Opening Prayer: Gracious God, we gather this day to offer to you our praise. You alone are worthy to be glorified and lifted up. We bring our worship in response to all that you have done. Together, we magnify you. May our worship be pleasing to you. We offer it to you in the name of Christ the Lord, AMEN.

Hymn       "My Hope is Built"       368

Morning Prayer - Lord's Prayer
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. Amen

The Giving of Tithes and Offerings           
Doxology #95 in Hymnal

Prayer of Thanksgiving: God, you have given us so much. We bring our gifts to you now in gratitude for your love and faithfulness to us. Pour out your blessing upon these gifts, we pray; we offer them to your glory in the name of Christ, AMEN.

Message Text       Psalm 91:1-16

Message       "What I Thought I Knew"

Prayer of Response: Loving God, to say "thank you" seems so inadequate. We are filled with gratitude for all the ways in which you have been faithful to your people. Our prayer is that we would never lose sight of your faithfulness and that our hope and trust and faith would be ever in you. We pray in Jesus’ name, AMEN

Hymn       "Great is Thy Faithfulness"       140

Benediction

Live so that those who know you will come to know God.
