*CALL TO WORSHIP
Calling Song: “Seek Ye First”  UMH #405
Seek ye first the kingdom of God
and his righteousness;
and all these things shall be added unto you.
Allelu, alleluia!

Ask, and it shall be given unto you;
seek and ye shall find;
knock and the door shall be opened unto you.
Allelu, alleluia!

Responsive Reading From Psalm 130
Leader: Out of the depths I cry to you, O Lord. Lord, hear my voice~
People: Let you ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications!
Leader: If you, O Lord, kept a record of iniquities, Lord, who could stand?
People: But there is forgiveness with you, so that you may be revered.
Leader: I wait for the Lord, my soul waits, and in his word I hope;
All: My soul waits for the Lord.

Unison Invocation
Loving God, 
open our ears to hear your word and draw us closer to you.
We confess our need to be here
and hold to the promise that Jesus will somehow be here as well.
We pray in his name. Amen.

Hymn “Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing” UMH #400
Come Thou fount of every blessing
Tune my heart to sing Thy grace
Streams of mercy never ceasing
Call for songs of loudest praise
Teach me some melodious sonnet
Sung by flaming tongues above
Praise the mount, I'm fixed upon it
Mount of Thy redeeming love

Here I raise my Ebenezer
Hither by Thy  help I'm come
And I hope by Thy good pleasure
Safely to arrive at home
Jesus sought me when a stranger
Wandering from the fold of God
He to rescue me from danger
Interposed His precious blood

Oh, to grace how great a debtor
Daily I'm constrained to be
Let Thy goodness like a fetter
Bind my wandering heart to Thee
Prone to wander, Lord I feel it
Prone to leave the God I love
Here's my heart, oh take and seal it
Seal it for Thy courts above

Hallelujah! I have found it,
the full cleansing I had craved
And to all the world I'll sound it;
They too may be wholly saved.
I am sealed by Thy sweet Spirit, 
Prone no longer now to roam;
And Thy voice, I'll humbly hear it,
For Thy presence is my home.

Praise God, from whom all blessing flow;

*Closing Hymn “Spirit of the Living God” UMH 393
Spirit of the living God, fall afresh on me.
Spirit of the living God, fall afresh on me.
Melt me, mold me, fill me, use me.
Spirit of the living God, fall afresh on me.

Unison 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.
