ANNOUNCEMENTS;
CALL TO WORSHIP: (Psalm143) LORD, in Your faithfulness and righteousness come to our relief. Do not bring us into judgement. Remember Your righteousness and not our unrighteousness. When our spirit grows faint and our hearts are dismayed Help us to meditate on Your works and consider what Your hands have done. Show us the way we should go. We trust our lives to You. Teach us to do Your will. All: May Your good Spirit lead us on level ground.
*Hymn “”Love Divine, All Love Excelling (verses 1&2) # 366
* PRAYER OF CONFESSION: Loving God, we confess that we have stifled Your Spirit within us. You have sent us the Spirit of love, but we have preferred to hate those who oppose us. You have sent us the Spirit of joy, but we have taken Your gifts for granted and been ungrateful. You have sent us the Spirit of peace, but we have allowed our selfishness to cause division and disharmony. You have sent us the Spirit of patience, but we have been worried and anxious when we have not seen immediate results from our efforts, or evidence of Your love. You have sent us the Spirit of kindness, but we have been indifferent to other people’s needs. You have sent us the Spirit of goodness, but through thoughtlessness, as well as our deliberate wrongdoing, we have sinned. You have sent us the Spirit of faithfulness, but we have been fickle in our resolve, unreliable disciples of Jesus. You have sent us the Spirit of gentleness, but we have been insensitive to the feelings of others. You have sent us the Spirit of self-control, but we have lived recklessly, without disciplining ourselves. Forgive us, merciful God. Teach us how much we need the power of Your Spirit in our lives; and breathe new life into us; for Your glory and the sake of the Gospel’s proclamation. Amen. *Time of silent prayer *Assurance of Pardon *Response – Gloria Patri # 581 *Passing of the peace Children’s Chat Prayer for Illumination Scripture reading: John 14: 8-17, 25-27 Sermon text: Genesis 11: 1-9 *Hymn “Spirit of The Living God”7 # 288 *Apostles Creed (on back of Joys & Concerns) Presentation of our titles and offering Offertory - Doxology *Prayer of dedication Concerns and celebrations Prayers of the people/ The Lord’s Prayer INVITATION TO THE LORD’S TABLE “Let us break Bread Together” Communion “Alleluia” * INVOCATION “A Hymn of Joy We Sing” (insert) BENEDICTION

We will praise You as long as we live. With our mouths we will glorify You. We will rejoice in God. All: Your hand, O God upholds us. *Hymn “Faith of Our Father’s (Mothers) 1 verse (see insert)
* PRAYER OF CONFESSION:
O most great, most just and gracious God; You are of purer eyes than to behold iniquity; but You have promised mercy through Jesus Christ to all who repent and believe in Him. Therefore we confess that we are sinful by nature and that we have all sinned and come short of the glory of God. We have dealt unjustly and uncharitably with our neighbors, We have not sought first Your kingdom and righteousness. We have not been content with our daily bread. You have revealed Your wonderful love to us in Christ and offered us pardon and salvation in Him; but we have turned away. We have run into temptation; and the sin that we should have hated, Have mercy upon us, most merciful Father! We confess You alone are our hope. Make us Your children and give us the Spirit of Your Son, our only Savior.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: CALL TO WORSHIP: Come now, today and worship the LORD. Worship Him with all of your Heart, all of your might, with all of your soul, worship Him. For His name alone is exalted. His splendor, His beauty is above the earth and the heavens. The LORD has raised up for His people, a mighty and victorious horn, Jesus the Savior. The people of God are close to His heart, He has kept His promises to us in Jesus. So once more and forever more, praise Him. INVOCATION:
*Hymn “Lord, I want to Be a Christian” #729
* PRAYER OF CONFESSION: Heavenly Father, like the people of Judah who read and reread Your law yet continuously turned away from it, so we have been. You have written Your laws upon our hearts and yet we harden our hearts to those things and suppress them for the ways of sin. We have been rebels and disobedient children. We commit ourselves to following You and are quick to turn from that commitment. But even today, as we come before You covered in sin, help us to see the One who never sins. Turn our sin weary hearts back to Jesus today and in His love for us, wash us clean.
