ANNOUNCEMENTS: CALL TO WORSHIP: (Psalm 16) Oh God in You we take our refuge! You are our safety, in Your embrace we find all our needs met and our hopes are born. You are our Lord, apart from You we have no good things! Those who chase after other gods, who look to anything other than You have not known the peace that our God brings. We could have all the riches in the world and still it is You that is our portion and our cup! You make known to us the path of life. You fill us with joy in Your presence. Praise God today for His wonderful deeds! INVOCATION

* PRAYER OF CONFESSION: Heavenly Father, You know us so well. In fact, You know the very depth of our hearts, even better than we know ourselves.

Help us to be gracious and longsuffering with our friends, family and even our enemies. You alone have washed away our sins through the blood of Jesus Christ. Remind us that You extend to all people an offer of merciful righteousness and grace. May we be grateful for Your love.

Prelude: Ron Dobscha
ANNOUNCEMENTS: CALL TO WORSHIP: (Psalm 63: 1-4) O God, You are my God: I seek You; my soul thirsts for You; My flesh faints for You, as in a dry and weary land where there is no water. So I have looked upon You in the sanctuary, beholding Your power and glory. Because Your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise You. So I will bless You as long as I live; I will lift up my hands and call on Your name. INVOCATION: *Hymn “Here in this Place” # 401 * PRAYER OF CONFESSION: Gracious God, our sins are too heavy to carry, too real to hide, and too deep to undo. Forgive what our lips tremble to name, what our hearts can no longer bear, and what has become for us a judgement that consumes us. Set us free from a past that we cannot change; open us to a future in which we can be changed; And grant us grace to grow evermore in the likeness and image of Jesus Christ. For it is His name we pray, Amen *Time of silent prayer *Assurance of Pardon *Response – Gloria Patri # 581 *Passing of the peace Children’s Chat Prayer for Illumination Scripture reading: Genesis 17: 1-13 Lois Miller Sermon text: Galatians 3: 15-29 Sermon “Heirs of The Promise Fulfilled, No Turning Back” *Hymn “How Firm a Foundation” # 463 *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 “MY Hope is Built on Nothing Less” # 353 Benediction Postlude Ron Dobscha
