KNOLLWOOD AT WORSHIP

Please silence all electronic devices. Thank you! THE CHIMES
Three chimes are sounded, awakening us to the presence of God, alerting us to the voice of Christ, centering us in the embrace of the Spirit. As we gather, we present ourselves “as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is our spiritual worship.”

THE CALL TO WORSHIP ......................................................................................... Rozanna Vancil Goocey One: Sing praises to God, all you faithful ones. All: God hears us in our fear and our sorrow. One: Where there was no way, All: God leads us in a new way. One: Where there was no mercy, All: God surprises us with fresh mercy. One: Where there was weeping, All: God invites us to step into a new dance. ~Rev. Susan A. Blain, from Worship Ways http://uccfiles.com/

Almighty God, you love us, but we have not loved you. You call, but we have not listened. We walk away from neighbors in need, wrapped in our own concerns. We condone evil, prejudice, warfare, and greed.
God of grace, help us to admit our sin, so that as you come to us in mercy, we may repent, turn to you, and receive forgiveness; through Jesus Chris our Redeemer.
* Those who are able will stand. † Ushers will seat those waiting. Hearing aids and large print hymns are available from the ushers.
