We sing this right after collecting the tithes and offerings, and right before praying over them and giving thanks.

Praise God from whom all blessings flow,

Praise Him all creatures here below,

Praise Him above, ye heavenly host,

Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost!

Amen.

After the sermon or after we complete a Responsive Reading together, you'll likely hear Pastor Kathy say, "Let us now affirm our faith with 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 Pontias Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried.

On the third day He arose from the dead, He ascended into Heaven, and sits 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 church universal, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen. 

Our Father, who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name.

Thy kingodm come, Thy will be done, on Earth as it is in Heaven. 

Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us of our trespasses, as we forgive those who have trespassed against us,

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory forever. Amen. 

Happy *Birthday to you!

Happy Birthday to you!

Every day of the year

May you find Jesus near!

Happy Birthday to you!

Happy Birthday to you!

Have the best one

You've ever had!!!

*Can replace "birthday" with "anniversary"

Beloved God, who was known to our mothers and fathers,
and our spiritual forebears, have mercy on us.
We do not always love as you would have us love.
We do not always do as you would have us do.
In our stubbornness, we turn from you when we should turn toward you.

Hold us, dear One – comfort us when we mourn the passing of friends and family, and help us to know that they who believed in Your Son, are rejoicing in your presence. We praise you for the grace you shower on us, constantly forgiving our errors, especially the ones that we don’t share with any but you.

Hear now the silent fears and worries of our hearts. (A time of silence)

We Have Come Into His House
And Gathered In His Name To Worship Him.
We Have Come Into His House
And Gathered In His Name To Worship Him.

We Have Come Into His House
And Gathered In His Name To Worship
Christ The Lord.
Worship Him, Christ The Lord.

Let’s Forget About Ourselves
And Magnify His Name And Worship Him.
Let’s Forget About Ourselves
And Magnify His Name And Worship Him.

Let’s Forget About Ourselves
And Magnify His Name
And Worship Christ The Lord.
Worship Him, Christ The Lord.

[We stop here but the hymn has more verses.]

 This is the day, this is the day.
That the Lord has made, that the Lord has made.
We will rejoice, we will rejoice,
And be glad in it, and be glad in it.
This is the day that the Lord has made.
We will rejoice and be glad in it.
This is the day, this is the day
That the Lord has made.
