Baptism

25 February: Liturgy & Set List

  • GLORIOUS DAY

    Call to Worship:

    Welcome to worship on this Lord’s Day, and this second Sunday in the season of Lent. During Lent we reflect upon and repent of our sin, we reflect on te cross, and look with joy to the hope of the resurrection. So if you are here as a follower of Jesus you can sing words like ‘I ran out of the grave…’ not because of something you have done, but because of Christ’s completed work on your behalf. Let’s celebrate who Jesus is and what he’s done as we sing:

  • O PRAISE THE NAME (ANASTASIS)

  • TRISAGION

    Take a few moments now to name and confess your sin to the Lord, turning from your sin, and turning toward Christ…

    Let’s confess our sin to God and to one another:

  • Book of Common Prayer Corporate Confession

  • Sermon: Mark 15:40-16:8

    Would you stand if you’re able? Buried with Christ in baptism into death, raised to newness of life - this is what we witness in baptism. And if you’re here as a follower of Christ, we are going to confess what we believe about our faith in the words of the Apostles’ Creed.

22 January: Liturgy + Set List

Call to Worship: Psalm 139:1-6

If you are here this morning as a follower of Jesus, you can come boldly to your Father not because of your righteousness but because of Christ’s complete righteousness. We get to celebrate the person and work of Christ together this morning, let’s sing:

  • HOUSE OF THE LORD

  • HIS MERCY IS MORE

God’s mercy is greater than all our sins, that is the only reason we can read and pray these words with joy instead of fear:

LEADER:

Where shall I go from your Spirit? Or where shall I flee from your presence? If I ascend to heaven, you are there! If I make my bed in Sheol, you are there! If I take the wings of the morning and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea, even there your hand shall lead me, and your right hand shall hold me. If I say, “Surely the darkness shall cover me, and the light about me be night,” even the darkness is not dark to you; the night is bright as the day, for darkness is as light with you.

ALL:
For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb.
I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.[a] Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well. My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the depths of the earth.

LEADER:

Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them. How precious to me are your thoughts, O God! How vast is the sum of them! If I would count them, they are more than the sand. I awake, and I am still with you. (Psalm 139:7-18)

Sermon: Mark 1:29-45

Elisabeth Elliot says, “Leave it all in the hands that were wounded for You.” The wounded, healing hands of the King who has forgiven us not partially, or temporarily, but forever. Would you stand if you’re able, we’ll sing together:

  • FORGIVEN FOREVER

  • JESUS PAID IT ALL

    Benediction: Based on Isaiah 1:18, Mark 1:45
