 Payette United Methodist Church
February 24, 2024 – 11:00 AM Welcome Passing the Peace “Family of God” Calling Song: “And We Are Yet Alive” UMH#553 vs. 1,2,5,6 Call to Worship Macy Steckley One: Bless the Lord, who forgives all sin. Many: God's mercy endures forever! One: Come, let us worship the God of grace. Many: Lord, have mercy on us, and grant us your salvation. Opening Prayer (in unison) Macy Steckley Lord, make us instruments of your peace; where there is hatred, let us sow love; where there is injury, pardon; where there is doubt, faith; where there is darkness, light; where there is despair, hope; and where there is sadness, joy. O Divine Master, grant that we may not so much seek to be consoled as to console; to be understood as to understand; to be loved, as to love. For it is in giving that we receive; it is in pardoning that we are pardoned; and it is in dying that we are brought to abundant life. Amen.

Wherever it takes you, and to whomever it takes you, may you go with the blessing of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit, both now and forever. And now God, send us out to do your work. Invite us deeper into your world. Stir our hearts to outward focus, to seek those we often ignore.
