Opening Song: Special Music from Ramsey Reyes & Sarah Joyce Cooper
Call to Worship
We were created in relationship and for relationship.
We are created for community!
God knew it was not right for us to be alone.
We are created for community!
Through Jesus Christ, God entered into human relationship with us.
We are created for community!
We rejoice in our unity with all humanity.
We are created for community!
Beginning with Blessing
Opening Prayer
Song of Worship Gather Us In Hymnal #511
Here in this place new light is streaming
Now is the darkness vanished away
See in this space our fears and our dreamings
Brought here to you in the light of this day
Gather us in, the lost and forsaken
Gather us in, the blind and the lame
Call to us now and we shall awaken
We shall arise at the sound of our name
We are the young, our lives are a mystery
We are the old who yearn for your face
We have been sung throughout all of history
Called to be light to the whole human race
Gather us in, the rich and the haughty
Gather us in, the proud and the strong
Give us a heart so meek and so lowly
Give us the courage to enter the song
Here we receive new life in the waters
Here we receive the bread of new birth
Here you shall call your sons and your daughters
Call us anew to be salt for the earth
Give us to drink the wine of compassion
Give us to eat the bread that is you
Nourish us well and teach us to fashion
Lives that are holy and hearts that are true
Not in the dark of buildings confining
Not in some heaven light years away
But here in this place the new light is shining
Now is the kingdom, now is the day
Gather us in and hold us forever
Gather us in and make us your own
Gather us in, all peoples together
Fire of love in our flesh and our bones
Passing of the Peace
Scripture: Psalm 116:57-64
You are my portion, Lord;
I have promised to obey your words.
58 I have sought your face with all my heart;
be gracious to me according to your promise.
59 I have considered my ways
and have turned my steps to your statutes.
60 I will hasten and not delay
to obey your commands.
61 Though the wicked bind me with ropes,
I will not forget your law.
62 At midnight I rise to give you thanks
for your righteous laws.
63 I am a friend to all who fear you,
to all who follow your precepts.
64 The earth is filled with your love, Lord;
teach me your decrees.

Sending Song: God Bless Your Church with Strength Hymnal #580
God bless your church with strength!
Wherever we may be
Build up your servants as we work in common ministry
Urge us from fledgling faith
To venture and to soar
Through open skies to sing the praise of Christ
Whom we adore
God bless your church with life!
May all our branches thrive
Unblemished wholesome
Bearing fruit, abundantly alive
From you, one holy vine, in freedom may we grow
Sustain us in our mission, Lord, your love and peace to show
God bless your church with hope! Despite chaotic days
May we in darkness shine to light a pathway through life’s maze
May justice be our aim
And kindness ours to share
In humbleness O may we walk
Assured our God is there!
