Welcome to Wayside! We are blessed to have guests among us today as
we begin the Season of Lent. If you are without a church home we invite to
return often to see if this congregation might be a good fit for your spiritual
gifts and needs. Thank you for signing our Fellowship Pad with any
contact information or notes to the church office, feeling free to complete
any blue Prayer Requests for use later in the service.

Unison Prayer of Confession
Rosa Robinson
Lord, we often consider ourselves “good” people. We are here in church
by choice instead of in prison by conviction. We give to worthy projects
and lend a hand to our neighbors. We are upstanding citizens, and we
truly desire a world at peace. But upon closer scrutiny we can see many
instances and attitudes that betray your grace and break your holy law.
Temptations may not be the same for each of us, but all of us have fallen
to sin under one or more of your commandments. Search our hearts
today, show us our faults that offend, and renew us with a right spirit we
pray…in Jesus’ name.
Assurance of Pardon Reading of 1 Peter 3:18-22
Rosa Robinson
L: Friends, hear and believe the good news of the gospel.
P: In Jesus Christ we are, I am, forgiven.
Please join us in thanking accompanist Becky Caplan in the narthex
immediately following today’s worship experience for almost five years of
service to this church. The Fellowship hour on this, her last day with us, is
in her honor. Then please consider participating in the adult Bible Study
class in the Conference Room at 11:00 a.m., or even staying for the
contemporary service at that same time.
