Sunday, June 30, 2019 • 10:55 am

To those who feel the need of light; to those who find doubts and fears in their hearts;

to those who need courage for their daily tasks; to those who feel lonely and friendless;

to those who wish to give service; to all who, in faith, will support and involve themselves

to the limit of their ability in the work of the Kingdom of God which this church undertakes;

to all who want rest, peace, and happiness — this church invites you to the fellowship of Jesus.

KNOLLWOOD AT WORSHIP

GATHERING FOR WORSHIP

Please silence all electronic devices. Thank you! THE CHIMES

Three chimes are sounded, awakening us to the presence of God, alerting us to the voice of Christ, centering us in the embrace of the Spirit. As we gather, we present ourselves “as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is our spiritual worship.”

“Just a Little Bit” ........................................................................................................................ Andy Wilson VBS Singers

Everybody needs to know they’re loved, that somebody will always be there. God made us to be the hands and feet, to show the world how much Jesus cares. So we will go, we will share everything we have to give, and if it doesn’t seem like much, Just a little bit of love goes a long, long way! Just a little bit of love, and watch the whole world change! Just a little bit of love, walls come fallin’ down with just a little bit of love! We will love ‘cause Jesus first loved us with a love we never could earn. Now we get to be his hands and feet to share his love all over the world. In the name of Jesus, we will light up the world, With the love he’s given to us we’ll light, light light up the world!

TO OUR GUESTS We extend to you a sincere welcome and the hope that you will find your worship experience meaningful.

You are invited to the narthex for a brief time of fellowship following worship where you can meet church members and clergy, and learn more about this congregation. We would ask that you record your visit by filling out the friendship pad in the pew; email addresses are especially helpful. To learn more about Knollwood Baptist Church, find us online at www.knollwood.org. You can also receive our newsletter and email announcements by emailing colleen@knollwood.org, or just call the church office, 725-1343. Sunday School at Knollwood begins at 9:45 a.m. KBC WELCOMING STATEMENT

Knollwood Baptist Church is an inviting, inclusive family of faith open to all persons, whatever their race, gender, socioeconomic status, special needs, or sexual orientation, who want to walk in the way of Jesus. ABOUT OUR WORSHIP

On the Sundays nearest Memorial Day, Independence Day, and Veterans’ Day, our nation’s flag is placed in the narthex in gratitude for those whose national service helped ensure the freedoms we enjoy as Americans.

The music this morning is offered by children who have participated in VBS this past week. We express appreciation to them and VBS music leaders Margaret Wages and Charlotte Brown for their musical offerings this morning.

Today’s Call to Worship and Prayer of Confession were written by Knollwood member Katharine Martin. The acolytes are Colette Causby and Miranda Holden and the crucifer is Virginia Starling. Please silence all electronic devices. Thank you! Printed music used by permission of OneLicense.net #A-724940.

FLOWERS

The flowers in the sanctuary are given to the glory of God and in memory of Hunter “Doug” Agee, Claudia B. Bailey, and Sarah Torrence Agee by Betty B. Agee.

The flowers in the narthex are given to the glory of God and in memory of Gladys and Ray Mims, beloved parents of Chip Mims, and his brother, Joe Mims, by Peggy and Chip Mims.

The white rose on the altar is given by Knollwood Baptist Church in memory of Manford Haxton. It is a symbol of the love and esteem in which this community of faith held him. ABOUT OUR BANNERS

In the Bible and in church tradition, the dove and fire symbolize the Holy Spirit. According to the four Gospels, the Spirit descended on Jesus like a dove at his baptism (Mark 1:10 and parallels). John the Baptist promised the Messiah would baptize with the Holy Spirit “and with fire” (Matthew 3:11; Luke 3:16). From Moses’ encounter with God by the burning bush (Exodus 3:1-6) to the tongues of fire at Pentecost (Acts 2:1-4), fire is a sign of God’s riveting, transforming presence. The Pentecost banner depicts the fire of God’s challenge and the dove of God’s gentle loving care. The artist who designed and painted the Pentecost banner is our own Bambi Setzer. FOR THE CHILDREN

Worship Care is provided for children, infant - kindergarten aged on the first floor of Bldg. B. Children’s Worship meets on the 1st, 3rd and 5th Sundays of the month for 1st through 3rd graders. During the second hymn, children meet their leaders in the narthex to walk to B244, where their parents will pick up their children after the service. For the 2nd and 4th Sundays children are invited to enjoy the worship service with their families. Children’s activity bulletins and crayons are available in the narthex. CHILDREN’S MINISTRY
