CALL TO WORSHIP:     from Psalm 41
Blessed is the one who has regard for the weak;
the Lord delivers that person in times of trouble.
  The Lord will protect him and preserve his life;
   the Lord will bless him in the land and restore him.
The Lord will sustain her on her sickbed
and restore her from her bed of illness
   I said, “O Lord, have mercy on me;
  heal me, for I have sinned against You.”
I know You are pleased with me in my integrity,
for my enemy does not triumph over me.
  You uphold me and set me in Your presence forever,
  Praise be to the Lord our God, from everlasting to
 everlasting.

Gathering Around the Word
Prelude         Choir
ANNOUNCEMENTS
 
CALL TO WORSHIP            from Psalm 40
I waited patiently for the Lord;
He turned to me and heard my cry.
     He lifted me out of the slimy pit;
     He lifted me out of the mud and mire.
He set my feet on a rock,
And gave me a firm place to stand.
     He put a new song in my mouth;
     He gave me a hymn of praise to our God.
Blessed is the one who makes the Lord his trust.
Here I am!  I desire to do Your will, O my God.
     Many, O Lord my God, are the wonders You have done.
    The things You have done for us are too many to declare.
 
INVOCATION
 *HYMN   “When Morning Gilds the Skies”                   # 667

 *PRAYER OF CONFESSION:
Many are the ways I have failed You this week, O Lord.
I have done things my way rather than consulting You.
I have too often ignored others when I should be looking to their needs.  I have not gone the extra mile for anyone but myself.
 
Forgive me.  Restore me.  Allow me to desire Your presence above all.  Help me to reflect Your Love to my family.
Assist me in sharing Your forgiveness and hope with all whom
I touch and meet.  Thank You for constantly forgiving me.

Prelude           Choir                           
ANNOUNCEMENTS
 
CALL TO WORSHIP
People of God, worship the living God today!
   Remember that out of nothing God created the heavens
   and earth.
Remember that God raised Jesus from the powerlessness of death to the power of his right hand.
   Remember that not even the gates of hell can stand
   against God’s purposes.
All:  Behold your God, who reigns now and forever!
 
INVOCATION
*HYMN   “Jesus Christ Is Risen Today”                      232
                      (intro then 4 verses)
 
*PRAYER OF CONFESSION
Have mercy on me, O God, in Your faithful love, in Your great tenderness wipe away my offences; wash me thoroughly from, my guilt, purify me from my sin. For I am well aware of my offences, my sin is constantly in mind.  But You delight in sincerity of heart, and in secret You teach me wisdom.  God, create in me a clean heart, renew within me a resolute spirit, do not thrust me away from Your presence, do not take away from me Your spirit of holiness.  Give me back the joy of Your salvation, sustain in me a generous spirit. Lord, open my lips, and my mouth w3ill speak out Your praise.  Sacrifice gives You no pleasure, burnt offering You do not desire. Sacrifice to God is a broken spirit, a broken contrite heart You never scorn.,
