Worship for Sunday, Oct. 24

Audio worship service for the 22nd Sunday after Pentecost, Oct. 24, 2021, from Queen Anne Lutheran Church in Seattle, with Pastor Dan Peterson and Cantor Kyle Haugen. About today’s music: The three hymns for the 10:30 service are featured in today’s prelude and postlude. The prelude includes variations on tunes from today’s hymns that come to us from the American gospel tradition. The variations on PRECIOUS LORD are by Sylvia Berg Oines (b. 1953), who currently serves as organist at Bethany Presbyterian Church, less than a mile from us. The setting of FAITHFULNESS is by Pam Gervais (b. 1960), a family farmer near Tracy, Minn. who holds degrees in piano performance and composition. Today’s postlude, based on the Sending Hymn (10:30), is by Ronald A. Nelson (1927–2014), who is also the composer of the music for Holy Communion we sing today from Setting Four in Evangelical Lutheran Worship. —Cantor Kyle Prelude: Variations on PRECIOUS LORD Sylvia Berg Oines (b. 1953); Variations on FAITHFULNESS Pam Gervais (b. 1960) Gathering Hymn: Dearest Jesus, at Your Word (520) First reading: Isaiah 53:4-12 Second reading: Hebrews 5:1-10 Gospel: Mark 10:35-45 Pastor Dan's sermon is “The Lost Disciples of Jesus.” Hymn of the Day: Precious Lord, Take My Hand (733) Sending Hymn: Rise, O Church, Like Christ Arisen (548) Postlude: Variations on SURGE ECCLESIA Ronald A.
