Opening the Service
"I rejoiced with those who said to me,
“Let us go to the house of the Lord.”"
Psalm 122:1
Today is a day to rejoice! Why is that? Because being in the presence of the Lord is a privilege. Our hearts are filled with hope when we enter the house of The Lord!
" 11 You turned my wailing into dancing;
you removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy,
12 that my heart may sing your praises and not be silent.
Lord my God, I will praise you forever."
Psalm 30:11-12
Thanks be to God, our sadness has turned into joy and our sorrow into hope. May our mouths be instruments of praise and gratitude to him in this service! Let us give thanks to the Lord, for he has genuinely changed us!
"My heart says of you, “Seek his face!”
Your face, Lord, I will seek.".
Psalm 27:8
With a reverent heart, enter God's presence! The Lord is calling us now to enter his presence. Open your heart and let the Lord make his dwelling now!
"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest."
Matthew 11:28
If you feel tired, Christ wants to ease your pain. He wants to fill your heart with hope, giving you a new perspective. May this moment be your opportunity to enter into his presence!
"Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good;
his love endures forever."
1 Chronicles 16:34
God is good! He is the reason for our praise and gratitude! His love is immeasurable and powerful. Let us give thanks to Him in this service!
"Come, let us return to the Lord.
He has torn us to pieces
but he will heal us;
he has injured us
but he will bind up our wounds.
2 After two days he will revive us;
on the third day he will restore us,
that we may live in his presence."
Hosea 6:1-2
God corrects us for our good. Thanks to his mercy, we receive correction and forgiveness. May this moment be an opportunity to be reconciled with God. He wants to restore us at this time!
Wait for the Lord;
be strong and take heart
and wait for the Lord.
Psalm 27:14
God is the reason for our hope! Our hearts praise and exult in the Lord. This service is the perfect time to praise God, because he will certainly act. And if God is for us, who will be against us?
1 Praise the Lord.
Praise God in his sanctuary;
praise him in his mighty heavens.
2 Praise him for his acts of power;
praise him for his surpassing greatness.
3 Praise him with the sounding of the trumpet,
praise him with the harp and lyre,
4 praise him with timbrel and dancing,
praise him with the strings and pipe,
5 praise him with the clash of cymbals,
praise him with resounding cymbals.6 Let everything that has breath praise the Lord.
Praise the Lord.
Psalm 150:1-6
Let's all praise the Lord! He has done incredible things in our midst. Let's all give him thanks! He deserves all our gratitude. Let's all, with one voice, give thanks to him!
Opening the Holy Communion Service
23 "For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread, 24 and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, “This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me.” 25 In the same way, after supper he took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me.” 26 For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes.
27 So then, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning against the body and blood of the Lord. 28 Everyone ought to examine themselves before they eat of the bread and drink from the cup. 29 For those who eat and drink without discerning the body of Christ eat and drink judgment on themselves."
1 Corinthians 11:23-29
At this moment, we remember Christ's victory over death. We do this with a joyful, reverent and self-searching heart. The sacrifice of the Lamb has saved us! This is cause for rejoicing, but also for repentance and deep gratitude. Take part in this moment with awareness and gratitude.
22 "While they were eating, Jesus took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to his disciples, saying, “Take it; this is my body.”
23 Then he took a cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, and they all drank from it.
24 “This is my blood of the[a] covenant, which is poured out for many,” he said to them. 25 “Truly I tell you, I will not drink again from the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God.”
Mark 14:22-25
Let us do this in memory of Christ: let us eat of the bread and drink of the wine. Let us partake of the Lord's Supper! He shed his blood for us.
14 When the hour came, Jesus and his apostles reclined at the table.15 And he said to them, “I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer. 16 For I tell you, I will not eat it again until it finds fulfillment in the kingdom of God.”
Luke 22:14-16
We shall continue to take part in this, til he comes again! Participating in the Supper is reaffirming Christ's victory in us, it is commitment and communion with Him. Let us eat and drink in his memory. For he who is always faithful will come again!
3 "He was despised and rejected by mankind,
a man of suffering, and familiar with pain.
Like one from whom people hide their faces
he was despised, and we held him in low esteem.4 Surely he took up our pain
and bore our suffering,
yet we considered him punished by God,
stricken by him, and afflicted.
5 But he was pierced for our transgressions,
he was crushed for our iniquities;
the punishment that brought us peace was on him,
and by his wounds we are healed.
6 We all, like sheep, have gone astray,
each of us has turned to our own way;
and the Lord has laid on him
the iniquity of us all.7 He was oppressed and afflicted,
yet he did not open his mouth;
he was led like a lamb to the slaughter,
and as a sheep before its shearers is silent,
so he did not open his mouth."Isaiah 53:3-7
He endured everything in silence: pain, humiliation and disbelief. He endured betrayal, contempt and his own death on the cross. Jesus bore the weight of the world on his shoulders because he had a clear goal: to save us. Christ succeeded! Who could bear all this but God himself? Let's celebrate him!
26 While they were eating, Jesus took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to his disciples, saying, “Take and eat; this is my body.”
27 Then he took a cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you. 28 This is my blood of the[a] covenant,which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins. 29 I tell you, I will not drink from this fruit of the vine from now on until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father’s kingdom.”
30 When they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives."
Matthew 26:26-30
Taking part in the Lord's Supper is a privilege! When we eat the bread and take the cup, we are reaffirming to the world that Jesus Christ has won! This is not a moment of sadness: Jesus died on the cross - he died for us - and on the third day he rose again!
47 Very truly I tell you, the one who believes has eternal life. 48 I am the bread of life. 49 Your ancestors ate the manna in the wilderness, yet they died. 50 But here is the bread that comes down from heaven, which anyone may eat and not die. 51 I am the living bread that came down from heaven. Whoever eats this bread will live forever. This bread is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.”
John 6:47-51
Jesus is the bread of life! He gave himself to satisfy us eternally. At this moment, Christ himself invites us to join him at the table and sup with him. Whoever drinks his blood will never thirst and whoever eats his flesh will never hunger! Only Jesus can satisfy us completely.
55 For my flesh is real food and my blood is real drink. 56 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in them. 57 Just as the living Father sent me and I live because of the Father, so the one who feeds on me will live because of me. 58 This is the bread that came down from heaven. Your ancestors ate manna and died, but whoever feeds on this bread will live forever.”
John 6:55-58
Remain in Christ: eat of the bread and drink of the cup. Do it in memory of him. Remain in him and he will remain in you!

Opening a Youth Service
12 young men and women,
old men and children.13 Let them praise the name of the Lord,
for his name alone is exalted;
his splendor is above the earth and the heavens."Psalm 148:12-13
Let all ages praise the Lord! Children: praise God with your joy. Young people: praise God with your youthfulness. Adults: praise God with all your heart. Seniors: praise God with your experience. Praise the Lord, everyone!
Remember your Creator
in the days of your youth,
before the days of trouble come
and the years approach when you will say,
“I find no pleasure in them”Ecclesiastes 12:1
This is the best time to seek God. Don't put off what you can do today! Praise him in season and out of season.
Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity."
1 Timothy 4:12
Young people, you are a power in the Lord's hands. How many young people - in the Bible - have been used by God? Many! Cling to the Word and let God lead you to his best!
Saying 16
19 Listen, my son, and be wise,
and set your heart on the right path:
20 Do not join those who drink too much wine
or gorge themselves on meat,
21 for drunkards and gluttons become poor,
and drowsiness clothes them in rags.Saying 17
22 Listen to your father, who gave you life,
and do not despise your mother when she is old."Proverbs 23:19-22
God wants you to influence! Build your foundations on the Word of God - and share what truly edifies. In a world that is so dull, God has given us the ability to be salt of the earth. Leave the bad influences behind and influence through Christ!
5 In the same way, you who are younger, submit yourselves to your elders. All of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, because,
“God opposes the proud
but shows favor to the humble.”6 Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time."
1 Peter 5:5-6
Young people, God will exalt you in due time. Don't be anxious about limelight and recognition, everything has its time. Rather, endeavour to do good works and be humble.
Saying 17
22 Listen to your father, who gave you life,
and do not despise your mother when she is old.
23 Buy the truth and do not sell it—
wisdom, instruction and insight as well.
24 The father of a righteous child has great joy;
a man who fathers a wise son rejoices in him.
25 May your father and mother rejoice;
may she who gave you birth be joyful!Saying 18
26 My son, give me your heart
and let your eyes delight in my ways,"Proverbs 23:22-26
Family is the foundation, value it! Remember that family time is not time wasted, but time well invested. Time passes and what has passed does not return. When we strengthen our family ties, we are creating a good structure so that God can be part of our home.
Opening Family Services
28 Ascribe to the Lord, all you families of nations,
ascribe to the Lord glory and strength.
29 Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name;
bring an offering and come before him.
Worship the Lord in the splendor of his holiness.
1 Chronicles 16:28-29
The family is a project that was born in God's heart, reflecting all his love. When we praise God as a family, we strengthen our bonds. Parents, children and grandparents: worship the Lord!
15 But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.”
Joshua 24:15
When the whole family chooses to serve God, everyone is strengthened! God doesn't want to be worshipped by force, he wants to be worshipped because we choose to worship him. When the whole family is aware of this choice, everyone is immensely blessed.
5 Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. 6 These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. 7 Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up."
Deuteronomy 6:5-7
Communication is a fundamental element for the whole family. Without frank conversation, there is no way to have intimacy and trust. In the same way, we can only be intimate with God if we truly open our hearts. Invest in your children, teach them the way with love and patience.
A song of ascents.
1 Blessed are all who fear the Lord,
who walk in obedience to him.
2 You will eat the fruit of your labor;
blessings and prosperity will be yours.
3 Your wife will be like a fruitful vine
within your house;
your children will be like olive shoots
around your table.
4 Yes, this will be the blessing
for the man who fears the Lord.5 May the Lord bless you from Zion;
may you see the prosperity of Jerusalem
all the days of your life.
6 May you live to see your children’s children—
peace be on Israel.Psalm 128:1-6
The man who fears the Lord and truly seeks his presence is blessed. Every effort to grow spiritually is reflected throughout their house. Our God is abundant and overflowing with blessings!
17 But from everlasting to everlasting
the Lord’s love is with those who fear him,
and his righteousness with their children’s children—
18 with those who keep his covenant
and remember to obey his precepts."
Psalm 103:17-18
How good is the family that walks in the precepts, the commands, of the Lord. Like a shoal of fish, everyone is moving in the same direction. This collective pursuit is rewarded by God, who is faithful and takes special care of each one. God's love coats the whole house and the home becomes a beacon of God in the midst of darkness!

12 Praise be to you, Lord;
teach me your decrees."
Psalm 119:11-12

22 Now that you have purified yourselves by obeying the truth so that you have sincere love for each other, love one another deeply, from the heart.23 For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God. 24 For,
“All people are like grass,
and all their glory is like the flowers of the field;
the grass withers and the flowers fall,
25 but the word of the Lord endures forever.”And this is the word that was preached to you."

The Year of the Lord’s Favor
61 The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me,
because the Lord has anointed me
to proclaim good news to the poor.
He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,
to proclaim freedom for the captives
and release from darkness for the prisoners,
2 to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor
and the day of vengeance of our God,
to comfort all who mourn,
3 and provide for those who grieve in Zion—
to bestow on them a crown of beauty
instead of ashes,
the oil of joy
instead of mourning,
and a garment of praise
instead of a spirit of despair.
They will be called oaks of righteousness,
a planting of the Lord
for the display of his splendor."Isaiah 61:1-3
God has anointed us to preach the good news, he has raised us up to proclaim the liberation of those imprisoned by sin. Today, as ambassadors of freedom in Christ, we have the responsibility to proclaim the good news of the Lord Jesus, breaking chains and setting lives free!
Praise and Worship Services

The Father seeks true worshippers! Place your heart on the altar and pour out all your praise as a sweet offering to God. Let's worship in spirit and in truth.

pray continually,"
1 Thessalonians 5:17
Like a flame that never goes out, let us pray without ceasing! May faith be the fuel that keeps this flame burning. May our minds always be connected to God!
if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hearfrom heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land."
2 Chronicles 7:14
God is looking for true worshipers. And so, to truly worship, we need to place ourselves completely in his presence. The Kingdom of God is built by effort, so People of God, spare no effort in entering his presence.
9 “This, then, is how you should pray:
“‘Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
10 your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
11 Give us today our daily bread.
12 And forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
13 And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from the evil one."Matthew 6:9-13
The Lord's Prayer is inspirational. Jesus instructs us day after day, he is the bread that feeds and satiates us. May this prayer encourage us to have greater communion with him.
2 We always thank God for all of you and continually mention you in our prayers. 3 We remember before our God and Father your work produced by faith, your labor prompted by love, and your endurance inspired by hope in our Lord Jesus Christ."
1 Thessalonians 1:2-3
Let's pray for one another! Our dedication to praying for our neighbour is a demonstration of love. When we know that someone is praying for us, we feel the comfort of God's love.
bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you.
Luke 6:28
Prayer is not a weapon. May our prayer move the heavens and may those who mistreat us be touched by God!
Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
Mark 14:38
When we pray, we go into a state of alertness. When we close our eyes to pray, we are making ourselves ready to seek God. Praying is the best way to stay alert and cast our minds beyond the flesh.
7 Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.
8 Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. 9 Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that the family of believers throughout the world is undergoing the same kind of sufferings.
10 And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast. 11 To him be the power for ever and ever. Amen.
1 Peter 5:7-11
Prayer is our escape valve. When we pray, we are in direct contact with God through Jesus. All our suffering and pain can be shared with God; only He can bear all our anguish. In those moments when it seems like "I can take no more", close your eyes and talk to Him. Let the Lord ease your heart.
And pray that we may be delivered from wicked and evil people, for not everyone has faith."
Thessalonians 3:2
Seek God's presence continually. Only God can preserve our lives. Don't be overcome by fear, ask God to keep you safe and at peace.

And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation. 20 We are therefore Christ’s ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us.
