GATHERING & ADORATION
PRELUDE ”All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name”
CALL TO WORSHIP Based on Psalm 118:1-2, 19-29
This is the day God has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.
Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his steadfast love endures forever!
Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord.
Open to us the gates of righteousness, that we may enter through them and give thanks.
Here is the gate; come, let the righteous enter. Bring your branches to the festival procession.
This is your day of triumph, God. This day is your doing; it is marvelous in our eyes.
Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his steadfast love endures forever!
This is the day God has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.
