Call to Worship                                                                                        Stephanie Bohan

Beloved, we are God’s children now,

but what we will be in the fullness of our time has not been revealed.

 

What we do know is this:

we will be like Jesus the Christ and saints of God.

 

Let us consider how Jesus was revealed among us

and pray to be more like the Christ in every way.

 

Hymn                                                 “For All the Saints”                                  UMH 711 (v. 1, 4, 5, 6)

For all the saints, who from their labors rest, who thee by faith

before the world confessed, thy name, O Jesus, be forever blest. Alleluia, Alleluia!

O blest communion, fellowship divine! We feebly struggle, they

in glory shine; yet all are one in thee, for all are thine. Alleluia, Alleluia!

And when the strife is fierce, the warfare long, steals on the ear

the distant triumph song, and hearts are brave again, and arms are strong. Alleluia, Alleluia!

From earth's wide bounds, from ocean's farthest coast, through gates

of pearl streams in the countless host, singing to Father, Son, and Holy Ghost: Alleluia, Alleluia!

                                                 (Praying for what was shared on FB Live.) 

Our Father, which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy Name.

Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses,

As we forgive those that trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation,

But deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory, forever. Amen.
