Call
to Worship
(inspired
by Luke 13:6-9)
The season
of Lent can be barren and lonely,
but God goes with us
but God goes with us
through the
wild wilderness.
Our lives are lived
Our lives are lived
in seasons
of transitions and transformations.
Lent is a time to ponder
Lent is a time to ponder
God's
providence and persistence.
Together, we seek fruitfulness,
Together, we seek fruitfulness,
for it has
been promised to us;
the barrenness of Lent
the barrenness of Lent
will give
way to the fruitfulness of Easter.
In this season of penitence and pondering,
In this season of penitence and pondering,
let us
gather before God.
We come, as a family,
We come, as a family,
to wait for
the Lord with strength and courage.
Come, let us worship God!
Come, let us worship God!
