SENIOR SUNDAY Each year, we give our high school seniors the opportunity to bless our congregation by serving in key parts of our Sunday morning services on what has become known as “Senior Sunday.”

This morning you will see our Peachtree seniors serving in multiple capacities; whether it be greeting, singing from the chancel, or praying, each student has come with a heart to express their gratitude for the impact Peachtree has had on them.

This is a pivotal moment as they prepare to walk with the Lord into the next chapter of their lives, and it is a privilege for them to lead this morning.

On behalf of the senior class, student ministry staff, and senior class advisors, thank you for supporting and nurturing them in their faith journey.

“The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; He will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.”

DEUTERONOMY 31:8

Prayer of Confession

Loving God, we admit today that we want things to be easy; we want life to go the way we want it and not have to struggle at all. But we know that this world and our lives are broken.

Forgive our comfort-seeking ways, and help us to trust in Your provision for us. Hear now the confessions we make in silence…

Milestones

Just as families keep in touch about joys & sorrows, our church family at Peachtree wants to do the same. During your prayers this week, we ask you to lift up these people to God.
