PASTORAL PRAYER
Preaching of the Word Pastor Neal Ganzel Series: Christians and God’s Law Today: “Live Your Lives as Strangers in Reverent Fear” Text: Since you call on a Father who judges each man’s work impartially, live your lives as strangers here in reverent fear. For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your forefathers, but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect. NIVO 1 Peter 1:17-19
THE SACRAMENT OF THE LORD’S SUPPER Our pastor prayerfully sets the elements apart to their holy use as that which focuses our worship on the crucifixion of the Lord Jesus Christ. He distributes the grape juice and matzoth to the congregation by the hands of the Ruling Elders of the church. We partake of the elements together, so please wait until each of the elements are served.
*HYMN OF PRAISE Trinity Hymnal, No. 307 “Nothing but the Blood” Stanzas 1, 3, 4, 5*BENEDICTION “The LORD bless you and keep you; the LORD make his face shine upon you and be gracious to you; the LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace.” NIVO Nu. 6:24-26
