Prayer of Confession

Merciful God, we confess today that our prayers are usually a means of seeking your comfort in the midst of our difficulties. We pray for safety and health, for guidance and grace—all of which you give freely to your people. We acknowledge that we rarely ask you to lead us to dangerous places. We have not sought the courage that allows us to speak openly of our faith. We have not sought the boldness that moves us to love the stranger. Forgive our cautious living and equip us with what we need to engage this dark world with light and love in your name. Begin this work among us in these moments as we continue our confession in silence…

Life of the Congregation**

Pastoral Prayer & The Lord’s PrayerOur 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 evilFor Thine is the kingdom and the

power and the glory forever. Amen.

Offering Our GiftsThe Armor of God John Ness Beck

Put on the full armor of God That you may be able to stand firm!Stand firm, having put on the

breastplate of righteousness,And having shod your feet

with the Gospel of peace,Taking up the shield of faith,And the helmet of salvation,

and the sword of the Spirit which is the word of the God.

Peace my brethren,And love with faith,

from God the FatherAnd the Lord Jesus Christ

Grace be with all those who love our Lord Jesus Christ with a love incorruptible!

Congregation joins in singingCrown Him with many crowns,The Lamb upon His throne.Hark! How the heavenly anthem

drownsAll music but its own!Awake, my soul and sing Of Him who died for thee.And hail Him as thy matchless King, Through all eternity.

Crown Him the Lord of life, Who triumphed o’er the grave,And rose victorious in the strife For those He came to save;His glories now we sing Who died and rose on high,Who died, eternal life to bring, And lives that death may die.

Amen.

The purpose of IRONMEN is simple: To encourage and equip men to become a positive impact for Jesus at home, at work, and in the community. God’s Word clearly demonstrates that He did not intend for us to live independently, but interdependently, by connecting with one another. Our hearts confirm this need for us to encourage one another and to challenge one another.

IRONMEN meets on Tuesday mornings from 7:00 am to 8:00 am in the Summit (upstairs) of the Lodge.

“As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.”

—Proverbs 27:17
