*Call to Worship
Bless the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me, bless God's holy name,
Bless the Lord, O my soul, and do not forget all the Lord's blessings.
God forgives all our sins.
God heals all our diseases.
God redeems our lives from the Pit.
God crowns us with steadfast love and mercy.
As long as we live, God blesses us with good.
We are renewed and made whole! Bless the Lord, O my soul!
*Hymn of Praise How Great Thou Art #467
Call to Confession
Prayer of Confession
We will pray, we ask that you would look into our hearts and see our needs. So we pray, see our shortcomings of pride, selfishness, impatience, dishonesty, and idleness. Replace these things with humility, generosity, patience, honesty, and purposefulness. So that we will be more like Christ and less like those who do not know Him in the pardoning of their sins. In His name we pray. Amen.
Assurance of Pardon
*Passing of the Peace
As God has forgiven us in Christ, let us forgive one another. The peace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.

NEWS
CELEBRATION!!!
Join in the celebration! Today at 4:00 p.m. the Rev. Dr. SanDawna Gaulman Ashley will be installed as our pastor. This is also a joyous time for our church. We are planning a reception worthy of this occasion. Financial donations will also be accepted. Let’s make this a grand celebration.
Church members are asked to park in the Morgan Park United Methodist Church lot if space is available.
What do you believe? In many of our worship services we recite the Creed together. But do you really believe it? Does it leave out any important beliefs? Join the Adult Education class at 9:30 on Sunday mornings this fall. Our first study will be the Apostle's Creed - How well does this ancient, sacred creed summarize what we believe? If you could write your own creed, what would it say?
Our second-Sunday-of-the-month hymn sing, will return on Oct. 11. Start looking for your favorites and come ready to sing them on that day.
Mid-week Bible Study to begin in October, please indicate your preference which day works best for your schedule Tuesday or Wednesday from 6:00 – 7:00 p.m. Please give comments to Juanita Bailey.
