2 Welcome and Grace of Hospitality *Bringing In the Light of Christ and Opening Praise No. 698 God of the Ages *Call to Worship (responsively) Come rejoice, all you who love and serve the Lord! Sing songs and hymns of praise; celebrate together in God s presence! For the word of the Lord holds true forever, and everything he does is worthy of our trust. Let all the earth stand in awe of our God, for he spoke, and the world came into being; he breathed, and the heavens were born. God shatters the plans of the nations, and frustrates all their schemes. But the plans of our Maker stand firm forever; his intentions are unshakeable. Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, whose people are known by his name. Let your unfailing love surround us, O God, for our hope is in you alone. *Hymn No. 696 Prayer of Approach (in unison) America the Beautiful Lord God Almighty, you have made all the peoples of the earth for your glory, to serve you in freedom and in peace. Give to the people of our country a zeal for justice and the strength of forbearance, that we may use our liberty in accordance with your gracious will; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.

4 Morning Prayer and Lord s Prayer *Affirmation of Faith No. 881 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 Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried; the third day he rose from the dead; he ascended into heaven, and sitteth at 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 Spirit, the holy catholic church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting.
