THE LORD’S PRAYER
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 trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the Kingdom, and the power and the glory, forever. Amen!

Announcements

CHURCH CLEAN-UP DAY TODAY
Today after worship, we will hold an all-church cleanup day to clean off the construction dust, finish putting things back, and get the building ready for full use again. Please plan to stay and help out. Sandwiches will be served!

SUNFLOWER GARDEN
Please spread the word about our sunflower garden in the back of the church, near the basketball goal. This is a great place to take fall photos with your friends and family. Please tag the church if you post any sunflower photos online. Encourage others to come visit and take photos there as well!

WEEKLY CALL TO PRAYER FOR OUR CHURCH
As LFCC moves forward to spread the Good News, all of us are needed to participate in intentional prayer for our congregation. Each Monday at 6 pm, you are encouraged to pause for a few minutes to pray for God’s guidance as we continue the work of discerning God’s path for our church. You can pray wherever you are, in whatever way feels most comfortable for you. If you are not able to pause and pray Mondays at 6 pm, please choose a different time to set aside for intentional prayer for LFCC. We need all of our prayers to guide our church forward.
