CALL TO WORSHIP     (Psalm 32)

​* HYMN   O Worship the King, All Glorious Above        # 41
 
* PRAYER OF CONFESSION               (UNISON)
Most merciful God, whose Son Jesus Christ was tempted in every way, yet without sin, we confess before You that we have sinned; we have hungered after that which does not satisfy; we have compromised with evil; we have doubted Your power to protect us.  Forgive our lack of faith; have mercy on our weakness. Restore in us such love and trust that we may walk in your ways and delight in doing Your will.
 
* Time of silent prayer
*Assurance of Pardon
Friends, by the grace of God, you and I have been forgiven of our sins and invited to a renewed life with our Lord and savior, Jesus Christ! Amen!
 
*Response – Gloria Patri  (Hymnal page 581)

L: The peace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
P: And also, with you.

LENTEN WORSHIP SERVICES

All services are at 4 p.m. The offering will be given to the McGuffey Food Pantry.  As the host congregation for March 12, North Buffalo has been asked to provide greeters, an accompanist, ushers to collect the offering and at least two volunteers to count and record the offering in cash and checks, to record the total and to turn over the offering to a designated presbytery volunteer.  At Easter, all of the offerings will be given to the food pantry.

Those interested in serving in one of these roles should contact a member of our worship and music committee.

Each church has also been asked to ensure that the speaker system is in good working order and to provide a fellowship space and light refreshments after the service.  The presbytery will provide bulletins for each afternoon’s service.
