Welcome/A Call to Prayer
Evan Taylor
Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.

All are invited to participate;
please eat the bread and drink the cup as they are passed to you.
*Some of you may wish to stand, and some of you may not. It is not
your standing or sitting that God notices, but rather what is in your
heart.

Today’s Reading from Scripture Psalm 8
Announcements for Sunday, November 16, 2014
We give a warm East Side welcome to our guests today, the Will Rogers
College High School Cheer Team!
G@A, brilliant Lord,
yours is a household name.
Nursing infants gurgle choruses about you;
toddlers shout the songs
That drown out enemy talk,
and silence atheist babble.

I look up at your macro-skies, dark and enormous,
your handmade sky-jewelry,
Moon and stars mounted in their settings.
Then I look at my micro-self and wonder,
Why do you bother with us?
Why take a second look our way?
3-4
Yet we’ve so narrowly missed being gods,
bright with Eden’s dawn light.
You put us in charge of your handcrafted world,
repeated to us your Genesis-charge,
Made us lords of sheep and cattle,
even animals out in the wild,
Birds flying and fish swimming,
whales singing in the ocean deeps.
CWF Circle 6 meets tomorrow at 6 PM in the Parlor. All ladies are welcome!
This Thursday, November 20, will be the next Service Day to assemble and
tie quilts for Emergency Infant Services. Plan to meet in the Quilters room
from 10-2. The Service Day team will take December off and resume in
January.
Kids Night Out Classic Klub aka K.N.O.C.K. night, is Friday, Nov. 21. If
you would like to make a reservation for your youngster(s), please let the
office know by Wednesday.
This year’s turkey drive is a goal of 20 turkeys for needy families of WRHS
students. Can you help? See Evan or check the newsletter for more info.
