THE ORDER OF WORSHIP

 

ORGAN PRELUDE

INTROIT: # 328 “Surely the Presence of the Lord”

Surely the presence of the Lord is in this place; I can feel His mighty power and His grace. I can hear the brush of angels’ wings, I see glory on each face; surely the presence of the Lord is in this place.

GREETING & INTRODUCTION

PASSING OF THE PEACE

• • • • • • • • • •

*HYMN OF ADORATION: # 154

“All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name”

*CALL TO WORSHIP

See what love has been given to us, that we should be called children of God.

By this we know love, that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh, and lived and died, that God’s love might be made plain among us.

Therefore, beloved, let us not love in word or in speech, but in deed and in truth:

Because we love one another, we know that we have passed from death into life.

This is the victory that overcomes the world, through Jesus our risen Christ. Amen.
