Welcome!
We extend a special welcome to our guests, visitors and all who
join us in worship today. Please let us know of your
presence or any prayer requests you have by filling out one of
the cards in the pew rack and placing them in the offering
plate. We hope that our church home becomes your church home and
the spiritual place where you grow through the
Word of God.
Nursery care for children up to three years old is located on
the main floor of the Welcome Center across from the library.
Older children attending the church service are encouraged to
borrow a Toddler Tote filled with activities as you enter the
Sanctuary.
Concerning the Sacrament of the Altar
We believe that Jesus offers Himself to us in the Sacrament His
true body and blood, for the forgiveness of sins. We also share the
scriptural concern for those who participate in the Lords supper
that they recognize what they are receiving
(1 Corinthians 11:27). Therefore, we ask that all who desire to
receive the Lords Supper please carefully examine themselves using
the communion information card found in the pew rack.
Communion is celebrated on the 1st and 3
rd Sundays at both services.
For those who desire, we offer gluten-free wafers
(please indicate your desire to the Pastor or Elder) and
non-alcoholic wine (located in the rose colored cups in the
center of the individual cup tray).

CONFESSION
P: Most merciful God,
C: we confess that we are by nature sinful and unclean. We have
sinned against You in thought, word, and deed,
by what we have done and by what we have left undone. We have
not loved You with our whole heart; we
have not loved our neighbors as ourselves. We justly deserve
Your present and eternal punishment. We
deserve the death that our sin has wrought. For the sake of Your
Son, Jesus Christ, have mercy on us.
Forgive us, renew us, and lead us, so that we may delight in
Your will and walk in Your ways to the glory of
Your holy name. Amen.

Revelation Study Join Vicar Mike this summer for an in-depth
study of The Revelation to John. Many Christians are
intimidated or scared by the book of Revelation, but it is a
beautiful book full of encouragement and hope for God's
persecuted and oppressed people. We will read through the book,
discuss its background, imagery, purpose, and do some
comparisons of the different views of the end times. Join us
during the Bible Study hour (9:30-10:30) this summer and be
encouraged by God's promises in Jesus Christ. (Loomis
Center)
The Grace and Truth Paradox Our world today needs grace. But our
world also needs truth. This study, written by Randy Alcorn will
help reveal the meanings of grace and truth in Gods Word and will
illustrate the way Jesus balanced these qualities as He related to
people. This class is led by Alan Bishop, Pat Croll, Tina
Hergenrader and Nelson Scroggins.
