CALL TO WORSHIP Congregation
Come and find the quiet center in the crowded life we lead,
Find the room for hope to enter, find the frame where we are freed:
Clear the chaos and the clutter, clear our eyes that we can see
All the things that really matter, be at peace, and simply be.

In the Spirit let us travel, open to each other’s pain,

There’s a time for heart to care,
In the Spirit’s lively scheming, there is always room to spare.
†POSTLUDE Organist †All those able, please stand
NOW THE SERVICE BEGINS
Reflection Question: Why did Jesus share meals with so many different people? How can breaking bread together deepen relationships? This week, set aside
intentional time with family or friends to share a unhurried meal together. How
will Jesus be present at your table?

Busy Lenten Worship Series
Busy: Reconnecting with an Unhurried God
Come to me all you who are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, I will give you rest.
(Mat. 11:28)
The season of Lent has often been a time when we think about "giving something up.” But what if we thought less about "giving up" and more about
“slowing down” and "making room?" In this Lent series, we will find out what it really costs to be so busy. Join us as we reconnect with an unhurried God.
