We conclude our epic journey through Matthew’s Gospel at mgpc tomorrow, preparing to continue on in our own ‘Matthew 29′ with Jesus’ great commission in Matthew 28:16-20.
On a day which also marks the 17th anniversary of the dedication of our present church building our songs of preparation, My Heart Is Filled With Thankfulness and Receive The Glory express thanksgiving to God, a theme which will extend into our singing of O God, Give Us Your Blessing (Psalm 67).
The call to worship will come from Psalm 117, after which we’ll read the Ten Commandments. Rock Of Ages will be the song of confession with our affirmation of faith coming in the form of the Apostles’ Creed and Glory To God, The Father, God, The Son.
We’ll experience God’s Word first from Jeremiah 23:1-22 and hear God’s promise to provide shepherds and raise up a righteous branch from David to reign as king.
We’ve A Story To Tell To The Nations will be part response to that promise, and part anticipation for our final reading from Matthew.
After hearing Matthew 28:16-20, Ian Touzel will speak to us of the great commission which Jesus provides for His church.
We’ll share our prayers of thanksgiving and for other’s needs, give our offerings and conclude worship singing Yours Is The Kingdom.
