Prelude:      Ron Dobscha
ANNOUNCEMENTS;
 
CALL TO WORSHIP: (based on Psalm 68)
Praise be to the Lord, to God our Savior!
   Who Daily bears our burdens
From the sovereign Lord comes an escape from death 
   Our God is a God who saves
Sing to God all the kingdoms of the earth
   Sing praises to the Lord
To Him who rides across highest heavens
   Proclaim the power of God!
 
*Hymn  “ All Hail the Power of Jesus Name!”                          # 263
                  (verses 1&4)
* PRAYER OF CONFESSION:
Our Lord and our God, throughout our lives we daily forget the majesty of Your name.  We think too lowly of Your holiness, justice, and power and think far too highly of Your created things.  We fall into sin, seeking to feed the sinful nature in us that wars against the Holy Spirit.  Sin to us is light, easy and we ignore Your anger against it.  Allow us to see the weight of our sin as it stands before the only holy One. Allow us to see our weakness and faults before the almighty One. But having confessed our sin to You, most merciful Father, allow us also to see Your decree of forgiveness.  By our confession, trusting in the name of Your Son, allow us to know forgiveness and a righteousness that is not our own. Amen

Prelude: Ron Dobscha 
ANNOUNCEMENTS; 
 
CALL TO WORSHIP:  
To You LORD, we call 
   Do not turn a deaf ear towards us 
Hear our cries to You, O LORD. Cries for mercy and for help. 
   We lift up our hands to the Most Holy One. 
The LORD is the strength of His people. 
   The LORD as the fortress of our salvation, He is the Shepherd 
   who will carry us forever. 
Come, now is the time to worship our Great God and King! ​
*Hymn  “O Beautiful for Spacious Skies” # 338  
(verses 1 & 3) 
* PRAYER OF CONFESSION:  ( A prayer by Martin Luther) 
Behold, Lord, I am an empty vessel that needs to be filled.  
My Lord, fill it.  I am weak in faith; Strengthen me, I am cold in love;  
Warm me and make me fervent that my love may go out to my neighbor,  
I do not have strong and firm faith; at times I doubt and am unable to trust You altogether, O Lord, help me. Strengthen my faith and trust in Thee.  In You I have sealed the treasures of all I have. I am poor; You are rich and came to be merciful to the poor.  I am a sinner, You are upright. With me there is an abundance of sin; In You is the fullness of righteousness. Help and forgive me, O Lord, for my only hope is in You.  Amen

Prelude: Ron Dobscha 
ANNOUNCEMENTS; 
 
CALL TO WORSHIP: (Psalm 16) 
 O God in You we take our refuge!  You are our safety, in Your loving 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! ​
*Hymn  “ O God Our Help in Ages Past” (verses 1 & 5) # insert 
 
* PRAYER OF CONFESSION: 
Merciful Father, You know all things about Your children. Even though we have dark notions inside us of greed, self-indulgence and other manners of evil, we do not desire to live in that way.  Therefore, we ask You to search our hearts and know our thoughts.  We confess all hidden sins to You now. Cleanse us thoroughly from all unrighteousness. Forgive our considerations of wickedness and free us to live each day in sincerity and truth.  We pray this in Jesus precious name, Amen

IPLF PROGRAM  

EDUCATION FOR ENRICHMENT AND SERVICE  
IN OUR PRESBYTERIAN  CHURCH (USA)  
 

Wanting to learn, grow in faith, and serve the Lord in ministry?  Wondering whether God might be calling you to preach or to another way of serving the church?  
 
Inter-Presbytery Leadership Formation is a collaborative program among presbyteries to train, educate and prepare those called to serve as Ruling Elders in particular pastoral service. Led by experienced pastoral leaders, IPLF students engage in:  
  • Courses  in New Testament, Old Testament,  Reformed Theology, and Worship & Sacraments.  
  • Workshops on foundational pastoral concerns and practical ministry practices for the present ministry context.  
  • Practicums doing ‘hands-on’ pastoral ministry with supervision from experienced pastoral leaders.  
While students participate in the educational program they are discerning - in concert with their respective presbytery in anticipation for possible service based upon their gifts and the existing needs of the church in their region.  
Take the next step in faith.  Learn more at the IPLF Open  
House sponsored in Washington Presbytery on June 14, 10:00 a.m. at Emmanuel Presbyterian Church or reach out to [email protected]; 724.833.0340.  You may just be surprised to find how the Lord wants you to serve.

Sponsored by the Presbyteries of Redstone, Washington,  
UOV, Pittsburgh, Beaver-Butler and Shenango  ​
