Father's Day

Today was wonderful as we gathered to worship and to celebrate all our dads. We're experimenting a little with our assembly order... basically doing announcements first and saving written prayer requests to be shared in shepherding groups (adult classes) after worship.

Brice did a wonderful job of sharing the story of Jairus, leading us to see him as a dad who brought Jesus to his family. Here's what the morning looked like:

We’re Marching to Zion
No Tears in Heaven
(v 3 of ...Zion)
Welcome, Family News and Greeting
Nobody Fills My Heart Like Jesus
Shout Hallelujah
Responsive Reading: Colossians 1:15-17
You Are Holy
Reading: 2 Corinthians 1:3-4
Still
Prayer (final refrain of Still)
Communing as a Family with a Father Who Loves Us
Here in this Place
You Have Been Good
Offering
Invitation to Children’s Church
I Am a Sheep
Sermon
Good to Me
Jesus, Draw Me Closer
Days of Elijah
Shepherd’s Blessing
