WELCOME VISITORS! We extend a special welcome to anyone who has lots of money or to those who have none; whether you’re single, divorced, engaged, married, widowed. We welcome those who sing like angels and those who just make a joyful noise! You’re welcome here if you’re 1 or 100 or anywhere in between. We welcome those who work too hard or don’t work at all. We welcome you if you’re having problems, are down in the dumps and even if you don’t like ‘organized religion’. This is the place to be. We offer a special welcome to those who could use a prayer right now and even those who think they don’t need prayer. We welcome tourists, seekers and doubters, bleeding hearts, people who think they don’t need Jesus...and you! Whatever your circumstances today, you’re in the right place! We welcome you! Please fill out a visitor card located in the pew rack and place in the offering plate so we can have a record of your visit. If you are a first time visitor, stop by our visitors’ table in the Narthex and pick up our gift to you for worshiping with us today. Rev.

INVOCATION
Good morning folks, Second chances! Most oen these are hard to come by and, in most cases, harder to offer. However, imagine if Jesus had not given Paul a second chance to move from his sinfulness to a life of service? Can you imagine what the church would look like without the influence of Paul? This morning I would like to invite you into a conversa'on about when and who deserves a second chance and how we know when to give it. This is one I struggle with so know that I am si(ng in the pew with you today (figura'vely speaking). My prayer is that we all leave with a word from God. Sit up, eyes front and let us worship our God.
