PSPC Worship Service

One: How lovely is your dwelling place, O Lord Almighty!
Many: My heart cries out for the living God;
One: Even the spare has found a home, and the swallow a nest.
ALL: Blessed are those who dwell in your house; they are ever praising you!

You are the God of power and might, and you are the God of love and grace. Our world is a world of many faces, filled with the music of unexpected and joyful diversity; and it is our blessing to add our voices to your song. We long to serve you, our Creator, with dedicated hearts and willing hands. We want to be our best, with servant hearts, and are disappointed in ourselves when we surrender to our sinful and self serving desires. Forgive us we pray. Rebuild us and employ us dedicated to your Good News for all people. Hear our pleas for healing, fill our hungry hearts as we pray in Jesus؜

Who is in a position to condemn? Only Christ, and Christ died for us, was risen for us, and reigns in power over us. Sisters and brothers hear this good news. Through Christ we are forgiven and reconciled with the Creator of all.

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.

Lord, open our hearts and minds by the power of your Holy Spirit, that as the Scriptures are read and your Word is proclaimed, we may hear with joy what you say to us today. Amen
