We Pray for Christ’s Presence Call to Worship..............................................................................Pastor Dan Stevens Leader: We come to worship faithfully, God. We are here again this morning. We come faithfully, but
there’s a part of all of us that doubts, that wonders, “Are You really there? Are You really listening? Can we really trust You?” We live in a world where we cannot live without You. This morning, give us an assurance of what we cannot always see, a conviction of hope in Your presence and Your power. We want to be faith-filled, confident in Your abiding and unfailing love for us. All:
Amen
Pass the Blessing of Christ’s Peace (congregation standing)
