*PRAYER
OF INVOCATION AND THE LORD’S PRAYER (unison) Kristin
Lewis
As
your Children, Abba, Father, we pray for your presence in our worship. We pray
that you would
be with us; opening our ears to
hear your message, cleansing our lips to speak your words, and
preparing us to be sent forth that
the world might be saved through your Son. We pray these things
in the name of the one who was
lifted up and who taught us to pray:
Our Father who art in
heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come,
Thy will be done, on
earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread;
and forgive us our
debts, as we forgive our debtors; and lead us not
into temptation, but
deliver us from evil. For Thine is the kingdom,
and the power, and the
glory, forever. Amen.
