WELCOME & ANNOUNCEMENTS
OPENING PRAYER:
God, as we step into this time of worship, our hope is simple: that everything we say, sing, and do would lift you up. We want to hear your truth, learn from your Word, and respond with open hearts. We’ve made plans, but we ask for your Spirit to lead the way. If you take us in a new direction, help us follow. Thank you for bringing us together today. We’re excited to see what you’ll do in us and through us. Amen.

MORNING PRAYER
Lord, we admit—we don’t always reflect your love the way we should. Sometimes our words, actions, or attitudes make others feel unwelcome, even when we don’t mean to. But we want to change. Help us become the kind of people—and the kind of church—where everyone feels invited, included, and loved. Guide us as we grow together in faith and kindness. We pray this in Jesus’ name. Amen.
