1 A Place Where Jesus Is Lord, Everyone Is Loved, and No One Stands Alone. SUNDAY WORSHIP 10:00 A.M. JUNE 3, 2018 CHILDREN & YOUTH EMPHASIS MONTH! Reverend Melvin D. Watkins, Senior Pastor Dr. James L. Netters, Pastor Emeritus 620 Parkrose Avenue + Memphis, TN

2 OUR AFFIRMATION OF FAITH I believe in God, the maker of Heaven and Earth, the ruler and preserver of our lives. I believe in Jesus Christ, the Son of God, my Lord, and Savior. I believe in the Holy Spirit, who proceeded from the Father and Son, who is the giver of life. I believe in the Bible, the Universal Church, Holy Baptism, and the Lord s Supper. I believe in the Resurrection of the dead and life in the world to come. THE LORD S SUPPER + RESPONSIVE READING 1 Corinthians 11:23-32 (NKJV) LEADER: 11:23 For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you: that the Lord Jesus on the same night in which He was betrayed took bread; CONGREGATION: 24 and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, Take, eat; this is My body which is broken for you; do this in remembrance of Me. LEADER: 25 In the same manner He also took the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me. CONGREGATION: 26 For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord s death till He comes. LEADER: 27 Therefore whoever eats this bread or drinks this cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord. CONGREGATION: 28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread and drink of the cup. LEADER: 29 For he who eats and drinks in an unworthy manner eats and drinks judgment to himself, not discerning the Lord s body. CONGREGATION: 30 For this reason many are weak and sick among you, and many sleep. 31 For if we would judge ourselves, we would not be judged. 32 But when we are judged, we are chastened by the Lord, that we may not be condemned with the world. LEADER: The Word of God, for the People of God. ALL: GLORY BE TO GOD! Our Mission The Mount Vernon Baptist Church- Westwood exists to honor God in all that we do, proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and live by the power of the Holy Spirit.
