Prelude
Welcome
Announcements
The earth is the LORD’s and all that is in it,
the world, and those who live in it;
for he has founded it on the seas,
and established it on the rivers.
Who shall ascend the hill of the LORD?
And who shall stand in his holy place?
Those who have clean hands and pure hearts,
who do not lift up their souls to what is false,
and do not swear deceitfully.
—Psalm 24:1-4, NRSV
Worship Song: #365 "Alleluia! Alleluia!"
VERSE 1
Alleluia alleluia
Hearts to heav'n and voices raise
Sing to God a hymn of gladness
Sing to God a hymn of praise
He who on the cross as savior
For the world's salvation bled
Jesus Christ the King of Glory
Now is risen from the dead
Christ is risen
VERSE 2
Now the iron bars are broken,
Christ from death to life is born;
Glorious life, and life immortal,
On this resurrection morn.
Christ has triumphed, and we conquer
By His mighty enterprise;
We with Him to life eternal
By His resurrection rise.

Verse
My Jesus my Saviour
Lord there is none like You
All of my days I want to praise
The wonders of Your mighty love
My comfort my shelter
Tower of refuge and strength
Let every breath all that I am
Never cease to worship You
Chorus
Shout to the Lord
All the earth let us sing
Power and majesty
Praise to the King
Mountains bow down
And the seas will roar
At the sound of Your name
I sing for joy
At the work of Your hands
Forever I'll love You
Forever I'll stand
Nothing compares to the promise
I have in You

August Benevolence - Riverview Estates
Riverview Estates was the vision of Miss Mary Leverich and became a reality on August 17, 1951, when she donated a generous bequest from her estate to establish The Baptist Home in South Jersey. The first building purchased was at the present location, and included the Victorian house, the carriage house and an additional lot for expansion.
On October 1, 1953, the state granted authorization to operate the property as a nursing home. The doors opened for ministry on March 10, 1954, and the dedication ceremony took place on Saturday, October 2, 1954.
We have been providing healing, hospitality, and care to residents of Riverton and surrounding communities for over half a century. Through the Lord’s grace, we still faithfully serve patients in our community every day.
We may not know what the future holds, but we know who holds the future. With the Lord’s help we have come this far, and with the Lord’s help we will have another 50 years of service to the seniors of the South Jersey area.
Family Game Night
