GATHERING TOGETHER
Welcome to God’s grace – where the world’s labels don’t apply.
Step into God’s time and presence. Hear God’s gentle whisper: “Be still and know that I am God.”
Let your body and mind rest, and open your heart to God in worship and prayer. Welcome each
other in the love of Christ. Extend hospitality to those new in our midst. “This is the day the Lord has
made. Let us rejoice in it!”

PRAYERS OF INTERCESSION
Longing for Christ’s reign to come among us, we pray for the outpouring of
God’s power on the church, the world, and all in need.
A brief silence
Holy God, rouse us to deep praise as we gather for worship. Enliven our
worship with sincere and heartfelt song. Sustain the work of all church
musicians and artists who lead us in praise and prayer. Hear us, O God.
Your mercy is great.
Holy Creator, surprise and delight us with the beauty of the world you have
made. Bless the work of landscapers, architects, and artists whose work
invites us into harmonious living with your creation. Hear us, O God. Your
mercy is great.
Holy Judge, let justice roll down like waters over this world. Reign over the
courtrooms of every land, in the hearts of those who guard the law and
those who stand accused of crimes. Be present in cases where we long for
both justice and mercy to prevail. Hear us, O God. Your mercy is great.
Holy Companion, console those who feel lonely or abandoned. Share the
hours of those who live and eat alone. Comfort those who have few friends
or who struggle with their identity and place in this world. Hear us, O God.
Your mercy is great.
Holy Protector, be with all observing Veterans Day. Guard the lives of active
duty and retired military personnel. Comfort all who mourn those who have
died in the line of duty. Heal the wounds, both physical and mental,
experienced by service members. Hear us, O God. Your mercy is great.
Receive our prayers in the name of Jesus Christ our Savior, until that day
when you gather all creation around your throne where you will reign
forever and ever. Amen

We lift them to the Lord.
Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
It is right to give our thanks and praise.
It is indeed right, our duty and our joy, that we should at all times and in all
places give thanks and praise to you, almighty and merciful God, through our
Savior Jesus Christ; who on this day overcame death and the grave, and by
his glorious resurrection opened to us the way of everlasting life. And so, with
all the choirs of angels, with the church on earth and the hosts of heaven, we
praise your name and join their unending hymn:

trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us

forever and ever. Amen
