[3535.58 --> 3538.58] We ask for your peace to reign in places of conflict
[3538.58 --> 3541.96] and for your grace to abound in places of despair.
[3543.30 --> 3545.46] Use us as instruments of your peace
[3545.46 --> 3547.26] and ambassadors of your kingdom.
[3547.26 --> 3551.12] Help us to be a community that reflects your love,
[3551.42 --> 3552.94] compassion, and justice.
[3553.64 --> 3555.52] May we be a light to those around us,
[3555.98 --> 3558.44] demonstrating the hope and grace that we have found in you.
[3560.38 --> 3562.44] Lord, we lift up our congregation to you,
[3562.96 --> 3564.72] asking for your healing touch upon those
[3564.72 --> 3567.46] who are suffering in body, mind, or spirit.
[3567.46 --> 3571.44] We are thankful for news of Peter's successful surgery
[3571.44 --> 3573.34] and ask for continued healing.
[3574.04 --> 3576.38] We also pray for Emo's upcoming surgery.

[3595.24 --> 3597.30] whether because they're shut in or for other reasons,
[3597.80 --> 3600.84] may they feel your presence in profound and tangible ways.
[3601.82 --> 3603.78] We also ask that as the school year
[3603.78 --> 3605.62] and the church ministry year gets underway,
[3605.94 --> 3607.62] that all will experience your goodness.
[3609.44 --> 3611.18] As we gather as a church family,
[3611.56 --> 3613.58] we also seek your guidance and wisdom.
[3614.76 --> 3616.46] Illuminate our hearts and minds
[3616.46 --> 3618.84] as we seek to understand your word more deeply
[3618.84 --> 3621.12] and to apply it faithfully in our lives.
[3622.20 --> 3624.34] Open our hearts to the truth of your word.
[3625.78 --> 3627.88] Transform us by the renewing of our minds
[3627.88 --> 3630.60] so that we might live lives that are pleasing to you.
[3631.66 --> 3634.70] Help us to grow in faith, hope, and love,
[3635.02 --> 3637.12] and to build each other up in our journey with you.
[3638.94 --> 3641.38] Father, we are grateful for your constant presence
[3641.38 --> 3643.00] and your unending grace.
[3643.74 --> 3646.70] We commit this time of worship and fellowship into your hands,
[3646.70 --> 3649.40] trusting that you will be honored in all that we do.
[3650.20 --> 3653.22] We pray all these things in the name of your son, Jesus Christ.
[3654.02 --> 3654.28] Amen.
[3662.74 --> 3663.96] Well, good morning, everyone.
[3664.90 --> 3666.12] Oh, you sound tired.
[3666.12 --> 3669.10] For those who are part of Emmanuel,
[3669.18 --> 3670.08] my name is Dave Gruen.
[3670.20 --> 3671.82] I'm one of the pastors at Hope Community Church
[3671.82 --> 3672.64] just down the road.
[3672.76 --> 3674.24] And I want to say to Emmanuel,
[3674.40 --> 3675.78] thank you for your hospitality.
[3676.72 --> 3679.44] I have gotten to know what I feel like half of your church now
[3679.44 --> 3680.90] because of all the different ways
[3680.90 --> 3682.72] that you have served and cared for us.
[3682.96 --> 3684.22] And so I just want to speak on behalf
[3684.22 --> 3685.78] of all the churches represented here
[3685.78 --> 3688.14] by saying thank you for your generous hospitality.
[3688.60 --> 3690.72] And we're going to give Emmanuel a round of applause.
[3690.72 --> 3690.98] Thank you.
[3690.98 --> 3691.08] Thank you.
[3691.08 --> 3691.22] Thank you.
[3691.22 --> 3691.28] Thank you.
[3691.28 --> 3691.38] Thank you.
[3691.38 --> 3691.44] Thank you.
[3691.44 --> 3691.48] Thank you.
[3691.48 --> 3691.54] Thank you.
[3691.54 --> 3691.58] Thank you.
[3691.58 --> 3691.62] Thank you.
[3691.62 --> 3691.68] Thank you.
[3691.68 --> 3691.74] Thank you.
[3691.74 --> 3692.18] Thank you.
[3692.18 --> 3692.68] Thank you.
[3692.68 --> 3693.18] Thank you.
[3693.18 --> 3693.24] Thank you.
[3693.24 --> 3693.78] Thank you.
[3693.78 --> 3696.78] Thank you.
[3696.78 --> 3697.22] Thank you.
[3697.22 --> 3698.26] Throughout the course of this weekend,
[3698.26 --> 3700.36] the theme of reactivate has been revealed
[3700.36 --> 3701.96] and we've been exploring how it is
[3701.96 --> 3703.68] that Jesus is revealed to us.
[3703.78 --> 3704.26] On Friday,
[3704.50 --> 3706.06] I'm sure all the students remember this perfectly.
[3706.62 --> 3708.62] We looked at how Jesus was revealed to us
[3708.62 --> 3711.18] as our great prophet who speaks God's word.
[3711.76 --> 3712.10] Yesterday,
[3712.32 --> 3714.12] we looked at how Jesus is revealed to us
[3714.12 --> 3715.32] as our great high priest
[3715.32 --> 3717.00] whose perfect sacrifice
[3717.00 --> 3719.38] opens up the presence of God to us.
[3719.80 --> 3720.48] And this morning,
