WELCOME Pastor Stephanie Price & Brandon Cauthon
*Call to Worship (Psalm 46:1-6,10-11)
ONE: God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
ALL: Therefore we will not fear, though the earth should change, though the mountains shake in the heart of the sea; though its waters roar and foam, though the mountains tremble with its tumult.
ONE: There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the holy habitation of the Most High.
ALL: God is in the midst of the city; it shall not be moved; God will help it when the morning dawns.
ONE: The nations are in an uproar, the kingdoms totter; he utters his voice, the earth melts.
ALL: “Be still, and know that I am God! I am exalted among the nations, I am exalted in the earth.”
ONE: The LORD Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress.
*OPENING HYMN A Mighty Fortress Is Our God UMH 110, v. 1, 2, 4

*Prayer of Dedication (Liturgist Only)
Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. We cannot bear fruit alone. We belong to one another, to the cosmos, to the Spirit of the Living God. We are made from the same elements—carbon, hydrogen… hope and love. Bless our gathered gifts today, oh God. Keep us rooted in wonder and in ordinary acts of care. Amen.
