Today’s Announcements

Fall Festival

Sun. Oct. 15, Following the Service, Fellowship Hall & Parking Lot

Join us at TCBC’s annual Fall Festival for all ages. We will start with lunch together in the fellowship hall and then move outdoors for a variety of games and fall activities. Parking on 10/15 – The parking Lot will be closed off all morning. Seniors and those with mobility issues may park north of the church in the spaces by the Greek house. Entrance is off Lincoln Ave. (Please do not park there on Oct. 15 if you’re able to walk further.) Bakers, start preparing now for our Dessert Baking Competition! (More details to come) Interested in helping run a booth, do set up and take down? Please reach out to Melissa (megli@tcbc.cc). Candy is still being collected, as well. It can be dropped off in the foyer. Look for TCBeastie!

Small Groups

Small Groups are where you can get to know others, study the Bible in an informal setting, be encouraged in your Christian walk, and serve and be served in times of need. TCBC has groups with members of all ages and places of life, meeting on different schedules, all ready to welcome visitors and new members. Fall is a great time to explore the possibilities and get in the Small Group habit. You can get more information on the web site and can contact Pastor Jon for help in getting matched with a group.

Great Mattress Run

Sun. Oct. 8, 4 p.m. Youth Building

The youth group will be holding their annual Great Mattress Run. While the event is largely for middle and high schoolers, we would love to invite anyone else no matter what age to come and be a designated GMR “Cop.” These “cops” get to patrol campus, looking for groups with mattresses and attempt to detain them and make them do “fun” things (like serenade strangers). Please contact Karl Knox (kknox@tcbc.cc) if you would like to join, or want more information.

Order of Service

Follow along with us as we worship together.

Welcome

We are so glad you’re here!

*We open our Zoom room at 9:45 am, so feel free to join, introduce yourself in the chat box. We also invite you to turn your video on during the service if you are comfortable!

Jeremiah 31:3-6, 10-12

Leader: I have loved you with an everlasting love; therefore I have continued my faithfulness to you. Again I will build you, and you shall be built, O virgin Israel! Again you shall adorn yourself with tambourines and shall go forth in the dance of the merrymakers.

People: Again you shall plant vineyards on the mountains of Samaria; the planters shall plant and shall enjoy the fruit. 

Leader: For there shall be a day when watchmen will call in the hill country of Ephraim: ‘Arise, and let us go up to Zion, to the Lord our God.’”

People: “Hear the word of the Lord, O nations, and declare it in the coastlands far away; say, ‘He who scattered Israel will gather him, and will keep him as a shepherd keeps his flock.’

People:   For the Lord has ransomed Jacob and has redeemed him from hands too strong for him.

Song of Worship: Holy, Holy, Holy

Verse 1
Holy holy holy
Lord God Almighty
Early in the morning
Our song shall rise to Thee
Holy holy holy
Merciful and mighty
God in three persons
Blessed Trinity

Verse 2
Holy holy holy
All the saints adore Thee
Casting down their golden crowns
Around the glassy sea
Cherubim and seraphim
Falling down before Thee
Which wert and art
And evermore shalt be

Verse 3
Holy holy holy
Though the darkness hide Thee
Though the eye of sinful man
Thy glory may not see
Only Thou art holy
There is none beside Thee
Perfect in power
In love and purity

Verse 4
Holy holy holy
Lord God Almighty
All Thy works shall praise Thy name
In earth and sky and sea
Holy holy holy
Merciful and mighty
God in three persons
Blessed Trinity

Congregational Prayer

Call to Confession

ALL: Most merciful God, we confess that we have sinned against you in thought, word, and deed, by what we have done, and by what we have left undone. We have not loved you with our whole heart; we have not loved our neighbors as ourselves. We are truly sorry and we humbly repent. For the sake of your Son Jesus Christ, have mercy on us and forgive us; that we may delight in your will, and walk in your ways, to the glory of your Name. Amen. 

Leader: Lord, you are full of compassion and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy; there is always forgiveness with you! Restore to us the joy of your salvation; bind up that which is broken, give light to our minds, strength to our wills, and rest to our souls. Speak to each of us, and let your word abide with us until it has wrought in us your holy will. Amen.

Message

 
 
 
31When the Lord saw that Leah was hated, he opened her womb, but Rachel was barren. 32And Leah conceived and bore a son, and she called his name Reuben, for she said, “Because the Lord has looked upon my affliction; for now my husband will love me.” 33She conceived again and bore a son, and said, “Because the Lord has heard that I am hated, he has given me this son also.” And she called his name Simeon. 34Again she conceived and bore a son, and said, “Now this time my husband will be attached to me, because I have borne him three sons.” Therefore his name was called Levi. 35And she conceived again and bore a son, and said, “This time I will praise the Lord.” Therefore she called his name Judah. Then she ceased bearing.

Apostle's Creed

I believe in God, the Father almighty,
   creator of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord,
     who was conceived by the Holy Spirit
     and born of the virgin Mary.
     He suffered under Pontius Pilate,
     was crucified, died, and was buried;
     he descended to hell.
     The third day he rose again from the dead.
     He ascended to heaven
     and is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty.
     From there he will come to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
     the holy catholic* church,
     the communion of saints,
     the forgiveness of sins,
     the resurrection of the body,
     and the life everlasting. Amen.
*that is, the true Christian church of all times and all places

Communion

We take the elements together.

Verse 1
Out of my bondage sorrow and night

Out of my wanting and into Thy wealth
Out of my sin and into Thyself
Jesus I come to Thee

Verse 2
Out of my shameful failure and loss

Out of earths sorrows into Thy balm
Out of lifes storms and into Thy calm
Out of distress into jubilant psalm

Verse 3
Out of unrest and arrogant pride

Out of myself to dwell in Thy love
Out of despair into raptures above
Upward forever on wings like a dove
Jesus I come to Thee

Verse 4
Out of the fear and dread of the tomb
Jesus I come Jesus I come
Into the joy and light of Thy home
Jesus I come to Thee
Out of the depths of ruin untold
Into the peace of Thy sheltering fold
Ever Thy glorious face to behold
Jesus I come to Thee

Song of Worship: This is My Father's World

Verse 1
This is my Father’s world
And to my list’ning ears
All nature sings and ’round me rings
Music of the spheres

Chorus 1
This is my Father’s world
I rest me in the thought
Of rocks and trees of skies and seas
His hand the wonders wrought

Verse 2
This is my Father’s world
The birds their carols raise
The morning light the lily white
Declare their Maker’s praise

Chorus 2
This is my Father’s world
He shines in all that’s fair
In the rust’ling grass I hear Him pass
He speaks to me ev’rywhere

Verse 3
This is my Father’s world
O let me ne’er forget
And though the wrong seems oft so strong
God is the Ruler yet
And though the wrong seems oft so strong
God is the Ruler yet

Chorus 3
This is my Father’s world
Why should my heart be sad
The Lord is King let the heavens ring
God reigns let the earth be glad
The Lord is King let the heavens ring
God reigns let the earth be glad

Bridge
The Lord is King let the heavens ring
The Lord is King let the heavens ring (3X)
God reigns
God reigns
God reigns
God reigns
