Prelude
Welcome | Rev. Paul Yoo, Senior Director of Mercy & Justice
Call to Worship | From Psalm 99
Leader: The King is mighty, he loves justice—he is holy.
All: Exalt the Lord our God and worship at his holy mountain, for the Lord our God is holy.
Song of Praise | Holy, Holy, Holy
Holy, holy, holy
Lord God Almighty
Early in the morning
Our song shall rise to thee
Holy, holy, holy,
Merciful and mighty
God in three persons
Blessed Trinity
Holy, holy, holy
All the saints adore thee
Casting down their golden crowns
Around the glassy sea
Cherubim and seraphim
Falling down before thee
Who was, and is
And evermore shall be
Holy, holy, holy
Though the darkness hide thee
Though the eyes of sinful man
Thy glory may not see
Only thou art holy
There is none beside thee
Perfect in power
In love, and purity
Holy, holy, holy
Lord God Almighty
All thy works shall praise thy name
In earth, and sky, and sea
Holy, holy, holy
Merciful and mighty
God in three persons
Blessed Trinity
Song of Praise | Honey in the Rock
(Chorus)
There’s honey in the rock
Water in the stone
Manna on the ground
No matter where I go
I don’t need to worry
Now that I know
Everything I need You’ve got
There’s honey in the rock
Praying for a miracle
Thirsty for the Living Well
Only You can satisfy
Sweetness at the mercy seat
Now I’ve tasted it’s not hard to see
Only You can satisfy
(Chorus)
There’s honey in the rock (4X)
Freedom where the Spirit is
Bounty in the wilderness
You will always satisfy
(Chorus)
There’s honey in the rock
Purpose in Your plan
Power in the blood
Healing in Your hands
Started flowing when You said it is done
Everything You did’s enough
I keep looking
I keep finding
You keep giving
Keep providing
I have all that I need
You are all that I need
I keep praying
You keep moving
I keep praising
You keep proving
I have all that I need
You are all that I need
I have all that I need
You are all that I need
(Chorus)
There’s honey in the rock
Purpose in Your plan
Power in the blood
Healing in Your hands
Started flowing when You said it is done
Jesus who You are is enough
There’s honey in the rock
There’s honey in the rock
There’s honey in the rock
Oh how sweet
How sweet it is to trust in You Jesus
Oh how sweet
How sweet it is to trust in You Jesus
Oh how sweet
How sweet it is to trust in You Jesus
Prayer of Adoration (concluded by the Lord’s Prayer)
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 and ever. Amen.

Testimony of Prayer
Song of Praise | What a Friend We Have in Jesus
What a Friend we have in Jesus
All our sins and griefs to bear
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer
O what peace we often forfeit
O what needless pain we bear
All because we do not carry
Everything to God in prayer.
Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged
Take it to the Lord in prayer
Can we find a friend so faithful
Who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness
Take it to the Lord in prayer
(Chorus)
What a friend, what a friend
What a friend we have in Jesus
What a friend, what a friend
What a friend we have
Are we weak and heavy laden
Cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Savior, still our refuge
Take it to the Lord in prayer
Do your friends despise, forsake you?
Take it to the Lord in prayer
In His arms He’ll take and shield you;
You will find a solace there.
(Chorus x 2)
Greetings and Announcements
Scripture Reading | Jeremiah 29:4-14
4 This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says to all those I carried into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon: 5 “Build houses and settle down; plant gardens and eat what they produce. 6 Marry and have sons and daughters; find wives for your sons and give your daughters in marriage, so that they too may have sons and daughters. Increase in number there; do not decrease. 7 Also, seek the peace and prosperity of the city to which I have carried you into exile. Pray to the Lord for it, because if it prospers, you too will prosper.” 8 Yes, this is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: “Do not let the prophets and diviners among you deceive you. Do not listen to the dreams you encourage them to have. 9 They are prophesying lies to you in my name. I have not sent them,” declares the Lord.
10 This is what the Lord says: “When seventy years are completed for Babylon, I will come to you and fulfill my good promise to bring you back to this place. 11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. 12 Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. 13 You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. 14 I will be found by you,” declares the Lord, “and will bring you back from captivity. I will gather you from all the nations and places where I have banished you,” declares the Lord, “and will bring you back to the place from which I carried you into exile.” (NIV)
Sermon | Hope and Home by Rev. Bijan Mirtolooi
Reflection Song | Draw Near, Draw Water
Sing, for the day is coming
When your grief will pass away
Sing in the dark, keep humming
For the night will fold into day
Sing, for the tide is turning
And your feet will touch the sand
Sing, keep your fire burning
Lift your head, your voice, your hands
(Chorus)
Draw near, draw water
From the springs of God’s saving power
Draw near my soul
For this is your hour
Sing, for a friend might hear you
And with you lift up their voice
Sing, and a neighbor near you
Might see God and with you rejoice
Sing in the stormy weather
When you’re lost and feel far from home
Sing so you will remember
God is here and you’re not alone
(Chorus)
Sing with the stones and sidewalks
Who cry out in praise of the Name
Sing in your heart and don’t stop
Jesus Christ is coming again
(Chorus)
Closing Song | Joy Comes in the Morning
Praise you when I’m overwhelmed
Praise you in my brokenness
Praise you so I don’t forget
Who you are
Who you are
Praise you when I’ve lost my way
Praise you when I’m so afraid
Praise you ‘cause it doesn’t change
Who you are
Who you are
(Chorus x 2)
Weeping may endure for the night
But joy comes in the morning
Praise you when I’m empty-handed
Praise you when I feel abandoned
Praise you cause I’m not alone
You see me
You see me
Praise you when the road is long
Praise you when my faith is gone
Praise you cause you hear the song
I’m singing
I’m singing
I will fear no evil
I know you are with me
Closer than I think you are
Closer than I think you are
Fighting all my battles
Lighting every shadow
Closer than I think you are
Closer than I think you are
Benediction and Dismissal
Minister: Let us go forth to serve the world as those who love our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
All: Thanks be to God!
