Welcome & Announcements
Minute for Mission
Prelude "When Morning Gilds the Skies" arr. M. B. Talley
Call to Worship:
May the God of morning joy be with you.
May the God of gracious moments be with you.
Lift your hearts to God, children of love and hope.
We offer them to the One who fills us with life.
Let us sing glad praises to our God.
Our voices join all creation in glad songs. Let us worship God.
**Hymn #233 “The Day of Resurrection!”
**Affirmation of Faith
In life and death we belong to God. We trust in Jesus Christ, fully human, fully God. We trust in God, whom Jesus called Abba, Father. In sovereign love God created the world good and makes everyone equally in God’s image, of every race and people, to live in one community. We trust in God the Holy Spirit, everywhere the giver and renewer of life. With believers in every time and place, we rejoice that nothing in life or in death can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Anthem (10:15) "My Life, My All" Grace Notes Choir
Time with Young Disciples (10:15)
Scripture Acts 9: 1-20
Message
Prayers of the People with the Lord’s Prayer
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us 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 #451 “Open My Eyes, That I May See”
**Benediction
**Choral Blessing
May the road rise to meet you, may the wind blow at your back, may the sun shine warmly on your face, may the rain fall softly on your field, and, until we meet again, until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of God’s hand.
