Covenant Renewal Service

Often, the covenant prayer of John Wesley is incorporated into special worship services within the church; it is an important element of the Methodist understanding of Christian discipleship. This month we will offer a time of worship using Wesley’s prayer. Join us Sunday evening January 24th at 6pm for a Covenant Renewal Service. We will share in a deep Methodist tradition Wesley often found great joy and blessing from. Our service will be a time for each of us to strongly consider our walk with God, and requires a commitment of ourselves to God. To help prepare for the service, over the course of the next several weeks pray Wesley’s prayer (United Methodist Hymnal #607) often. This can be a meaningful time in the life of our church; hope to see you there.

I am no longer my own, but thine.
Put me to what thou wilt, rank me with whom thou wilt.
Put me to doing, put me to suffering.
Let me be employed for thee or laid aside for thee,
exalted for thee or brought low for thee.
Let me be full, let me be empty.
Let me have all things, let me have nothing.
I freely and heartily yield all things to thy pleasure and disposal.
And now, O glorious and blessed God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit,

thou art mine, and I am thine.

So be it.
And the covenant which I have made on earth,
let it be ratified in heaven.
Amen.
