Gathering Around  the  Word                                
 Prelude                                                          Bob Senay          
ANNOUNCEMENTS
                               
CALL TO WORSHIP           
Leader: Give ear, O heavens, and I will speak.
People: Let the earth hear the words of our mouths.
Leader: My teaching shall drop as the rain; my speech
             shall distill as the dew, as the light rain upon the
             tender plant, and as the showers upon the grass.
People: We will proclaim the name of the Lord and
              render glory unto our God!
INVOCATION                                             Rev. Mason
HYMN     Immortal, Invisible, God Only Wise                    12
 
CALL TO CONFESSION
PRAYER OF CONFESSION              (UNISON)
Merciful God, we say the very thing we do not want to say, with words that are angry, thoughtless, even mean-spirited. We speak when we should remain silent, and we remain silent when we should speak with boldness for the sake of love and justice. We cannot tame our tongues on our own. We ask for your forgiveness and for your deliverance. Restore and redeem us, that our mouths might declare the wonder of your grace, the beauty of your creation and the joy of being your forgiven sons and daughters. In Jesus' name we pray. Amen
 
 Assurance of Pardon
Hear the good news! In Christ Jesus, we are forgiven and set free from our own self- righteousness. AMEN
*Time of silent prayer
*Response – Gloria Patri 
 
*Passing of the peace.
L: The peace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you.      
P: And also, with you.
 
                        The Word of God
Prayer for Illumination                                           
Scripture reading   PSALM 52
Psalm 52For the director of music. A maskil[b] of David. When Doeg the Edomite had gone to Saul and told him: “David has gone to the house of Ahimelek.”1 Why do you boast of evil, you mighty hero?
    Why do you boast all day long,
    you who are a disgrace in the eyes of God?
2 You who practice deceit,
    your tongue plots destruction;
    it is like a sharpened razor.
3 You love evil rather than good,
    falsehood rather than speaking the truth.[c]
4 You love every harmful word,
    you deceitful tongue!
5 Surely God will bring you down to everlasting ruin:
    He will snatch you up and pluck you from your tent;
    he will uproot you from the land of the living.
6 The righteous will see and fear;
    they will laugh at you, saying,
7 “Here now is the man
    who did not make God his stronghold
but trusted in his great wealth
    and grew strong by destroying others!”
8 But I am like an olive tree
    flourishing in the house of God;
I trust in God’s unfailing love
    for ever and ever.
9 For what you have done I will always praise you
    in the presence of your faithful people.
And I will hope in your name,
    for your name is good.
                             L: The Word of the Lord
                          P: Thanks be to God!
