​Prelude:            Ron Dobscha
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
 
CALL TO WORSHIP:
Come, let us sing for joy to the LORD.
    Let us shout aloud to the Rock of our Salvation.
For the LORD is the great God.
    The great King above all others.
Come, let us bow down in worship, let us kneel before the LORD our maker. For He is our God and we are the people of his pasture, the flock under His care.
 
INVOCATION

*Hymn  “Great is Thy Faithfulness”                                   # 39
 
* PRAYER OF CONFESSION:   (Unison)
Father, we confess that we are often reluctant to accept Your ways, we are hesitant to believe that Your ways could possibly be better than ours,
Instead of obedience, we allow our desires and understanding to lead us.
Throughout our days we do not reflect the God that we belong to. Forgive us for wanting to serve anything other than You and reflecting anything other than our Father who has called us children of God. As we confess these sins and many others, we look to Your perfect Son who suffered in our place as our only hope in life and death.  AMEN
