Sermon by Rev. Matthew J. van Maastricht
Scripture: John 6:35-69
Choir Anthem:
"Make This Church a Welcome Place"
Lord of mercy, Lord of grace,
make this church a welcome place.
To the hungry and the poor,
may there be an open door.
To the weary and distressed,
may this be a place of rest.
Lord of mercy, Lord of grace,
make this church a welcome place.
Reaching out to others,
serving both great and small,
sharing our abundance with one and all.
Lord of mercy, Lord of grace,
make this church a holy place,
where we come to seek the truth;
fill our hearts and worship you
in our words and through our deeds, knowing you will meet our needs.
Lord of mercy, Lord of grace,
make this church a welcome place. Amen.
