Call to Worship
Psalm 8
1 O Lord, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth!
You have set your glory above the heavens.
2 Out of the mouth of babies and infants,
you have established strength because of your foes,
to still the enemy and the avenger.
3 When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars, which you have set in place,
4 what is man that you are mindful of him,
and the son of man that you care for him?
5 Yet you have made him a little lower than the heavenly beings
and crowned him with glory and honor.
6 You have given him dominion over the works of your hands;
you have put all things under his feet,
7 all sheep and oxen,
and also the beasts of the field,
8 the birds of the heavens, and the fish of the sea,
whatever passes along the paths of the seas.
9 O Lord, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth!
Collect: Almighty Father, who has given your only Son to die for our sins, and to rise again for our justification: Grant to us to put away the leaven of malice and wickedness, that we may always serve you in pureness of living and truth, through the merits of the same Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

16 Now the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain to which Jesus had directed them. 17 And when they saw him they worshiped him, but some doubted. 18 And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”

11 Finally, brothers, rejoice. Aim for restoration, comfort one another, agree with one another, live in peace; and the God of love and peace will be with you. 12 Greet one another with a holy kiss. 13 All the saints greet you.

Notes
Lord’s SupperResponseAs we respond to God’s word we want to invite believers in Jesus to join us in taking the Lord’s Supper in obedience to his instruction laid out by Paul in 1 Corinthians 11:23-26. This is also a time of giving for those who came prepared for that. You can give financial gifts through the giving tab above to your right or in the giving box located by the door as you exit. Thank you for your generosity in supporting gospel ministry through CTK and Bible Translation.
