Worship Service 10:15am March 26, 2017 Thoughts for the Day "Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends."

~John 15:13 "God proved his love on the cross. Christ hung, and bled, and died, it was God saying to the world, 'I love you.'"

~Billy Graham "Jesus didn't say, 'I am finished.' He said, 'It is finished.' He was just getting started."

~Tony Evans "The greatest symbol of love is not the heart but the cross. Why? The heart stops beating but the man on the cross never stops loving."

~Unknown

WE GATHER IN GRATEFUL WORSHIP

Song of Gathering Glory Glory, Hallelujah

Welcome and Opening Prayer Songs of Praise

Let the River Flow Great Is Thy Faithfulness (Hymn 276)

Prayer of Confession One: Yet even now, says the Lord, return to me with all your heart. Return to the Lord your God, for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love. All: Come, let us return to the Lord; for it is he who will heal us. One: I have swept away your transgressions like a cloud, says the Lord, and your sins like a mist; return to me, for I have redeemed you. All: Gracious God, whose mercy is higher than the heavens, wider than our wanderings, and deeper than all our sin: Receive again your bewildered and broken people. Forgive our folly and our excess, our coldness to human sorrow, our passion for things of the moment. Change our hearts and turn all our desires to your way, that we may love what you love and do what you command; through Jesus Christ our Lord. One: Fellow travelers on the road to Easter, always remember that God is kind. May God’s kindness lead you to repentance. When we turn to God and confess our sins, nothing can separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. May the grace of our Lord be with you today and forevermore. All: Amen.
