*CALL TO WORSHIP Psalm 22: 25-26

May your hearts live forever!

*AFFIRMATION OF FAITH
Apostles Creed
I
believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth,
And
in Jesus Christ his only Son our Lord; who was conceived by the Holy
Ghost,
born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead,
and
buried; he descended into hell; the third day he rose again from the dead; he
ascended into heaven, and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father
Almighty;
from
thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead.
I
believe in the Holy Ghost; the holy catholic church; the communion of saints;
the
forgiveness of sins; the resurrection of the body; and the life everlasting.
Amen.
*THE PEACE
The peace of Jesus born of Mary, who was and is, and
is to come, be with you all.
Peace be with you.
(worshipers greet one another with
words and gestures of the peace of Christ)
