    Nursery: Children are always welcome in the service. We do provide a nursery for newborn - 3

    years old for anyone who prefers to take their little ones there.

    Kids Own Worship is held upstairs in the youth room. It is for age 3 through 5th grade. Theywill watch Bible Story videos, enjoy popcorn, and time together. If your child wants to attend,they will dismiss during the Passing of Christs Peace together.

    The Congregation GathersWorship begins with songs and the sharing of Christs peace.

    Sharing of the WordAs a part our service today, we will share stories and read scripture.

    Todays message from Owen Cayton is The Fire of Renewalbased on Isaiah 5:1-7 and Luke 12:49-56.

    Joys, Concerns and Pastoral PrayerGods heart is always open to Gods people and so we are called together to

    lift celebrations and concerns in prayer. God joins us in our deepestmoments of pain and our greatest moments of joy...and everything in

    between. We take this time to pray for ourselves, the church, and the worldin word and song.

    The Great ThanksgivingThe Table of God is a celebration of gifts; our gifts and Gods gifts. Duringthe song, hold up your gifts of food for the food pantry and the children willgather them. Deacons will pass baskets to receive your financial gifts andofferings. All of these gifts will be brought forward and placed on the table,

    along with the bread and cup and the childrens feast.

    After the prayer of Thanksgiving, everyone is invited to come forward toreceive Gods gifts in communion. As you receive communion, you areinvited to move to the front of the sanctuary where we all stand togetherand sing John 3:16. If you are not comfortable with your children takingcommunion prior to baptism, they are invited to receive the childrens

    feast at the front of the sanctuary at the same time.

    The Congregation Scatters to ServeAt the close of worship, all are invited to commit or recommit ourselves to followingJesus. We are sent forth into the world in song, charged to be disciples in our lives.
