Call To Worship:
 Calling Song        "Thy Word Is a Lamp"                
UMH #601    
Refrain
Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path.
Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and light unto my path.

When I feel afraid, think I’ve lost my way, 
still you’re there right beside me, 
and nothing will I fear as long as you are near. 
Please be near me to the end.


Refrain

Now I will not forget your love for me and yet 
my heart forever is wandering. 
Jesus, be my guide and hold me to your side, 
and I will love you to the end.


Refrain

Responsive Reading from Psalm 147
Leader: Sing to the Lord with thanksgiving; make melody to our God.
People: He covers the heavens with clouds, prepares rain for the earth, makes grass grow on the hills. 
Leader: Glorious and majestic are his deeds, and his righteousness endures forever.
People: His pleasure is not in the strength of the horse, nor his delight in the power of human legs; 
All: The Lord delights in those who fear him, who put their hope in his unfailing love.

Unison Invocation
Almighty God, we thank you for all those in whose words and writings your truth has come to us.
For those who wrote the Hebrew Bible;
For those who wrote the New Testament;
For the inspiration of the Holy Spirit;
For all whom in every generation have taught and explained and preached the word of Holy Scripture;
We thank you, O God.
Give us minds that can see at once the difference between the true and the false
So that nothing false may ever take us from the Way, the Truth, and the Life in whose name we pray.
Amen.


Hymn          "Guide My Feet"              TFWS #2208
Guide my feet
While I run this race.
Guide my feet
While I run this race.
Guide my feet
While I run this race
For I don’t want to run this race in vain.

Hold my hand...
I’m your child…
Stand by me…


Old Testament Reading - Isaiah 40:21-31
New Testament Reading - 1 Corinthians 9:16-23    

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

Prayers of the People    

Message           “Let’s Go”           Mark 1:29-39             

Commitment Hymn       "Give Me Jesus"

I heard my mother say, I heard my mother say, 
I heard my mother say, “Give me Jesus.”


Refrain
Give me Jesus. Give me Jesus.
You may have all this world. Give me Jesus.

In the morning when I rise…

Oh, when I come to die…

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.
