The Baptism of our Lord
Ordination
& Installation of Elders
& Deacons
Epiphany 1C
The flowers gracing the
sanctuary are given to the glory of God and in loving memory of my

We
invite you to maintain a spirit of silence as the prelude begins our
service.
OUR
APPROACH TO GOD
Prelude
Introit "Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus"
Welcome
Call to Worship: St.
Ephraem, 4th century
The sun conquers and the steps by
which
it approaches its zenith show forth a mystery.
LO! IT IS TWELVE DAYS SINCE HE BEGAN
TO MOUNT UPWARD AND TODAY IS
THE THIRTEENTH DAY.
It is the perfect symbol of the
Son and his twelve apostles.
THE DARKNESS OF WINTER IS CONQUERED,
TO SHOW THAT SATAN IS CONQUERED.
The sun conquers so that all
may know:
THAT THE ONLY-BEGOTTEN SON OF GOD
TRIUMPHS OVER ALL.
*Hymn 136 "Hail to the Lord's Anointed"
Let us be before our God in
silence.
Unison Prayer:
Wisdom
12:12a, 13, 15, 16, 18
WHO WILL SAY, LORD, "WHAT HAVE
YOU DONE?" FOR THERE IS NOT ANY GOD BESIDES YOU WHOSE CARE IS FOR ALL
PEOPLE...YOU ARE RIGHTEOUS AND YOU RULE ALL THINGS RIGHTEOUSLY...YOUR
STRENGTH IS THE SOURCE OF YOUR RIGHTEOUSNESS...AND ALTHOUGH YOU ARE
SOVEREIGN IN STRENGTH, YOU JUDGE WITH MILDNESS, AND WITH GREAT
FORBEARANCE YOU GOVERN US.
