WORSHIP NOVEMBER 3, 2013

Drew Stockstill Leader: The Lord be with you.
People: And also with you.
THE PRELUDE Deck Thyself My Soul with Gladness Johannes Brahms Sarah Martin, organist
THE INTROIT Lord I Praise You Sandy Wilkinson Youth Ensemble (Rebecca Shipley, director)
* THE CALL TO WORSHIP
Leader: Lord, you have been our dwelling place in all generations. People: Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever you had formed the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting, you are God. Leader: You turn us back to dust, and say, ‘Turn back, you mortals.’ For a thousand years in your sight are like yesterday when it is past, or like a watch in the night. People: The days of our life are seventy years, or perhaps eighty, if we are strong; even then, their span is only toil and trouble, they are soon gone, and we fly away. Leader: Let us worship the eternal God, Father, Son and Holy Ghost. Amen. - Psalm 90:1-4,10
* THE PROCESSIONAL HYMN 376 Love Divine, All Loves Excelling
THE CALL TO CONFESSION
THE PRAYER OF CONFESSION Eternal God, it is in you that my being rests. It is you who have made me, you who sustained me all the days of my life; it is in you that I trust in death. I read from the pages of scripture that I am fearfully and wonderfully made. I hear the words of Jesus telling me to come to him when I am weary and carrying heavy burdens. I am blessed. And yet, O Lord, I need more. I have sinned and I need your redemptive power. I need forgiveness. So reach out to me once more, I pray, and lead me in the way everlasting, for I pray it in the name of my Lord Jesus Christ, in whom I trust. Amen
A MOMENT OF SILENCE (for examination of conscience and personal prayers of confession)
THE ASSURANCE OF PARDON
Leader: Jesus said, “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.” People: Jesus said, “I am the good shepherd. I know my own and my own know me, just as the Father knows me and I know the Father. And I lay down my life for the sheep.” Leader: Believe the promise of the Gospel: People: In Jesus Christ, we are forgiven. - John 10:11,14
* THE CONGREGATIONAL RESPONSE (Hymn 473) For the joy of human love, brother, sister, parent, child, friends on earth, and friends above, for all gentle thoughts and mild, Lord of all to thee we raise this our hymn of grateful praise.
