Prayer

Silent prayer 

Followed by the audible repetition of the Lord’s Prayer with its spiritual interpretation by Mary Baker Eddy

​​

                 Our Father which art in heaven,     ​​​​​​​​​

Our Father-Mother God, all-harmonious,

Hallowed be Thy name.     

Adorable One.

Thy kingdom come.     

Thy kingdom is come; Thou art ever-present.

Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.     

Enable us to know, as in heaven, so on earth, God is omnipotent, supreme.

Give us this day our daily bread;     

Give us grace for to-day; feed the famished affections;

And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.     

And Love is reflected in love;

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil;     

And God leadeth us not into temptation, but delivereth us from sin, disease, and death.

For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever.     

For God is infinite, all-power, all Life, Truth, Love, over all, and All.

​​​​​​​​​​

GOLDEN TEXT

1 John 4:14

we of the world ... we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour

of the world.

​​​​​​

RESPONSIVE READING

John 9:39 Jesus (to ;); John 10:7 Verily, 9, 11, 14, 16-18, 27-30

39  ... Jesus said, For judgment I am come into this world, that they which

see not might see;

7  ... Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.

9  I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in

and out, and find pasture.

11  l am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.

14  I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.

16  And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring,

and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.

17  Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might

take it again.

18  No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay

it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received

of my Father.

27  My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:

28  And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall

any man pluck them out of my hand.

29  My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to

pluck them out of my Father's hand.

30  I and my Father are one.

Scientific Statement of Being

There is no life, truth, intelligence, nor substance in matter. All is infinite Mind and its infinite manifestation, for God is All-in-all. Spirit is immortal Truth; matter is mortal error. Spirit is the real and eternal; matter is the unreal and temporal. Spirit is God, and man is His image and likeness. Therefore man is not material; he is spiritual.

From Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy, p.468, line 9

Correlative Scripture

I John 3:1–3 Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.
