ASSEMBLE IN GOD’S NAME
Prelude
Bringing Our Gifts Joyful, Joyful, We Adore Thee arr. Craig Curry
Choral Introit A Mighty Fortress arr. Joel Raney
Cherub Choir, Praise Singers, Kingdom Singers,
God’s truth abideth, God’s kingdom is forever! A mighty Fortress is our God, A Bulwark never failing; Our Helper He, amid the flood Of mortal ills prevailing. For still our ancient foe Doth seek to work us woe; His craft and power are great, And, armed with cruel hate, On earth is not his equal. A mighty Fortress is our God! Congregational Introit* Christ Is Made the Sure Foundation Prayer of Adoration*
GIVE PRAISE TO GOD
Hymn of Praise** All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name #132 Lighting of the Candles/Placing the Bible Life of the Congregation** 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.

Those who are able, please stand. Ushers will seat latecomers at this time.

Peachtree Youth Choir, and the Chancel Choir
Joyful, joyful, we adore Thee, God of glory, Lord of love; Hearts unfold like flowers before Thee, opening to the sun above. Melt the clouds of sin and sadness; drive the dark of doubt away. Giver of immortal gladness, fill us with the light of day! All thy works with joy surround Thee, earth and heaven reflect Thy rays, Stars and angels sing around Thee, center of unbroken praise. Field and forest, vale and mountain, flowery meadow, flashing sea, Chanting bird and flowing fountain, call us to rejoice in Thee.

Thou art giving and forgiving, ever blessing, ever blest, Well-spring of the joy of living, ocean depth of happy rest! Thou our Father, Christ our brother, all who live in love are Thine; Teach us how to love each other, lift us to the joy divine. Congregation join in singing
Mortals, join the happy chorus which the morning stars began; Father love is reigning o’er us, brother love binds man to man. Ever singing, march we onward, victors in the midst of strife; Joyful music leads us Sunward, in the triumph song of life. Doxology* Praise God from Whom All Blessings Flow #544

“Here is a boy with five small barley loaves and two small fish, but how far will they go among so many?” — John 6:9 There’s a story in the Bible about the multiplying power of great things from humble beginnings. The funding in this story is a single lunch, brought by a poor boy, that feeds thousands of people. God desires to bless us beyond our comprehension. Even better, through the gifts of our possessions, as meager as they may be, God wants to make us channels of His power to bless others. Join in God’s work.
