OPENING WORDS AND INVOCATION
Pastor James HejI
Good afternoon!
Good afternoon!
Come, let us mingle our memories and our hopes together, for today is a
special day.
Today we celebrate what God has done through the Taylor
Brethren Church for 111 years.
Today we remember lives touched by God: hearts united in a
common mission and hands joined in a partnership of ministry.
We remember and honor people of vision and purpose,
our predecessors in the priesthood of all believers, whose
legacy is love and commitment.
Though our memories may dim with the passage of time, God renews the
faith of generation upon generation.
We are inspired by God's indwelling Spirit, touched by the
witness of the saints, and prepared to follow the Head of
the Church, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, wherever he
may lead in all the years to come.
Let us pray... Amen.

Comments by the Historical Committee
WE READ GOD'S WORD
1
Chronicles
17:16:24-27
'6 Then King David went into the Tent of the Lord's presence, sat
down, and prayed, "I am not worthy of what you have already
done for me, Lord God, nor is my family. 24 Your fame will be great, and
people will forever say, 'The Lord Almighty is God over Israel.' And you
will preserve my dynasty for all time. 25 I have the courage to pray
this prayer to you, my God, because you have revealed all this to me,
your servant, and have told me that you will make my descendants kings.
26 You, Lord, are God, and you have made this wonderful promise to me.
27 I ask you to bless my descendants so that they will continue to enjoy
your favor. You, Lord, have blessed them, and your blessing will rest on
them forever."
