Welcome and Morning Greeting
INTROIT: Hymn: “His Name is Wonderful” CALL TO WORSHIP: We seek a big enough God who has overcome all things. Jesus said, “If you would be my disciple, you must deny yourself and take up the cross.” We take heart knowing that “nothing can separate us from God’s love, which enables us to do all things.” This we do by the promise of faith guaranteed by God’s abounding grace. Amen.

INTROIT: Hymn: “His Name is Wonderful” CALL TO WORSHIP: (Psalm 25) Lord, make me to know Your ways, O Lord; teach me Your paths. Lead me in Your truth, and teach me, for You are the God of my salvation; for You I wait all day long. Be mindful of Your mercy, O Lord, and of Your steadfast love, for they have been from of old. Do not remember the sins of my youth or my transgressions; according to Your steadfast love remember me, for Your goodness’ sake, O Lord! Good and upright is the Lord; therefore He instructs sinners in the way. He leads the humble in what is right, and teaches the humble His way.

Welcome and Morning Greeting
INTROIT: Hymn: “It Is No Secret” CALL TO WORSHIP: In times of trouble and distress, God is always present with us. When we call out, God hears us. The name of the oLd brings comfort to heavy hearts. In God’s name alone do we put our trust. The Lord will help those who seek God. God will answer the prayers of the people. Some take pride in their might and accomplishments. We will boast in God alone. We rise and stand on the righteousness of God. Let us worship God who is faithful, merciful and just!
INVOCATION
Hymn: “Sweet Hour of prayer” CALL OF CONFESSION: God is a healing God, a loving God, and a forgiving God. Let us confess our sins before God. PRAYER OF CONFESSION: Holy and awesome God, through your Son you revealed yourself as the divine Healer, as one who desires for us wholeness of body, mind and spirit. Unlike the crowds who surrounded Jesus, urgently turning to him to be made well, we are all too likely to try to heal ourselves. We mask our pain instead of facing our fears and loneliness. We confuse what we need with what we want, and we are unwilling to allow you to change our desires to reflect what you want for us. Forgive us, merciful God. Forgive our willingness to live apart from the transforming grace and power of your love. Strengthen our faith so that we may trust in your healing presence in our lives. Amen ASSURANCE OF PARDON: Jesus stands ready to heal and forgive us; all we need do is ask in faith. God’s mercy is limitless. Thanks be to God! In Jesus Christ we are forgiven! Passing the Peace L.
