Call To Worship: 
Calling Song       "Holy Ground"
       TFWS #2272
We are standing on holy ground, 
and I know that there are angels all around;
Let us praise Jesus now; we are standing 
in his presence on holy ground.

Responsive Reading from Psalm 50:1-6

Leader: The Mighty One, God, the Lord, speaks and summons the earth from the rising of the sun to where it sets.
People: From Zion, perfect in beauty, God shines forth. 
Leader: Our God comes and will not be silent; a fire devours before him, and around him a tempest rages.
People: He summons the heavens above, and the earth, that he may judge his people.
Leader: “Gather to me this consecrated people, who made a covenant with me.” 
All: And the heavens proclaim his righteousness, for God alone is judge!

Unison Invocation       UMH #259
Holy God, upon the mountain you revealed our Messiah,
who by his death and resurrection would fulfill 
both the law and the prophets.
By his transfiguration enlighten our path
So that we dare to suffer and serve with him
sharing the joy of his company, 
and the everlasting glory of him 
who reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, 
One God, for ever. Amen


Hymn      "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot"        UMH #703
Swing low, sweet chariot, coming for to carry me home;
Swing low, sweet chariot, coming for to carry me home.

I looked over Jordan, and what did I see, 
Coming for to carry me home?
A band of angels coming after me,
Coming for to carry me home. Swing low…

If you get there before I do, coming for to carry me home;
Tell all my friends I’m coming too, 
Coming for to carry me home. Swing low…

I’m sometimes up, I’m sometimes down,
Coming for to carry me home;
But still my soul feels heavenly bound,
Coming for to carry me home. Swing low…


Old Testament Reading - 2 Kings 2:1-12
New Testament Reading - 2 Corinthians 4:3-6    

God’s Word for God’s people, Thanks be to God!

Prayers of the People 
  
Message       “Listen to Him”         Mark 9:2-9             

Commitment Hymn          "Open our Eyes"
        TFWS 2086 
Open our eyes, Lord, we want to see Jesus,
To reach out and touch him, and say that we love him.
Open our ears, Lord, and help us to listen.
Open our eyes, Lord, we want to see Jesus.

Benediction
May the peace of the Lord Jesus go with you 
wherever he may send you.
May he guide you through the wilderness, 
protect you through the storm.
May he bring you home rejoicing 
at the wonders he has shown you.
May he bring you home rejoicing once again into our doors.
