A Few Notes About Our Services
- Beal Heights observes the Lord’s Supper each Sunday. We invite all professing Christians whose membership is in good standing with an evangelical, Bible believing congregation to join with us at the Lord’s Table. If you are visiting with us today and meet this criteria, and wish to partake of the Supper, please meet with our elder in the foyer for a quick interview to be admitted to the Lord’s Table.
If you are visiting with us today, please help us to get to know you by filling out one of the blue cards in the pew racks and placing it in the offering plate when the offering is collected.
When the prelude begins, please curtail conversation and prepare your hearts for worship. Please make sure electronic devices are off or using silent mode.
We love children in our worship services! For our parents, there is a Cry Room in the back of the sanctuary for calming children in order to return to the worship service. We also offer a Visitors’ Nursery for children 3 and under. If you wish to utilize it. Please speak with the greeters for directions.
Hearing assistance devices are available at the taping table.
If you should need assistance in any way, please speak with our greeters.

Confession of Sin
To you, O Lord, we lift up our soul; in you we trust, O our God. No one whose hope is in you will ever be put to shame. Show us your ways, O Lord, teach us your paths; guide us in your truth and teach us, for you are God our Savior, and our hope is in you all day long. Remember, O Lord, your great mercy and love, for they are from of old. Remember not the sins of our youth and our rebellious ways; according to your love remember us, for you are good, O Lord. For the sake of your name, O Lord, forgive our iniquity, for it is great. Look upon our affliction and our distress and take away all our sins. Guard our lives and rescue us; let us not be put to shame for we take refuge in you. May integrity and uprightness protect us, because our hope is in you. Redeem Israel, O God, from all their troubles! Amen. —from Psalm 25
