ANNOUNCEMENTS: CALL TO WORSHIP: (from Psalm 130) Out of the depths, we cry to You, O LORD! Let Your ears be attentive to our pleas If You, O LORD remembered our sins, who could stand? But with You there is forgiveness! We wait for the LORD, our souls wait and in His word we hope All you people, hope in the LORD! For with the LORD there is steadfast love. He has redeemed His people. Let us together worship our great God and redeemer. INVOCATION: *Hymn “Savior, Like a Shepherd Lead Us” # 187 * PRAYER OF CONFESSION: Lord, when our flesh fails us, when we give in to the sin that desires to pull us away, when we fail to flee temptation, have mercy on us. All of us have been led by our flesh instead of Your Spirit. We have fallen short sometimes in great ways that are brought to light and sometimes in our hearts where only You can see. Our only hope is in a Redeemer who takes the cross in our place. Forgive us Lord, and remember the work of Your Son when we have sinned. Restore to us the peace that comes through forgiveness and reset our focus on following You. Amen *Time of silent prayer *Assurance of Pardon *Response – Gloria Patri # 581 *Passing of the peace Children’s Chat Prayer for Illumination Scripture reading: Psalm 19 Suzie McCoy Sermon text: Galatians 3: 1-15 *Hymn “For the Beauty of the Earth” # 14 *Apostles Creed (on back of Joys & Concerns) Presentation of our tithes and offering Offertory *Doxology # 606 *Prayer of dedication Concerns and celebrations Prayers of the people The Lord’s Prayer *Hymn “Precious Lord, Take My Hand” # 834 Benediction Postlude Carol Smith

Prelude: Ron Dobscha
ANNOUNCEMENTS: CALL TO WORSHIP: (from Psalm 140) We praise You, sovereign LORD! You shield us in times of trouble. The LORD secures justice for the poor The LORD upholds the cause of the needy The righteous will praise Your name Surely they will live in Your presence We come now to worship You, O LORD. You have rescued and upheld Your people! INVOCATION: *Hymn “There Is a Fountain Filled with Blood” (See Insert) * PRAYER OF CONFESSION: Lord, when our lives are filled with trouble and the circumstances of this life, we often forget all that You have done for us and in us. Instead of turning to You in thankfulness and for help, we often hide ourselves from You. We doubt Your power and control over creation and we try to go at this life on our own. We don’t love You or love our neighbors as we should. We reject Your commands as the rule of our lives. Forgive us for the many ways we have sinned and bring those sins to light so that we may turn to You again. Have mercy on us and remember our sins no more.

We bow down before You, and praise Your name When we call, You answer us May we sing of the ways of the LORD, for the glory of the Lord is great Though the LORD is exalted, He looks kindly on the lowly Even when we walk in the midst of trouble, You preserve our lives With Your hand, You have saved us.

INVOCATION:
*Hymn “Come Thou Almighty King” # 2 * PRAYER OF CONFESSION: LORD, in our pride we have valued pleasing others and ourselves more than pleasing You. We have sought the approval of the things You have created and ignored the approval of their creator. We have conformed to the image of this world and resisted the ways You have been making us like Your Son. Have mercy on us for thinking more of this world and less of Your kingdom. Have mercy on us for wanting to be guided by our sinfulness and not Your Spirit. Forgive us and remember our sin no more.

*Hymn “Lord, I Want to Be a Christian” # 729
* PRAYER OF CONFESSION: Lord, we confess today that our hearts have not been given fully to You. There have been times when the Gospel has thrilled us, when Jesus seemed so precious to us and other times when everything else seemed more important than the Savior. Forgive us for giving our attention to anything above Your Son. Forgive us for treasuring any worldly message above the message of the Gospel. See us not as we are but as Your Son is and give us hearts that treasure what You have done through Your Son above anything else in this world.
