“Praise God from Whom all Blessings Flow”
CALL TO WORSHIP [⁞] A Litany for Pentecost (Adapted from Reverend Marshod Evans)
Leader:
Shhhh! Can’t you hear it? Listen, . . . there is a rustling, . . . a whirling, building, . . . a roaring, a mighty and rushing wind, God’s Holy Wind.
People:
As we gather in this place of worship, we have eagerly awaited the manifestation of Your Spirit.
Leader:
Then it appeared, the Spirit, and in a blaze, a fiery instant; accord achieved, hearts aligned, prayers answered, promise arrived, ears attuned, eyes awakened, challenge accepted, disciples assigned.
People:
Let that same Spirit free our hearts and minds to worship and praise today.
Leader:
Do what you did on that first Pentecost. Fill this place with Your wind, touch us with Your fire, “open our lips and our mouths will declare Your praise.”
People:
Do it again God, do it again in this place and in our lives.
Leader:
Let every word spoken and sung, preached and prayed be saturated in Your Spirit, that our words might bring life and liberation, laughter and love: That Your kingdom come, and Your will be done.
People:
Anoint us for Your holy purpose, to bring Your message to the world.
Leader:
Allow our souls to catch on fire in this place, so when we leave here our flames can provide both heat and light for our otherwise cold and dim reality.
All:
Let the world hear our testimony, let the nations hear our praise. Amen.

PREFACE TO THE DECALOGUE Hymn #69 [⁞]
From all that dwell below the skies,
Let the Creator’s praise arise;
Let the redeemer’s name be sung,
Through every land by every tongue.”
DECALOGUE (Summary) [⁞]
Leader:
Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
GLORIA PATRI [⁞]
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost. As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen
AFFIRMATION OF FAITH (The Apostles Creed) [⁞]
I believe in God, the Father almighty, Maker of heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, and was crucified, dead, and buried. The third day he arose from the dead; he ascended to heaven, and sitteth on the right hand of God, the Father Almighty: from thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Church Universal, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen.
Let the Creator’s praise arise;
Let the redeemer’s name be sung,
Through every land by every tongue.”
