INVOCATION
CALL TO WORSHIP
It is truly good and right,
with all the powers of our heart and mind, to praise you, Father,
and your only-begotten Son,
our Lord Jesus Christ.
Dear Father, by your wondrous condescension of loving-kindness
toward us your servants,
you gave up your Son.
Dear Jesus, you paid the debt of Adam
for us to the eternal Father
by your blood poured forth
in loving-kindness.
You cleared away the darkness of sin
by your magnificent and
radiant resurrection.
You broke the bonds of death
and rose from the grave as a conqueror.
You reconciled heaven and earth.
Our life had no hope of eternal happiness before you redeemed us.
Your resurrection has washed away our sins, restored our innocence, and brought us joy.
You are worthy of all glory, honor and praise. Amen.
“Great Jehovah”
CONFESSION OF FAITH
Together: We believe
Leader: That the Lord Jesus of very love did become man, to be made like humanity in all except sin;
Together: We believe
Leader: That the Lord Jesus came in this humanity to receive the punishments
of our transgressions and by his death
to make satisfaction to God’s justice;
Together: We believe
Leader: That by his resurrection the Lord
Jesus destroyed the hold of death
on the world, bringing again life to
this world from which the whole offspring
of Adam was justly exiled.
Together: We believe
Leader: No creature is able to comprehend
the length and breadth, the depth and height, of that most excellent love which
moved God to show mercy, where none was deserved, to promise and give life,
where death had gotten the victory, to rescue people in his grace.
Together: We believe! Praise be to God! Amen!

GREETINGS AND ANNOUNCEMENTS
PASTORAL PRAYER
Scripture | Luke 10:38-42
Martha and Mary
38 Now as they went on their way, Jesus[a] entered a village. And a woman named Martha welcomed him into her house. 39 And she had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord's feet and listened to his teaching. 40 But Martha was distracted with much serving. And she went up to him and said, “Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Tell her then to help me.” 41 But the Lord answered her, “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things, 42 but one thing is necessary.[b] Mary has chosen the good portion, which will not be taken away from her.”
