~ Based on Exodus 20 ~
Leader: God spoke His Holy Law to our forefathers saying, I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.
You shall have no other gods before Me. You shall not make for yourself any carved image, or any likeness of anything. You shall now bow down to them or serve them. You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes His name in vain. Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Honour your father and mother. You shall not murder. You shall not commit adultery. You shall not steal. You shall not bear false witness against your neighbour. You shall not covetanything that is your neighbours.
Prayer of Confession
~ Silent Confession & Reflection ~
The Words of The Gospel
~ Galatians 3 & 2 Timothy 1 ~
Leader: The Scriptures tell us, Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us.
Know that God saved us and called us to a holy calling, not because of our works but because of his own purpose and grace, which he gave us in Christ Jesus before the ages began, and which now has been manifested through the appear- ing of our Saviour, Christ Jesus, who abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel.

All I Have Is Christ
I once was lost in darkest night Yet thought I knew the way The sin that promised joy and life Had led me to the grave I had no hope that You would own A rebel to Your will And if You had not loved me first I would refuse You still
But as I ran my hell-bound race Indifferent to the cost You looked upon my helpless state And led me to the cross And I beheld Gods love displayed You suffered in my place You bore the wrath reserved for me Now all I know is grace
chorus Hallelujah! All I have is Christ Hallelujah!

And let my song forever be My only boast is You
(repeat chorus)

Our Confession of Faith
~ Psalm 23 ~
Leader: Let us confess our trust and confidence in Christ, our God and Good Shepherd.
Unison: The Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not be in want. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for His names sake.
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I will fear no evil, for you are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
The Benediction
~ 2 Thessalonians 2:16-17 ~
Leader: Now may our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God our Father, who loved us and gave us eternal comfort and good hope through grace, comfort your hearts and establish them in every good work and word.
Unison: Amen! NewCityChurch Calgary,Alberta
