DELEGATE CONSECRATION SERVICE

(Delegates are asked to prayerfully consider these words.)

One: Today we gather in four (4) different locations: Buffalo Valley, Chambersburg, New
Fairview and Newville to conduct the Southern Pennsylvania District Conference.

All: We are grateful for our District, our leadership, our employees and each member of the
District.
We are living in times of uncertainty, of unrest and in fear of Covid-19.
We seek to honor our Lord Jesus in doing the business of the District in a different
manner than previously recorded.

One: Our Theme is from 1 Peter 3:11 (NKJV).

All: Let him turn away from evil and do good; Let him seek peace and pursue it!

One: Hear my cry, O God; Listen to my prayer.
From the end of the earth I call to you, when my heart is faint.
Lead me to the rock that is higher than I; for you are my refuge, a strong tower against
the enemy.
Let me abide in your tent forever, find refuge under the shelter of your wings.
For you, O God have heard my vows; you have given me the heritage of those who fear
your name.

All: So, I will sing praises to your name, as I pay my vows day after day. Amen.
(Psalms 61:1-5, 8 NRSV)
