Prelude

Time of Silence
“In this quiet moment, Jesus speak to me. Fill my heart with Thy love
divine, Your power let me see.”

Call to Worship
L: O sing to the Lord a new song!
P: Sing to the Lord, all the earth!
L: Sing, and give praise to God’s name!
P: Tell the glad news of salvation from day to day!

Hymn 225 Come, Christians, Join to Sing

Silent Prayer of Confession

Sung Response & Assurance of Pardon
“Lord have mercy upon us. Christ have mercy upon us. Lord have mercy upon us.”

Glory to the Father
“Glory be to the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Ghost; as it was in the beginning is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.”

An Affirmation of Faith (unison)
This is the good news which we received, in which we stand and by which we are saved; that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day; and that he appeared to Mary, then to the twelve, and to many faithful witnesses. We believe he is the Christ, the Son of the Living God. He is the first and the last, the beginning and the end, he is our Lord and our God. Amen. 

Sharing of Joys and Concerns

"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 debts, as we forgive our debtors; and lead
*us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen.”

May the Lord, Mighty God, bless and keep you forever; Grant you peace, perfect peace, courage in every endeavor. Lift your eyes and see his face, and his love forever. May the Lord, risen Lord, bless and keep you forever.

Triennium News – Today – July 14
·       During July 16-20th Kelly Dolson, Riley Grainger and N’Senga Kinzonzi will be attending the Presbyterian Triennium Youth Conference at Purdue University. This conference happens only once every three years and it has been over 20 years since OMHPC has sent any youth. What an exciting time to become connected once again to this historical event.
·       This is an amazing opportunity to connect with youth from across the country and the Hudson Valley and share a love of Christ and faith.
·       The total investment to send them to Triennium is approximately $2,000.  Here are a few ways you can help:
·       Please pray!!! The ladies will be embarking on an overnight bus ride for transportation to and from the event. Pray for safety, God’s graces for all the adult advisers who may need more sleep than teenagers, and fun times for all!
·       June 23- July 14th - Bottle Deposit Collection—Drop your clean, empty cans/plastic bottles in the containers in the Fellowship Hall. This is a great way to recycle your cans after those great graduation and summer parties that you have coming up. Please no glass.
·       And from now until July 14th, when they will be commissioned to go by the church, there will be special envelopes for those who would like to make a donation. There is also a giving category on Tithe.ly https://tithe.ly/give?c=52802
·       July 14th - Brunch and Cake/Summer Desert Auction (called by our very own Joe Miedema) following the 9:30 worship service! The auctions are always lots of fun! Tickets for the brunch are $10 and all proceeds from the brunch and auction will go to support the trip.
·       Following Triennium, the group will be sharing their experiences with the congregation. Thank you for your support!!
Sue Farley’s Retirement Party – July 6
·       At the manse on July 6th from 3:00PM on. All are invited! Picnic foods, slip-n-slide, and fun fellowship! RSVP: Farley.party10963@gmail.com.
Rachel’s Elephant-Proof Garden
·       The Youth Group’s help at Pierson’s Farm for the Farm to Fork Fondo bicycle tour resulted in $550 for Rachel’s elephant-proof garden in Namibia.
·       Additional gifts can be made by check made out to OMHPC and directed to Rachel’s Garden or at Tithely: https://tithe.ly/give?c=52802


New Teams
We are looking for a couple of folks willing to help with some ideas and making them happen (dream big, scale back) for this fall! You in?

·       A Creative Team
·       A Welcome Team
·       A Communication Team
·       A Graphics Team
·       A Small Groups Team
·       A Safety Team

Because this fall will be focused around preaching/teaching about Old Testament “Heroes” we need folks who can imagine ways to tell their stories (like Noah) in really creative ways.

In addition, we will be looking for folks who really have a desire to see new families come to our worship and want to see really positive ways to welcome them and get them settled.

And we also want to stretch our communications so that we are reaching folks with good information in the best way possible, not only to reach new people, but to keep in good communication with our currently active ones!

And we need graphics support, not only at the logo level, but for our OT Heroes series. So, how do we make it feel like we are Moses in the Ark on a Sunday morning in our whole building!

We want to expand our small group network, and so are looking for some folks who love small groups, and might be willing to create a series of small group gatherings to see how OT Heroes can change our thinking and doing today!

And we want to expand our safety team, as we look at ways to keep everyone who gathers here safe from trips and falls, keeping our records secure, fire safety, and safety from bad actors, both in terms of internal practices, as well as outside influencers.

These areas of special skills are outside the normal internal working of the church, where we are looking for EMPOWERkids staff, church officers, and directors of programs. These are bite-sized opportunities to “make a difference” using the time, energy, and craziness you already have.

So, for example, a welcome gift idea: church mugs with Starbucks cards. Or a perfect place for Bible and Brew. Or, light stacks (read that lite snacks, didn’t you) made out of furnace filters and LED par cans, that dance with the music. Curious? See Jeff or any of our other crazy leaders!
