PRELUDE
We are excited that you are worshiping with Gethsemane today. OPENING PRAYER:2
Bountiful and Gracious God,
we come together as your children to worship you.
During our time together, let the Holy Spirit move among us so we
can know, see, and feel the amazing love you have for us. Help us to return that love to you by worshiping you and living
into your ways. We ask this in Jesus’ name. Amen. SCRIPTURE READING Liturgist: Judy Larson
CHILDREN’S MESSAGE
Let us welcome the children: “Jesus Loves Me”. “Jesus loves me! This I know. For the Bible tells me so. Little ones to Him belong; they are weak, but he is strong. Yes! Jesus loves me, Yes! Jesus loves me. Yes! Jesus loves me. The Bible tells me so”.

PRAYER OF INTERCESSION (In unison after prayer)
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 those 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.
