I cry aloud to God, aloud that God may hear me. In the day of my trouble I seek the Lord, in the night my hand is stretched out continually; my soul refuses to be comforted.

Your way, O God, is holy. What god is great like our God?

When the waters saw you, O God, when the waters saw you, they were afraid, the very deeps trembled. The clouds poured out water; the skies gave forth thunder; your arrows flashed on every side. The crash of your thunder was in the whirlwind; your lightnings illumined the world; the earth trembled and shook.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ INVITATION TO CHRISTIAN DISCIPLESHIP MINISTRY THROUGH TITHES AND OFFERINGS By: Rev. Dr. Ken Sloane Director of Stewardship & Generosity, Discipleship Ministries, The United Methodist Church Loving and Welcoming God: We have come through a time in our lives, when for many months, we sheltered in our homes — working from home, learning from home, worshiping from home. As we bring our tithes and offering to you this morning, you open our minds to a wider definition of home, and a broader definition of family. May the gifts we give today, find their way to home projects — ways this world can feel like a safer, more loving home to all your children. In Christ’s holy name, we pray. Amen. (Luke 9:51-62)
BLESSING AND SENDING FORTH Go in peace. “Send Me I’ll Go” By: Canton Spirituals
