Welcome
Opening Prayer
Children’s Message -Becky Hibbard
*Call to Worship -from Psalm 100
Make a joyful noise to the LORD, all the earth.
Serve the LORD with gladness.
Come into his presence with singing.
Know that the LORD is God. It is he who made us, and we are his.
We are his people and the sheep of his pasture.
Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise.
Give thanks to him; bless his name.
For the LORD is good; his steadfast love endures forever.
His faithfulness to all generations.

Prayer of Application
Our Response to God
*Profession of Faith The Apostle’s Creed (Please rise in body or spirit.)
I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth. And in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord; who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried; He descended into hell. The third day he rose again from the dead. He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty. From there he will come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of Saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.
Sharing of Joys and Concerns

The Lord’s Prayer
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen.
