8:30am Service

PRELUDE “Prelude on ’Finlandia’” Ritter

* CALL TO WORSHIP One: I don’t need anyone! I am perfectly fine doing exactly what I want, all by myself! Many: It is good to be independent and to be self-reliant. You are probably the perfect person who can help someone along the way so they can possess the poise that you have. We need you to be part of us, we shouldn’t go it alone! One: I am lonely traveling this life by myself. I try to be a good follower but I find it difficult to do the things that Jesus wants me to do all by myself. Many: Come and be part of us, we will walk with you. We will learn from each other. We will support each other. Together we will do the things that Jesus taught.. All: We know that where two or three are gathered, Jesus is in our midst. Come and let’s worship the God who doesn’t call us to go through life alone! .

* PASSING THE PEACE Leader: The Peace of Christ be with you All: And also with you!

* HYMN “God, Whose Love Is Reigning o’er Us” UMH 100

OPENING PRAYER Holy Trinity, three in one and one in three! We give thanks that your very nature represents community where there is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit; three persons, one God. We come to celebrate being in community with each other, a community where we are called to love each other and celebrate our very essence and being in you. Be with us in worship as we celebrate and praise you for being part of this family of faith. Amen.

God Is My Rock

God is my rock and my salvation God is my life, my love, my all God is my strength. God is my refuge. Whom shall I fear?

God of my strength enthroned above, Source of my life, the fount of love; O let devotion’s sacred flame waken my soul to praise thy name.

God is my rock and my protector. Safe from all strife I will be. God is my hope and my deliverer. Whom shall I fear?

God of our strength, on Thee we call; God of our hope, our light, our all. Thy name we praise, Thy love adore, Our rock, our shield forever more.

God is my rock and my salvation. God is my life, my love, my all God is my strength! God is my refuge! Whom shall I fear? Amen

Adult Sunday School, 9:45am Session 1: September 9 - October 14 (six weeks) Adult Discussion (Library) Revival: Faith as Wesley Lived It

This study will take you on a six-week journey through England tracing the life of John Wesley. Wesley’s message and his faith continue to speak to twenty-first-century Christians, calling for a revival of our hearts and souls so that our world might be changed. His story is our story. It’s our heritage, it defines our faith, and it challenges us to rediscover our spiritual passion.

Contemporary Living (Alex Olson suite-A) Catch: Guiding visitors to become thriving members

This study will explore how to attract visitors to our church, connect them with our faith community, and help them learn to know, love and serve God.

New Life in Christ (NLIC) Moses: In the Footsteps of the Reluctant Prophet

Retrace the life of Moses - from his rescue as a baby to the courts of Pharaoh, his Exodus out of Egypt, to his gazing on the Promised Land. Combining historical insights, archaeological data, and the biblical text, Pastor Adam Hamilton explores in this DVD series how this reluctant prophet grew in his relationship with God, and how you can overcome your own hesitancy to act boldly for the Lord.

Church and Society Committee Stewardship Tips:

PERFORM REGULAR FURNACE MAINTENANCE.

If you have a forced air furnace, make sure to clean or change the furnace filter about once a month. Most furnaces will need to be professionally cleaned and tuned once a year- why not do it now before winter weather sets in and leaves you shivering while you wait for help to arrive? You’ll save energy and extend the life of your unit.
