Leader: Ascribe to the Lord, you heavenly beings, ascribe to the Lord glory and strength. People: Ascribe to the Lord the glory due His name; worship the Lord in the splendor of His holiness. Leader: The voice of the Lord is over the waters, the God of glory thunders, the Lord thunders over the mighty waters. People: The voice of the Lord is powerful; the voice of the Lord is majestic!

Loving Father: all the fancy words in the world, expressed with eloquent words, decorated with emotion, spoken with conviction, cannot compete with a heartfelt “sorry” when all other words fail. Sometimes “sorry” is all the heart can bear to say aloud. Only you can read and understand the language of our hearts, only you can translate our “sorry” into the prayer we would have prayed. Then you forgive and surround us in an embrace of love and peace. Thank you, loving Father, for listening to our hearts as well as our voices.

CHILDREN’S SUNDAY SCHOOL

8:45 to 11:30 am - Nursery available for children birth thru age 2. A Family Room” is also available on the right side of the Sanctuary.

During the school year, children join their families in the Sanctuary for a time of worship at both 9:00 and 10:35 services before proceeding downstairs after “Learning with our Children” time. A parent, grandparent, or guardian needs to sign each child in (registration sheet in the main hallway outside the Sanctuary doors) and out (downstairs in Fellowship Hall).

On 1st Sundays, our Preschool thru 5th graders will return to the Sanctuary with their leaders to sit with their families for Communion. The sign-out sheet will be on the cart outside the center Sanctuary doors.

Ezekiel 36:16-21 16 The word of the Lord came to me: 17Mortal, when the house of Israel lived on their own soil, they defiled it with their ways and their deeds; their conduct in my sight was like the uncleanness of a woman in her menstrual period. 18So I poured out my wrath upon them for the blood that they had shed upon the land, and for the idols with which they had defiled it. 19I scattered them among the nations, and they were dispersed through the countries; in accordance with their conduct and their deeds I judged them. 20But when they came to the nations, wherever they came, they profaned my holy name, in that it was said of them, ‘These are the people of the Lord, and yet they had to go out of his land.’ 21But I had concern for my holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the nations to which they came.

Ezekiel 36:22-28 22 Therefore say to the house of Israel, Thus says the Lord God: It is not for your sake, O house of Israel, that I am about to act, but for the sake of my holy name, which you have profaned among the nations to which you came. 23I will sanctify my great name, which has been profaned among the nations, and which you have profaned among them; and the nations shall know that I am the Lord, says the Lord God, when through you I display my holiness before their eyes. 24I will take you from the nations, and gather you from all the countries, and bring you into your own land. 25I will sprinkle clean

water upon you, and you shall be clean from all your uncleannesses, and from all your idols I will cleanse you.26A new heart I will give you, and a new spirit I will put within you; and I will remove from your body the heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. 27I will put my spirit within you, and make you follow my statutes and be careful to observe my ordinances. 28Then you shall live in the land that I gave to your ancestors; and you shall be my people, and I will be your God.

NEW TO TRINITY? Helping people to worship God is important to us. We believe that worship is not a passive receiving, but an active encounter with Jesus who stoops to meet us as we worship. The Mostly Liturgical Worship Service at 9:00 am uses liturgy, hymns, worship songs, and silence to guide us in the worship of God. The 10:35 am Church From Scratch Worship Service blends all different types of music, arts, liturgy and free-form worship to help guide newcomers and experienced alike in the worship of God. During the Summer and on Family Worship Sunday, selected Sundays throughout the year, we come together as one worshiping family at 9:30 am.

A Nursery, (downstairs) is available for children two and under at both worship hours. A “Family Room” on the right side of the Sanctuary is available, as well.

Sunday Morning Children’s Christian Education

School Year Schedule - 9:00 & 10:35 Children join their families in the Sanctuary for opening worship and “Learning with Our Children”, then proceed downstairs for class. Parents must sign their children in and out of all classes each week and pick them up promptly following worship. The Sign-in sheet is located in the main hallway outside the Sanctuary doors; sign-out downstairs in Fellowship Hall. This is particularly important after the 9 am service so our teachers can put away materials and set up for the 10:35 class. Thank you for supporting our teachers; you are always welcome to visit our classrooms.

Adult Christian Education Sunday morning and Midweek opportunities are available; check the calendar or contact Robin Olschner (robino@tpcarvada.org) for details.

Reflective Prayer Time

Prayer begins with an affirmation that there is a God and that we can communicate with Him. Christ taught us the value of prayer and quiet reflection.

There were many times that Christ went off to be in solitude and communion with the Father. In our busy lives, we often do not take the time to just be quiet and listen for God.

Come join us for a Reflective Prayer Time. We will start out with a scripture and short meditative reading and spend some time in quiet to reflect on what God may want to share with us. We will end with some sharing and discussion.

Starting February 7 through May 31 room 301 (3rd floor small group room)

Wednesdays - 7 pm and Thursdays - 12:30 pm Come when you can, come when you feel a need for quiet, come for a closer connection with God.
