Call to Worship—
You are the Sovereign One, O God, and rightly to be blessed. Your name shall ever be upon our lips.
You have heard the poor and saved them from trouble.
You have enlightened believers; their faces reflect your radiance. Aglow with the splendor of your promised redemption,
we gather to worship you, ruler of nations. Amen.
Hymn of Praise - #526 - “The Solid Rock”
Verse 1
My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus' blood and righteousness
I dare not trust the sweetest frame
But wholly lean on Jesus' name
Chorus
On Christ the solid Rock I stand
All other ground is sinking sand
All other ground is sinking sand
Verse 2
When darkness veils His lovely face
I rest on His unchanging grace
In ev'ry high and stormy gale
My anchor holds within the veil
Verse 3
His oath His covenant His blood
Support me in the whelming flood
When all around my soul gives way
He then is all my hope and stay
Verse 4
When He shall come with trumpet sound
O may I then in Him be found
Dressed in His righteousness alone
Faultless to stand before the throne

Hymn of Invitation -#305 “Jesus Paid It All”
Verse 1
I hear the Saviour say
Thy strength indeed is small
Child of weakness watch and pray
Find in Me thine all in all
Chorus
Jesus paid it all
All to Him I owe
Sin had left a crimson stain
He washed it white as snow
Verse 2
Lord now indeed I find
Thy power and Thine alone
Can change the leper's spots
And melt the heart of stone
Verse 3
For nothing good have I
Whereby Thy grace to claim
I'll wash my garments white
In the blood of Calvary's Lamb
Verse 4
And when before the throne
I stand in Him complete
Jesus died my soul to save
My lips shall still repeat

Benediction
September Benevolence - Pemberton Christian Caring Center
The Center serves as the Salvation Army Service Unit for Pemberton Township. Through this remarkable ministry, many area churches provide crucial support to meet needs for which there is no grant funding. This enables us to bridge a complicated gap between church and state. Salvation Army funds are particularly important for assisting with rapid rehousing. Family reunification is a cornerstone of this effort, so we use these funds to help clients travel home. These funds also help clients in crisis with needed medical care, including medications, eyeglasses and small medical equipment.
Recovery, Sobriety and Job Training
Christian Caring Center operates a four-bed men’s shelter in Pemberton dedicated to helping men in recovery from substance abuse issues. Staffed with an on-site manager, the shelter follows a structured program to provide accountability and Christian discipleship. Through the shelter and their other outreaches to people striving for a life of sobriety, they provide avenues for work experience and job training in retail, food service, maintenance, janitorial and office administration skills.
