Thank you to all who brought produce to our Harvest Table in the church this week past. Your generosity and kindness is much appreciated. These goods will be the Salvation Army for distribution to people in need in our town.

Thank you for participating in the Thankfulness Ribbon activity. If you haven’t managed into town to tie tie your ribbon you can still do so in the coming weeks. A rainbow of colours on our railings is a welcome sight expressing what you are thankful for in these these strange times for us all.

Thank you to Amy and Rachel and all the Kingz Kidz families and Trekkers who took part in the "we are thankful for..." videos project for our service today.

Order of Service Welcome Call to worship Creation sings the Father’s song; He calls the sun to wake the dawn And run the course of day Till evening comes in crimson rays.

His fingerprints in flakes of snow, His breath upon this spinning globe, He charts the eagle’s flight; Commands the newborn baby’s cry.

Hallelujah!

Let all creation stand and sing,

“Hallelujah!”

Fill the earth with songs of worship; Tell the wonders of creation’s King.

Creation gazed upon His face; The ageless One in time’s embrace Unveiled the Father’s plan Of reconciling God and man.

A second Adam walked the earth, Whose blameless life would break the curse, Whose death would set us free To live with Him eternally.

Hallelujah!

Let all creation stand and sing, “Hallelujah!”

Fill the earth with songs of worship; Tell the wonders of creation’s King.

Creation longs for His return, When Christ shall reign upon the earth; The bitter wars that rage Are birth pains of a coming age.

When He renews the land and sky, All heaven will sing and earth reply With one resplendent theme: The glory of our God and King!

Hallelujah!

Let all creation stand and sing, “Hallelujah!”

Fill the earth with songs of worship; Tell the wonders of creation’s King.

Prayers for the church, the world and others - Trekkers Thankfulness Prayer of dedication We plough the fields and scatter the good seed on the land, but it is fed and watered

by God`s almighty hand; he sends the snow in winter, the warmth to swell the grain, the breezes and the sunshine and soft refreshing rain.

All good gifts around us are sent from heaven above; then thank the Lord, O thank the Lord, for all his love.

We thank you then O Father, for all things bright and good, the seed-time and the harvest, our life, our health, our food.

Accept the gifts we offer

for all your love imparts, with what we know you long for: our humble, thankful hearts.

All good gifts around us are sent from heaven above; then thank the Lord, O thank the Lord, for all his love.

Benediction
