Call to Worship
God is our Rock and our Fortress.
In God, we find refuge and strength.
God’s house has many dwelling places.
We will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
Christ himself has gone to prepare a place for us.
For us, Jesus is the way, the truth and the life.
So let us worship God in Spirit and in Truth.
