“Rejoice, the Lord Is King!”
Mark Patterson
*Call To Worship Lift your voice and call out to God. We cry out believing God hears us! Wait for the Lord as people of hope and faith. We trust and believe that God is listening. God’s presence is here with us now. Our hope is in the Lord whose steadfast love endures forever. Amen. *Hymn of Praise “Rejoice the Lord Is King” Passing of the Peace
UMH #715
Time of Prayer - 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 trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen.
*Affirmation of Faith (Apostles’ Creed)
UMH #881
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 Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried; the third day he rose from the dead: he ascended into heaven, and sitteth at 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 Spirit, the holy catholic church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen. Gloria Patri Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Ghost; as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen. Amen.
Prayer For Illumination Lord, we give thanks to you for your living Word. May your spirit live in what we speak and hear today, and may it inspire us to love you and love others, even as your love is revealed to us. Amen. Scripture
