INVOCATION
One: Let us pray.
All: Eternal God, we have come this morning to worship and adore you. We have come into this place, gathered in Jesus’ name, to worship you. You are worthy of our praise. You formed us in your image, called us your children, and you made a covenant with us. When we forgot, you sent your Son Jesus Christ, to reconciled us to you, to one another, and to ourselves. We thank you for your saving grace, for your love, and for your Holy Spirit that teaches us to walk in your way. Inhabit our praise this morning. Renew us and strengthen our faith, that we may continue to faithfully serve you. Amen.
