Welcome & Announcements
Prelude ““He Leadeth Me” arr. M. Bober
Peace Across the Divide
Re-Orientation
Call to Worship:
God of All of Us, we ask you to hover close,
for we are a divided world, and we are not sure how to regard one another in this moment.
Bind us as your beloveds,
and invite us to “do unto others” in ways that build up your kin-dom on earth as it is in heaven.
We pray this in the name of Jesus,
the Center That Holds, and in the power of the Spirit That Transforms. Amen.
**Hymn #401 “Gather Us In” (vs 1,2, 4)
**Affirmation of Faith
In life and death we belong to God. We trust in Jesus Christ, fully human, fully God. We trust in God, whom Jesus called Abba, Father. In sovereign love God created the world good and makes everyone equally in God’s image, of every race and people, to live in one community. We trust in God the Holy Spirit, everywhere the giver and renewer of life. With believers in every time and place, we rejoice that nothing in life or in death can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.

For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen.
