CENTERING PRAYER
Holy God, you created the world and all that is in it. The wind and the sea obey you Son. You are the source of our strength and our confidence is in you. All praise be to you, our stronghold and savior. Amen.
CALL TO WORSHIP (Psalm 133)
How very good and pleasant it is
when siblings live together in unity!
It is like the precious oil on the head,
like the dew that falls on the mountains of Zion.
Together, let us worship God.
PRAYER OF CONFESSION
Most merciful God, forgive us. We imagine we can live without you, when you give us our very breath. We seek control over others rather than strive to live in unity. We allow fear to overtake us, even though our lives are in your hands. Draw us back into your steadfast love and shape us into the likeness of your Son, Jesus Christ, in whose name we continue to pray. (Silent Confession)
OFFERING
Invitation to the Offering
With tithes and offerings give thanks to the Lord; God’s steadfast love endures forever.
Prayer after Offering
Let us pray… We return to you, O God, the gifts you give, that this money and our lives might bear witness to the good news of Jesus Christ, in whose name we pray. Amen.
