We welcome you warmly to Trinity Presbyterian Church where we strive to be faithful disciples of Jesus Christ. We are especially thankful for visitors, and we are grateful to be able to worship in person again. All service liturgy is projected onto the screen, but you’re welcome to use the pew Bible or hymnal when referenced. If you have trouble hearing clearly, there are hearing devices that could be obtained from one of the ushers. We are currently livestreaming our worship services for those who are not able to be with us in person. Please also feel free to invite others to worship with us online. You may access our livestreaming on YouTube on Sunday or recordings afterwards. Please go to the church website (trinitypc.org) for the direct link. During this period, baskets will be placed in the narthex for your offering. As an alternative, you may also give online directly by either going to the church website and clicking on the green “GIVE NOW” button, or scan the QR code here on the right with your smart phone. The Season after Pentecost, also called Ordinary Time, begins the day after Pentecost and ends the day before the First Sunday of Advent. It may include twenty-three to twenty-eight Sundays, depending on the date of Easter, but the first Sunday is always Trinity Sunday, and the last Sunday is always the Sunday of the Reign of Christ or Christ the King. Although the scripture lessons in the lectionary for this half of the year go in a semi-continuous cycle through books of the Bible rather than follow a theme, the gospel lessons cover Jesus’ teaching ministry and the church’s mission in the world. The liturgical color for this season is GREEN, signifying growth in Christ, except on Communion Sundays when it is white.

Call to Worship (adapted from Joachim Neander, 1680)
Praise to the Lord, the Almighty, the King of creation! O my soul, praise him, for he is our health and salvation! Praise to the Lord, above all things so wondrously reigning; sheltering us under his wings, and so gently sustaining! Come, all who hear; now to his temple draw near, join us in glad adoration!

Prayer of Adoration Elder Becky Hague
MAKING OUR CONFESSION Call to Confession
Prayer of Confession Holy, triune God: We confess we have not always lived for your glory — You claim us as your people, but we often seek out other saviors; you welcome us into your house, but we bring conflict and division.
Forgive us, God of grace. Restore and rebuild us so that we may be ready to live in the eternal home you promise; through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Silent Reflection (Reflecting on the Prayer of Confession)
Assurance of Pardon . . . Friends, believe the Good News. In Jesus Christ we are forgiven. Thanks be to God. Amen.

What Happened on This Day in Christian History
Philip William Otterbein was baptized on June 6, 1726, as an infant in Germany. Later, at age 26, Otterbein felt called to immigrate to America to do missionary work. He became a noted pioneer pastor to Germans in America and the father of the Church of the United Brethren in Christ (later part of the Evangelical United Brethren
Church and now a part of the United Methodist Church). John Wesley preached on his father’s tombstone at Epworth, England, on this day in 1742, to a “vast multitude gathered from all parts.” Remembering the harsh and disappointing times his father, a local minister, had endured in Epworth, Wesley wrote: “O let none think
his labor of love is lost because the fruit does not immediately appear.” June 6, 1844, marks the founding of the YMCA in London under the leadership of a local merchant named George Williams who had conducted weekly meetings of prayer and Bible study for young men. The original purpose of London’s YMCA was “to seek
to win over young men to the faith and love of Jesus Christ.” June 6, 1882, is the
date of the composition of “O Love that Wilt Not Let Me Go” by George Matheson. H. C. Dillon and his new wife, Margaret, went to Central America as missionaries. When Dillon died of yellow fever, Margaret remained in Honduras, training local evangelists. Fifteen years passed without a furlough, then she planned a trip home. While packing, she was stricken with yellow fever and was carried 36 miles to a missions station, arriving on June 6, 1913. She died two days later.
