Welcome
Almighty and eternal God, you show perpetual lovingkindness to us your servants. Because we cannot rely on our own abilities, grant us your merciful judgement, and train us to embody the generosity of your Son, Jesus Christ, our Saviour and Lord. Amen
Call to Worship
CONFESSION AND FORGIVENESS
|
Blessed be the holy Trinity, one God,
who creates, redeems, and sustains us and all of creation. Amen. Let us confess our sin in the presence of God and of one another. Silence is kept for reflection |
Faithful God,
Have mercy on us. We confess that we are captive to sin and cannot free ourselves. We turn from your loving embrace and go our own ways. We pass judgement on one another before examining ourselves. We place our own needs before those of our neighbours. We keep your gift of salvation to ourselves. Make us humble, cast away our transgressions, and turn us again to life in you through Jesus Christ, our Saviour and Lord. Amen. |
God hears the cries of all who call out in need,
and through his death and resurrection, Christ has made us his own. Hear the truth that God proclaims: Your sins are forgiven in the name of Jesus Christ. Led by the Holy Spirit, live in freedom and newness to do God’s work in the world. Amen. |

God of goodness and growth, all creation is yours, and your faithfulness is as firm as the heavens. Water and word, wine and bread: these are signs of your abundant grace.

PRAYERS & Blessing
The Lord's Prayer
Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name;
thy kingdom come;
thy will be done;
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation;
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom,
the power and the glory,
for ever and ever.
Amen.

FULFILLING GOD’S VISION FOR OUR LAND: THE NEXT CHAPTER
Dear Glory Family,
After much anticipation, lots of prayers and work, we are excited to have launched our fundraising campaign - “Fulfilling God’s Vision for our Land: The Next Chapter” - a chapter of expanded ministry to our church family and the local and worldwide communities.
Since our earliest days as a congregation, God has blessed us richly – a place to worship in a beautiful setting, a church family that thrives on joy, a community with both roots and wings. We come from different backgrounds and experiences but find our common ground in our identity in Jesus and the family of faith He has woven us into – Reaching Up…Reaching Out…Reaching In.
You have probably received a package in the mail by now. If you have not received a package, please contact Heidi in the office to ensure we have your current address and one will be mailed to you.
You will also find this material and much more on the website under the menu item "Land Purchase".
Please use this information to prayerfully consider your financial contribution toward the purchase of the land. Thank you to those of you who have already made a contribution! Check the Land Purchase page on Glory's website often to follow our progress!
