The Lord’s Last Supper
Praise Offering:
***We gather together to share the Lord’s supper,
The Passover meal he shared with His friends;
New Covenant promise, His blood be upon us
To wash us all clean from the stain of our sin.
He asked us to share in this meal together,
Recalling the pain which for us He’d endure;
Then may we together begin to endeavor
To do as He asked and love others more.
Upon His Son’s altar His sacrifice laying
We ask the Father to pardon our sin;
His Son is our brother, let us love one another,
His Spirit be upon us as we gather in!

Sermon and Washing of Feet
As Jesus washed the feet of His disciples to signify both His power to cleanse sin and His willingness to serve those whom He came to save, so I will wash the feet of those whom He has sent me to serve. If you will share in this Holy ritual, please remove one shoe and sock as I remove my outer garment and prepare the washing vessels.
Faith Offering:

***We remember that You broke bread in Your love,
And here commemorate that bread sent from above!

In Your love, that we shall share in it;

We remember that You poured wine for Your friends
And bid them drink of it in love that knows no end!
And we believe that if we drink too,
From Your cup, that we partake of You;

Praise Offering:
**I come to the garden alone while the dew is still on the roses
And in the voice I hear falling on my ear the Son of God reposes!
(Refrain) And He walks with me and He talks with me,
And He tells me I am His own.
And the joy we share as we tarry there
None other has ever known!
He speaks and the sound of His voice is so sweet the birds hush their singing; and the melody that He sings to me within my heart keeps ringing! (Refrain)
I’d stay in the garden with Him though the night around me be falling;
But he bids me go in a voice of woe; His blood and body calling!
(Refrain)
The Library will remain open for prayer until 9PM; stay an hour to share Jesus’ prayer in the Garden.
