CONFESSION OF SIN (Confess aloud altogether as a Believing Congregation) Corporate Prayer 'Most Holy and Merciful Father, we confess that our manner of life has not been worthy of the Gospel. We have followed the devices of our own pride and have been ashamed of Your truth. We have broken Your laws by seeking to justify ourselves. But You, O Lord, have mercy upon us. Restore us to the power of the Gospel. Grant that we may hereafter live as those who are truly saved by grace alone, to the glory of Your holy name. Amen.' ASSURANCE OF PARDON The Word of Grace: Romans 1:16–17 'For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes... For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith.' PRAYER OF ADORATION AND THANKSGIVING (Presider) CONFESSION OF FAITH (NICENE CREED) (Confess aloud altogether as a Believing Congregation) “We believe in one God, the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all that is, seen and unseen. We believe in one Lord: Jesus Christ, the only Son of God eternally begotten of the Father, God from God, Light from Light, True God from True God, begotten, not made, of one being with the Father. Through him all things were made. For us and for our salvation he came down from heaven, was incarnate by the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary and became truly human. For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate. He suffered and was buried. On the third day, he rose again in accordance with the Scriptures. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory…” *SONGS OF PRAISE PRAYER OF INTERCESSION (Ben) To help you think about your level of giving, here is the financial snapshot of HCC for this month: 8th July - 14th July = $6,404.62 Total July Giving = $12,901.41 Project Anchor Progress = $18,656.65 Monthly Giving Target: $30,000.00 General Tithes & Offering VS Sydney Space Offering These are two separate HCC accounts (BSB: 082 057).

SUNDAY WORSHIP We'd love for you to join us for our weekly Sunday services. You can join us in person. Our live stream is available by request only, by filling out this form here. Past sermons can be found here. 10:00AM Harbour Tea 10:30AM Worship Service CHURCH LOCATION 41B College Street, Gladesville NSW 2111 OFFERING Offering is part of our worship to God. The Bible gives us an enduring principle of tithing of our gross income as the baseline for the Christian’s worship through giving (2 Cor 9:7; Malachi 3:8-10). If every church member gave 10%, we would have enough financial resources for all the gospel ministry God is calling our church to do. Let the Spirit guide you in all final matters. You may give electronically to the account details below: CHILDREN'S MINISTRY Harbour City Church welcomes families with children of all ages to the Sunday worship services. An open creche area and a cry room are provided at the back of the venue for parents to use with their babies and toddlers.

If you have any questions about Children’s Ministry, please contact Gloria or Elder Jacko. GROWTH GROUPS GGs are HCC’s small group ministry.
