Call to Worship
In the streets, in the busyness of daily living, we encounter Christ,
and our lives are changed.
At home, with family and friends, or on our own, we encounter Christ,
and our lives are changed
In unexpected places, and in times of prayer, we encounter Christ,
and our lives are changed.
Bring your changed lives. Come into this place, and let us worship God.
*Hymn 228 "Love Divine, All Loves Excelling" Pilgrim Hymnal
*Prayer of Invocation
We come before you, O God, and wait for the kindling flame of your Holy Spirit, calling us into fuller and richer lives. You have blessed us by the night's rest and by morning's light. Open us to your claim on us. Show us your way. Let us live in the spirit of Jesus Christ our Savior. Amen.
