WORDS OF WELCOME & OPPORTUNITIES FOR
MINISTRY
*CALL TO WORSHIP
L: A love that never ceases,
P: A creativity that designed the universe,
L: A hope that cannot be quenched,
P: A pursuit of reconciliation no matter the cost:
L: These are the things that are of God,
P: Then let us worship God.
All: Lord, today we recall Your faithfulness. Thank You
that You walk with us every day, that You are with us in
each moment. Thank You that Your promises are true and
Your goodness never fails us. May everything within us cry
"Holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was and is and is to
come". And so today we join with all those who worship
and confess You as Lord, from generations past and
present, and with all the angels that sing in heaven of Your
greatness and beauty. Amen.

OFFERING OF OURSELVES AND OUR
GIFTS/OFFERTORY
*Thanksgiving Praise: “Doxology”
RESPONSIVE READING: Psalm 106:1-12, 19-23, 47-48
L: Praise the Lord!
P: Oh give thanks to the Lord who is good; whose steadfast
love endures forever!
L: Who can utter the mighty doings of the Lord, or show forth
all God's praise?
P: Blessed are they who observe justice, who do
righteousness at all times!
L: Remember me, O Lord, when You show favor to Your
people; help me when You deliver them,
P: That I may see the prosperity of Your chosen ones, that I
may rejoice in the gladness of Your nation, that I may
glory in Your heritage.
L: Both we and our forbearers have sinned; we have
committed iniquity, we have done wickedly.
P: Our forbearers, when they were in Egypt, did not consider
Your wonderful works;
L: They did not remember the abundance of Your steadfast
love, but rebelled against the Most High at the Red Sea.
P: God saved them for the sake of His Holy Name, to make
known the mighty power of God.
L: God rebuked the Red Sea and it became dry; and led them
through the deep as through a desert.
P: So God saved them from the hand of the flow, and
delivered them from the hand of the enemy.
L: And the waters covered their adversaries; not one of them
was left.
P: Then they believed God's words; they sang God's praise.
L: They made a calf in Horeb and worshiped a molten image
P: They exchanged the glory of God for the image of an ox
that eats grass.
L: They forgot God, their Savior, who had done great things in
Egypt,
P: Wondrous works in the land of Ham, and terrible things
by the Red Sea.
L: Therefore the Lord intended to destroy them had not
Moses, his chosen one, stood in the breach, to turn away
God's wrath from destroying them.
P: Save us, O Lord our God, and gather us from among the
nations, that we may give thanks to Your Holy Name and
glory in Your praise.
L: Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, from everlasting to
everlasting!
P: And let all the people say, "Amen!" Praise the Lord!
