WE ARE GATHERED BY GOD
Welcome
God’s Greeting (responsive)
Grace and peace to you from him who is and who was and who is to come.
All praise to you, Mighty King, for your blessing upon us now, for your blessing upon us in what has been and for the gifts of grace and peace that are to come.
To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood, and made us to be a kingdom, priests serving his God and Father, to him be glory and dominion forever and ever.
All praise to you, Jesus Christ, for your great love for us, for giving yourself to us and for us, and for bringing us back to the Father.
“I am the Alpha and Omega,” says the Lord God, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.”
Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and might be to our God forever and ever! Amen.
