  22. Weekly Announcements

  23. Old Testament: Exodus 32: 1-14 “’Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, your servants, how you swore to them by your own self, saying to them, 'I will multiply your descendants like the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have promised I will give to your descendants, and they shall inherit it forever.'"

  24. Psalter: Psalm 23 God is my shepherd, I shall not want. God makes me lie down in green pastures; and leads me beside still waters; God restores my soul and leads me in right paths for the sake of God's name.

  25. Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I fear no evil; for you are with me; your rod and your staff — they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.

  26. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of God my whole life long.

  27. New Testament: Phillippians 4: 1-9 Keep on doing the things that you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, and the God of peace will be with you.

  28. Open My Eyes that I May See Open my eyes, that I may see Glimpses of truth Thou hast for me; Place in my hands the wonderful key That shall unclasp and set me free. Silently now I wait for Thee, Ready my God, Thy will to see, Open my eyes, illumine me, Spirit divine!

  29. Open my ears, that I may hear Voices of truth Thou sendest clear; And while the wave notes fall on my ear, Everything false will disappear. Silently now I wait for Thee, Ready my God, Thy will to see, Open my ears, illumine me, Spirit divine!

  30. Open my mouth, and let me bear, Gladly the warm truth everywhere; Open my heart and let me prepare Love with Thy children thus to share. Silently now I wait for Thee, Ready my God, Thy will to see, Open my heart, illumine me, Spirit divine!

  37. Offertory Prayer (Unison) Gracious God, receive the gift of our lives and this offering of our service to carry your love from this place to a world in need. This we pray in the name of Christ, whom with you and the Holy Spirit, reign in our hearts and lives, one God now and forever. Amen.
