Call to Worship - Psalm 108:1–5 

My heart is steadfast, O God! I will sing and make melody with all my being! 
Awake, O harp and lyre! I will awake the dawn! 
I will give thanks to you, O LORD, among the peoples; I will sing praises to you among the nations. 
For your steadfast love is great above the heavens; your faithfulness reaches to the clouds. 
Be exalted, O God, above the heavens! Let your glory be over all the earth! 

​​​​​​​​​​​Opening Hymn - To God Be The Glory - #98

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Unison Prayer 

Faithful God, we lift our voices and our gifts in grateful memory of your saving work. You call us to sing of your goodness and to remember your wonders, even when the way forward is hidden from view. As Joseph was used for life in a time of scarcity, so use these offerings for hope and healing in a hungry world. Make us instruments of your purpose -- seeds of justice, salt of compassion, and signs of your steadfast love. Receive what we bring as praise made tangible, and send us out as a people who remember, who trust, and who sing of your deliverance in every season. Amen.

July 19, 2026​

​​​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.

Praise be to God, who has not rejected my prayer or withheld his love from me!

Compassionate Creator, you formed us from the dust of the earth and breathed into us life and purpose. In these gifts we return, we offer more than resources; we offer our hope.

Awaken in us a holy longing, as deep as the groaning of the earth itself, for justice, healing, and new life. May our giving participate in your redemption, until the world rejoices in freedom and glory as your children. We offer this with joy, in the name of Christ our Redeemer. Amen.

July 12, 2026​

​​​Call to Worship - Psalm 100 

Make a joyful noise to the LORD, all the earth! Serve the LORD with gladness!

Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise! 
Give thanks to him; bless his name! For the LORD is good; 
his steadfast love endures forever, and his faithfulness to all generations. 

​​​​​​​​​​​Opening Hymn - Something Beautiful, Something Good - #394

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Unison Prayer 

Gracious Redeemer, you know us completely - - our good intentions, our wavering will, our stumbling steps. Like Paul, we confess the war within us: we long to do what is right, yet too often fall short. Still, you meet us not with condemnation, but with mercy and grace. So, we bring these offerings, not to earn your favor, but to respond in gratitude for a Savior who rescues us from sin's grip. Use these gifts, and use us, to offer hope where there is despair, light where there is shadow, and love where there is brokenness. We give because you gave first - - and because your Spirit empowers us to live not by our strength, but by your grace. In Christ's name we pray, Amen.
