Almighty God, our heavenly Father, we, like the Israelites of old, have sinned and done wrong and acted wickedly and rebelled, turning aside from Your commandments and rules; and we, too, have not listened to Your servants, the prophets and the apostles.

In the matchless Name of Jesus, grant us Your peace. Amen.

O God our Help in ages past, our Hope for years to come, Our Shelter from the stormy blast, and our eternal home .
Before the hills in order stood or earth received her frame From everlasting Thou art God to endless years the same .
A thousand ages in Thy sight are like an evening gone . Short as the watch that ends the night, before the rising sun .
Time like an ever rolling stream bears all its sons away, They fly forgotten as a dream dies at the opening day.
O God our Help in ages past, our Hope for years to come, Be Thou our Guard while life shall last, and our eternal Home! Amen!

We consider it a privilege to have our children in worship with us. If your small children become restless and vocal, we invite you to the children’s room especially designed for them at the rear of the Sanctuary. They are also welcome in the nursery. Older children should also be encouraged to come to church prepared to stay in their pew throughout the service. One of our pastors will be available after the service to pray for you or to offer helpful direction regarding your spiritual life. He will be in the Gathering Room, which is the first room on your left as you exit the southwest door of the Sanctuary (closest to the pulpit). You may also send your confidential email to [email protected] with questions about your spiritual life.
