Help us to proclaim the wondrous things that you have done and continue to do in our lives. Give us strength and courage to share the Good News of your love and your presence. For we ask this in Jesus’ Name. AMEN. PRELUDE & LIGHTING OF THE ALTAR CANDLES: “Joyful, Joyful, We Adore Thee” *HYMN “Stand Up, Stand Up for Jesus” - #514 CALL TO WORSHIP: L: Come, Holy Spirit! Ignite our hearts with joy and confidence! P: For God has done wondrous things for us. L: Come, Holy Spirit! Fill us with the power of the rushing wind that we may faithfully serve you in all that we do. P: For Christ has called each of us and blessed us! L: Come, Holy Spirit! Be with us today. P: Help us to boldly proclaim Christ Risen. AMEN. HYMN “In Moments Like These” PRAYER OF CONFESSION: Lord God, you know us too well. You know that we would be like the disciples following the crucifixion and even the resurrection. We would rather hide and mutter and weep, than proclaim the power of your love. The world is a difficult place. We fear so much. We want people to like us, and so we hold back on our proclamation of our faith. We don’t want to offend anyone. But your love and presence are not offensive. They are empowering and healing. Bring your holy fire upon us this day to ignite a spark of joy in our hearts and our voices. Bring the power of your rushing wind through our spirits that we may be turned in new directions for service and witness. We pray this in Jesus’ Name. AMEN.
