Welcome and Notices

Call to Worship
Leader:  O LORD, you have searched me and known me.
All:  You know when we sit down and when we rise up; you discern our thoughts from far away.
Leader:  Even before a word is on my tongue, O LORD, you know it completely.
All:  Such knowledge is too wonderful; it is so high that it cannot be attained.

We say the Collect together:
Stir up, O Lord, the will of your faithful people, that richly bearing the fruit of good works, we may by you be richly rewarded; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who is alive and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever.
