PRELUDE Cindy Gauldin WELCOME AND ANNOUNCEMENTS CALL TO WORSHIP Matthew 2:1-2 * HYMN NO. 63 As With Gladness Men of Old Verses 1-3 * PSALM 23 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: He leadeth me beside still waters. He restoreth my soul: He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name’s sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for Thou art with me; Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: Thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. Amen.
