*Opening Hymn ‘Stand Up, Stand Up for Jesus’ RCH#481

*Opening Prayer (in Unison) Loving God, your ways are holy and good and your love is strong and true. You are swift to answer those who trust in you - those who walk in your ways and who make your living word their daily hope. Bless, we pray, our gathering today. Touch our hearts and our minds with the fire of your Holy Spirit. Grant that our praise may be more than words - our prayer more than speech -- our songs more than mere harmony. Teach us and comfort us - strengthen us and lead us - that we might draw closer to you. We ask it in Jesus' name. Amen!
