CALL TO WORSHIP
Calling Song:          All Things Bright and Beautiful               UMH #147
All things bright and beautiful, all creatures great and small,
All things wise and wonderful, the Lord God made them all.
Each little flower that opens, each little bird that sings,
God made their glowing colors, and made their tiny wings
(repeat chorus)
 
RESPONSIVE READING:                             From Psalm 98
Leader:  Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth, burst into jubilant song with music.
People: Make music to the Lord with the harp, with the harp and the sound of singing,
 Leader: with trumpets and the blast of the ram's horn- shout for joy before the Lord, the King.

All: Let the rivers clap their hands, let the mountains sing together for joy.

*Commitment Hymn                How Great Thou Art                                       UMH #77
O Lord my God!
When I in awesome wonder
consider all
the worlds thy hands have made,
I see the stars,
I hear the rolling thunder,
they power throughout
the universe displayed.

Then sings my soul,
my Savior God to thee;
how great thou art,
how great thou art!
(repeat)
  
Unison Benediction
May the peace of the Lord Jesus go with you
wherever he may send you.
May he guide you through the wilderness,
protect you through the storm.
May he bring you home rejoicing
at the wonders he has shown you.
May he bring you home rejoicing once again into our doors.
