Call to Worship - Rev. David Bonnema:

  • Leader: Throughout the ages, God has called ordinary people.
  • People: Some we remember by name; others are lost to time.
  • Leader: Some faced impossible odds and changed history.
  • People: Others simply loved, encouraged, served, and showed up when they were needed.
  • Leader: Their witness reminds us what is possible with God.
  • People: Let us worship the God who works through ordinary people.

Hymn - “Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah” - #281 - 3 Verses

Prayer of Confession
Gracious God, we celebrate those who have gone before us for their courage, their wisdom, and their willingness to follow you. But we forget that they were ordinary people, with doubts, fears, flaws, and struggles. We confess that we underestimate the difference we can make in someone else's life. We want to wait until we have more wisdom, more courage, or more time before we offer encouragement or step out in faith. Forgive us when we overlook the people who need us because we doubt our own worthiness. Help us trust that You can use us, just as we are, to make a difference in the lives of others in Jesus' name. Amen.

Doxology

Affirmation of Faith - The Apostles’ Creed:
I believe in God, the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried. He descended into hell; the third day he rose again from the dead; he ascended into heaven, and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from thence He shall come to judge the quick and the dead. I believe in the Holy Ghost, the holy catholic church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.
