Opening
Prayer
We
come here to worship you, O God, because you have called us. As we worship, may we realize the parched
state of our souls, and know that only you can provide refreshing waters. We may notice that we are spiritually hungry,
and so we ask for this hour to be a time when we can feast the green
pastures. We may realize that we have
wandered from the path you would have us walk, and so we ask that you lead us
back to the right path. We go gratefully
where you will lead us. Amen.

Our
Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, thy will be
done on earth as it is in heaven. Give

who trespass against
us. Lead us not into temptation, but
deliver us from evil, for Thine is the
kingdom, and the power and the glory forever.
Amen.
