Call to Worship

I give thanks to my God always for you because of the grace of God that was given you in Christ Jesus,  that in every way you were enriched in him in all speech and all knowledge—  even as the testimony about Christ was confirmed among you— so that you are not lacking in any gift, as you wait for the revealing of our Lord Jesus Christ,  who will sustain you to the end, guiltless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.


1 Corinthians 1:4-8


God is good

Welcome & Announcements


Confession and Pardon

-Invitation

-Unison Confession:


Let us confess our sin before God and one another. 


Lord Jesus Christ,

Sin is our malady, our monster, our foe, our viper, 

born in our birth, alive in our life, 

strong in our character, dominating our faculties, 

following us as a shadow, intermingling with our every thought, 

a chain that holds us captive.

Yet your compassions yearn over us, 

your heart hastens to our rescue, 

your love endured our curse, 

your mercy bore our justice.

Let us walk in humility, 

bathed in your blood, 

tender of conscience, 

triumphing gloriously as heirs of salvation 

through your blessed name.  Amen



-Silent prayer

-Assurance of Pardon:


Therefore, as you received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in him,  rooted and built up in him and established in the faith, just as you were taught, abounding in thanksgiving


I declare to you who trust in Jesus, you are forgiven and free!

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.

Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil, 

For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.

Q. To whom is baptism to be administered?


A. Baptism is not to be administered to anyone outside of the visible church until they profess their faith in Christ and their obedience to him; but the infants of members of the visible church are also to be baptized.
