| Minister: |
Almighty God, unto who all hearts are open, all desires known, and from whom
no secrets are hid: Cleanse the thoughts of our hearts by the inspiration of Thy Holy Spirit, that we may perfectly love Thee, and worthily magnify Thy Holy Name; through Christ Jesus, our Lord. AMEN. |
| Minister & Congregation |
Praise God from whom all blessings flow Praise Him all creatures here below. Praise Him above ye heavenly host Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. AMEN |
| Minister: | 1 Preserve me, O God, for in You I put my trust. |
| People: | 2 O my soul, you have said to the LORD, “You are my Lord, My goodness is nothing apart from You.” |
| Minister: | 3 As for the saints who are on the earth, “They are the excellent ones, in whom is all my delight.” |
| People: | 4 Their sorrows shall be multiplied who hasten after another god; Their drink offerings of blood I will not offer, Nor take up their names on my lips. |
| Minister: | 5 O LORD, You are the portion of my inheritance and my cup; You maintain my lot. |
| People: | 6 The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places; Yes, I have a good inheritance. |
| Minister: | 7 I will bless the LORD who has given me counsel; My heart also instructs me in the night seasons. |
| People: | 8 I have set the LORD always before me; Because He is at my right hand I shall not be moved. |
| Minister: | 9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoices; My flesh also will rest in hope. |
| People:: | 10 For You will not leave my soul in Sheol, Nor will You allow Your Holy One to see corruption. |
| ALL: | 11 You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore. |
| Choir & Congregation | He is Lord! He is Lord! He has risen from the dead and He is Lord. Every knee shall bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. |
| All things come of Thee O Lord . . . And of Thine own, have we given Thee. AMEN. |
| Preface | From all that dwell below the skies; Let the Creator's praise arise; Let the Redeemer's name be sung, Through Every land by every tongue. |
|
| Summary | Hear what Christ our Savior saith, "You shall love the Lord your God with
all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the
first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, you shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets. |
|
| Gloria Patri | Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost; As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, World without end. Amen. |

| On behalf of the members of Macedonia AME Church I want to welcome you to
the Church and thank you for worshipping with us. We pray that you have been
blessed by your experience with the Lord at our Church home. Feel free to
take this bulletin with you. We have been
blessed by your presence here today.
As you may have noticed, after the message, we make the Invitation to Christian Discipleship. This is the opportunity for those who have not accepted Christ as Savior or who are not sure about their personal salvation to come forward and accept Christ. If you need additional information of have questions regarding what this means, do not hesitate to contact Pastor Paris or a member of the church immediately after the benediction. If you are a visitor seeking a church home, or need the services of a Minister of the Gospel of Christ Jesus, please contact Pastor Paris. His cell phone is: 972-365-5770, or the church: 972-962-3594, or at home: 817-202-8017. Pastor Paris' email address is: pastor101@hughes.net.
