March 13, 2016 Morning Worship

Warmer weather brought clouds and rain across the city, but that didn’t keep members and guest from wanting to learn from the Bible and to praise the Lord.

The worship service began with Deacon Joe Gross reading Psalm 63 and saying a prayer.  Although Co-Worship Leader Jacob Hatcher was a little under the weather, he played his guitar while Co-Worship Leader Jaime Hatcher sang and led the gathered in song.

• Hosanna (Praise is Rising)
• All Creatures of Our God and King

A time of fellowship was enjoyed by all, then Associate Pastor Brandon Saunders presented today’s announcements:

• Today’s sermon – 1 Timothy series with Doug Hanna
• Tonight’s study – 1 Samuel 21 with Jacob Hatcher
• Business meeting after evening worship
• Miles of Pennies for Sunrise Children’s Home
• Easter is coming
• Pastoral concerns

After Saunders prayed, Jacob read Matthew 4:1-11, and Jaime led the gathered through a few more songs

• Take My Life and Let It Be Consecrated
• Be Thou My Vision

Deacon Gary Cook prayed for the offering, then the Hatchers played quietly while the collection plates were passed.
