Worship Prayers May 17

THE TIME OF CENTERING:  God of beauty and truth:  as we gather to honor you in prayer and song, may our living in the coming week honor your ways, that all earth’s people may live in unity and peace.  Amen




CALL TO WORSHIP
God calls us and we respond; Christ leads us, and we are to follow; the Spirit beckons us, and we are urged to enter into new life.
We come to worship the God of life and laughter, hope and anticipation, peace and wholeness.

   PRAYER OF CONFESSION
O Christ, you stood in the midst of the disciples and brought peace to their lives.  Why are we so troubled and not at peace?  Troubled by what people say or what others do?  Troubled by what happens around us?  Troubled by our lack of faith and disillusioned by tragedy? Forgive us, O God…grant us peace.  May we build our faith on Christ’s word and the apostle’s story.  May we grow in love.  In Christ’s name.  Amen
