Building dedication service May 16

On May 16 at six o' clock in the evening we will gather to worship God through the dedication of our church building.  This is a "don't miss" event.  Here is an excerpt from that night.

The minister shall say:
Beloved in the lord, we are gathered to consecrate and set apart this house for the worship of the one living and true God. Let us therefore dedicate this place to its proper and sacred uses.

Then the minister and the people shall say responsively:
To You, God and Father of Jesus Christ, our Lord:
We dedicate this house.

To You, eternal Son of God, Redeemer of Your people
and Head of they church:
We dedicate this house.

To You, Spirit of God, lord and giver of life, our teacher,
sanctifier and comforter:
We dedicate this house.
