Call to Worship - Psalm 66:16–20 

Come and hear, all you who fear God; let me tell you what he has done for me. 
I cried out to him with my mouth; his praise was on my tongue. 
If I had cherished sin in my heart, the Lord would not have listened; 
but God has surely listened and has heard my prayer. 
Praise be to God, who has not rejected my prayer or withheld his love from me! 

​​​​​​​​​​​​Opening Hymn - This Is My Father's World - #144

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Unison Prayer 

Humble Savior, you meet us at the start of every day and invite us to take on the mind of Christ. As we bring these gifts, set aside in us the need to win, to hoard, to be first. Shape us instead for love, for shared work, for joy in serving side by side. Use what we offer to build a community where sacrifice is natural, mercy is instinctive, and hope rises in every heart. Keep forming us, not by force but by grace, until our living begins to look like Jesus. We place our offerings -- and ourselves -- in your hands. Amen.

Call to Worship - Psalm 100 

Make a joyful noise to the LORD, all the earth! Serve the LORD with gladness! 
Come into his presence with singing! Know that the LORD, he is God! 
It is he who made us, and we are his; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.

his steadfast love endures forever, and his faithfulness to all generations.

Merciful Deliverer, you part the waters when we feel trapped and forgive debts too great to repay. In the face of fear and brokenness, and lead us with compassion and grace.

Call to Worship - Psalm 63:1–4 

O God, you are my God; earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you; 
my flesh faints for you, as in a dry and weary land where there is no water. 
So I have looked upon you in the sanctuary, beholding your power and glory. 
Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you. 
So I will bless you as long as I live; in your name I will lift up my hands. 

​​​​​​​​​​​Opening Hymn - How Great Thou Art - #77

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Unison Prayer 

Reconciling God, you mark our lives not with fear, but with mercy, and you gather us into a people shaped by grace. As you delivered your children at Passover and taught your church to seek peace with one another, teach us to live in our "church clothes" every day -- clothed in patience, truth, and love. Receive these gifts as signs of our trust in your saving power and our commitment to your work of healing and restoration. Use what we offer to mend what is broken, welcome those who feel outside, and build a community where forgiveness and hope have the final word. In Christ's name, we pray. Amen.

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Unison Prayer 

Holy God, you call ordinary people from unexpected places and send them into hard and holy work. As you met Moses in the fire that did not consume, and as you met Peter on the road of costly discipleship, meet us now in these gifts we bring. Shape us by your presence, not by fear; by service, not by power; by love that risks itself for the sake of others. Receive our offering as a sign that we trust your "I AM" to go with us and that we are willing to follow Christ, even when the way is demanding. Use what we give to bring freedom, healing, and hope to your world. Amen.
