As we come to worship this day, Holy Spirit, rush upon us like onthat day of Pentecost. Re-Create us by the Father's grace so thatdivisions turn to dusty ash and walls of pride collapse. Word madeFlesh, spill from our mouths, your message of love for God,neighbor and self. Father, Son and Holy Spirit, dance throughoutour music, prayers and worship today, that we might know you sowell that leaving this place, we cannot help but go and share YouWords of eternal life. Amen.
