Welcome

Prelude/Time of Meditation/Prayer

Call to Worship* (Responsively)


    Welcome pilgrims on the way to the cross.
    We are learning to follow Jesus.
    On this Lenten journey, where do we find God’s
    presence among us?
    One thing we know: God calls us to witness
    extraordinary love in ordinary moments.
    On this Lenten journey, how does God’s presence
    work among us?
    One thing we know: God uses the messy and
    mundane to heal and restore us to one another.
    On this Lenten journey, what does God’s presence do
    in our midst?
    One thing we know: God opens us to recognize
    presence, sustenance, and abundance where the
    world perceives isolation and lack.
    Pilgrims on the way, come let us worship God!
    Amen!

     As we go, may your Spirit go before us.
    As we go, may we follow where You lead.
    May we live what we have learned,
    Share the message we have heard.
    And be a light unto the world as we go.

*What is a “Project Dinner”? So glad you asked! The American Baptist Women Ministries of the Central Region chooses one or more projects each year to help financially. This year, the collective ABW groups (there are 7 in the Central Region) are all working together to collect $30,000--$15,000 for the American Baptist ministry in Kodiak, Alaska, and $15,000 for the American Baptist campground, Camp Christy. All contributions from the meal go into the larger pool for the benefit of these two endeavors. Each year, the ABWMCR board chooses worthy projects to sponsor; and, this year is no exception. Please give as you are able.
