PRELUDE: Prelude on “Trust and Obey” by Gene Roberson
WELCOME AND ANNOUNCEMENTS
CALL TO WORSHIP
INTROIT: Christ, the Solid Rock by Clayton White; Maria Schaffer, soprano solo
My hope is built on nothing less than Jesus’ blood and righteousness; I dare not trust the sweetest frame, but wholly lean on Jesus’ name. On Christ, the solid rock, the rock, I stand. When darkness veils his lovely face, I rest on his unchanging grace; in every high and stormy gale my anchor holds within the veil. On Christ, the solid rock, I stand; all other ground is just sinking sand. His oath, his covenant, his blood support me in the whelming flood; when all around my soul gives way, he then is all my hope and stay. When he shall come with trumpet sound, oh, may I then in him be found, dressed in his righteousness alone, faultless to stand before the throne. [Edward Mote]

Bind us together in Christian love as builders for Christ: to do his work together throughout the world for all eternity! And Jesus said: “Whoever hears these words of mine and acts upon them is like a wise man who built his house on solid rock. The rain came down, and the winds blew mightily against it; yet it did not fall, for its foundation was built upon the rock.” [adapted from Matthew 7:24-27]
