Call to Worship [Based on 1 John 3:1-7]
We are invited to be
together in the presence of God.
We are invited to delight
together in time spent
in the presence of one
who loves us
and whom we love.
We are invited to learn
together more and more
what it means to belong
to the family of God.
Let us say yes!
Let us worship God!
See what love the Father has given us, that we should be called children of God; and that is what we are. The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him. Beloved, we are God’s children now; what we will be has not yet been revealed. What we do know is this: when he is revealed, we will be like him, for we will see him as he is.
1 John 3:1-2
