CALL TO
WORSHIP Lord, Listen to Your Children Praying Medema
Lord,
listen to your children praying, Lord, send your Spirit in this place;
Lord,
listen to your children praying, send us love, send us power, send us grace.
PRAYER OF
CONFESSION (in unison)
Lord,
you are the One who is constant in your watching over us. Although we cannot always see your hand, help
us to keep watch for the subtle power you create in our lives. It is the power of forgiveness when we are
able to overcome the hurt that has been done to us. It is the power of peace when we find waves of
contentment wash away hatred. It is the
power of your presence when we have done all we can to stand, then you fill us
to overflowing. Forgive us when we are
not watching for your power, and remind
us that those who wait on you will be renewed in the Holy Spirit. Amen

The bread, served today during World Communion, is a flourless, organic,
whole grain bread. It is made with the ingredients in the scripture verse
that gives the bread its name: “Take also unto thee wheat, and barley, and
beans, and lentils, and millet, and spelt, and put them in one vessel, and make
bread of it. . .” Ezekiel 4:9
