Covenant-First Presbyterian Church was founded in 1790, and has been a part of downtown Cincinnati ever since. Our almost 2,000 pound tower bell is from the Paul Revere Foundry in Boston, and first rang from the steeple of one of our earliest buildings. This building was completed in 1875, and the Austin Pipe Organ dates to 1915, with its approximately 3,500 pipes. We have traditional worship with Bible-based preaching each week. Our music program is enhanced by our Music Scholar program and we are excited to have them lead in worship most Sundays. If you need help with directions to restrooms, the fellowship hall, or to the lower level nursery, the person who greeted you this morning will be glad to help you. Children and worship We delight in children, and your children are always welcome to stay with you in worship. However, if you would prefer nursery care for your infants and toddlers, we do have a professionally staffed nursery in the lower level. We invite children ages 2 years to 5 years to participate in Junior Church. If your child wants to participate in Junior Church, you may escort them to the lower level during the singing of the Doxology. You may then pick your child up following the service from the downstairs classrooms. Validated Parking Validated parking is available in the 222 W. 7th St. Garage. Validation is done using your car’s license plate number. Please locate a greeter to complete the validation process which requires your license plate number. Fellowship Time After worship, we invite you to gather with us in Metzger Hall for a reception featuring coffee, treats, and encouraging conversation. Many of us travel from a distance to join together in worship on Sunday mornings, and we find this weekly fellowship time to be a valuable and enriching time for us to catch up and meet new people. Please join us! About us If you are interested in learning more about Covenant-First Presbyterian Church, see your morning greeter, help yourself to anyof the literature located on the back tables, contact the church office at 513-621-4144, or visit our website at covfirstchurch.org.

Dr. Dan Turis Call to Worship Darlene Nored One: Storm-tossed saints, come; the Jesus who steers wrecked ships to mission harbors still writes hope into the margins of your chaos. Prelude Improvisation on Beecher Andrew Hackett, Organist Ringing of the Revere Tower Bell Let the ringing of the bell call our attention away from ourselves and onto the living Triune God: Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. *Hymn #75 Love Divine, All Loves Excelling *Invocation Darlene Nored All: Lord of wind and wave, we bring you our weathered hearts. Some of us feel adrift; others feel shipwrecked. As we hear of Paul’s voyage, anchor us in your sovereignty. Remind us that no storm outruns your promises, no detour escapes your purposes. Let worship today be a safe harbor where fear loosens and faith rises. *Prayer of Confession Rev. Dr. Dan Turis All: Captain of our salvation, we confess that when storms hit, we trust forecasts more than faithfulness. We listen to the loudest fear, not the quiet voice of your Word. We toss cargo you never asked us to carry and cling to plans you may be overturning for our good. We forget, as John Calvin taught, that our hearts find rest only when we “resign ourselves wholly to God.” Instead, we grasp the wheel with white knuckles. Forgive our panic, our quickness to despair, and our slowness to see your hand even in wreckage. *Moments of Silent Confession

Dr. Dan Turis One: Good news: The worst storm has already been spent on Jesus. On the cross, the full fury of judgment fell on him so that it would never fall on you. In rising, he proved that not even death can sink his people. In him, your fearful reactions and faithless words are forgiven. You are bound for a shore you cannot miss, because he has promised to bring you home. Until then, his Spirit rides every wave with you. You are pardoned, protected in the deepest sense, and invited to trust the one who commands the seas. *Gloria Patri Glory Be to the Father Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost; as it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen. Anthem In the Mornin’ Arr. Charles Ives Madeline Jentsch, soprano In the mornin’ when I rise, in the mornin’ when I rise, give me Jesus! You can have all the world, but give me Jesus! ‘Twixt the cradle and the grave, ‘Twixt the cradle and the grave, give me Jesus! You can have all the world but give me Jesus! Lord’s Prayer All: Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever. Amen. Call for the Offering (If you would like to give online see the back of the bulletin.) Offertory Adagio, BWV 564 J.S.

They built a fire and welcomed us all because it was raining and cold. 3 Paul gathered a pile of brushwood and, as he put it on the fire, a viper, driven out by the heat, fastened itself on his hand. 4 When the islanders saw the snake hanging from his hand, they said to each other, “This man must be a murderer; for though he escaped from the sea, the goddess Justice has not allowed him to live.” 5 But Paul shook the snake off into the fire and suffered no ill effects. 6 The people expected him to swell up or suddenly fall dead; but after waiting a long time and seeing nothing unusual happen to him, they changed their minds and said he was a god. 7 There was an estate nearby that belonged to Publius, the chief official of the island. He welcomed us to his home and showed us generous hospitality for three days. 8 His father was sick in bed, suffering from fever and dysentery. Paul went in to see him and, after prayer, placed his hands on him and healed him. 9 When this had happened, the rest of the sick on the island came and were cured. 10 They honored us in many ways; and when we were ready to sail, they furnished us with the supplies we needed.
