Prelude
WE COME TO GOD
Welcome and God’s Greeting (responsive)
The love of God has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us;
we dwell in him and he in us.
Give thanks to the Lord and call upon his name;
make known his deeds among the peoples.
Sing to him, sing praises to him,
and speak of all his marvelous works.
Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God almighty,
who was and is and is to come!
