CALL TO WORSHIP
O Lord our God, we praise you.
We cried to you for help, and you answered us.
You restored our lives.
You rescued us from the grave.
Come. Let us worship our risen Savior together.

PRAYER OF CONFESSION
Lord God, in the light of your glory, we see the evil we do, the suffering we cause, the good we refuse, and the truth we deny. Heal us of our many sins, wash us in your mercy, and feed us with your grace, so we may follow your way and tell the good news of the gospel. (Silent Confession)
ASSURANCE OF GRACE
† SHARING THE PEACE OF CHRIST The peace of Christ be with you. And also with you.
SCRIPTURE John 21:1-19
SERMON “Fishin’ in the Dark” Rev. Dr. Dave Burgess
AFFIRMATION OF FAITH Heidelberg Catechism Question One Q. What is your only comfort, in life and in death?
A. That I belong--body and soul, in life and in death--not to myself but to my faithful Savior, Jesus Christ, who at the cost of his own blood has fully paid for all my sins and has completely freed me from the dominion of the devil; that he protects me so well that without the will of my Father in heaven not a hair can fall from my head; indeed, that everything must fit his purpose for my salvation. Therefore, by his Holy Spirit, he also assures me of eternal life, and makes me wholeheartedly willing and ready from now on to live for him.
