*Call To Worship
One: Isaiah: surprised by the Holy One in the Temple — A vision, a call, a response:
All: Here I am: Send me!
One: Paul: surprised by the Spirit at his hateful work — An interruption, a challenge, a
response:
All: I received from the Lord the word of grace I now proclaim!
One: Weary fisher folk: surprised by Jesus at their empty boats -— A sign, a promise, a
response:
All: They left everything to follow!
One: Let us worship the One whose call surprises and challenges us.
