Announcements

Nov. 3 - Time Change Sunday – Fall Back on your clocks next week!

Thank you concessions volunteers ! We had a great crew Monday evening. We’ll watch for some basketball and especially baseball opportunities in the future.

October is ministry leader appreciation month. We encourage you to set aside extra time this month to pray for all of your ministry leaders and seek how you may be a blessing to them or say thank you.

This year we are not hosting the annual Trunk or Treat. Weekdays have been difficult to have a good representation of volunteers present in time to serve the community well. We do encourage you to consider how you may use the opportunity of people coming to your door on
Oct. 31st as a witnessing opportunity.

Sunday, Nov. 24th will be The Road’s Thanksgiving Celebration. We’ll enjoy a Thanksgiving meal after the service together. We are looking for volunteers to prepare turkeys/hams along with sides and desserts. See QR code to volunteer.

The resources on defeating the abortion amendment and gambling amendments are available through our Missouri Baptist Christian Life Commission - https://mbcclc.org/

Worship Lyrics

His Mercy Is More
Verse 1
What love could remember no wrongs we have done
Omniscient all knowing He counts not their sum
Thrown into a sea without bottom or shore
Our sins they are many His mercy is more
Verse 2
What patience would wait as we constantly roam
What Father so tender is calling us home
He welcomes the weakest the vilest the poor
Our sins they are many His mercy is more
Verse 3
What riches of kindness He lavished on us
His blood was the payment His life was the cost
We stood 'neath a debt we could never afford
Our sins they are many His mercy is more
Chorus
Praise the Lord His mercy is more
Stronger than darkness new every morn
Our sins they are many His mercy is more

The Cause Of Christ
Verse 1
The only thing I want in life
Is to be known for loving Christ
To build His church to love His bride
And make His name known far and wide
Chorus
For this cause I live
For this cause I'd die
I surrender all for the cause of Christ
All I once held dear I will leave behind
For my joy is this oh the cause of Christ
(For my joy is this oh the cause of Christ)
Verse 2
He is all my soul will prize
Regardless of the joy or trial
When agonizing questions rise
In Jesus all my hope abides
Bridge
Jesus my Jesus
For Your glory for Your name
Jesus my Jesus
I will only sing Your praise
(REPEAT)
Verse 3
It is not fame that I desire
Nor stature in my brother's eye
I pray it's said about my life
That I lived more to build Your name than mine

You've Already Won
Verse 1
There’s peace that outlasts darkness
Hope that’s in the blood
There’s future grace that's mine today
That Jesus Christ has won
Verse 2
So I can face tomorrow
For tomorrow’s in Your hands
All I need You will provide
Just like You always have
Chorus
I’m fighting a battle
You’ve already won
No matter what comes my way
I will overcome
Don’t know what You're doing
But I know what You’ve done
I’m fighting a battle
You’ve already won
Verse 3
There’s mercy in the waiting
Manna for today
And when it’s gone I know You’re not
You are my hope and stay
Verse 4
When the sea is raging
Your Spirit is my help
He’ll fix my eyes on Jesus Christ
I’ll say that it is well
Oh I know that it is well
Bridge
I know how the story ends
We will be with You again
You’re my Savior my defense
No more fear in life or death
Tag 1
I know how this story ends
Tag 2
I'm fighting a battle You've already won

Holy Spirit
Verse 1
There's nothing worth more that will ever come close
No thing can compare You're our living hope
Your Presence
Verse 2
I've tasted and seen of the sweetest of loves
Where my heart becomes free and my shame is undone
In Your Presence Lord
Chorus
Holy Spirit You are welcome here
Come flood this place and fill the atmosphere
Your glory God is what our hearts long for
To be overcome by Your Presence Lord
