*Call to Worship
In this Year of our Lord
On this Sabbath Morning
In this Holy Moment
We come seeking God’s presence
with hope, with wonder, with joy
And we pray:
Holy, Holy, Holy, God of power and might,
the whole world is filled with your glory!
Yet this beloved world is riddled with sadness,
For need encounters greed,
And war is a constant;
We listen for the call:
Whom shall I send? Who will go for us?
We come longing to be consoled,
To be strengthened, to be changed
So that in hope, in wonder and in joy we may answer:
Here I am! Send me!
Let us worship our God
in this Year of our Lord,
On this Sabbath Morning,
In this Holy Moment!
*Hymn of Praise #277 Holy, Holy, Holy NICAEA
Prayer Of Invocation And The Lord’s Prayer
God whose glory fills the earth, whose presence is all around us if only we have eyes to see and ears to hear, meet us here today as you met Isaiah in the Temple and the disciples at the seashore. Surprise us with your beauty and your power, and fill us with the desire to follow where you call us. Amen. Let us pray the prayer Jesus taught us. Holy God, who are in heaven, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come, your 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. Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever and ever. Amen.
