Announcements & Prayer

Sweet Hour of Prayer Ambassador Hymnal #190

Sweet hour of pray’r, sweet hour of pray’r! That calls me from a world of care, And bids me at my Father’s throne Make all my wants and wishes known: In seasons of distress and grief, My soul has often found relief; And oft escaped the tempter’s snare, By thy return, sweet hour of pray’r.

Sweet hour of pray’r, sweet hour of pray’r, The joy I feel, the bliss I share Of those whose anxious spirits burn With strong desires for thy return! With such I hasten to the place, Where God, my Savior, shows His face, And gladly take my station there, And wait for thee, sweet hour of pray’r.

Sweet hour of pray’r, sweet hour of pray’r, Thy wings shall my petition bear To Him, whose truth and faithfulness, Engage the waiting soul to bless; And since He bids me seek His face, Believe His word, and trust His grace, I’ll cast on Him my ev’ry care, And wait for thee, sweet hour of pray’r. Only Thou art holy; there is none beside Thee, Perfect in power, in love, and purity.

Sweet hour of pray’r, sweet hour of pray’r, May I thy consolation share, Till from Mount Pisgah’s lofty height I view my home and take my flight: This robe of flesh I’ll drop and rise To seize the everlasting prize, And shout, while passing thru the air, “Farewell, farewell, sweet hour of pray’r.” Only Thou art holy; there is none beside Thee, Perfect in power, in love, and purity.

I Corinthians 12:12-31

Apostles’ Creed p. 4 in Ambassador Hymnal 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; He descended into hell; the third day He rose again from the dead;…

Apostles’ Creed p. 4 in Ambassador Hymnal …He ascended into heaven; And is seated at the right hand of God the Father Almighty; From where He shall come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit; The holy Christian Church, the Communion of Saints; the Forgiveness of sins; The Resurrection of the body, and the Life everlasting, Amen.

Children’s Message: What’s in the bag?

We Are the Church Ambassador Hymnal #349

I am the church! You are the church! We are the church together! Refrain: I am the church! You are the church! We are the church together! All who follow Jesus, all around the world! Yes, we’re the church together.

The church is not a building, the church is not a steeple, the church is not a resting place, the church is a people!

I am the church! You are the church! We are the church together! Refrain: I am the church! You are the church! We are the church together! All who follow Jesus, all around the world! Yes, we’re the church together.

We’re many kinds of people, with many kinds of faces, all colors and all ages, too, from all times and places.

I am the church! You are the church! We are the church together! Refrain: I am the church! You are the church! We are the church together! All who follow Jesus, all around the world! Yes, we’re the church together.

And when the people gather there’s singing and there’s praying, there’s laughing and there’s crying, sometimes, all of it saying:

I am the church! You are the church! We are the church together! Refrain: I am the church! You are the church! We are the church together! All who follow Jesus, all around the world! Yes, we’re the church together.

At Pentecost some people received the Holy Spirit and told the Good News thru the world to all who would hear it.

I am the church! You are the church! We are the church together! Refrain: I am the church! You are the church! We are the church together! All who follow Jesus, all around the world! Yes, we’re the church together.

Let Us Break Bread Together Ambassador Hymnal #285

Let us break bread together on our knees; When I fall on my knees, With my face to the rising sun, O Lord, have mercy on me.

Let us drink wine together on our knees; When I fall on my knees, With my face to the rising sun, O Lord, have mercy on me.

Let us praise God together on our knees; When I fall on my knees, With my face to the rising sun, O Lord, have mercy on me.

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,

The LORD’s Prayer And lead us not into temptation; But deliver us from evil; For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, And the glory, forever and ever. AMEN.
