He is Faithful
Verse 1
I have heard a sound, coming on the wind
Changing hearts and minds, healing brokenness,
I feel a generation, breaking through despair
I hear a generation, full of faith declare (Pre-chorus)
Pre-Chorus
And our song, it will be
Out of the darkness we will rise and sing (Chorus)
Chorus 1
He is faithful, He is glorious
And He is Jesus, and all my hope is in Him
He is freedom, He is healing right now
He is hope, and joy, love, and peace, and life.
Verse 2
I have seen a light, like the break of dawn,
Giving blind men sight, and letting lame men walk.
I see a generation, with resurrection life
We are a generation, filled with the power of Christ (Pre-chorus)
Bridge
He has paid the highest price; He has proven His great love for us,
We will praise Him with our lives; And proclaim our love for Him.

How Great Thou Art
Verse 1
O Lord my God, when I in awesome wonder
Consider all the worlds Thy hands have made.
I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder
Thy pow’r thru’out, the universe displayed.
Chorus
Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to Thee
How great Thou art, how great Thou art
Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to Thee
How great Thou art, how great Thou art
Verse 2
And when I think, that God His Son not sparing
Sent Him to die, I scarce can take it in.
That on the cross, my burden gladly bearing
He bled and died, to take away my sin. (Chorus)
Verse 3
When Christ shall come, with shout of acclamation
And take me home, what joy shall fill my heart.
Then I shall bow, in humble adoration
And there proclaim, my God how great Thou art. (Chorus)

Children’s Message
First Lesson 1 Corinthians 7:29-31
I mean, brothers and sisters, the appointed time has grown short; from now on, let even those who have wives be as though they had none, and those who mourn as though they were not mourning, and those who rejoice as though they were not rejoicing, and those who buy as though they had no possessions, and those who deal with the world as though they had no dealings with it. For the present form of this world is passing away.
Lay Reader: The word of the Lord.
People: Thanks be to God.
Gospel Acclamation
Gospel Lesson Mark 1:14-20
Pastor: The Holy Gospel according to Saint Mark, the first chapter.
People: Glory to you, O Lord.
Now after John was arrested, Jesus came to Galilee, proclaiming the good news of God, and saying, ‘The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God has come near; repent, and believe in the good news.’
As Jesus passed along the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and his brother Andrew casting a net into the lake—for they were fishermen. And Jesus said to them, ‘Follow me and I will make you fish for people.’ And immediately they left their nets and followed him. As he went a little farther, he saw James son of Zebedee and his brother John, who were in their boat mending the nets. Immediately he called them; and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men, and followed him.
Pastor: The Gospel of the Lord.
People: Praise to you, O Christ.
The Message by Pastor Scott Baker
Hymn of the Day “Jesus Calls Us, O’er the Tumult”
The Apostles’ Creed
I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord. He was conceived by the
power of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He suffered under
Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended into hell. On the third day he rose again. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again 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.

Words Of Institution
Pastor: In the night in which he was betrayed, our Lord Jesus took bread, and gave thanks; broke it, and gave it to his disciples, saying: Take and eat; this is my body, given for you. Do this for the remembrance of me. Again, after supper, he took the cup, gave thanks, and gave it for all to drink, saying: this cup is the new covenant in my blood, shed for you and for all people for the forgiveness of sin. Do this for the remembrance of me.
The Lord’s Prayer
Pastor: Lord, remember us in your kingdom, and teach us to pray:
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever and ever. Amen.
Lamb of God

Holy Spirit come, Holy Spirit come.
