Opening Hymn “Love Divine, All Loves Excelling” (LSB 700)
verses 1, 2 and 3
Love divine, all loves excelling,
Joy of heav’n, to earth come down!
Fix in us Thy humble dwelling,
All Thy faithful mercies crown.
Jesus, Thou art all compassion,
Pure, unbounded love Thou art;
Visit us with Thy salvation,
Enter ev’ry trembling heart.
Breathe, O breathe Thy loving Spirit
Into ev’ry troubled breast;
Let us all in Thee inherit;
Let us find Thy promised rest.
Take away the love of sinning;
Alpha and Omega be;
End of faith, as its beginning,
Set our hearts at liberty.
Come, Almighty, to deliver;
Let us all Thy life receive;
Suddenly return, and never,
Nevermore Thy temples leave.
Thee we would be always blessing,
Serve Thee as Thy hosts above,
Pray and praise Thee without ceasing,
Glory in Thy perfect love.
Invocation
Liturgist: In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. (Matthew 28:19b)
People: Amen.
Liturgist: Beloved in the Lord! Let us draw near with a true heart and confess our sins unto God our Father, beseeching Him in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to grant us forgiveness.
Liturgist: Our help is in the name of the Lord,
People: who made heaven and earth.
Liturgist: I said, I will confess my transgressions unto the Lord,
People: and You forgave the iniquity of my sin.
Kyrie (LSB 186)
Lord, have mercy upon us.
Christ, have mercy upon us.
Lord, have mercy upon us.
Confession and Absolution
Liturgist: Almighty God, our maker and redeemer, we poor sinners confess unto You that we are by nature sinful and unclean and that we have sinned against You by thought, word, and deed. Wherefore we flee for refuge to Your infinite mercy, seeking and imploring Your grace for the sake of our Lord Jesus Christ.
People: O most merciful God, who has given Your only-begotten Son to die for us, have mercy upon us and for His sake grant us remission of all our sins; and by Your Holy Spirit increase in us true knowledge of You and of Your will and true obedience to Your Word, to the end that by Your grace we may come to everlasting life; through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
Liturgist: Almighty God, our heavenly Father, has had mercy upon us and has given His only Son to die for us and for His sake forgives us all our sins. To those who believe on His name He gives power to become the children of God and has promised them His Holy Spirit. He that believes and is baptized shall be saved.
Grant this, Lord, unto us all.
People: Amen.
Gloria in Excelsis (LSB 187)
Liturgist: Glory be to God on high:
All sing:
and on earth peace, goodwill toward men.
We praise Thee, we bless Thee, we worship Thee,
we glorify Thee, we give thanks to Thee, for Thy great glory.
O Lord God, heav’nly King, God the Father Almighty.
O Lord, the only-begotten Son, Jesus Christ;
O Lord God, Lamb of God, Son of the Father,
that takest away the sin of the world, have mercy upon us.
Thou that takest away the sin of the world, receive our prayer.
Thou that sittest at the right hand of God the Father, have mercy upon us.
For Thou only art holy; Thou only art the Lord.
Thou only, O Christ, with the Holy Ghost,
art most high in the glory of God the Father. Amen.
Salutation and Collect of the Day (LSB 189)
Liturgist: The Lord be with you.
All sing: And with thy spirit.
Liturgist: Let us pray.
O God, the giver of all that is good, by Your holy inspiration grant that we may think those things that are right and by Your merciful guiding accomplish them; through Jesus Christ, Your Son, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.
All sing: Amen.
Motet “My Soul Doth Rejoice” Homilius
Cathedral Singers
My soul doth rejoice in the Lord;
My spirit is joyful in the Lord, my God.
First Reading Acts 10:34-48 NIV
34 Then Peter began to speak: “I now realize how true it is that God does not show favoritism 35 but accepts from every nation the one who fears him and does what is right. 36 You know the message God sent to the people of Israel, announcing the good news of peace through Jesus Christ, who is Lord of all. 37 You know what has happened throughout the province of Judea, beginning in Galilee after the baptism that John preached— 38 how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power, and how he went around doing good and healing all who were under the power of the devil, because God was with him.
39 “We are witnesses of everything he did in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem. They killed him by hanging him on a cross, 40 but God raised him from the dead on the third day and caused him to be seen. 41 He was not seen by all the people, but by witnesses whom God had already chosen—by us who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead. 42 He commanded us to preach to the people and to testify that he is the one whom God appointed as judge of the living and the dead. 43 All the prophets testify about him that everyone who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins through his name.”
44 While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit came on all who heard the message. 45 The circumcised believers who had come with Peter were astonished that the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out even on Gentiles. 46 For they heard them speaking in tongues and praising God.
Then Peter said, 47 “Surely no one can stand in the way of their being baptized with water. They have received the Holy Spirit just as we have.” 48 So he ordered that they be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they asked Peter to stay with them for a few days.
Lector: This is the Word of the Lord.
People: Thanks be to God.
Epistle Reading 1 John 5:1-8 NIV
Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and everyone who loves the father loves his child as well. 2 This is how we know that we love the children of God: by loving God and carrying out his commands. 3 In fact, this is love for God: to keep his commands. And his commands are not burdensome, 4 for everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith. 5 Who is it that overcomes the world? Only the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.
6 This is the one who came by water and blood—Jesus Christ. He did not come by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth. 7 For there are three that testify: 8 the Spirit, the water and the blood; and the three are in agreement.
Lector: This is the Word of the Lord.
People: Thanks be to God.
Alleluia (LSB 190)
Liturgist: Alleluia. Alleluia. Alleluia.
All sing: Alleluia. Alleluia. Alleluia.
Holy Gospel John 10:11-18 NIV
Lector: The Holy Gospel according to St. John, the fifteenth chapter.
All sing: Glory be to Thee, O Lord.
9 “As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. 10 If you keep my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commands and remain in his love. 11 I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete. 12 My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. 13 Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. 14 You are my friends if you do what I command. 15 I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you. 16 You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit—fruit that will last—and so that whatever you ask in my name the Father will give you. 17 This is my command: Love each other.
Lector: This is the Gospel of the Lord.
All sing: Praise be to Thee, O Christ.
Hymn of the Day “Where Charity and Love Prevail" (LSB 845)
Where charity and love prevail
There God is ever found;
Brought here together by Christ’s love
By love are we thus bound.
With grateful joy and holy fear
His charity we learn;
Let us with heart and mind and soul
Now love Him in return.
Forgive we now each other’s faults
As we our faults confess,
And let us love each other well
In Christian holiness.
Let strife among us be unknown;
Let all contention cease;
Be God’s the glory that we seek;
Be ours His holy peace.
Let us recall that in our midst
Dwells Christ, His only Son;
As members of His body joined
We are in Him made one.
For love excludes no race or clan
That names the Savior’s name;
His family embraces all
Whose Father is the same.
Message Pastor Tim Klinkenberg
Hymn of Response (LSB 192)
Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me.
Cast me not away from Thy presence, and take not Thy Holy Spirit from me.
Restore unto me the joy of Thy salvation, and uphold me with Thy free spirit. Amen.
Nicene Creed
I believe in one God,
the Father Almighty,
maker of heaven and earth
and of all things visible and invisible.
And in one Lord Jesus Christ,
the only-begotten Son of God,
begotten of His Father before all worlds,
God of God, Light of Light,
very God of very God,
begotten, not made,
being of one substance with the Father,
by whom all things were made;
who for us men and for our salvation came down from heaven
and was incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the virgin Mary
and was made man;
and was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate.
He suffered and was buried.
And the third day He rose again according to the Scriptures
and ascended into heaven
and sits at the right hand of the Father.
And He will come again with glory to judge both the living and the dead,
whose kingdom will have no end.
And I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the Lord and giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son,
who with the Father and the Son together is worshiped and glorified,
who spoke by the prophets.
And I believe in one holy Christian and apostolic Church,
I acknowledge one Baptism for the remission of sins,
and I look for the resurrection of the dead
and the life of the world to come. Amen.
Prayers of the Church
Each petition concludes with:
Liturgist: Lord, in your mercy,
People: Hear our prayer.
Gathering of Our Tithes and Offerings
Music at the Offering "Meine Seel erhebt den Herren" (My soul praises the Lord" (BWV 10.1) J. S. Bach
Cathedral Singers
Meine Seel erhebt den Herren,
Und mein Geist freuet sich Gottes, meines Heilandes;
Denn er hat seine elende Magd angesehen.
Siehe, von nun an werden mich selig preisen alle Kindeskind.
My soul praises the Lord,
and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior;
for he has looked upon his wretched handmaiden.
See, from now all children's children will praise me as blessed.
Service of the Sacrament (LSB 194)
Pastor: The Lord be with you.
All sing: And with thy spirit.
Pastor: Lift up your hearts.
All sing: We lift them up unto the Lord.
Pastor: Let us give thanks unto the Lord, our God.
All sing: It is meet and right so to do.
Pastor: It is truly meet, right, and salutary that we should at all times and in all places give thanks to You, holy Lord, almighty Father, everlasting God. And most especially are we bound to praise You on this day for the glorious resurrection of Your Son, Jesus Christ, the very Paschal Lamb, who was sacrificed for us and bore the sins of the world. By His dying He has destroyed death, and by His rising again He has restored to us everlasting life. Therefore with Mary Magdalene, Peter and John, and with all the witnesses of the resurrection, with angels and archangels, and with all the company of heaven we laud and magnify Your glorious name, evermore praising You and saying:
Sanctus (LSB 195)
All sing: Holy, holy, holy Lord God of Sabaoth;
heav’n and earth are full of Thy glory.
Hosanna, hosanna, hosanna in the highest.
Blessed is He, blessed is He, blessed is He that cometh in the name of the Lord.
Hosanna, hosanna, hosanna in the highest.
The Lord's Prayer
Pastor: Hear us as we pray in His name and as He has taught us:
People: Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name,
Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven;
give us this day our daily bread;
and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us;
and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory
forever and ever. Amen.
Words of Institution
Pax Domini
Pastor: The peace of the Lord be with you always.
All sing: Amen.
Agnus Dei (LSB 198)
O Christ, Thou Lamb of God, that takest away the sin of the world, have mercy upon us.
O Christ, Thou Lamb of God, that takest away the sin of the world, have mercy upon us.
O Christ, Thou Lamb of God, that takest away the sin of the world, grant us Thy peace. Amen.
Hymn During Communion "Dear Christians, One and All, Rejoice" (LSB 556) arr. Christian Guebert
Dear Christians, one and all, rejoice,
With exultation springing,
And with united heart and voice
And holy rapture singing,
Proclaim the wonders God has done,
How His right arm the vict’ry won.
What price our ransom cost Him!
Fast bound in Satan’s chains I lay;
Death brooded darkly o’er me.
Sin was my torment night and day;
In sin my mother bore me.
But daily deeper still I fell;
My life became a living hell,
So firmly sin possessed me.
But God had seen my wretched state
Before the world’s foundation,
And mindful of His mercies great,
He planned for my salvation.
He turned to me a father’s heart;
He did not choose the easy part
But gave His dearest treasure.
God said to His belovèd Son:
“It’s time to have compassion.
Then go, bright jewel of My crown,
And bring to all salvation.
From sin and sorrow set them free;
Slay bitter death for them that they
May live with You forever.”
Music During Communion "Holy Art Thou" George Frederic Handel, arr. Leigh Kingsmill
Cathedral Singers
Holy, most holy art Thou, Lord God Almighty,
Who wert and art, and art to come.
Holy art Thou, Lord God Almighty,
Glory and majesty in heav'n are Thine.
Earth lowly bending, swells the full harmony,
Blessing and glory to the Lamb forevermore,
For worthy art Thou.
Let all nations and kindreds and peoples
Give thanks to Thee forevermore.
Dismissal
Benediction
Pastor: The Lord bless you and keep you.
The Lord make His face shine on you and be gracious to you.
The Lord look upon you with favor and give you peace. (Numbers 6:24–26)
All sing: Amen, amen, amen.
Closing Hymn “Love Divine, All Loves Excelling” (LSB 700)
verse 4
Finish then Thy new creation,
Pure and spotless let us be;
Let us see Thy great salvation
Perfectly restored in Thee,
Changed from glory into glory,
Till in heav’n we take our place,
Till we cast our crowns before Thee,
Lost in wonder, love, and praise!

Prayers of the Church
May 5th, 2024
Lord Jesus Christ, we are humbled and honored,
that You would no longer call us servants but instead call us friends.
Although we did not choose You, You chose us, and commissioned us to go and bear fruit.
By the work of Your Holy Spirit, bring forth from Your gift of faith the fruit of the Spirit,
that by keeping Your commands and remaining in Your love, our joy would be complete.
Lord, in Your mercy,
Father of love, out of great love for You and for sinners,
our Lord Jesus laid down His life for the world.
Increase in us true love for one another, that like our Lord,
and with the knowledge that everyone born of God overcomes the world,
we may sacrifice for one another, not as a people burdened,
but as a people victorious in Jesus.
Lord, in Your mercy,
Heavenly Father, we give You thanks for the birth of Hadley Reese Klinkenberg,
a daughter blessed to Justin and Jessie Klinkenberg.
Be with Justin and Jessie, that You would give them grace and wisdom
to raise Hadley in the knowledge and understanding of Your Word.
Send Your holy angels to shield and protect Hadley and grant her good health.
Bring her to the saving waters of Holy Baptism,
and grant her that precious inheritance awaiting her in Your eternal kingdom.
Lord, in Your mercy,
Lord God, we praise You that we are fearfully and wonderfully made.
We celebrate the birthdays of Jesse and Zach Wobrock this weekend,
as well as the birthday of Corinne Bode tomorrow.
Continue to send Your blessings and benefits to these, Your children,
and protect them, preserve them, and provide for them,
that they may proclaim Your marvelous deeds to all the nations.
Lord, in Your mercy,
Gracious God, we give You thanks for the joy and blessings that You have given Nancy and Brady MacDonald through 30 years of marriage.
By Your Holy Word, may they live in steadfast love and faithfulness to one another.
Grant them grace to remember with gladness that You have joined them together
to be a friend and companion, both in times of joy and in times of sorrow.
May they continue to grow in love for each other and toward You,
and come at last to the eternal joys that You have promised.
Lord, in Your mercy,
Lord God, the Giver of all that is good,
grant Your healing and support to all who are in sorrow or need, sickness or adversity.
We pray especially for:

Lord, in Your mercy,
Heavenly Father, we thank You that You are fair, just, and unbiased.
You accept from every nation the one who fears You and does what is right.
Heal the divisions that separate Your children from one another,
that they may keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
Lord, in Your mercy,
O Lord, heavenly Father, graciously receive our prayers,
deliver and preserve us, for to You alone we give all glory, honor and worship,
