Call to WorshipGather at the mountain of God’s holiness.Today is a day to celebrate God.Gather aware of those you left behind to be here.Today is a day to stand in the gap between God and God’s children.Gather to share God’s presence.Today is a day of transformation for us and for God’s world.

Prayer of InvocationLiving God, at times you seem so distant; help us know you are near. At times we stray; welcome us home. Standing in your presence, we know there are other people we could be with;

Page 17: Welcome to MCC! Oct. 12, 2014

help us bridge the gap between your presence and the people we love. We pray in the name of Christ who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.

Prayer of Confession

When we have fashioned idols of our own desire or worshiped the temples of our own tradition, Lord, have mercy.

Page 19: Welcome to MCC! Oct. 12, 2014

When we have denied your invitation to the banquet of love and justice, or failed to extend the invitation to others, Christ, have mercy.

Page 20: Welcome to MCC! Oct. 12, 2014

When we have adorned ourselves with worry rather than joy or failed to be gentle, knowing you are near, Lord, have mercy.
