OPENING PRAYER Heavenly Father, we gather this morning with those who love You, that we might sing Your praises and share Your love with one another. You have shown Your faithfulness to us everyday in ways that we do not always recognize, so we gather today in order to thank You for Your constant watch-care over us. Help us to entrust ours lives to You and Your purposes as we pray in the Name of Jesus Christ, who taught us to pray in the power of Your Spirit,

All: 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 t hose 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. Amen. OPENING PRAISE SONG Open The Eyes Of My Heart! (Paul Baloche W&S No. 3008) Jessica Meinders COMMUNITY PRAYER Marilyn Seidl-Kramer CHILDREN’S TIME Pastor Lourdes * READING THE GOSPEL Matthew 16:13-20 (CEB) Marilyn Seidl-Kramer 13 Now when Jesus came to the area of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, “Who do people say the Human One is?” 14 They replied, “Some say John the Baptist, others Elijah, and still others Jeremiah or one of the other prophets.” 15 He said, “And what about you? Who do you say that I am?” 16 Simon Peter said, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” 17 Then Jesus replied, “Happy are you, Simon son of Jonah, because no human has shown this to you. Rather my Father who is in heaven has shown you. 18 I tell you that you are Peter. And I’ll build my church on this rock. The gates of the underworld won’t be able to stand against it. 19 I’ll give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven. Anything you fasten on earth will be fastened in heaven. Anything you loosen on earth will be loosened in heaven.” 20 Then he ordered the disciples not to tell anybody that he was the Christ. SERMON Shouts of Joy!
