Church Freedom

We look forward to joining you in Worship this Sunday, starting at 11:00AM in the Sanctuary. You can also find our services online at the HVBC YouTube Channel. Today’s sermon is titled, “Church Freedom”. We will be reading from Romans 16:1-16, 21-23, and our Call to Worship comes from Psalm 89.

Call to Worship Psalm 89:1-4, 15-18
Leader: I will sing of your steadfast love, O Lord, forever;
People: With my mouth I will proclaim your faithfulness to all generations.
Leader: I declare that your steadfast love is established forever;
People: Your faithfulness is as firm as the heavens.
Leader: You said, “I have made a covenant with my chosen one,
People: “I have sworn to my servant David:
Leader: “‘I will establish your descendants forever,
People: “And build your throne for all generations.’”
Leader: Happy are the people who know the festal shout,
People: Who walk, O Lord, in the light or your countenance;
Leader: They exult in your name all day long,
People: And extol your righteousness.
Leader: For you are the glory of their strength;
People: By your favor our horn is exalted.
Leader: For our shield belongs to the Lord,
People: Our king to the Holy One of Israel.
