Jeremiah 1:4-10 The Word of the Lord. Thanks be to God.

In you, O Lord, have I taken refuge; * let me never be ashamed.

In your righteousness, deliver me and set me free; * incline your ear to me and save me.

Be my strong rock, a castle to keep me safe; * you are my crag and my stronghold.

Deliver me, my God, from the hand of the wicked, * from the clutches of the evildoer and the oppressor.

For you are my hope, O Lord God, * my confidence since I was young.

I have been sustained by you ever since I was born;

from my mother’s womb you have been my strength; * my praise shall be always of you.

Holy God, be our strength and our salvation, that we may never be ashamed to

praise you for your mighty acts. We ask this through Jesus Christ. Amen.

Sermon The Reverend Howie Adan

Let us affirm our faith in Jesus Christ the Son of God.

Though he was divine He did not cling to equality with God, but made himself nothing.

Taking the form of a slave, he was born in human likeness.

He humbled himself and was obedient to death, even the death of the cross.

Therefore God has raised him on high, and given him the name above every name:

that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,

and every voice proclaim that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Amen.

The Prayers of the People Lord, in Your Mercy Hear our prayer.

Lord, have mercy.

Christ, have mercy.

Lord, have mercy.

The peace of the Lord be always with you. And also with you.
