Jesus love the nations fires, Sets the kingdoms on a blaze: To bring fire on earth He came; Kindled in some hearts it is: O that all might catch the flame, All partake the glorious bliss! When He first the work begun, Small and feeble was His day: Now the word doth swiftly run; Now it wins its widening way: More and more it spread and grows, Ever mighty to prevail; Sin s strongholds it now o erthrows, Shakes the trembling gates of hell. Sons of God, your Savior praise! He the door hath opened wide! He hath given the word of grace, Jesus word is glorified; Jesus, mighty to redeem, He alone the work hath wrought; Worthy is the work of Him, Him Who spake a world from naught. Saw ye not the cloud arise, Little as a human hand? Now it spreads along the skies, Hangs o er all the thirsty land: Lo! the promise of a shower
3 Drops already from above; But the Lord will shortly pour All the spirit of His love. CHORAL INTROIT: Majesty The Georgetown Circuit Choir CALL TO WORSHIP M: Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God almighty C: Come, Holy Spirit and breath afresh upon us M: Holy, Holy, Holy, all the saints adore thee C: Come Holy Spirit, and unite us M: Divine advocate we seek a fresh anointing C: Holy Spirit breath your wind of change and transformation in your church M: The Lord reigns, let the earth rejoice C: We shall be glad and wait for his word INVOCATION God of wind, word and fire, we bless your name this day for sending the light and strength of your Holy Spirit. We give you thanks for the gifts, great and small, that you have poured out upon your children. Accept us with our gifts to be living praise and witness to your love throughout all the earth; through Jesus Christ, who lives with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, forever, Amen. HYMN Come Holy Ghost, our Hearts Inspire, VIP # 149 Come, Holy Ghost, our hearts inspire, let us thine influence prove; source of the old prophetic fire, fountain of life and love. Come, Holy Ghost for moved by thee the prophets wrote and spoke, unlock the truth, thyself the key, unseal the sacred book. Expand thy wings, celestial Dove, brood o'er our nature's night; on our disordered spirits move,
4 and let there now be light. God, through himself we shall know if thou within us shine, and sound, with all thy saints below, the depths of love divine. THE COLLECT FOR PURITY Let us all pray: ALMIGHTY GOD, to whom all hearts are open, all desires known and from whom no secrets are hid: cleanse the thoughts of our hearts by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, that we may perfectly love you and worthily magnify your holy name; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. PRAYER OF CONFESSION AND ASSURANCE OF FORGIVENESS O holy and merciful God, we confess that we have not always taken upon ourselves the yoke of obedience, nor been willing to seek and to do your perfect will. We have not loved you with all our heart and mind and soul and strength neither have we loved our neighbours as ourselves. You have called to us in the need of our sisters and brothers, and we have passed unheeding on our way. In the pride of our hearts, and our unwillingness to repent, we have turned away from the cross of Christ, and have grieved your Holy Spirit. (Silent Prayer) L: Hear the words of assurance and justification. Christ Jesus has heard your confession and he is able, faithful and just and has forgiven us from all unrighteousness. P: Amen, hallelujah, Amen HYMN: The Holy Ghost Power is Moving. VIP # 158 The Holy Ghost power is moving just like a magnet The Holy Ghost power is moving just like a magnet It s moving here, moving there, just like the day of Pentecost The Holy Ghost power moving just like a magnet The Holy Ghost power is moving all through the nations; The Holy Ghost power is moving all through the nations; It wins some here, wins some there, Saving them from sin and fear. The Holy Ghost power is moving all through the nations.
5 The Holy Ghost power is moving here in our worship; The Holy Ghost power is moving here in our worship; It s prompting here, prompting there, to bring our lives to Jesus Christ. The Holy Ghost power is moving here in our worship. WELCOME Rev. Glenna Spencer (Guyana District President) INTRODUCTIONS Revd. Patmore C.

9 NOTICES & OFFERTORY PRAYER PRAISE: God and God Alone Georgetown Circuit Choir INTRODUCTION OF MR. QUINCY BOURNE, NEW CONNEXIONAL TREASUER CITATION TO REV D DR. CLAUDE CADOGAN, OD THE INTERCESSORY PRAYERS Rev d Roosvelt Papaloute Leader: Let us pray for the Church throughout the world. Dear Father, you established the church to continue the mission of Jesus Christ throughout the world; grant that she may be found faithful in the proclamation of the good news to the poor, to those in captivity, to the bruised and broken hearted and that the oppressed are redeemed from the ways of wickedness, and sinners are converted to you. People: Bless our bishop, all Pastors and congregations with your truth and grace, and pour out your Holy Spirit upon your whole church that she may manifest your love, unity, holiness, and faithfulness through Jesus Christ our Lord; Amen. Minister: Let us pray for the peoples of the Caribbean region. O God, our region is naturally divided by land and sea. Our people are divided by our selfishness, vindictiveness, and hatred. Your people in this region suffer injustice and humiliation, and the influence of powerful external forces often denying us the privilege of self- determination and true development. People: Merciful God, give wisdom and grace to all leaders, and grant them a love for righteousness, truth and justice. Amen
10 Leader: Let us pray for the weak and vulnerable. O Lord, our God, we pray for those who are weak in mind, body and Spirit; for those who are weak in the faith, for children, widows and orphans; for the sick and disabled, and for victims of accident, drugs, and violence. People: Lord Jesus, in your mercy and love, bless all who are weak and vulnerable. Be their protector and guide, their strength and salvation. Give them a sense of your eternal presence, and through the strength of your Spirit, give them the conquering faith, hope and love; for your Name's sake. Amen. Connexional Bishop: Let us pray for the people called Methodists. O Almighty God, through your Holy Spirit you raised the people called Methodists to reform nations and to spread scriptural holiness throughout the world. And, in your providence and power, you called into being the Conference of the Methodist Church in the Caribbean and the Americas to be your special servant in this region. People: Grant, O Lord that each congregation remains faithful to its calling and is courageous in doing your will. Dear God, order the lives of the laity and clergy that your glory and power may be made manifest in all that we do through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. The Lord's Prayer [Sung - Joseph Lees] OUR FATHER, which art in heaven; Hallowed be thy name, Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; And forgive us our trespasses As we forgive them that trespass against us; And lead us not Into temptation, But deliver us from evil. For thine Is the kingdom, and the power and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen
11 THE SACRAMENT OF THE LORD S SUPPER The Peace The Service will begin with the Passing of the Peace - an opportunity for those who do not wish to share to withdraw quietly while an Organ Voluntary is being played. The Minister shall commence: If you are offering your gift upon the altar and there remember that your brother or sister has a grievance against you, leave your gift before the altar and go your way. First be reconciled with your brother or sister and then come and offer your gift. (Matt 5: 23-24) The Peace of the Lord be always with you. And also with you. The Peace shall be passed throughout the congregation, each one greeting his neighbour with the words of Peace. THE COMMUNION HYMN 428 VIP I am not worthy Holy Lord... I am not worthy, holy Lord, I am not worthy; yet, my God, That Thou shouldst come to me; How can I say Thee nay; Speak but the word; one Thee, who didst give Thy flesh gracious word and blood Can set the sinner free. My ransom price to pay? I am not worthy; cold and bare The lodging of my soul; How canst Thou deign to enter there? Lord, speak, and make me whole. O come! in this sweet morning hour Feed me with food divine; And fill with all Thy love and power This worthless heart of mine. The Thanksgiving The Lord be with you. And also with you. Lift up your hearts. We lift them up unto the Lord.
12 Let us give thanks to the Lord, our God. It is right and fitting so to do. It is a good and pleasant thing, joyful and salutary, always and everywhere, to give you thanks and praise, Lord God, Ever-living, Ever- Blessed, Almighty, All-loving. Through Jesus Christ, your only Son our Lord, You created all things and made us in your image. And when we had fallen into sin, You gave him to be our Saviour. He shared our human nature and lived a fully human life. He suffered rejection and condemnation, and died on the cross. You raised him up from the dead, and you exalted him to the glory of your right hand, Where he reigns forever as priest and king and makes intercession for us. In witness of his glory and honour, you poured out the Holy Spirit, Building up many people into one Body, Making us living members of your holy Church, And enabling us to stand before you to sing your praises and celebrate your mighty acts. Therefore with angels and archangels and with all the company of heaven, we join the hymn of everlasting praise; Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God of Hosts, Heaven and earth are full of your glory, Hosanna in the highest, Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, Hosanna in the highest. Blessed are you, Lord God, King of the Universe, And blessed is your Son Jesus Christ our Lord; Who, on the night in which he was betrayed, Took bread into his holy hands and looking up to heaven, Gave thanks, broke it and gave it to his disciples saying, "Take this and eat it. This is My Body given for you. Do this in remembrance of me. In the same way, after the supper, he took the cup, gave thanks and gave it to them saying, "Drink from it, all of you. This is My Blood of the new covenant poured out for you and for many, for the forgiveness of sins.
13 Do this whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me. Christ has died! Christ is risen! Christ will come again! Therefore, Father, in obedience to his command, we do this in remembrance of him, praying that you will accept our sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving. Grant that, by the power of the Holy Spirit, we who receive your gifts of bread and wine may share in the Body and Blood of Christ, and become united with him. And, as we offer ourselves to you as a living sacrifice, we pray that you will bring us with your whole creation to your heavenly kingdom. This we pray through Jesus Christ, our Lord. To whom with you, 0 Father, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, be all honour and glory from all who dwell on earth and in heaven throughout the ages of ages. Amen. The Action of the Bread and the Wine The Minister breaking the Bread shall say: The Bread which we break is a sharing in the Body of Christ. Amen. and raising the Cup shall continue The Cup of Blessing which we bless is a sharing in the Blood of Christ. Amen. Though we are many we are one Body because we share the one loaf and partake of the same drink. The Minister kneeling and the people bowed, silence shall be kept for a space. Then the Minister and people shall say together:
14 LORD, we come to your table, trusting in your mercy and not in any goodness of our own. We are not worthy to gather up the crumbs under your table, but it is your nature always to have mercy, and on that we depend. So feed us with the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ, your Son, that we may for ever live in him and he in us. Amen. The Minister, having taken the Bread and Wine, shall also give them to those who are assisting and then invite the people as follows: You who truly and sincerely repent of your sins, are in love and charity with your neighbours and have resolved to lead a new life following the commandments of God and by the power of the Spirit, walking in his holy ways, draw near with faith, receive the Body of our Lord Jesus Christ which was given for you and his Blood which was shed for you, and feed on him in your hearts by faith with thanksgiving. As the bread is shared among the people these words shall be spoken: The Body of our Lord Jesus Christ which was given for you, keep you in eternal life. Take and eat this in remembrance that Christ died for you and feed on him in your heart by faith with thanksgiving. As the cup is given these words shall be spoken: The Blood of our Lord Jesus Christ which was shed for you, keep you in eternal life. Drink this in remembrance that Christ's blood was shed for you and be thankful. After all have partaken, the Minister shall cover the Table and what remains of the Elements with the Cloth and after silent prayer he may offer prayer in his own words always ending with the following, the people joining: (and) we thank you, Lord, that you have fed us in this Sacrament, united us with Christ, and given us a foretaste of the heavenly banquet prepared for all mankind. Amen.
15 THE FINAL PRAYER Connexional Bishop: People: Now let your people in all places be committed to reconciliation and peace, so that the seeds of national arrogance, intolerance, prejudice and fear, which can so readily grow into the horror of war, may find no welcome in our lands. In all our nations: let there be victories over poverty and greed; let there be victories over anger and bigotry; let there be victories over pain and disease; let there be victories over despair and apathy. In addition, may you, our God, reign forever and ever, and the kingdoms of this world become the places where your victory is recognized. Through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen. RECESSIONAL HYMN: Father, Son and Holy Ghost, VIP # 307 Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, One in Three, and Three in One, As by the celestial host, Let thy will on earth be done; Praise by all to thee be given, Glorious Lord of earth and heaven. Vilest of the sinful race, Lo! I answer to thy call; Meanest vessel of thy grace, Grace divinely free for all, Lo! I come to do thy will, All thy counsel to fulfil. If a sinner such as I May to thy great glory live, All my actions sanctify, All my words and thoughts receive; Claim me for thy service, claim All I have and all I am.
16 Take my soul and body s powers; take my memory, mind, and will, All my goods, and all my hours, All I know, and all I feel, All I think, or speak, or do; Take my heart, but make it new. Now, O God, thine own I am, Now I give thee back thine own; Freedom, friends, and health, and fame Consecrate to thee alone: Thine I live, thrice happy I; Happier still if thine I die. Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, One in Three, and Three in One, As by the celestial host, Let thy will on earth be done; Praise by all to thee be given, Glorious Lord of earth and heaven. BLESSING AND DISMISSAL Connexional Bishop Lord, this day you have healed us and restored us. You have given us new strength and courage to serve you in this world. Now we go in peace and confidence, ready to be your people in all places and at all times. Praise be to you, Mighty God of love and mercy! AMEN.
