Morning Worship at Richmond Park Church

'Praise him with the sounding of the trumpet, praise him with the harp and lyre, praise him with tambourine and dancing, praise him with the strings and the flute, praise him with the clash of cymbals...Let everything that has breath praise the Lord' ~ Psalm 150: 3-6

Morning Worship

On Sunday mornings we meet at 10.30am. We run Little Fish for the 0 to 5 year olds, Jesus and Me (for 6 to 11 year olds) and Young People's Fellowship (12 to 16s). All the church folk that work with the kids are CRB (Criminal Record Bureau) checked and cleared.

Richmond Park Church is what is sometimes known as a "happy clappy" church!!

The Story of Jesus (drama sketch)

Narrator: Later, on a mountain in Galilee, Jesus came to the disciples and said “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age” (Mathew 28: 16-20). The disciples said:

Believer: Jesus, Saviour, Son of God, Lord (arms up in praise)

Narrator: Then Jesus ascended into heaven (Mark 16:19, Luke 24: 50-51), leaving his disciples with the power of the Holy Spirit to share the good news about the forgiveness of sins and reconciliation with God (Luke 24: 45-49). And the same message still goes out today:

Believer: Jesus, Saviour, Son of God, Lord (said x3 in unison with Sceptic, whilst walking forward. End kneeling, face down in worship, freeze whilst Sceptic 2 and Believer 2 speak and then for a further count of three at the very end)

Sceptic: Jesus, Liar, Trouble-Maker, Fool (said x3 in unison with Believer, whilst walking forward. End standing, arms folded, looking defiant, freeze whilst Sceptic 2 and Believer 2 speak and then for a further count of three at the very end)

Sceptic 2: Jesus, Liar, Trouble-Maker, Fool (stands up from where he/she is seated among the congregation, to be said loudly and angrily, then storm out of church without any apology or explanation and don’t reappear until other actors have finished and left the stage)

Believer 2: Jesus, Saviour, Son of God, Lord (stands up from where he/she is seated among the congregation, to be said loudly and passionately, arms up in praise, freeze for a count of three)


The End.

The Story of Jesus, continued

Narrator: It was a long, drawn-out, painful death.

(Believer covers face crying)

Narrator: Mary Magdalene was the first to see Jesus alive again (Mark 16:9, John 20: 11-17) as she stood outside the tomb crying, wondering who had moved his body and where to. Jesus said to her “Mary...” Mary said:

Believer: Jesus, Saviour, Son of God, Lord (falling to knees in worship)

Narrator: As two of the disciples walked from Jerusalem to Emmaus, Jesus joined them (Luke 24: 13-35):

Believer: Jesus, Saviour, Son of God, Lord (stepping forward, arms out)

Narrator: Jesus then appeared to the disciples who were hiding in a locked room, afraid of the religious leaders (John 20: 19-23). Jesus said, “Peace be with you!”. The disciples said:

Believer: Jesus, Saviour, Son of God, Lord (falling to knees, arms out, then stand up and step back)

Narrator: And then again when the disciples were out fishing Jesus stood on the shore and called to them (John 21: 1-14). The disciples said:

Believer: Jesus, Saviour, Son of God, Lord (stepping forward, arms out)

Narrator: The religious leaders and Romans talked together to get their story straight. They decided to say the disciples had stolen the body (Matthew 28: 11-15).

Sceptic: There was no resurrection! Jesus, Liar, Trouble-Maker, Fool.

The Story of Jesus (Christian drama sketch)

Narrator: And so Pilate was persuaded to hand Jesus over to be crucified (John 19:16). As Jesus hung on the cross, the religious leaders, the soldiers, and the passing crowds all stopped to mock him (Matthew 27:39-44, Mark 15:29-32, Luke 23: 35-37):

Sceptic: You saved others, why don’t you save yourself? Jesus, Liar, Trouble-Maker, Fool

Narrator: Two thieves were crucified next to Jesus (Luke 23:39-43).

(Sceptic and Believer both put arms out at same time as though hung on cross as Narrator says this line)

Narrator: One of the thieves called out:

Sceptic: Jesus, Liar, Trouble-Maker, Fool (arms out as though hung on cross)

Narrator: But the other thief said:

Believer: Jesus, Saviour, Son of God, Lord (arms out as though hung on cross, look up slowly)

Narrator: And Jesus answered him: “I tell you the truth, today you will be with me in Paradise” (Luke 23: 43).

(Sceptic and Believer put arms down at same time)
