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 trespasses,
as we forgive those
who trespass
against us. And lead us not into
temptation, but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the
kingdom and
the power and the glory forever.

Message “I Want to Be in that Number” Rev. Kathryn Graver

Remember those who have gone
before us.
