First Congregational United Church of Christ

Third Sunday in Lent

Rev George Reed

Reflection: Do I see the community I live in as a holy task?

Greeting

Prelude How Beautiful Peggy Bast/Organ

Call to Worship

The heavens are telling the glory of God.

The firmament proclaims God’s handiwork.

The law of God is perfect, reviving the soul.

The decrees of God are sure, making wise the simple.

Let the words of our mouths and the meditation of our hearts

be acceptable to you, O God, our rock and our redeemer.

Prayer for the Day

Let us pray:

O God who is Three in One:

Grant us the grace to see that there is unity in diversity

so that we may truly live as your children together. Amen.
