GATHERING

PRELUDE               "Shout to the Lord"                      arr. Stan Pethel

WELCOME

          We're so glad you're here. If you're a visitor, relax. We won't ask you to stand up and introduce yourself or anything uncomfortable like that. (If you are new to St Andrew's and are interested in joining the church, simply talk to Pastor Beth.)

            If children are with you: That's wonderful! Jesus loves children and so do we. Feel free to sit near the front so they can see and hear everything. If you like, we keep quiet activities for them in bags near the sanctuary doors. We do provide a staffed nursery. To reach our nursery, turn left after leaving the sanctuary, turn left again when you reach the hallway. Turn right and the nursery is on your left.

            What we ask: Please fill out the Friendship Pad passed during the offering time in the service just so we know a little about who has come today.

            Fellowship: Join us for fellowship and goodies in the Fellowship Hall following the worship service. To get there, turn left after leaving the sanctuary; it's at the end of the long hallway.

            Assistance: Hearing Assistance Devices are available for your use; please ask an usher if you would like one.

CONFESSION & FORGIVENESS

P:     Trusting in the word of life given in baptism, we are gathered in the name of the Father, and of the + Son, and of the Holy Spirit.

C:    Amen.

P:     Let us confess our sin in the presence of God and of one another.

Silence is kept for reflection.

P:     Merciful God.

C:    We have sinned against you in thought, word, and deed, and are not worthy to be called your children.  Have mercy on us and turn us from our sinful ways.  Bring us back to you as those who once were dead but now have life, through our Savior Jesus Christ.  Amen

P:     The Lord is gracious and full of compassion, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.  Through the Holy Spirit, God gives life, freedom from the power of sin and resurrection from the dead.  In the name of  + Jesus Christ, your sins are forgiven.  Live in newness of life.

C:    Amen.
