Pastoral Prayer
The Fellowship of the Word and the Table
Scripture Reading John 3:16-21
‘For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish but may have eternal life.
‘Indeed, God did not send the Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Those who believe in him are not condemned; but those who do not believe are condemned already, because they have not believed in the name of the only Son of God. And this is the judgement, that the light has come into the world, and people loved darkness rather than light because their deeds were evil. For all who do evil hate the light and do not come to the light, so that their deeds may not be exposed. But those who do what is true come to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that their deeds have been done in God.’
Sermon “No Ordinary Love” Rev. Dr. Joel Mitchell
*Hymn "Heart of Worship" by Matt Redman (sung twice)
I’m coming back to the heart of worship
And it’s all about You, its all about You, Jesus
I’m sorry Lord for the thing I’ve made it
When it’s all about You, all about You, Jesus

*Closing Hymn "This Little Light of Mine"
This little light of mine
I’m going to let it shine
Oh, this little light of mine
I’m going to let it shine
This little light of mine
I’m going to let it shine
Let it shine, all the time, let it shine
Hide it under a bushel? No!
I’m going to let it shine
Hide it under a bushel? No!
I’m going to let it shine
Hide it under a bushel? No!
I’m going to let it shine
Let it shine, all the time, let it shine
