Call to Worship: Psalms 112: 1–9
“Praise the Lord! How happy is the man who honors the Lord with fear and finds joy in His law. His children will be powerful in the land. Each family who is right will be happy. Riches and well-being are in his house. And his right-standing with God will last forever. Light rises even in darkness for the one who is right. He is kind and has loving-pity and does what is right. Good will come to the man who is ready to give much, and fair in what he does. He will never be shaken. The man who is right and good will be remembered forever. He will not be afraid of bad news. His heart is strong because he trusts in the Lord. His heart will not be shaken. He will not be afraid and will watch those lose who fight against him. He has given much to the poor. His right-standing with God lasts forever. His horn will be lifted high in honor.”

Prayer for Peace
“We come before You, Prince of Peace. We confess our sins, our faultfinding with others and with ourselves, our ways that are ‘unpeaceful.’ Free us to focus our thoughts on You, listening for that inner peace of the Holy Spirit to guide our hearts, the hearts of our community, and of our world. In the name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior. Amen.”

Disciples’ Generous Response
- Reader 1: For behold, are we not all beggars? Do we not all depend upon the same God, for both food and raiment, for all the riches that we have of every kind?
- Reader 2: Behold, even at this time, you have been calling on His name and begging for a remission of your sins. And has He suffered that you have begged in vain?
- Reader 1: No, He has poured out His Spirit upon you, and caused that your hearts should be filled with joy…exceedingly great joy.
- Reader 2: Now, if God, who has created you, on whom you are dependent for your lives and for all that you have and are, grants to you whatever you ask that is right, in faith, believing that you shall receive, oh, then, how had you ought to impart of the substance that you have, one to another?
