* Call to Worship

“Morning Has Broken” UMH #145

Morning has broken
like the first morning,
blackbird has spoken
like the first bird.
Praise for the singing!
Praise for the morning!
Praise for them, springing
fresh from the Word!

Sweet the rain’s new fall
sunlit from heaven,
like the first dewfall
on the first grass.
Praise for the sweetness
of the wet garden,
sprung in completeness
where God’s feet pass.

Mine is the sunlight!
Mine is the morning
born of the one light
Eden saw play!
Praise with elation,
praise every morning,
God’s recreation
of the new day!


*Responsive Reading - Liturgist Psalm: 138 UMH Page 853
Response: (General)
I sing your praise for steadfast love;
fulfill your purpose for me.

Hymn “Hymn of Promise” UMH #707

In the bulb there is a flower;
in the seed, an apple tree;
in cocoons, a hidden promise:
butterflies will soon be free!
In the cold and snow of winter
there's a spring that waits to be,
unrevealed until its season,
something God alone can see.

There's a song in every silence,
seeking word and melody;
there's a dawn in every darkness
bringing hope to you and me.
From the past will come the future;
what it holds, a mystery,
unrevealed until its season,
something God alone can see.

In our end is our beginning;
in our time, infinity;
in our doubt there is believing;
in our life, eternity.
In our death, a resurrection;
at the last, a victory,
unrevealed until its season,
something God alone can see.


We Offer Our Gifts Offertory
*Doxology “Praise God, from Whom All Blessings Flow” UMH #95

Praise God, from whom all blessings flow;
praise him, all creatures here below;
praise him above, ye heavenly host;
praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Amen.


*Offering Prayer

Message “Faith” - Pastor

Holy Communion – Service of World and Table II UMH Pg. 12
THE GREAT THANKSGIVING
A SERVICE OF WORD AND TABLE I I (Pg. 12-15)
INVITATION

Christ our Lord invites to his table all who love him, who earnestly
repent of their sin and seek to live in peace with one another.
Therefore, let us confess our sin before God and one another.

CONFESSION AND PARDON.
Merciful God, we confess that we have not loved you with
our whole heart. We have failed to be an obedient church.
We have not done your will, we have broken your law, we
have rebelled against your love, we have not loved our
neighbors, and we have not heard the cry of the needy.
Forgive us, we pray. Free us for joyful obedience, through
Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Leader: Hear the good news: Christ died for us while we were yet
sinners; that proves God's love toward us.
In the name of Jesus Christ, you are forgiven!
People: In the name of Jesus Christ, you are forgiven! Glory to
God. Amen.


THE GREAT THANKSGIVING
The Lord be with you.
And also with you.
Lift up your hearts.
We lift them up to the Lord.
Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
It is right to give our thanks and praise.
It is right, and a good and joyful thing, always and everywhere
to give thanks to you, Father Almighty, creator of heaven and
earth. And so, with your people on earth and all the company of
heaven we praise your name and join their unending hymn:

*Hymn “Wonderful Words of Life” UMH #600

Sing them over again to me,
wonderful words of life;
let me more of their beauty see,
wonderful words of life;
words of life and beauty
teach me faith and duty.


Refrain:
Beautiful words, wonderful words,
wonderful words of life.
Beautiful words, wonderful words,
wonderful words of life.


Christ, the blessed one, gives to all
wonderful words of life;
sinner, list to the loving call,
wonderful words of life;
all so freely given,
wooing us to heaven. (Refrain)


Sweetly echo the gospel call,
wonderful words of life;
offer pardon and peace to all,
wonderful words of life;
Jesus, only Savior,
sanctify forever. (Refrain)


*Benediction “God Be with You till We Meet Again” UMH #672

God be with you till we meet again;
By his counsels guide, uphold you,
with his sheep securely fold you;
God be with you till we meet again.

Till we meet, till we meet, till we meet at Jesus' feet;
till we meet, till we meet, 
God be with you till we meet again.

Postlude (Please be seated)
- Symbolically taking the light into the World -

Thank you for worshiping with us today!
