Words of Welcome Recognition of our High School Graduates Lighting of the Candles *Hymn of Praise Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah RHONDDA Hymn 127 Old Testament Lesson Jeremiah 18:1-6 NSRV Pew Bible p. 677 The word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord: Come, go down to the potter s house, and there I will let you hear my words.

3 So I went down to the potter s house, and there he was working at his wheel. The vessel he was making of clay was spoiled in the potter s hand, and he reworked it into another vessel, as seemed good to him. Then the word of the Lord came to me: Can I not do with you, O house of Israel, just as this potter has done? says the Lord. Just like the clay in the potter s hand, so are you in my hand, O house of Israel.
