CALL TO WORSHIP:  
 Beloved, let us love one another because love is from God.  
Everyone who loves is born of God and knows 
 whoever does not love does not know God, for God is love.

* PRAYER OF CONFESSION: (Unison) 
  Search me, O God, and know my heart; Try me and know  
my anxious thoughts.  See if there is any offensive way in me.  
and lead me in the way everlasting.  Cleanse me with Your mercy.  Shape me with Your truth. Guide me by Your Spirit that I may walk 
 in the light of Your presence and reflect Your love to the world.  In Jesus’ name, Amen
