GIVE PRAISE TO GOD
Hymn of Praise** Morning Has Broken #464 Lighting of Candles
Pastoral Prayer & The Lord’s Prayer 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 debts as we forgive our debtors, And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.
GO IN GOD’S NAME
Hymn of Response* Springs of Living Water Invitation and Benediction* Postlude Allegro from Sonata II, Felix Mendelssohn
Placing the Bible Prayer of Confession Merciful God, like the woman at the well we are thirsty people. We work hard for things that meet our physical needs, but these things alone leave us empty. Possessions and position, food and shelter — these cannot satisfy the deepest yearnings of the soul. Forgive us for neglecting the living water that comes only from you. Forgive us for chasing lesser things and expecting ultimate and lasting joy. Pour out your grace and satisfy our thirst as we continue our confession in silence…
Offering Our Gifts Set Me as a Seal Richard Nance Set me as a seal upon your heart, as a seal upon your arm; For love is strong as death, set me as a seal upon your heart. Many waters cannot quench love, neither can floods drown it. Set me as a seal upon your heart, as a seal upon your arm; For love is strong as death, set me as a seal upon your heart. —Song of Solomon 8:6–7

PLACING THE BIBLE Hyland Justice 8:45 Margaret Long 10:00 Teresa Cross 11:15
Paul was blinded, shipwrecked, thrown in jail, and so much more. In everything that happened, he told people about Jesus. What a great example of how to live UpNOut for Jesus! This past week we walked 900 kids through fun, fellowship and learning! With our guest artist, Mr. Mike, leading worship and many of our pastors sharing the gospel, we watched the kids grow in their love for the Lord.

The Peachtree Summer Fellows program is for students who are pursuing God’s calling in their lives and discerning if serving the church is where God is directing their futures. The Fellows program is framed around three values: knowing, being, and doing, which represent a holistic approach to learning, faith formation and practical experience. This is the third year of the Fellows program, which employs college and seminary students for 10-weeks of hands-on ministry. Join us in supporting these emerging leaders as we continue our commitment to raising up the next generation of Jesus followers. peachtreefellows.org Pictured from left to right: Mary Wade Ballou, Wesley Nichols, Brandon Harris, William Nichols, Kierra Payne, Sam Grisham, Jade Williford, Neale Madden
