Welcoming/Preparing to Meet with God | Special Music | Rev. Christine Dickerson |
Oh God, our Creator, today is a day of light, a day of renewal, a day of joy. Every day becomes a new beginning in your love and we sing with delight at the vastness of your grace, the beauty of creation, the goodness found in everyday life. And still, O Lord, we sin. We anger and rebel, we give in to hopelessness and darkness. We fail to trust in your promise to us. Forgive us, we pray. Help us to remember the rainbow and the Cross, and your steadfast love. Help us to turn to every friend and neighbor, to share what we have, to forgive, and be your light in the world. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen. |

Prelude | “My Peace” (As we return to our seats.) | Praise Band |
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. |

God, source of all light, by your Word you give light to the soul. Pour out upon us the spirit of wisdom and understanding, that, through the Scriptures, our hearts and minds may be opened to know your will in our lives. Amen. |
