CALL TO WORSHIP<\/strong>:<\/strong> (Congregation reads the bold print)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We often feel as if we are wandering through our lives,
searching for something we cannot name.
We come today to listen for hope, to pray for strength,
and to experience God\u2019s love.
Speak to us of faith, hope, and love, O Lord.<\/strong>
As the deer longs for flowing water in the wilderness,
we long to drink deeply of God\u2019s promise for us.
Knowing God is here, we join together on our journey.
Lead us to your still waters, O Lord.<\/strong>
Imprisoned by rules of our own making,
we come to remember and claim our faith.
Assured by the vision of Christ,
whose sacrifice leads us to heaven,
we come in fellowship with one another.
Clothe us in the love of Christ, O Lord.<\/strong>
With shouts of praise and songs of thanksgiving,
we come to celebrate the God of hope,
the Spirit of peace, and the Christ of redeeming love.
We come to pray.<\/strong>
We come to sing.<\/strong>
We come to worship and praise.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
