Welcoming | My Peace (As we return to our seats.) | Rev. Christine Dickerson |
What would we sacrifice for you, our God? You gave us your son Jesus, and he gave us his life! What can we give, how can we respond? Our lives are busy and there is so much distraction. We spend time being afraid, being angry, being selfish. Forgive us for turning away from you and toward ourselves. Forgive us for turning away from our responsibilities as your beloved children. Forgive us, and guide us we pray. By your grace let the Gospel guide our hearts, our hands, our minds, as we learn to sacrifice our time and our lives to sharing your greatest gift: Love. We ask in Jesus' name, Amen. |

Life of the Church | Special Music | Elder Jeff Morgan |
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 | Lift Up Your Heads Ye Mighty Gates | 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. |
