Love is the whole and

more than all.

~E.E. Cummings

♫ ➨

Your life is a Sacred Journey – and it is about change,

growth, discovery, movement, transformation,

continuously expanding your vision of what is possible,

stretching your soul, learning to see clearly & deeply,

listening to your intuition, taking courageous risks, embracing

challenges at every step along the way.

You are on the path – exactly where

you’re meant to be right now...and from here,

you can only go forward, shaping your life story

into a magnificent tale of triumph, of healing, of courage,

beauty, wisdom, power, dignity & love.

– Caroline Joy Adams

Loving God, we have come to rest in your Spirit. On this summer morning, we give thanks for the beauty of the sunrise and the promise of this day. Give us eyes to see and hearts to experience the movement of your Presence among us. Fill us with love for the Creation and hope for the future. For the diversity of all you have created, we are filled with gratitude as we offer our worship. In your name we pray, Amen.

prayerS of the people by Mark Berry

O Breathing Life, your Name shines everywhere! Release a space to plant your Presence here. Imagine your possibilities now. Embody your desire in every light and form. Grow through us this moment’s bread and wisdom. Untie the knots of failure binding us, as we release the strands we hold of others’ faults Help us not forget our Source, Yet free us from not being in the Present. From you arises every Vision, Power and Song from gathering to gathering. May our future actions grow from here! Amen.
