Welcoming | My Peace (As we return to our seats.) | Pastor Bill Johnson |
We give thanks to you, God of Grace and Glory, that you know us; we give praise, God of love, that you walk with us. We are humbled to be made in your image, and awed that you gave your only son so that we might live. O Lord, we give thanks; we bend our knees and bow our heads. You forgave our sins! Now, we come to you again for forgiveness, because we often forget your gift, or we are too self concerned to care. Hear us, we pray, and lead us back to you. Help us to remember your Promise, clear our eyes that we may see and help those in need, and be kind to those we love. We ask in Jesus’ name, Amen. |

Passing of the Peace | O Worship The King | Congregation |
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. |
