*CALL TO WORSHIP Rod Corder
Leader: Come, sing praises to God! Rejoice in His presence! For He is
our God: a father to the fatherless, and the defender of all who
need protection; the One in whom the lonely find a home, and the
prisoner finds release.
People: Bless the Lord, the God of our salvation, Who sustains and
strengthens us, day after day.
All: Let us worship God, our Father, together!

Church, for the love and support you have shown me while I

accept that you now leave to minister at Austin Avenue

our gratitude for your time among us. We ask your
forgiveness for our mistakes. Your influence on our faith
and faithfulness will not leave us with your departure.
Pastor: I accept your gratitude and forgiveness, and I forgive you,
trusting that our time together and our parting are pleasing to
God. I release you from turning to me and depending on me.
I encourage your continuing ministry here and will pray for
you and for your interim pastor, Ed George.
All: Eternal God, whose steadfast love for us is from
everlasting to everlasting, we give You thanks for
cherished memories and commend one another into Your
care as we move in new directions. Keep us one in Your
love forever, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
