CALL TO WORSHIP
I love the Lord, because He has
heard my voice and my
supplications. Because He has
inclined His ear unto me,
therefore I will call upon Him as
long as I live.
Prayer of Invocation/Confession
We thank You, this morning O God, for
life, with all its wonder and beauty and
power. We thank You for this time of
worship. We thank You for being our
All-seeing God. You know our lives, our
hearts and our thoughts. Reveal
Yourself to us in our hearts and in this
worship experience. Draw us to
Yourself, by the bonds of love. Thank
You that we are all knitted together by
Your great love. Forgive us when we are
silent about Your wondrous works done
in us. Yes, we fall short but You are a
Merciful God. And, we thank You! Lord
of Life, You have equipped us with
strength and spirit. Remind us again of
our place in Your church and Your
kingdom. You gave us Christ to be our
Savior. You redeem us from our sins by
His power and His cross. You raise us to
life through His death and Resurrection.
Thank You! And today, we will rejoice.
Glory to God! Amen. __________________________________

voices and money, together to worship You. Please increase our obedience and
increase our faith. In the Name of Jesus, we pray and we give. Amen.

SEARCH COMMITTEE UPDATE
The Search Committee has continued its work with Vanderbloemen and has scheduled conference calls and meeting dates to begin the process of reviewing candidate applications and information to be received from Vanderbloemen. As the Search Committee begins this next phase of the search process, we are asking that the church to continue to PRAY with and for the Search Committee as the team reviews the candidates’ application and information and takes the next steps in the search process.
PLEASE PRAY WITH THE SEARCH COMMITTEE
Pray that the Pastoral Search Committee will know the right questions to ask as we represent the church through the interview process. Pray that we would represent the church accurately. Pray that we would have clarity as we move forward with candidates throughout the process. Matthew 5:16 “In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.” As we pray over whom God has called to lead New Prospect, the Pastoral Search Committee will be interviewing to narrow the pool of applicants to final candidates. We believe that God will identify, from the final candidates, whom He has called and assigned to lead New Prospect. Pray that our final candidates will have clarity during their visits with us and know whether or not this could be the next step in ministry to which God has called and assigned them.
Philippians 4:7 “And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”
