Call to worship (Jeremiah 18, Psalm 139)

We come with praise
for the wonderful works of God.
Even before we speak,
God knows us completely.
The Holy One knows us and sustains us,
even in our moments of confusion and doubt.
Who can count the thoughts of God?
They are more than all the sands of the desert.
Like clay in the hand of the potter,
we are shaped into vessels of divine will.
We come with praise
for the wonderful works of God. Oh come, let us sing to the LORD;

let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation!

Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving;

let us make a joyful noise to him with songs of praise.

Amen

Doxology

Traditionally, this is the time in which we dedicate a portion of all that God has Given us for his use. Due to limitations imposed by the pandemic our offerings can be placed in a plate located at each exit. We hope that you will use this time to reflect on how much God has given to us.

Prayer dedicating our gifts to God.

Hymn Have Thine Own Way Pg. 382

Communion

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 sits 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 life everlasting. Amen.
