Prelude     "I Will Sing of My Redeemer"     arr. C. Berry


Call to Worship:

Here in this place, with these people, we come to worship the living God.

In you, O God, we hope; in you, Creator of love, we live.

Here in this sacred space, in these very moments, we are invited to the Table of Joy.

In you, Christ of the Way, we rejoice; in you, dear Brother, grace is as near as your heart.

Here on this day of gentleness and beauty, we are filled with the peace of God.

In you, O Spirit, we find our path; in you, Teacher of hope, we learn to serve.


**Hymn     #645 “Sing Praise to God Who Reigns Above”


**Affirmation of Faith

In life and death we belong to God. We trust in Jesus Christ, fully human, fully God. We trust in God, whom Jesus called Abba, Father. In sovereign love God created the world good and makes everyone equally in God’s image, of every race and people, to live in one community. We trust in God the Holy Spirit, everywhere the giver and renewer of life. With believers in every time and place, we rejoice that nothing in life or in death can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Message   


Prayers of the People with 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.


**Hymn    #39  “Great Is Thy Faithfulness”


**Benediction


**Choral Blessing   (face center aisle to bless one another)
May the road rise to meet you, may the wind blow at your back,
may the sun shine warmly on your face, may the rain fall softly on your field,
and, until we meet again, until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of God’s hand.
