Welcoming/Preparing to Meet with God | Special Music | Pastor Bill Johnson |
O God of transforming Grace, give us the mind of Christ. Enable us to see the vision of his resurrection glory on the mountain, and then go with him back to the valley of life where people are waiting. Thank you for the joy of your grace and the power of your presence. Thank you for the beauty of this moment with you at our Lord’s Table. Forgive us when we fence off this Table; when we place only ourselves around Christ’s Table. Have mercy when we neglect to share this Table and your merciful grace with those around us. Thank you for your forgiving mercy and grace in Jesus as we pray in his name and for the sake of this world. Amen |

Prelude | “To God Be the Glory” | Praise band |
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. |

Pastoral Greeting | “Thou Art Worthy” | Pastor Bill Johnson |
I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord; who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried; he descended into hell; the third day he rose again from the dead; he ascended into heaven, and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead. I believe in the Holy Ghost, the holy catholic church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen |
