Words of Welcome  

Marking of the Hour Barbara Moore We mark the hour, awakening us to the presence of God, alerting us to the voice of Christ, and centering 

us in the embrace of the Holy Spirit.  

Opening Words  Rev. Alba Beasley  Prelude  Barbara Moore 

“We Bow Down” (Hayes)  

Lighting the Candles Ministers We light these candles to welcome the Spirit, for they represent how Jesus is the Light of the world 

which guides us through life.  

Opening the Bible Ministers  We open the Bible to remind us that God speaks to us through the Holy Word.  

 Call to Worship Rev. Val Fisk 

Almighty God, giver of life, your light shines in our lives 

and your glory is revealed through your Son, Jesus Christ. 

Reveal his glory to us as you did to Peter, James, and John, that we may be filled with his power 

and our mouths may proclaim his presence forevermore.   Surround us with your glory so that we may become  

the lights that shine in the darkness of this world,  revealing your glory for the transformation of all. Amen.
