Prelude / Preludio

Welcome / Bienvenida

Opening Music / Canto de Apertura “Praise Him, Praise Him / Alabadle!”

*Call to Worship / Llamamiento a la Adoración

Psalm 100:4-5 Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise! Give thanks to him; bless his name! For the Lord is good; his steadfast love endures forever, and his faithfulness to all generations.

Salmo 100:4-5 Entren por sus puertas con acción de gracias; vengan a sus atrios con himnos de alabanza; denle gracias, alaben su nombre. Porque el SEÑOR es bueno y su gran amor es eterno; su fidelidad permanece para siempre.

*Hymn of Approach / Himno de Acercamiento “How Firm a Foundation / Cuán Firme Cimiento”

How firm a foundation, you saints of the Lord, Is laid for your faith in his excellent Word! What more can he say than to you he has said, To you who for refuge to Jesus have fled?

¡Cuán firme cimiento se ha dado a la fe, de Dios en su eterna palabra de amor! ¿Qué más El pudiera en su libro añadir, si todo a sus hijos lo ha dicho el Señor?

“No temas por nada, contigo Yo soy; tu Dios yo soy sólo; tu ayuda seré; tu fuerza y firmeza en mi diestra estarán, y en ella sostén y poder te daré”

Fear not, I am with you, O be not dismayed; For I am your God, and will still give you aid; I’ll strengthen you, help you and cause you to stand, Upheld by my righteous, omnipotent hand.

Prayer of Adoration and Confession / Oración de Adoracion y Confesion

Assurance of Pardon / Seguridad del Perdón

Isaiah 1:18 Come now, let us reason together, says the LORD: though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall become like wool.

Isaías 1:18 Vengan, pongamos las cosas en claro —dice el Señor —. ¿Son sus pecados como escarlata? ¡Quedarán blancos como la nieve! ¿Son rojos como la púrpura? ¡Quedarán como la lana!

*Hymn of Faith / Himno de Fe “Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing / Fuente de la Vida Eterna ” (Ushers come forward on last verse)

Come, thou fount of every blessing, tune my heart to sing thy grace; Streams of mercy never ceasing, call for songs of loudest praise. Teach me some melodious sonnet, sung by flaming tongues above; Praise the mount! I’m fixed upon it, mount of God’s unchanging love.

Fuente de la vida eternal y de toda bendición, ensalzar tu gracia tierna debe todo corazón; tu piedad inagotable, abundante en perdonar; único ser adorable, gloria a ti debemos dar.

Toma nuestros corazones, llénalos de tu verdad, de tu Espíritu los dones, y de toda santidad; guíanos en la obediencia, humildad, amor y fé; nos ampare tu clemencia; Salvador, propicio sé.

O to grace how great a debtor, daily I’m constrained to be; Let that grace now, like a fetter, bind my wandering heart to thee. Prone to wander– Lord, I feel it– prone to leave the God I love; Here’s my heart, O take and seal it, seal it for thy courts above.

Prone to wander– Lord, I feel it—prone to leave the God I love; Here’s my heart, O take and seal it, seal it for thy courts above.

guíanos en la obediencia, humildad, amor y fé; nos ampare tu clemencia; Salvador, propicio sé.

Prayer of Dedication / Oración de Dedicación

Offertory / Ofertorio “Leaning on the Everlasting Arms / Dulce Comunión ”

What a fellowship, what a joy divine, Leaning on the everlasting arms; What a blessedness, what a peace is mine, Leaning on the everlasting arms.

Leaning, leaning Safe and secure from all alarms; Leaning, leaning Leaning on the everlasting arms.

Dulce comunión la que gozo ya En los brazos de mi Salvador. ¡Qué gran bendición en su paz me da! ¡Oh! yo siento en mí su tierno amor.

Libre, salvo de cuidados y temor; Libre, salvo en los brazos de mi Salvador.

Nunca temeré, ni desconfiaré en los brazos de mi Salvador muy seguro allí, siempre yo estaré de los lazos del engañador.

Libre, salvo de cuidados y temor; Libre, salvo en los brazos de mi Salvador.

What have I to dread, what have I to fear, Leaning on the everlasting arms; I have blessed peace with my Lord so near, Leaning on the everlasting arms.

Leaning, leaning Safe and secure from all alarms; Leaning, leaning Leaning on the everlasting arms.

(Children ages 4 to 9 years old may be dismissed to Children’s Church)

Why do we worship the way we do at Carolina? That's a great question! Each church is different in it's style, song selection, and order of service. At Carolina Presbyterian Church, our goal is to do everything in worship in a manner that glorifies God and edifies our congregation. The elders, in conjunction with the deacons and worship committee, have spent many months over the last year praying about what worship should look like at Carolina. Below is a philosophy of worship statement, formed by our church leaders. What you will find below shouldn't be new or shocking to anyone who's been here for a while: it's actually what we've already been doing for most of the last year. However, we thought it would be helpful to put into words what we are trying to accomplish, for the sake of good communication. As always, please come and talk with any church leader if you have questions about this. We are thrilled to join with you in the worship of our Lord together!

Carolina PCA Philosophy of Worship:

At Carolina Presbyterian Church, we desire to worship God in a manner that is both glorifying to God and edifying to our congregation.

To glorify God, we seek to worship him with excellence, with an attitude of reverence (considering God’s holiness) and celebration (considering God’s grace), with a Christ-centered focus rooted in reformed theology and founded on the word of God.

To edify our congregation, we seek to worship God with some stylistic variation that reflects some of the preferences of our multi-generational church and community. We seek to employ these different styles in a way that promotes love and unity within the same worship service.

Fellowship Luncheon—Today! (4/30) You are invited to join us today for our Fellowship Luncheon. We will meet immediately following the morning service in the Fellowship Hall. Please bring a dish to share. All are welcome!
