ANNOUNCEMENTS
Parents’ Night Out—Friday, May 3 Parents’ Night Out is an opportunity for the children of the church, as well as those in the community, to get together for games, movies, pizza, and more, so that parents can enjoy a date night or fellowship with other parents. Our next night out is May 3rd from 5:30-8:30 PM. Children aged 3 (and potty trained) through 5th grade are invited to join! The cost is just $5 per child and reservations are required as spots are limited. Please contact the front office (407-647-1467) to reserve your child's spot today. Any adults who are willing to help chaperone this event (all activities will be led by Pastor Emily), and Youth willing to lend a hand for service hours, please contact Pastor Emily - [email protected]. Parents’ Night Out is scheduled for the first Friday of every month. This will be our last PNO before we take a break and resume again in September.
Relationships in Action - Sunday Mornings at 9:15 AM in Room 301 May 5th—The Holy Land Revealed: Samaria and the Northern Kingdom of Isreal After the ten northern tribes broke away from Judah and formed their own kingdom, eventually Samaria became its capital, only 35 miles from Jerusalem. Tremendous tension and rivalry developed between them. Join us as Professor Jodi Magness describes this period from the Hebrew Bible in Lesson 6 from the series. Mike Galyean will lead this discussion.
Sunday School Children: Nursery for ages 1 month-3 years (608), Ages 3 years-Grade 2 (101), Grades 3-5 (201)
At Winter Park Presbyterian Church we are blessed to host Sunday School classes for young and elementary aged children. Both classes use a curriculum which invites children to explore the stories of the Bible through video, crafts, games, and mission. In Sunday School they will begin to form the building blocks for a lifelong, deep faith in Christ.
Adults & Youth: Relations in Action (301), Seekers (315)
Relationships in Action (R in A) - Relationships in Action is adult Sunday School class that studies issues “with the Bible in one hand and the newspaper in the other.” Each week features a different theme and a different speaker to present each topic. They are interested in social issues that affect their lives and the lives of others and how we as followers of Christ can be a factor in positive change.
Seekers: The Seekers is a discussion based adult Sunday school class that studies a wide variety of topics ranging from Books of the Bible to Theology to Current Events. They are a support group that spends time on fellowship as well as discussion and they are able to disagree, yet move in a positive direction during their discussions.
When the prelude begins, all are invited to enter a period of quiet reflection so that those wishing to prepare for worship through prayer and meditat ion may so do. Please silence all electronic devices.

* Opening Prayer
Call to Confession
Prayer of When we lock the doors of our hearts or minds,
Confession you burst through with forgiveness and peace.
When we are paralyzed by fear, doubt, or anger,
you breathe the spirit on us and clothe us in your strength.
When we turn away from the depth of your redemption,
you call us back and gift us with joy.
Forgive us, risen Lord, for the sins we commit.
Forgive us, risen Lord, for the sins we fail to confess.
Forgive us, risen Lord, for the sins we fail to forgive,
and lead us into your abundant life. Amen.
(Continue with silent confession and reflection until response is introduced)
