* THE CALL TO WORSHIP Christopher Henry
Leader: The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?
People: The Lord is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be
afraid?
Leader: One thing have I asked of the Lord, that will I seek after;
People: That I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my
life,
Leader: To behold the beauty of the Lord,
People: And to inquire in his temple.
All: We will sing and make melody to the Lord.
-From Psalm 27
* THE PROCESSIONAL HYMN 139 Come, Thou Almighty King
THE CALL TO CONFESSION
THE PRAYER OF CONFESSION
Merciful God, we confess that we have sinned against you in thought, word,
and deed. We have not loved you with our whole heart and mind and strength;
we have not loved our neighbors as ourselves.
In your mercy forgive what we have been, help us amend what we are, and
direct what we shall be, so that we may delight in your will and walk in your
ways, to the glory of 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 276)
Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth,
thine own dear presence to cheer and to guide;
Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow,
blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside!
Great is Thy faithfulness! Great is Thy faithfulness!
Morning by morning new mercies I see;
All I have needed Thy hand hath provided;
Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord unto me!
* THE PEACE OF CHRIST

THE RECEPTION OF NEW MEMBERS
THE SACRAMENT OF BAPTISM
Leader: This child has now been received into the one holy catholic and apostolic church
through baptism. God has made her a member of the household of God. See what love
the Father has for us, that we should be called children of God, and so we are. Let us
welcome the newly baptized.
People: With joy and thanksgiving we welcome this child into Christ's
church. We are the family of God for we are all one in Christ.

* THE HYMN (see insert) Be Still My Soul
* THE APOSTLES' CREED
I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth,
And in Jesus Christ his only Son our Lord; who was conceived by the
Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was
crucified, dead, and buried; he descended into hell; the third day he rose
again from the dead; he ascended into heaven, and sitteth on the right
hand of God the Father Almighty; from thence he shall come to judge the
quick and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Ghost; the holy catholic church; the communion
of saints; the forgiveness of sins; the resurrection of the body; and the life
everlasting. 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.
