Singing Our Faith ~ "There is Room for All"
There is room for all
in the shadow of God’s wing;
There is room for all sheltered in God’s love.
And I rejoice and sing,
“My refuge and my rock in whom I trust.”
There is room for all. There is room for all.
Repeat

Singing Our Faith ~ "Enter, Rejoice, and Come In"
Enter, rejoice, and come in.
Enter, rejoice, and come in.
Today will be a joyful day;
Enter, rejoice, and come in.
Open your ears to the song.
Open your hearts ev'ryone.
Don't be afraid of some change.
Enter, rejoice, and come in.
Opening Prayer and The Prayer of Jesus
Sung Responsively
Our Creator in heaven
Hallowed be your name.
Your kingdom come.
Your will be done, on earth as in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread,
Forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those
Who trespass against us.
Save us from the time of trial,
And deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom, the power
And the glory are yours
Now and forever. Amen
The Word About Life for Today - Matthew 14
Shared by Rev. Ken Heintzelman
And early in the morning he came walking towards them on the lake. But when the disciples saw him walking on the lake, they were terrified, saying, ‘It is a ghost!’ And they cried out in fear. But immediately Jesus spoke to them and said, ‘Take heart, it is I; do not be afraid.’ Peter answered him, ‘Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the water.’ He said, ‘Come.’ So Peter got out of the boat, started walking on the water, and came towards Jesus. But when he noticed the strong wind, he became frightened, and beginning to sink, he cried out, ‘Lord, save me!’ Jesus immediately reached out his hand and caught him, saying to him, ‘You of little faith, why did you doubt?’ When they got into the boat, the wind ceased. And those in the boat worshipped him, saying, ‘Truly you are the Son of God.’
