Gathering Together
PRELUDE: “Wiegenlied “, Op. 124, No. 6a by Robert Schumann Eric MacKeracher WORDS OF WELCOME & ANNOUNCEMENTS ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF THE LAND (moment of silence) LIGHTING OF THE CHRIST CANDLE AND CALL TO WORSHIP Our God flings stars into space and says, “See! You are all my people, each and every one.” We come, the stars in the skies, the sand on the shore, drawn to God, drawn to love, drawn to worship
OPENING PRAYER: Star maker, as we gaze up at the night sky and look in wonder at these tiny dots of light, we remember that Abram was promised that his descendants would number more than the stars in the sky. We are his descendants, billions of us living thousands of years after Abram. Linking his story with our story, which is altogether your story. May we never forget that we are all one, that through you we are all part of the same family, part of the same story. Amen. OPENING HYMN: VU # 651 “Guide Me O Thou Great Jehovah”
