Welcome & Greetings

Praise Songs/Choruses UECF Choir

*Call to Worship(Responsive Reading):

Leader: At one time we were without Christ - aliens from the commonwealth of Israel. People: We were strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world. Leader: But now in Christ Jesus we who once were far off have been brought near to God by the blood of Christ. People: He is our peace; in his flesh he has broken down the walls that divide us.

*Opening Hymn ‘Great is Thy Faithfulness’ MRCH#43

*Opening Prayer(in unison): Loving God, your steadfast love never ceases and your mercies never come to an end. We thank you for breaking down the walls that divide us one from the other and the barriers that separate us from you. Be with us in this time of worship as we and our brothers and sisters around the world lift up your most holy name; we ask it through Jesus Christ, our Savior and Lord. AMEN!
