Gathering  Around  the  Word
 
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.
INVOCATION                                                               Dr. Domske
HYMN      “Holy, Holy, Holy,”                                   Page 1
 
PRAYER OF CONFESSION                         (UNISON)
O Holy God, once again I have failed You this week,
I have expressed my anger to others.
I have been short when I should have been patient.
I have approached each day selfishly, instead of realizing each day belongs to You.  I have sinned.
Forgive me.  Heal me of my selfishness.
Help me to love my neighbor as myself.
Apparently, I cannot do this on my own.
I need You, Almighty God, to lead me through each day
 
ASSURANCE OF PARDON

* Response – Gloria Patri
*Passing of the Peace
 
L: The peace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
P: And also, with you.
