GREETING AND ANNOUNCEMENTS

PREPARATION AND PRAISE

PRELUDE

OPENING PRAYER (in unison):

Gracious God, we come before you today grateful for all that you provide. When we are tempted to think we never have enough, remind us that your grace is abundant and your provision is sufficient.

Teach us to trust you, to share what we have, and to see one another not through the eyes of scarcity, but through the eyes of your generosity.

As we hear your Word today, open our hearts to understand what it means to live by your economics of enough.

In the name of Jesus Christ, we pray.Amen.

*OPENING CHORUS:​  "Goodness of God"

Our Father, who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. 

Thy Kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses,

as we forgive those who trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

For thine is the kingdom, and the power and the glory forever. Amen.​
