The Lord's Prayer

“Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name;

Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven;

Give us this day our daily bread,

And forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors;

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil,

For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever.” Amen.

Word of God: 2 Chronicles 34:1-13

Pastoral Prayer

The Apostles’ Creed

I believe in God the Father Almighty,  Maker of heaven and earth.

I believe in Jesus Christ, His only begotten Son, our Lord; who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, and born of the virgin Mary; suffered under Pontius Pilate; was crucified, dead, and was buried; he descended into hell; the third day he rose again from the dead; he ascended into heaven, and sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from there he shall come to judge the living and the dead.    

I believe in the Holy Spirit; the holy catholic church; the communion of saints; the forgiveness of sins; the resurrection of the body; and the life everlasting. Amen.

"Praise God from whom all blessings flow;

praise him, all creatures here below;

praise him above, ye heave'nly host;

praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Amen."

WELCOME TO GRACE OPC! 

On behalf of the session of Grace OPC, I want to extend our warmest greetings to you.  It is my hope and prayer that as we gather together this Lord’s Day to worship our Triune God and Redeemer, you will be encouraged to cast your cares upon the Lord and to draw near to God by faith in His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. If you are new here in Fair Lawn, please join us for fellowship following the benediction, and be sure to sign our guestbook.  We look forward to personally speaking with you, and if there are any prayer concerns in your heart, don’t hesitate to bring them to our attention.   

                                                             Pastor John Keegan 

Sermon Summery

This Reformation Sunday morning in 2 Chronicles 34:1-28, we will learn how a Spirit-produced humility is a prerequisite for spiritual revival in the church.

This Reformation Sunday afternoon in 2 Chronicles 34:29-33, we will see how indispensable the Word of God is for the reformation of the church’s faith and practice.

Announcement

Reformation Sunday Luncheon and Afternoon Worship

Today, we will hold our annual Reformation Day Luncheon in Fellowship Hall in acknowledgement of the history-altering action of a German Augustine Monk & Pastor named Martin Luther, nailing his 95 Theses to the door of the Castle Church in Wittenberg on October 31, 1517.

Keegan’s on Vacation

Next Sunday, November 2, 2025, Pastor John & HaeSung will be on their fourth week of vacation. Mr. JunSuk Seo will be bringing God’s Word in the morning service, and Rev. Young Jae Lee will be preaching God’s Word in the evening worship service.

Next Sunday: The Lord’s Supper

All who may participate in the Lord’s Supper are those who have publicly confessed faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, who continue steadfastly in that faith, who are members of good standing in a particular disciplined and Bible believing manifestation of His Church, and who, in accordance with the Scriptures, have duly examined their hearts before the Lord. If you are a visitor unknown to us and wish to participate in the Lord’s Supper we ask you, if it is possible, to make yourself known to a member of Session before the beginning of worship. The ushers will happily assist you in so doing.
