PRELUDE
We are excited that you are worshiping at Gethsemane today.
CALL TO WORSHIP: (congregation reads the bold) The tomb is dark, but empty
The one you are looking for has overcome the darkness
The stone has been rolled away
The one you are looking for has overcome death
The burial clothes are put aside
The one you are looking for is alive!
Christ is Risen!
Christ is Risen Indeed!
Let us worship our Risen Savior!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
