Welcoming | My Peace (As we return to our seats.) | Rev. Christine Dickerson |
God, our God, you have ordered creation that we might thrive. We find our place in the midst of beauty, we make our way through lives of change and challenge. In every hour we give thanks for the breath of life, and minute to minute we experience the tenderness of your Grace. It is a fall from that Grace when we look only to ourselves, and fail to take time to understand others, or be active in ways that are meaningful. We are nothing without kindness, we are empty without generosity of spirit. Forgive us our trespass, and renew in us a clean heart, a humble heart, and eager heart. In Christ's name we pray, Amen. |

Life of the Church | Special Music | Deacon Pauline Gregg |
Hear the Good News! Who is in a position to condemn? Only Christ, and Christ died for us, Christ rose for us, Christ reigns in power for us, Christ prays for us. Anyone who is in Christ is a new creation. The old life has gone; a new life has begun. Know you are forgiven and be at peace. Amen. |
||
Passing of the Peace | To God Be the Glory | Congregation |
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. |

Prelude | Gloria Patri | Praise Band |
