Call to Worship                                                                    

Psalm 86:8-12     

There is none like you among the gods, O Lord, nor are there any works like yours.

All the nations you have made shall come and worship before you, O Lord, and shall glorify your name. For you are great and do wondrous things; you alone are God.

Teach me you way, O LORD, that I may walk in your truth; unite my heart to fear your name.

I give thanks to you, O Lord my God, with my whole heart, and I will glorify your name forever and ever.

Offertory

PCA Book of Church Order     54-2

It is both a privilege and a duty, plainly enjoined in the Bible, to make regular, weekly, systematic and proportionate offerings for the support of religion and for the propagation of the Gospel in our own and foreign lands, and the relief of the poor. This should be done as an exercise of grace and an act of worship, and at such time during the service 

as may be deemed expedient by the Session.
