Start the Day with Praise: “We Believe in God” by Amy Grant
Call to Worship
James 1:5–6 AMP
If any of you lacks wisdom to guide him through a decision or circumstance, he is to ask of our benevolent God, who gives to everyone generously and without rebuke or blame, and it will be given unto him. But he must ask for wisdom in faith, without doubting God’s willingness to help, for the one who doubts is like a billowing surge of the sea that is blown about and tossed by the wind.
Gathering Hymn: “Great and Marvelous Are Thy Works” CCS 118
Invocation
Light the Candle of Peace and Prayer for Peace
Leader: God, when we cry out in desperation, wondering if You hear our prayers, help us remember that You call us as disciples of Christ to be Your answer to people’s prayers and ambassadors of Christ’s peace.
People: Grant us the wisdom to recognize the needs of those around us and the courage to respond faithfully.
Leader: In the moments of darkness, may we become beacons of Your Son’s light.
People: In the face of brokenness, may we be channels of Your Grace.
Leader: For those experiencing loneliness, may we offer the embrace of Your unconditional love.
People: In times of scarcity, may we reflect on your boundless generosity.
Leader: For those overwhelmed by hopelessness, may we offer the comfort and confidence found in the presence of Your Spirit.
People: Where there is destruction, may we tirelessly work for justice and share the Peace of Christ,
All: in Whose Name we pray this prayer for peace. Amen.
