GATHERING & ADORATION

PRELUDE “Consuming Fire”

WELCOME

*CALL TO WORSHIP

We yearn to be in the presence of the Holy One,
To linger in the house of prayer,
To walk beside still streams,
To behold the radiance of creation,
To sing as matches our joy,
To offer our sacrifice of service,
To dwell all our days enfolded in the love of God,
To praise God with our deeds and melodies.

*SING TO THE LORD “I Surrender All”

*PRAYER w/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 sins,
as we forgive those who sin against us; and lead us not
into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the
Kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen.
