Welcoming | My Peace (As we return to our seats.) | Rev. Christine Dickerson |
You call us, Lord, to be your people. To love one another as you love us, to walk with our sisters and brothers as the Spirit walks with us. You call us with Grace and forgiveness, and create new beginnings. Our hearts rejoice! Yet even in our joy we fail, and fall to sin. We feel anger, and can be self serving. Only your presence can heal our broken nature, and we pray with confidence that you will heal us, forgive us, remind us that even in our humanity can be found your glory, planted in our hearts to replace sorrow with hope, and darkness with light. Help us and lead us, O Lord, in Jesus' name, Amen. |

Life of the Church | Special Music | Elder Jim DeHart |
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. |

Passing of the Peace | Joyful, Joyful, We Adore Thee | Congregation |
God of our salvation, how wonderful are those who bring good news and announce your peace. By the power of your Holy Spirit, help us to hear and believe your word, and to share this good news: peace on earth and good will to all, through Jesus Christ our Savior. Amen |
