CALL TO WORSHIP

I love the Lord, because He has

heard my voice and my

supplications. Because He has

inclined His ear unto me,

therefore I will call upon Him as

long as I live.

Prayer of Invocation/Confession

We thank You, this morning O God, for

life, with all its wonder and beauty and

power. We thank You for this time of

worship. We thank You for being our

All-seeing God. You know our lives, our

hearts and our thoughts. Reveal

Yourself to us in our hearts and in this

worship experience. Draw us to

Yourself, by the bonds of love. Thank

You that we are all knitted together by

Your great love. Forgive us when we are

silent about Your wondrous works done

in us. Yes, we fall short but You are a

Merciful God. And, we thank You! Lord

of Life, You have equipped us with

strength and spirit. Remind us again of

our place in Your church and Your

kingdom. You gave us Christ to be our

Savior. You redeem us from our sins by

His power and His cross. You raise us to

life through His death and Resurrection.

Thank You! And today, we will rejoice.

Glory to God! Amen. __________________________________

Almighty God, in whose presence we worship and in whose name we pray, today

trust in You and we render our stewardship to You. We join our hearts, spirits,

voices and money, together to worship You. Please increase our obedience and

increase our faith. In the Name of Jesus, we pray and we give. Amen.

the Lord, because you know that in the Lord your labor is not in vain.”

SEARCH COMMITTEE UPDATE

The Search Committee has continued its work with Vanderbloemen and has scheduled conference calls and meeting dates to begin the process of reviewing candidate applications and information to be received from Vanderbloemen. As the Search Committee begins this next phase of the search process, we are asking that the church to continue to PRAY with and for the Search Committee as the team reviews the candidates’ application and information and takes the next steps in the search process.

PLEASE PRAY WITH THE SEARCH COMMITTEE

Pray that the Pastoral Search Committee will know the right questions to ask as we represent the church through the interview process. Pray that we would represent the church accurately. Pray that we would have clarity as we move forward with candidates throughout the process. Matthew 5:16 “In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.” As we pray over whom God has called to lead New Prospect, the Pastoral Search Committee will be interviewing to narrow the pool of applicants to final candidates. We believe that God will identify, from the final candidates, whom He has called and assigned to lead New Prospect. Pray that our final candidates will have clarity during their visits with us and know whether or not this could be the next step in ministry to which God has called and assigned them.

Philippians 4:7 “And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”
