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: You who live in the shelter of the Most High, who abide in the shadow of the Almighty say to the Lord:
All: You are my refuge and my fortress. You are my God in whom I trust.
Leader: Because you have made the Lord your refuge, the Most High will be your dwelling place.
All: No evil shall befall us. No scourge shall come near our tents.
Leader: Those who love the Lord, God will deliver. God protects those who know the name of the Lord. God saves them and honors them in times of trouble.
All: Show us our salvation, O God. Show us your favor as we offer you our worship.
