I believe in God the Father Almighty,
Maker of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ,
His only Son our Lod, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, dead, and buried;
He descended into hell; the third day He rose again from the dead;
He ascended into heaven, and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty;
from thence He shall come to judge the quick and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy universal church,
the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.


response: 70, Isaiah 42
Here is my servant, whom I uphold, my chosen one in whom I delight;
I will put my Spirit on him and he will bring justice to the nations.
He will not shout or cry out, or raise his voice in the streets.
A bruised reed he will not break, and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out. In faithfulness he will bring forth justice;
he will not falter or be discouraged till he establishes justice on earth.
In his law the islands will put their hope.
I, the LORD, have called you in righteousness; I will take hold of your hand
I will keep you and will make you to be a covenant for the people and a light for the Gentiles,
to open eyes that are blind, to free captives from prison and
to release from the dungeon those who sit in darkness.


hymnal 377
1 Guide me, O Thou great Jehovah, Pilgrim through this barren land;
I am weak, but Thou art mighty; hold me with Thy powerful hand;
Bread of heaven, Bread of heaven, Feed me till I want no more,
Feed me till I want no more.
2 Open now the crystal fountain, whence the healing stream doth flow;
Let the fire and cloudy pillar lead me all my journey through;
Strong Deliverer, strong Deliverer, be thou my Strength and Shield
Be Thou still my Strength and Shield.
3 When I tread the verge of Jordan, bid my anxious fears subside;
Death of death, and hell's Destruction, land me safe on Canaan's side;
Songs of praises, songs of praises I will ever give to Thee,
I will ever give to Thee. amen.


hymnal 633
Take these gifts, take these gifts, O our God:
All we have, all we have comes from you.
With our voices raised in thanks, Lord, we give to you.
Amen.

John 4:32-42
32 But he said to them, "I have food to eat that you know nothing about."
33 Then his disciples said to each other, "Could someone have brought him food?"
34 "My food," said Jesus, "is to do the will of him who sent me and to finish his work.
35 Do you not say, 'Four months more and then the harvest'? I tell you, open your eyes and look at the fields! They are ripe for harvest.
36 Even now the reaper draws his wages, even now he harvests the crop for eternal life, so that the sower and the reaper may be glad together.
37 Thus the saying 'One sows and another reaps' is true.
38 I sent you to reap what you have not worked for. Others have done the hard work, and you have reaped the benefits of their labor."
39 Many of the Samaritans from that town believed in him because of the woman's testimony, "He told me everything I ever did."
40 So when the Samaritans came to him, they urged him to stay with them, and he stayed two days.
41 And because of his words many more became believers.
42 They said to the woman, "We no longer believe just because of what you said; now we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this man really is the Savior of the world."


hymnal 430
1 'Tis so sweet to walk with Jesus, step by step and day by day;
Stepping in His very footprints, walking with Him all the way.
Step by step, step by step, I would walk with Jesus,
all the day, all the way, keeping step with Jesus.
2 Though like little children we stand, without wisdom, wit or strength
Jesus leads us, safe, by the hand, step by step the journey's length
Step by step, step by step, I would walk with Jesus,
all the day, all the way, keeping step with Jesus.
3 Whether through the meadows and flowers or harsh vales, with feet that bleed.
Where He goes, the way will be ours, step by step as He may lead
Step by step, step by step, I would walk with Jesus,
all the day, all the way, keeping step with Jesus.
4 Till like Enoch, we walk with God, raised to heaven and heaven's reward
We would walk in faith, as he trod, step by step, with Christ our Lord
Step by step, step by step, I would walk with Jesus,
all the day, all the way, keeping step with Jesus.'
