PRELUDE “A Trumpet Dialogue” by Franklin Ritter
*OPENING PRAYER Amanda Conrade
Lord, we have come to you on this day bringing all that we have, our lives, our hopes and dreams, our fears and sorrows. We place these before you in faith and hope, knowing that no matter what has happened you are with us and blessing us. Open our hearts to receive your words and your spirit, that we may find healing and comfort. Open our lives to the wondrous possibilities for service and joy that you offer to us. Ease our minds and spirit. AMEN.
*CALL TO WORSHIP (Psalm 42) Amanda Conrade
Leader: Our souls long for you, O God.
People: When shall we behold your face?
Leader: Our souls are uneasy.
People: When shall hope lead us to praise you again?
Leader: During the day, your steadfast love sustains us.
People: During the night, your song washes over us.
Leader: Our hope leads us to praise you.
People: We praise you, our song of hope.
*HYMN OF PRAISE “You Are My All in All” WAS #3040
*PRAYER OF CONFESSION: IN UNISON Amanda Conrade
Gracious God, so often we look at ourselves, our gifts and our talents, and wonder what you would do with these offerings. We don't think that we have much to give. So, far too many times, we belittle the gifts and turn our backs on the needs and opportunities present to serve, believing that our gifts cannot possibly make a difference. We think that we must possess the greatest talents and wealth to truly please and serve you. How foolish we are! Forgive us when we stop listening to your healing and comforting words and focus on our anxieties. Heal us, Lord. Help us know that you have given us such blessings and that these blessings are truly wonderful and meant to be used to joy and service to others. Help us to bring our lives, just as they are, to you and to receive your gentle touch and healing grace. For we ask this in Jesus' Name. AMEN.
*WORDS OF ASSURANCE Amanda Conrade
God has given to each one of us such blessings and talents. With joy we bring these gifts to God. You are blessed by God's absolute love for you. Rejoice in that love and find healing and hope. AMEN.
