Prelude Simple Gifts Thomas 🎼

Call to Worship 🙌

Make a joyful noise to God, all the earth!

Sing of God’s glorious name,

Glorify Him with your praise!

Pass the Peace of Christ

During the song, you are invited to join the chat below the worship screen and share the Peace of Christ with one another. I would LOVE it if you would take a picture of your family worshipping at this time so that I can share those pictures online as well. You can email them or text them to me at 540 270 9177

JOY BREAK…😂

Prayer of Confession 🙏

We believe in God, who made us in His image.

We live, we love, we laugh, because we are like Him.

Lord, look into our hearts, search us as only you can and help us find your joy.

Silence

We believe in the Holy Spirit, coequal and coeternal with the Father and the Son.

Our counselor, our guide, our motivator - He is our joy!

Forgive us, Lord, when we don't claim the happiness that is rightfully ours as your children, when we forget that you will have the last laugh in this world.

Restore to us the joy of our salvation, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Assurance of Pardon                Remembering our Baptism   💦

Returning our Gifts to God

Zach Logan reminded us last week –

“Look at the birds of the air,

They do not sow or reap or store away in barns,

And yet your heavenly Father feeds them.

Are you not much more valuable than they?

Matthew 6:26

We invite you to rejoice with us in ministry by giving of your gifts and talents.

Prayers of the People and 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 debts as we forgive our debtors

Lead us not into temptation

But deliver us from evil

For thine is the Kingdom, the Glory, the Honor

Forever and ever

Amen.

Benediction
