Prelude

Greeting and Announcements

Preparation for Worship

Call to Confession: All flesh that moved on the earth perished, birds and cattle and beasts and every swarming thing that swarms upon the earth, and all mankind; of all that was on the dry land, all in whose nostrils was the breath of the spirit of life, died. Thus He blotted out every living thing that was upon the face of the land, from man to animals to creeping things and to birds of the sky, and they were blotted out from the earth; and only Noah was left, together with those that were with him in the ark.  The water prevailed upon the earth one hundred and fifty days.         Genesis 7: 21-24

Prayer of Confession

Assurance of Pardoning Grace:  The dove came to him toward evening, and behold, in her beak was a freshly picked olive leaf. So Noah knew that the water was abated from the earth.                                                                       Genesis 8: 11

Call to Worship: Then Noah built an altar to the LORD, and took of every clean animal and of every clean bird and offered burnt offerings on the altar.                                                                                                                                       Genesis 8: 20
