Prelude “Ask Ye What Great Thing I Know”
Welcome and Announcements
* Call to Worship
Leader: Early in the morning, our thoughts turn toward God. We have been led to this mountaintop of worship.
All: WE COME TRUSTING IN GOD’S STEADFAST LOVE AND COMPASSION. WE GATHER, SEEKING THE WAY OF SALVATION AND PEACE.
Leader: God has made an everlasting covenant with us. Let us proclaim God’s faithfulness to all generations.
All: SOMETIMES WE THINK GOD HAS FORGOTTEN US. AND THEN WE SEE HIS HAND, HIS MERCY, HIS COMPASSION.
Leader: God deals bountifully with us in much that we take for granted. God shows us the value of life and helps us celebrate it.
All: WE BRING OUR SORROW AND PAIN TO THIS HEALING TIME. MAY GOD PROVIDE WHAT WE NEED TO GROW IN CHRIST.
*Prayer of Adoration
*Opening Hymn # 408 “Where Cross the Crowded Ways of Life”
Prayer of Confession (unison)
WE ARE RUNNING SO FAST, GOD, AND WE DON’T KNOW HOW TO SLOW DOWN. WE CONSTANTLY CHECK OUR VOICE MAIL, OUR E-MAIL, AND STAY CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET. WE ARE BUSY AND YET NOT SATISFIED. WE ARE MOVING FASTER, BUT WE NEVER CATCH UP. WE ARE STRESSED, GOD. IS THIS THE WAY YOU MEANT US TO BE? SPEAK TO US ONCE AGAIN YOUR MESSAGE OF PEACE, OF WALKING BESIDE STILL WATERS, OF REFRESHING OUR SOULS, OF LYING DOWN IN MEADOWS OF GREEN. SPEAK TO US AGAIN OF YOUR CARE FOR THE BIRDS OF THE AIR AND THE CHILDREN AT PLAY. SPEAK TO OUR ANXIOUS HEARTS AND SPINNING MINDS THAT THINK IF WE ARE NOT DOING, THEN THERE IS NO BEING. RESTORE OUR BALANCE, LIGHTEN OUR DRIVEN-NESS AND MAKE HOLY OUR REST. IN JESUS’ NAME. AMEN.
(Moment of Silent Reflection)
Assurance of Pardon
Leader: The good news is that Christ calls us to new life and enables us to begin again and again and again and again.
The good news in Christ is that when we face ourselves and God with the awareness of our need, we are given grace to grow, and courage to continue the journey.
All: Jesus knows our every weakness and loves us still. Awaken to the promise of Christ's amazing grace. In Jesus Christ we are forgiven. Amen

All: And also with you!
