Call to Worship: Praise be to God!

Praise be to God,
who rescues us from the power of darkness;
who redeems us, and sets us free!

Praise be to Jesus Christ, the first born of all creation,
through whom all things were made,
in heaven and on the earth.

Praise be to the Spirit of God,
whose presence sustains us,
and whose breath renews all creation.

Behold! I am making all things new!
Come, O God, and make your home among us.
Pour out your Spirit, and renew the face of the earth.
