Call to Worship - Psalm 148:11–14
Kings of the earth and all peoples, princes and all rulers of the earth! Young men and maidens together, old men and children! Let them praise the name of the LORD, for his name alone is exalted; his majesty is above earth and heaven. He has raised up a horn for his people, praise for all his saints, for the people of Israel who are near to him. Praise the LORD!
Invocation

*Confession of Faith - Heidelberg Catechism, Q. 1
Q. What is your only comfort in life and in death?
A. That I am not my own, but belong - body and soul, in life and in death – to my faithful Savior Jesus Christ.
He has fully paid for all my sins with His precious blood and has set me free from the tyranny of the devil.
He also watches over me in such a way that not a hair can fall from my head without the will of my Father in heaven: in fact, all things must work together for my salvation.
Because I belong to Him, Christ, by His Holy Spirit, assures me of eternal life and makes me wholeheartedly willing and ready from now on to live for Him.

Prayer of Confession
Assurance of Pardon - 1 John 2:1–2
