✟ Call to Worship
L: Followers of Christ, God calls us just as we are to live as truth-tellers and gospel-bringers in the world.
P: God, we know you call us, and still, we ask, “Who am I that you would call me?”
L: Like Moses standing before the burning bush convinced of his unworthiness to lead your people out of bondage, we ask,
P: “Who am I that you would call me?”
L: As we raise this question to God today, we open our hearts to receive God’s answer:
P: Lord, we come to you in gratitude for all you do for us. AMEN.
