PRELUDE
We are excited that you are worshiping with Gethsemane today.
PRAYER OF CONFESSION: 2
“O God, source of all that makes life possible, giver of all that makes life good:
We gather to give you our thanks,
yet we confess that we have often failed to live our thankfulness.
What we have we take for granted, and we grumble about what we lack.
We have squandered your bounty,
with little thought of those who will come after us.
We are more troubled by the few who have more than by the many who have less.
Forgive us, O God.
In this hour of worship, accept our thanksgiving;
and teach us to make gratitude and sharing our way of life;
HYMN #117 “O God, Our Help in Ages Past”
through the grace of Jesus Christ.
SCRIPTURE READING
Amen.”
Liturgist: Wayne Bambarger

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. (Matthew 6:9-13)
SHARING LOVE & PEACE IN PLACE
\u201cFor I was hungry, and you fed me. I was thirsty, and you gave me a drink. I was a stranger, and you invited me into your home.\u201d
L. The Word of God for the people of God
P. Thanks be to God
