ANNOUNCEMENTS
CALL TO WORSHIP God loves us. God cares for us. God blesses us. God tends to us.
We are God’s precious fruit and faithful seed. God hears us. God helps us. God trusts us. God tries us. Sometimes we are more faulty seed than precious fruit. But, no matter what, we are God’s.
OPENING HYMN:”Blessed Assurance, Jesus is Mine” #369 UMH
OPENING PRAYER O God, when all things come to their end, you bring us into the city of resurrection of your Son. Shelter every nation and tongue with your Spirit, and feed us all with joy unending; through Christ our Lord. Amen. Alleluia.
