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.

Amen. *Prayer of Confession Rev. Dr. Dan Turis All: Generous God, we confess a faith too easily separated from action. We bury gifts, delegate compassion, admire service, and leave neighbors without help. We forget that every member belongs to every other. Forgive our barren profession of our faith. Through Christ, make our faith visible in love. Amen. *Moments of Silent Confession

Dr. Dan Turis One: Hear the gospel: Jesus Christ is faithfulness made visible. He served us according to our need, gave himself according to his ability, and rose to share his life with us. In him, empty faith is forgiven and living faith is bestowed. The Spirit distributes gifts, joins the saints, and makes love fruitful through daily service. *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 A Mighty Fortress Arr. Curtis Hanson Covenant Choir; Layden Dukes, Trumpet A mighty fortress is our God, a sword and shield victorious; he breaks the cruel oppressor’s rod and wins salvation glorious. The old satanic foe has sworn to work us woe! With craft and dreadful might he arms himself to fight, on earth he has no equal. A mighty fortress is our God, a bulwark never failing. Our helper, he, amid the flood of mortal ills prevailing. For still our ancient foe doth seek to work us woe; his craft and power are great, and, armed with cruel hate, on earth is not his equal. No strength of ours can match his might! We would be lost, rejected. But now a champion comes to fight, whom God himself elected. You ask who this may be? The Lord of hosts is he! Christ Jesus, mighty Lord, God’s only Son adored. He holds the field victorious. God’s word forever shall abide, no thanks to foes, who fear it; for God himself fights by our side with weapons of the Spirit. Were they to take our house, goods, honor, child or spouse, though life be wrenched away they cannot win the day. His Kingdom is forever! Prayers of the People 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.)

Tom Fettke Covenant Choir God is our refuge and strength through endless days, and when the whole earth trembles our hearts are not afraid. Mountains fall into the sea, foaming waters roar, our God, the Lord, walks to our side, his hands holding ours forevermore. Nations are raging, false kingdoms raise a sword. But when God’s voice thunders, they melt before his word. In every corner of the earth, he causes wars to cease. He breaks the bow, he rends the spear, his hands reaching down to bring us peace. Be still and know God; praise and glory now proclaim. All tribes and all nations now magnify his name. Let all rejoice and honor him until the final day when we shall live eternally, our hands lifted high in grateful praise. Amen! Arr. Ruth Elaine Schram *Doxology # 572 Praise God from Whom All Blessings Flow At this time all children are invited to go to Children’s Church Praise God from whom all blessing flow, praise him, all creatures here below, praise him above, ye heav’nly host; praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Amen. *Prayer of Dedication *Hymn #28 Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing Scripture Lesson James 2:14–17: What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? 15 Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. 16 If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? 17 In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead. 1 Peter 4:8–11: Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins. 9 Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling. 10 Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms. 11 If anyone speaks, they should do so as one who speaks the very words of God. If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen. One: This is God’s Word for God’s people. All: Thanks be to God. Sermon Faith Made Visible Rev. Dr. Dan Turis
