Gathering Around the Word
Prelude ANNOUNCEMENTS CALL TO WORSHIP: from Psalm 37 Do not be envious of those who do wrong and are evil; Like the grass and green plants, they will soon wither. Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart Trust in the Lord and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture. Commit your way to the Lord and trust in Him. Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for Him. Refrain from anger and turn from wrath; Do not fret—it only leads to evil. Those who hope in the Lord will inherit the land. The Lord laughs at the wicked and loves the just. INVOCATION
*HYMN “Lord, I want to Be a Christian” # 729
*PRAYER OF CONFESSION: Lord, I want to be a Christian inna my heart, inna my heart. Yet too often I love myself too much. I care about what affects me more than I care for my neighbor, my brother, my sister. I am interested in what value I receive from my efforts rather than what value my efforts give. Forgive my sin. Forgive my selfishness. Forgive my lack of effort in telling others about Your love, Your hope, Your forgiveness. Allow me to “Taste and See that the Lord is good” again. O Lord God, I am still learning to love You! *Time of silent prayer: *Assurance of Pardon *Response – Gloria Patri Baptism of Savannah Marie Hathaway *Passing of the peace Scripture reading Psalm 27: 1- 8, 13 – 14 Lois Miller Acts 2: 36 – 41 Prayer of Illumination SERMON: “Hangin’ Out With The 3000” *HYMN “Take My Life” #697 Confirmation of New Members *Apostles Creed Presentation of tithes and offering Offertory *Doxology *Prayer of dedication INVITATION TO THE LORD’S TABLE Let Us break Bread Together # 525 Communion Alleluia / A Hymn of Joy We Sing Lord’s Prayer * HYMN “Rejoice, Ye Pure in Heart” # 804 (verses 1,3,5) *Benediction Postlude

ANNOUNCEMENTS Prelude CALL TO WORSHIP (Psalm 31) L: Lord God, You are indeed my rock and my fortress; P: For Your name’s sake lead me and guide me. L: Take me out of the net that is hidden for me, for You are my refuge. P: Into Your hand I commit my spirit; You have redeemed me, O Lord, faithful God. INVOCATION Rev. Mason
*HYMN “ Rejoice Ye Pure in Heart” # 804
*PRAYER OF CONFESSION (UNISON) Merciful and loving God, Your love for us is unconditional, yet our love for You, for others and for ourselves is often marred. We allow prejudice and pride to blind us; our brokenness remains unhealed; we cling to old stories and hurts which impede the work of reconciliation. Forgive us, we pray, for failing to trust You, for playing it safe instead of following the daring call of Your Spirit, for withholding forgiveness and grace from ourselves and others. Let Your love renews us yet again. Let the same power that raised Jesus Christ from the dead rekindle creative life within us and restore right relations among us. AMEN *Time of silent prayer. *Assurance of Pardon *Response – Gloria Patri *Passing the Peace L: The peace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you. P: And also, with you.

*HYMN Blest Be the Tie that Binds # 306
*PRAYER OF CONFESSION (UNISON) We confess to you, renewing Spirit, that we confuse unity with uniformity and diversity with divisiveness. We speak and behave as if being a part of your family means assimilating others to our way of living. We deny and destroy the beauty you created in each person. We long to change these patterns, O Creator, but we do not know how. Teach us to value challenge. Help us to see strength in difference. And empower us to build your kingdom in creativity and love.

Prelude Announcements Choir CALL TO WORSHIP Rise and greet the morning. Cast off your sleep and doubt. Arise, meet the risen Christ. Who comforts our grieving hearts, Who encourages our faltering steps, Who splinters us with laughter, Who wrinkles us with compassion, Who raises us to heaven, Who knows us as we shall be fully known. INVOCATION Rev. Mason
* HYMN “Alleluia! Sing to Jesus” # 260
* PRAYER OF CONFESSION (UNISON) Merciful Savior, although blind, we think we see. We are blind to Your presence among us in those who are poor and lonely. We have made invisible those who are in mental or emotional need. We look away from the refugee, the hungry, the homeless in the midst of overwhelming need. We convince ourselves that You came to save people just like us, and therefore, what concerns us must concern You. For our self-focus, Lord, we ask your forgiveness. For our lack of compassion and our complicity in the inequalities between peoples, forgive us. Open our eyes and our hearts to see the truth and turn us away from ourselves that we might desire and pursue your way of righteousness, justice, and peace. We thank You for Your mercy, O Christ. Amen. * Time of silent prayer *Assurance of Pardon *Response – Gloria Patri (Hymnal page 581) *Passing the Peace The peace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you. And also, with you.

ANNOUNCEMENTS Choir CALL TO WORSHIP (Psalm 29) Ascribe to the Lord, O mighty ones, ascribe to the Lord glory and strength. Ascribe to the Lord the glory due His name. Worship the Lord in the splendor of His holiness. The voice of the Lord is over the waters; The God of glory thunders over the mighty waters. The voice of the Lord is powerful. The voice of the Lord strikes with flashes of lightning. The Lord sits enthroned over the flood; The Lord is enthroned as King forever. The Lord gives strength to His people; The Lord blesses His people with peace. INVOCATION
* HYMN “Rejoice, the Lord is King!” # 363
* PRAYER OF CONFESSION (UNISON) Almighty God, in raising Jesus from the grave, You shattered the power of sin and death. We confess that we remain captive to doubt and fear, bound by the ways that lead to death. We overlook the poor and the hungry and pass by those who mourn. We choose to walk in the selfish ways of this world. Forgive us, O God of Mercy, and help us to trust Your power to change our lives and make us new. Usher us into the joy of abundant life given in Jesus Christ, the risen Lord. * Time of silent prayer *Assurance of Pardon *Response – Gloria Patri (Hymnal page 581) *Passing the Peace The peace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

Prelude Music Director Robert Senay ANNOUNCEMENTS CALL TO WORSHIP from Psalm 6 O Lord, do not rebuke me in Your anger or discipline me in Your wrath. Be merciful to me, Lord, for I am faint and weak, O Lord, heal me, for my bones are in agony. How long, O Lord, how long? My soul is in anguish. My eyes grow weak with sorrow. Turn to me now, O Lord, and deliver me: Save me because of Your unfailing love. All night long I flood my bed with weeping and drench my couch with tears. Yet the Lord has heard my cry for mercy; the Lord accepts my prayer. I shall be saved.

People: But his delight is in the law of the Lord, and on the Lord’s law she meditates day and night. Leader: He or she is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in its season, and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he or she does prosper. People: Not so the wicked! They are like chaff that the wind blows away. Leader: Therefore, the wicked will not stand in the judgement, Nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous. People: For the Lord watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the ungodly shall perish. INVOCATION Dr. Domske |
