Call to Worship

Why do we do what we do in worship? It is a good and fair question. One that we are allowing the Psalms to help us answer. This week, we focus on what it means to be a people "Called to Worship."

Below is a quotation to center your thoughts and a new song we will be introducing into the liturgy on Sunday morning. Take a listen (or 12) as we all prayerfully prepare for the work of worship.

When we come together to worship we do so in response to God’s call.  In the gathering, we acknowledge that God has invited us to meet with him through his Son, Jesus Christ.  God takes the initiative to invite us to worship and we respond with great joy.  We say a hearty “Yes!” to the invitation and prepare to celebrate the greatness of the God who desires to be in fellowship with us.  A dialogue has begun.  God calls us to worship; to this invitation we joyfully respond.
