Call To Worship

 

Let’s take a moment and hear the quiet.

Take a moment, and hear the noise.

Bird’s singing, children playing,

Traffic moving, music playing.

 

Let’s take a moment

And listen for the voice of God.

 

Can you hear it, can you hear the wind?

Come Holy Spirit, breathe in us today.

 

Can you see it, the dancing flames?

Come Holy spirit and set our hearts ablaze.

 

Can you hear the message in your own language?

Come Holy Spirit and talk to our hearts.

 

Do you see visions, do you dream dreams?

Then come, all people of God,

come and let Pentecost become real today.

Come and worship our God

Who sends the Spirit to touch and transform us

Into Pentecost people.

 

Song: Here I am to Worship

 

Light of the world

You stepped down into darkness

Opened my eyes, let me see

Beauty that made this heart adore You

Hope of a life spent with You

Here I am to worship

Here I am to bow down

Here I am to say that You're my God

You're altogether lovely

Altogether worthy

Altogether wonderful to me

 

King of all days

Oh so highly exalted

Glorious in heaven above

Humbly You came to the earth You created

All for love's sake became poor

Come, Holy Spirit, come

 

Lord’s prayer

 

Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name,

Your kingdom come, Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our sins

as we forgive those who sin against us.

Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil.

For the Kingdom, the power and the glory are yours.

Now and forever.  Amen.

 

Blessing of our offerings

 

Closing Responses

 

Go forth now as Pentecost people,

filled with the Spirit, dreaming dreams,

and seeing visions of God's possibilities.

We go forth, knowing we are beloved and blessed

by a God who never leaves us alone

 

Go, to be surprised by the Spirit in all that you do

and everywhere that you go

We go, claiming our identity as Pentecost people,

people of wind and fire, dreams and visions,

people filled with that most amazing

and transforming Spirit. Amen.

 

The Grace:

 

May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ

And the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit

Be with us all evermore.  Amen
