Williams INVITATION TO DISCIPLESHIP "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.

Matthew 11: (NKJV) PASTORAL REMARKS BENEDICTION 3

4 SCRIPTURE 1 Corinthians 12: (NKJV) Unity and Diversity in One Body 15 If the foot should say, Because I am not a hand, I am not of the body, is it therefore not of the body? 16 And if the ear should say, Because I am not an eye, I am not of the body, is it therefore not of the body? 17 If the whole body were an eye, where would be the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where would be the smelling? 18 But now God has set the members, each one of them, in the body just as He pleased. 19 And if they were all one member, where would the body be? 20 But now indeed there are many members, yet one body. 21 And the eye cannot say to the hand, I have no need of you ; nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you. 22 No, much rather, those members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary. 23 And those members of the body which we think to be less honorable, on these we bestow greater honor; and our unpresentable parts have greater modesty, 24 but our presentable parts have no need. But God composed the body, having given greater honor to that part which lacks it, 25 that there should be no schism in the body, but that the members should have the same care for one another. LEADER: This is the Word of God CONGREGATION: Thanks Be Unto God 4

5 RESPONSIVE READING Psalm 96: 1-6 (NKJV) LEADER: Oh, sing to the Lord a new song! Sing to the Lord, all the earth. CONG: Sing to the Lord, bless His name; Proclaim the good news of His salvation from day to day. LEADER: Declare His glory among the nations, His wonders among all peoples For the Lord is great and greatly to be praised; He is to be feared above all gods. CONG: ALL: For all the gods of the peoples are idols, But the Lord made the heavens. Honor and majesty are before Him; Strength and beauty are in His sanctuary. 5

6 BLESSED ASSURANCE Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine; Oh, what a foretaste of glory divine! Heir of salvation, purchase of God, Born of His Spirit, washed in His blood. Chorus This is my story, this is my song, Praising my Savior all the day long. This is my story, this is my song, Praising my Savior all the day long. Perfect submission, perfect delight, Visions of rapture now burst on my sight; Angels descending, bring from above Echoes of mercy, whispers of love. Perfect submission, all is at rest, I in my Savior am happy and blest; Watching and waiting, looking above, Filled with His goodness, lost in His love. 6
