Here's a copy of the order and the podcast of the worship service I led in the First United Presbyterian Church of Mingo Junction, Ohio on Sunday, February 21, 2021. Below was our order of worship.
Welcome and Announcements
Opening Prayer
Call to Worship: Psalm 25:1-10
Leader: To you, O Lord, I lift up my soul. O my God, in you I trust; do not let me be put to shame; do not let my enemies exult over me.
People: Do not let those who wait for you be put to shame; let them be ashamed who are wantonly treacherous.
Leader: Make me to know your ways, O Lord; teach me your paths.
People: Lead me in your truth, and teach me, for you are the God of my salvation; for you I wait all day long.
Leader: Be mindful of your mercy, O Lord, and of your steadfast love, for they have been from of old.
People: Do not remember the sins of my youth or my transgressions; according to your steadfast love remember me, for your goodness' sake, O Lord!
Leader: Good and upright is the Lord; therefore he instructs sinners in the way. He leads the humble in what is right, and teaches the humble his way.
People: All the paths of the Lord are steadfast love and faithfulness, for those who keep his covenant and his decrees.
Prayer of Confession
Merciful God, we confess that we've sinned against you. Your son offers a guide on how we might share your good news. Unfortunately, we don’t follow his example. Instead, we trust ourselves, and as a result, our witness becomes confused and ineffective. Loving Father, forgive us and help us share your love and grace by learning from your Son and our Savior.
