CHORAL INTROIT *CALL TO WORSHIP: Gods love is so great that even the worst sinner can become a saint in the church. We praise God for love and forgiveness which transforms sinners into saints! That transformation is Gods gift to all who will let Jesus intervene in their lives with salvation. Thanks be to God whose Son Jesus Christ breaks into our lives with forgiveness! Come, let us sing and follow after our Lord, Jesus! *HYMN # 269 Jesus Calls Us *CALL TO and PRAYER of CONFESSION: By faith we come to You, O Lord God, believing You can transform our sinful ways into loyal service in Your kingdom, just like you did for St. Paul from Tarsus. We pray for Your forgiveness to destroy our indifference and disobedience to Your will. Enable us to bear witness with our lives to a similar resurrection experience with our Lord Jesus. In His name, we continue to confess ... (silent, personal confession) *ASSURANCE of PARDON & GLORIA PATRI *AFFIRMATION of FAITH: Apostles Creed (pg. 12)
