PRAYER OF THE DAY silent
St. Ignatius of Loyola
Take, Lord, and receive all my liberty, my memory, my understanding and my entire will, all I have and call my own. You have given all to me. To you, Lord, I return it. Everything is yours; do with it what you will. Give me only your love and your grace; that is enough for me. PRELUDE Praise to the Lord, the Almighty
WELCOME

CALL TO WORSHIP responsive Many people sing this hymn unaware that it paraphrases Psalm 90, partly because this text speaks so immediately to
the human condition. Since the middle of the 19th century, it has usually been joined to this tune named for the London parish where the composer was organist.
We are children of God, learning to walk. Day by day, we are learning to be the church. God is a loving parent, teaching us to walk. God loves us, leads us, and frees us. Let us worship God!
HYMN 687 Our God, Our Help in Ages Past
