Greeting P C
Eternal God our creator, in you we live and move and have our being. Look upon us, your children, the work of your hands. Forgive us all our offenses, and cleanse us from proud thoughts and empty desires. By your grace draw us near to you, our refuge and our strength; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. Since we are justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit given to us. In the mercy of almighty God, Christ died for us while we still were sinners; and for his sake, God forgives you all your sins. Amen. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with you all. And also with you.

Hymn of the Day 521
O Day of Rest and Gladness
Apostles’ Creed
As a community of believers, we stand as one and confess our faith.
C
I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth. I believe in Jesus Christ, God's only Son, our Lord, Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried; He descended to the dead. On the third day He rose again; He ascended into heaven, He is seated at the right hand of the Father, and He will come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.
P C
… Lord, in Your mercy, receive our prayer.

The Faithful Ones offerings for the month will also be used to fill these backpacks with school supplies. If you wish to offer additional funds for this ministry, please use an envelope which may be found in the Narthex. Checks should be made out to King of Glory with “Faithful Ones” in the memo.
I Sing as I Arise Today
Kenneth Dake
I sing as I arise today! I call on my Creator’s might: the will of God to be my guide, the eye of God to be my sight, the word of God to be my speech, the hand of God to be my stay, the shield of God to be my strength, the path of God to be my way. Alleluia! attributed to St. Patrick

With these words, the pastor consecrates the elements for Holy Communion.
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name, Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
