praise to you for saving the earth from the waters of the flood.
Praise to you for bringing the Israelites safely through the sea.
Praise to you for leading your people through the wilderness
to the land of milk and honey.
Praise to you for the words and deeds of Jesus, your anointed one.
Praise to you for the death and resurrection of Christ.
Praise to you for your Spirit poured out on all nations.
In the night in which he was betrayed,
our Lord Jesus took bread, and gave thanks;
broke it, and gave it to his disciples, saying:
Take and eat; this is my body, given for you.
Do this for the remembrance of me.
Again, after supper, he took the cup, gave thanks,
and gave it for all to drink, saying:
This cup is the new covenant in my blood,
shed for you and for all people for the forgiveness of sin.
Do this for the remembrance of me.
8
With this bread and cup
we remember our Lord's passover from death to life
as we proclaim the mystery of faith:
O God of resurrection and new life:
Pour out your Holy Spirit on us
and on these gifts of bread and wine.
Bless this feast.
Grace our table with your presence.
Come, Holy Spirit.
Reveal yourself to us in the breaking of the bread.
Raise us up as the body of Christ for the world.
Breathe new life into us.
Send us forth,
burning with justice, peace, and love.
Come, Holy Spirit.
With your holy ones of all times and places,
with the earth and all its creatures,
with sun and moon and stars,
we praise you, O God,
blessed and holy Trinity,
now and forever.
LORD’S PRAYER
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come,
your will be done, on earth as in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us.
Save us from the time of trial and deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours, now and forever.
Amen.

BREAKING OF THE BREAD AND INVITATION
Lord, reveal yourself to us in the breaking of the Bread

Albrecht Dürer, died
1528; Matthias Grünewald, died 1529; Lucas
Cranach, died 1553;
artists
These great German
artists revealed through
their work the mystery
of salvation and the
wonder of creation.
Dürer's work reflected
the apocalyptic spirit of
his time. Though he
remained a Roman
Catholic, he was sympathetic to Martin Luther's reforming work. Grünewald's
paintings are known for their dramatic forms, vivid colors, and depiction of light. Cranach's work includes many fine religious examples
and several portraits of Martin Luther. Cranach was also widely
known for his woodcuts.
Thursday, April 9
Dietrich Bonhoeffer,
theologian, died 1945
Bonhoeffer was a German theologian who
wrote profoundly, yet
in an accessible manner. In the Second
World War, he became a leader of the
Confessing Church in
Germany that resisted
the Nazi movement.
Linked to a plot to kill
Hitler, he was hanged
shortly before the end
of the war.
Friday, April 10
Mikael Agricola, Bishop of Turku,
died 1557
Consecrated bishop of Turku, Finland, without the approval of the
pope, Agricola began a reform along
Lutheran lines. In only three years,
he translated the New Testament and
worship texts into Finnish, in the
process establishing the rules of
Finnish writing that are still used
today.

Many of us could use a focused time to get our financial future in focus. PRLC is going to help meet that need by hosting Dave Ramsey’s Financial Peace University.
We all need a plan for our money. Dave's class will show you how to get rid of debt,
manage your money, spend and save wisely, and much more! In 9 lessons, you'll learn
to take control of your money and invest in your and your family’s future. These classes
will be a part of our Bread for the Journey Wednesday night programming for 9 weeks
beginning April 8th. Dinner will be from 6:00-6:30, and childcare will be provided. The
class costs $93 per family for the materials. Optional dinner is $5.00 per class. Childcare is free. If you are interested in possibly joining the class, sign up on this morning’s
count me in or e-mail Parish Administrator Darren Hochstedler at [email protected]
and we will send more information as the class date approaches.

Welcome Visitors
We welcome all who worship with us today. Here are
some notes about our congregation and our facility to
help you feel at home among us.
Nursery A staffed nursery is available for children from
birth through age 5 on the sanctuary level down the hall
past the drinking fountain. Please sign your child in and
out of nursery care. Usually parents gather their children
before communion so that they can come to the Table
together. An usher will be glad to direct you.
Restrooms are located on the sanctuary level just past
the library. In addition to Men’s and Women’s rooms
there is also a Family room with a changing table.
Count Me In Form is that little slip of paper in your worship folder. We ask all worshipers to complete this each
week. Special prayer requests may be made on the back
of the form and if there are special “sign ups” you can do
that on the back. Place it in the offering plate as it is circulated during the service.
Grace Station is an outreach of the church office available every Sunday morning. Office Manager Christina Bogar is there to provide information about our church and
to receive information such as address, phone or email
changes, prayer requests and news about illness or hospitalizations. Current newsletters and program information are located there. Look for the “check in desk” in
the church gathering area.
Check out the Phinney Ridge Lutheran Church website at www.prlc.org for more
information on our congregation, our ministries and many opportunities for service
and study.
Join us again! We worship every Sunday at 8:30 and 11:00 a.m. and would be
honored to have you join us for worship again, soon, and often.
