Call to Worship - Psalm 25:1-9
Hymn of Praise - #104 “O Worship The King”
Verse 1
O worship the King all glorious above
And gratefully sing His wonderful love
Our Shield and Defender the Ancient of Days
Pavilioned in splendor and girded with praise
Verse 2
O tell of His might and sing of His grace
Whose robe is the light whose canopy space
His chariots of wrath the deep thunderclouds form
And dark is His path on the wings of the storm
Verse 3
Thy bountiful care what tongue can recite
It breathes in the air it shines in the light
It streams from the hills it descends to the plain
And sweetly distills in the dew and the rain
Verse 4
Frail children of dust and feeble as frail
In Thee do we trust nor find Thee to fail
Thy mercies how tender how firm to the end
Our Maker Defender Redeemer and Friend
Verse 5
All Hail to the King in splendor enthroned
Glad praises we bring Thy wonders make known
Returning victorious great conqueror of sin
King Jesus all glorious our victory will win

Hymn of Invitation - Here is Love (Praise Band)
Verse 1
Here is love vast as the ocean
Loving-kindness as the flood
When the Prince of Life our Ransom
Shed for us His precious blood
(REPEAT)
Chorus 1
Who His love will not remember
Who can cease to sing His praise
He can never be forgotten
Throughout Heav'n's eternal days
Verse 2
On the mount of crucifixion
Fountains opened deep and wide
Through the floodgates of God's mercy
Flowed a vast and gracious tide
Chorus 2
Grace and love like mighty rivers
Poured incessant from above
Heav'n's peace and perfect justice
Kissed a guilty world in love
Bridge
No love is higher no love is wider
No love is deeper no love is truer
No love is higher no love is wider
No love is like Your love O Lord
(REPEAT 4X)
Ending
Yes here is love
Vast as the ocean
Yes here is love
Vast as the ocean
(REPEAT)

These stories offer a glimpse into what God is doing through International Ministries’ 120+ global servants and 250+ international partners in 70 countries. As you explore the resources available to you at worldmissionoffering.org, we hope you will use them to spread awareness of how we can invest together in this incredible work God is doing around the world.

ONE SHOT DAY 4
Choose Your Adventure!

PHSFEE CASINO NIGHT
The Palmyra High School Foundation for Educational Excellence (PHSFEE) is a grass-roots non-profit dedicated to supporting Palmyra High School. To date the organization has raised over $100,00 for the school and opened up new avenues of learning for the students attending it, and they are looking to raise the bar even higher.
On October 14th, 6:30-11:00 PM PHSFEE will be hosing a Casino Night at Sacred Heart Gym with the goal of raising $50,000 for a new program called PATHWAYS. This program allows high school student take courses for simultaneous high school and college credit. The catch is there is a $50 per credit cost for registering. PHSFEE’s goal is to raise enough money that every Palmyra High School student who wished to take a PATHWAY call can do so at no cost to them, a worthy goal!
Tickets cost $65 per person. For more information or to purchase tickets use the button below to contact PHSFEE.
