Welcoming/Preparing to Meet with God | “The King Is Coming” | Pastor Bill Johnson |
God of the ages, we gather to sing and celebrate on this Palm Sunday, praising you for all you have done for your creation. Even as you remain steadfast in keeping your promises, help us to also remain steadfast in sharing those promises. Forgive us when we fail to love and share you with the same love you have given us. Thank you for your loving forgiveness, mercy, and grace that brings us new life in Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen |
||
Prelude | “All Glory, Laud and Honor” | Choir |
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 | “O For A Thousand Tongues” | Pastor Bill Johnson |
We trust in God the Holy Spirit, everywhere the giver and renewer of life. The Spirit justifies us by grace through faith, sets us free to accept ourselves and to love God and neighbor, and binds us together with all believers in the one body of Christ, the Church. In a broken and fearful world the Spirit gives us courage to pray without ceasing, to witness among all peoples to Christ as Lord and Savior, and to work with others for justice, freedom and peace. |
