​​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 - Because He Lives - #364
​​​​​​​​​​​​Unison Prayer
Life-Giving Spirit, you breathe hope into our valleys of despair and call forth life where we saw only dry bones. Welcome today not out of habit, but out of longing to be part of your work that restores, renews, and redeems. Take these gifts and use them to roll away the stones that keep your people bound. Let them be signs of trust, symbols of resurrection, and tools of transformation in a weary world. May our offering, like our living, lean into your Spirit and testify that life - abundant, eternal, and holy - is possible in you. In Christ, who calls us out of the grave and into your grace, we pray. Amen.

​​​​Opening Hymn - Come Out the Wilderness - #416
​​​​​​​​​​​​Unison Prayer
Faithful God of New Beginnings, you call us - as you called Abraham - to trust in what we cannot yet see, to follow where you lead, even when the road is unclear. In the shadows of our questions and the uncertainty of our understanding, you meet us with grace, not condemnation. As Nicodemus discovered, your love is not earned but freely given. Receive now these gifts we offer - not as payment or proof, but as signs of our belief, our hope, and our gratitude. Use them to share your transforming love with a world still searching in the dark. In the name of your Son, given in love, we pray. Amen.

So I will bless you as long as I live; in your name I will lift up my hands.
