CALL TO CONFESSION
PRAYER OF CONFESSION Holy God, hear our prayer. You have sent prophets and apostles and a savior to help us, to save us, to raise us, and our response is often to question You. Why do you work powerfully in one situation and not in another? Forgive us, we pray for our complaining. Forgive us not for our doubts, but for our limited sight. Open wide before us the vista of your grace, and the expanse of your love, and the wonder of your resurrection power. Through Christ we pray. Amen.
ASSURANCE OF PARDON
RESPONSIVE SONG NO. 354 “Just As I Am” (vs 1)

O Lamb of God, I come! I come!

Praise & Thanksgiving
FPCP is working more closely with our Presbytery and its program for the 13,000 children in foster in Michigan. Our prayer ministry can help by praying for a special child each month. We are praying for 12-year-old Jesse, who has been in the foster care system for 7 years. He likes feeling needed by others and is very helpful and caring toward them. He enjoys the outdoors, playing basketball and football, or riding his bike. When it’s time to relax, Jesse likes watching TV and movies, but he really loves to draw. This warm, caring and sensitive youngster describes himself as funny, smart and a good helper.
Church Wide Concerns
Our Deacons of the Day are: Dana Hearn and Jessie Hollingsworth Our Ushers at 9:00 are: Bev & Jerry Townes and Jack & Kiki Farrow Counting Team this week: Donna Bryden, Ted Porter and Bev Girard
