Call to Worship Peter Marsh
We come, for God gathers us here, with that community called faith:
Where the hungry are served first, where the thirsty drink life's water.
We come, for God welcomes us here into that home called grace:
Where the naked are clothed in robes of hope; where the stranger is embraced as the long-lost prodigal.
We come, for God reunites us here, sisters and brothers in that family called love:
Where the imprisoned model justice, where the sick are cradled in God's peace
Hymn “Ask Ye What Great Thing I Know” UMH 159
1. Ask ye what great thing I know, that delights and stirs me so? What the high reward I win?
Whose the name I glory in? Jesus Christ, the crucified.
2. Who defeats my fiercest foes? Who consoles my saddest woes?
Who revives my fainting heart, healing all its hidden smart? Jesus Christ, the crucified.
3. Who is life in life to me? Who the death of death will be? Who will place me on
his right, with the countless hosts of light? Jesus Christ, the crucified.
4. This is that great thing I know; this delights and stirs me so: faith in him
who died to save, him who triumphed o'er the grave: Jesus Christ, the crucified.

(Praying for what is 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.
