WORSHIP MAY 18, 2008
TRINITY SUNDAY
Thank you for making sure your cell phone is off during the worship hour.
THE PRELUDE Draw Us in the Spirit's Tether arr. Gerre Hancock
Jeremy Rush, guest organist/choirmaster
* THE CALL TO WORSHIP Bill Humphries
Leader: O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!
People: When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars that you have established;
Leader: What are human beings that you are mindful of them, mortals that
you care for them?
All: O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the
earth. -from Psalm 8
* THE PROCESSIONAL HYMN 459 Father, We Praise Thee
THE CALL TO CONFESSION
THE PRAYER OF CONFESSION
God of grace, love, and communion, we confess that we have
failed to love you with all our heart, soul, and mind; and to love
our neighbor as ourselves. We ignore your commandments, stray
from your way, and follow other gods.
Have mercy on us. Forgive our sin and raise us to new life, that
we may serve you faithfully and give honor to your holy name.
Amen.
A MOMENT OF SILENCE (for examination of conscience and personal prayers of confession)
THE ASSURANCE OF PARDON
* THE CONGREGATIONAL RESPONSE (Hymn 417)
Laud and honor to the Father, laud and honor to the Son, laud and
honor to the Spirit, ever three and ever one; One in might and one in
glory while unending ages run.
* THE PEACE OF CHRIST
(Children are always welcome in the Sanctuary during worship. Should you find that your child grows restless,
there is child care available. Infants are cared for in the Nursery in Room 105, toddlers 18 months through two
years in Room112. Children ages 2-11 are invited to leave after the Peace for special classes. Preschoolers are

Andrew Sudduth, soloist

THE SERMON "Three In One" Joanna Adams

II Corinthians 13:!3
* THE HYMN 306 Fairest Lord Jesus
* THE NICENE CREED (Ecumenical)
We believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty, maker of heaven
and earth, of all that is, seen and unseen.
We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, eternally
begotten of the Father, God from God, Light from Light, true God from
true God, begotten, not made, of one Being with the Father; through him
all things were made. For us and for our salvation he came down from
heaven, was incarnate of the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary and became
truly human. For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate; he
suffered death and was buried. On the third day he rose again in
accordance with the Scriptures; he ascended into heaven and is seated on
the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the
living and the dead, and his kingdom will have no end.
We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds
from the Father [and the Son], who with the Father and the Son is
worshiped and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets. We
believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church. We acknowledge one
baptism for the forgiveness of sins. We look for the resurrection of the
dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen.
THE 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; and lead
us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom
and the power and the glory, forever. Amen
