Prelude

Welcome & Announcements

*Call To Worship

One: Lift up your voice like a trumpet! Sound the alarms on the mountains.
All: We gather to begin again With fasting, mourning, and hoping.

One: Take your space, take deep breaths. The wilderness is beckoning.
All: We gather to begin again. Restore to us the joy of your salvation.

One: Create in us clean hearts, o God. Renew a righteous spirit.
All: We gather to begin again. The Lenten journey calls us forth.

One: Dust will praise, crushed bones will rejoice. Let us join the holy noise.
All: We gather to begin again. Help us to build where all seems broken. We must
build where all seems broken.
