Call to Worship
Friends, as we gather to worship God on this Lord’s Day, let us proclaim the central
mystery of our faith:
Christ has died, Christ is risen, Christ will come again.
Christ has died for our sins;
Christ was raised on the third day;
and Christ will come again to raise those who belong to him.
This is what has been preached to us, and this is what we have believed.
May this Christ be known to us in worship and daily living.
