Prelude

*Processional
In this place, among these people
God is worshipped, God is praised.
We have seen the signs and wonders;
The lost are found here, the dead are raised.
We are living the Gospel story;
lives are changed, and mountains moved.
Won’t you come and work among us?
You are welcomed, you are loved.

*Call to Worship
Leader: Rushing Wind of the Spirit, breathe new life into us!
All: Blazing Flame of the Spirit, burn away our fears!
Leader: Comforting Presence of the Spirit, heal our wounds.
All: Let us be prepared to worship and praise you, O Holy Spirit.
