PRAYER TIME AND 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 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. Amen.

* OPENING HYMN

When Morning Gilds the Skies | No. 185 * AFFIRMATION OF FAITH (based on Philippians 2)

Rev. David Williamson (8:15, 9:30AM) Rev. Jamalyn Peigh Williamson (11AM) Leader: If there is any encouragement in Chirst,

any comfort from love,

any participation in the Spirit,

any affection and sympathy, All: Let us strive to be of the same mind,

having the same love,

being in full accord and of one mind.

Leader: Do nothing from rivalry or conceit, but

in humility count others more significant

than yourselves.

All: Let each of us look not only to our own

interests, but also to the interests of others.

Leader: Have this mind among yourselves,

which is yours in Christ Jesus All: Who, though he was in the form of God,

did not count equality with God a thing to be

grasped, but made himself nothing, taking

the form of a servant, being made in human

likeness. And being found in human

form, he humbled himself by becoming

obedient to the point of death, even death

on a cross.

Leader: Therefore God has highly exalted him

and bestowed on him the name that is above

every name, All: So that at the name of Jesus every knee

should bow, in heaven and on earth and under

the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus

Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Amen. * GLORY TO GOD

DID YOU KNOW?

… that there are always large print bulletins available for any Sunday Worship service? Just request one from any usher and they will be happy to get one for you!

… that we have several donation locations in our building where you can leave items on any given Sunday? We are always collecting food and personal care items for Crooked Creek Food Pantry as well as gently-used clothing and household items for Fletcher Place Community Center. Place donations for the food pantry in the wooden bins at the north and south ends of the West Passage. Red canvas bags are available to take home and fill and when brought back, can be placed in the bins. Items for Fletcher Place may be placed in the large bin next to the men’s Java Joe cart outside of Robertson Chapel.

…

that a fall ministry catalog will be available on Sunday, August 7? It is a new publication overflowing with information about all the great classes, groups and activities going on at St. Luke’s this fall. Be sure to join us that Sunday to get all the information on how you can connect and grow at St. Luke’s in the coming months!

… that we have a Prayer Chapel in St. Luke’s?

It is open from 8:30AM – 5PM every weekday and is located at the southwest corner of the building if you are looking for a quiet respite during your busy day and want to spend some quiet time alone with God. It can be accessed from either inside or outside of the building.

… that we have a Recycling Center where we collect many things for recycling: batteries, plastic gift cards, eyeglasses, hearing aids, ink cartridges and cell phones? It is located in Central Passage, just east of the main entrance to Robertson Chapel.
