THE ORDER OF MORNING WORSHIP 15TH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME

10:00 AM JULY 15, 2018

THE FIRST NOTE OF THE PRELUDE begins our worship. Please use

the prelude time to turn your attention to God’s presence and help.

Nurturing our relationships and friendships in fellowship is essential to our life as a congregation, so please continue to do so following our time of worship.

Those who are able are invited to stand.

FOCUSING UPON GOD’S PRESENCE AND VOICE

PRELUDE “Jesus, Savior, Lord, Now to You I Come SARANAM (PUNJABI MELODY)

WELCOME AND ANNOUNCEMENTS

CALL TO WORSHIP Leader: Come, let us worship God with the passion and joy of

King David and all the people who sang and danced

before the Ark of the Covenant.

People: Let us worship our Savior with songs of praise and

thanksgiving of the apostle Paul and all who are

blessed with every spiritual blessing.

Leader: God has blessed us in our Lord Jesus Christ, destined us

to be children of God, and sealed us in the Holy Spirit.

People: Let us worship God.

OPENING PRAYER

HYMN #157 “I Danced in the Morning” LORD OF THE DANCE

blameless. The riches of God’s grace promise

CHARGE & BENEDICTION

POSTLUDE “Make Your Face to Shine” JAY WELDON WILKEY

People: Holy, holy, holy Lord, you are the God of glory.

We confess that we often forget that your holiness is

dangerous. We take our impurities for granted, make

excuses for the sins we commit, and expect you to

overlook the harm we cause while still demanding justice

from others. We do not deserve your mercy. Forgive us,

and return us to a right relationship with you for the

sake of your Son, Jesus Christ. You made us for the

purpose of praising you; enliven us with the Holy Spirit

so that we can fulfill our calling in the name of our Lord

Jesus Christ.

ASSURANCE OF FORGIVENESS

SHARING THE PEACE

Leader: Since God has forgiven us, let us also forgive one another.

The peace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.

People: And also with you.

Leader: Let us share our forgiven joy with one another.

HYMN OF ASSURANCE #581 GLORIA PATRI

Glory be to the Father,

and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost; As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, World without end. Amen, Amen.

PHOTO ALBUMS IN DISREPAIR There are several photo albums that were put together for our

Is there someone who would like to take on the task of making them attractive again, perhaps putting in new albums? Reimbursement, for sure. Please contact Sally Heimbach if this task speaks to you. Thanks!
