Fourteenth Sunday after Penticost
August 17, 2008



Welcome! We thank God for bringing you here this morning
We pray that you hear the good news that through Jesus Christ
you have been reconciled to God!

  

Prelude                                                                                                                              Priscilla Silver               

 
Invocation
Confession and Absolution                                                                          P: Pastor C: Congregation

P:   If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

C:   But if we confess our sins, God who is faithful and just, will forgive our sins and cleanse us

       from all unrighteousness.

 

Silence for reflection and for self-examination.

 

P:   Let us confess our sins to God our Father.

C:  Most merciful God, we confess that we are by nature sinful and unclean. We have sinned

      against You in thought, word, and deed, by what we have done and by what we have left

      undone. We have not loved You with our whole heart; we have not loved our neighbors as

      ourselves. We justly deserve Your present and eternal punishment. For the sake of Your Son,

     Jesus Christ, have mercy on us. Forgive us, renew us, and lead us, so that we may delight in

      Your will and walk in Your ways to the glory of Your holy name. Amen.

 

P:   In the mercy of Almighty God, Jesus Christ was given to die for us, and for His sake God forgives

       us all our sins. To those who believe in Jesus Christ He give the power to become the children of

       God and bestows on them the Holy Spirit. May the Lord, who has begun this good work in us,

       bring it  to completion in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

C:    Amen.

"On My Knees Many Times Many Days"                                                                     Pastor Ken Caudill

 
 
Apostles’ Creed
I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth.
 

I believe in Jesus Christ his only Son our Lord. He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried. He descended into hell. On the third day he rose again. He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of the Father.   He will come again to judge the living and the dead.

 

I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Christian Church, 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 kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who 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 forever and ever. Amen.
