Preparing For Worship: February 15th, 2009

My apologies if any of you felt ill-prepared for last week, as I did not post a Preparing For Worship!

Here's what we can look forward to this Sunday as we continue to study the Sermon on the Mount in Matthew 6. This week Jesus teaches us how to pray...

And the singing! Oh the singing there will be! We'll start the service with "Here I Am to Worship" and "For You Are The Lord." Then Pastor Todd will come lead us in prayer and a time to welcome and greet each other, and our visitors.

Next we'll sing some songs that help prepare us to study the first part of The Lord's Prayer; with the perspective that worship and prayer start with God, and not with us: Our Father in heaven, hallowed be YOUR name... "Ancient of Days" and "Lord Jehovah."

Pastor Todd will then come and teach us the pattern for prayer that Jesus lays out for us in the Lord's Prayer.

We'll respond with a time of worship and prayer, and sing "How Great Is Our God" together as we close the service.

That's what's happening this week so rest up, eat lots of carbs, stretch, and keep your knees bent, and come prepared to worship!
