Mark 15:33-39
33 When it was noon, darkness came over the whole land until three in the
afternoon. 34 At three o’clock Jesus cried out with a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lema
sabachthani?” which means, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”35
When some of the bystanders heard it, they said, “Listen, he is calling for Elijah.”
36 And someone ran, filled a sponge with sour wine, put it on a stick, and gave it to
him to drink, saying, “Wait, let us see whether Elijah will come to take him down.”
37 Then Jesus gave a loud cry and breathed his last. 38 And the curtain of the
temple was torn in two, from top to bottom. 39 Now when the centurion, who stood
facing him, saw that in this way he breathed his last, he said, “Truly this man was
God’s Son!”
It is a joy to gather together today. Our hope is that through word, music,
fellowship and prayer, you will experience the presence of God in your life. We are
grateful to have those who are our guests in worship today. During the early part
of the service we ask everyone to sign our Friendship Pads or sheets so that we
may have a record of your attendance. If you are a guest and would like more
information about our church, please leave us your contact information. If you are
a member, our Congregational Care team will be checking for people who have
missed four Sundays in a row and making a contact to share our concern and see if
there is a need for which we could offer support. We would appreciate each person
signing the Friendship Pads in order to have accurate information. We don't want
someone to be absent for several Sundays and not know they are missed. This
system will help us more effectively extend our care for one another. Those who
are interested in joining First UMC Mocksville are asked to contact Pastor Glenn
at 336.751.2503
Recent messages are on the church website: www.firstumcmocksville.org. If
Pastor Glenn is needed after office hours, he can be reached at his cell number,
336.813.0425. Bulletins for Kids are available in the narthex of the Sanctuary and
in the lobby of the Family Life Center. Bulletins contain Biblical learning activities
for children ages 3-6 and 7-12.
We want to thank Megan Seaford for her service as one of our Nursery Workers.
Due to other commitments Megan has decided to step down from this position.
We have been blessed by her service to Christ, our children and their families.
In the meantime Amanda Harris has agreed to cover the nursery each week while
we seek someone to fill the vacant slot. Amanda and Megan have been sharing the
job thus far on alternating Sundays. If you or someone you know is interested,
please submit an application which is available along with a job description in the
church office. The paid nursery workers alternate weeks and work with volunteers
during the two worship services and Sunday school.
