The Lord’s Day Worship Service

October 23, 2016

Welcome: Pastor Allen Foxworth

Announcements and Prayer Concerns: Ed White

Hymn: “Open The Eyes Of My Heart Lord”

Pastoral Prayer and the Lord’s Prayer:

Pastor Allen Foxworth & Our Congregation

Our Father, which art in heaven, Hallowed be Thy

Name, Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth,

as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread,

And forgive our debts, As we forgive our debtors, And

lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil;

For Thine is the kingdom and the power,

And the glory, forever. Amen.'

Hymn: “Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus” Vs. 1&3

Responsive Reading Psalm 100:1-5 (NASB

Shout joyfully to the LORD, all the earth.

Serve the LORD with gladness;

Come before Him with joyful singing.

Know that the LORD Himself is God;

It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves;

We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.

Enter His gates with thanksgiving And His courts with

praise.

Give thanks to Him, bless His name.

For the LORD is good;

His lovingkindness is everlasting

And His faithfulness to all generations.

Hymn: “Heavenly Father, We Appreciate You” Vs. 1-3

Message: How God Sees Me (Part 4)

Pastor Allen Foxworth

Benediction:

Hymn: “Family of God” (Insert)

******Volunteers, our church could not function without the help

of our silent army of volunteers, special thanks to all who come

early to help set up the area, greet everyone, and to those angels

who bring goodies, “working behind the scenes with no

reimbursement but an occasional thank you.” We are truly blessed

by everyone who gives their time and talents performing all their

services to the Glory of Our Lord, Jesus Christ. Flowers are

provided by Pat Tutton. Goodies are provided by Sue Mitchell

and Nancy Miller. All donated monies, whether they are directly

given or placed in the offering plates are used for Board approved

MFL Church service projects, charities, church fellowship time,

equipment, and items for worship services.

“Open The Eyes Of My Heart Lord”

(Please join together, and sing

the words printed on the screen)

“Family of God”

Chorus:

I’m so glad I’m a part of the family of God, I’ve been

washed in the fountain, Cleansed by His blood! Joint

heirs with Jesus as we travel this sod, For I’m part of

the family, The family of God.

You will notice we say brother And sister ‘round here—

It’s because we’re a family And these folks are so near;

When one has a heartache, We all share the tears, And

rejoice in each victory In this family so dear.

(Repeat chorus)

“SPECIAL ANNOUNCMENT”

The Election of New MFL Board Members Each year during the months of October and November we

ask our congregation by paper ballet to nominate people to

serve on the MFL Church Board, reelecting or replacing a

present member whose term is expiring. Once nominations

are received, the actual voting takes place in mid-

November. Due to the board’s normal rotation, this year

we will have 3 positions requiring a vote as Gay Connors’,

Sue Montgomery’s, and JoAnn Thompson’s terms are

expiring.

If you know of someone, including yourself, who you feel

would be an asset in the guidance of our church, forms are

placed on the back table each Sunday starting October

23,rd through the third Sunday in November. Any member

whose term is expiring, is eligible to be nominated to serve

another term. Once the votes are tallied, the people with

the most nominations will be asked to serve.

Our Board meets on the 3rd Monday of the month, to

oversee the working operations of our church.

The only requirements are the person nominated believes

and endorses these two doctrines: the Bible is the word of

God, and belief in Jesus Christ is the only way to salvation.

robe, wrapped a towel around His waist, and poured water

into a basin. Then He began to wash the disciples’ feet and

to wipe them with the towel He had around Him… ‘I have
