WORSHIP August 7, 2011
19th SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME / Communion
THE GATHERING Bill Humphries
Leader: The Lord be with you.
People: And also with you.
THE PRELUDE Walter Huff, organist
* THE CALL TO WORSHIP
Leader: I will sing of your steadfast love, O Lord, forever,
People: With my mouth I will proclaim your faithfulness to all generations.
Leader: I declare that your steadfast love is established forever,
People: Your faithfulness is as firm as the heavens.
Leader: Let us worship the Lord our God.
- Psalm 89:1-2
* THE PROCESSIONAL HYMN 464 Joyful, Joyful, We Adore Thee
THE CALL TO CONFESSION
THE PRAYER OF CONFESSION
Merciful God, our sin is before us. Your way for us is clear: we are to love you
with all our hearts, souls, minds and strength, and our neighbors as ourselves.
Who among us may claim such love? In this calling, we have fallen short. We
need reconciliation. And yet, we remember as well that our calling to live lives of
humanity and kindness does not fail, and so we ask once more that you would
strengthen us in discipleship, guide us, and give us the courage to live as you have
called us; we ask this in the name of Jesus, and for his sake. Amen.
A MOMENT OF SILENCE (for examination of conscience and personal prayers of confession)
THE ASSURANCE OF PARDON
Leader: Should we continue in sin in order that grace may abound?
People: By no means! How can we who died to sin go on living in it?
Leader: Do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were
baptized into his death?
People: Therefore we have been buried with him by baptism into death, so that,
just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, so we
too might walk in newness of life.
Leader: Believe the promise of the gospel:
People: In Jesus Christ, we are forgiven. - Romans 6:1-4

The Lord has promised good to me, his word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be as long as life endures.
