There is a new creation

Gathering

Leader: God shows steadfast love. God makes plants grow and
bear fruit.
People: Let us give thanks to the Lord.
Leader: God is faithful and worthy of our praise. God gives us
confidence and life.
People: Let us make music to God’s name.
Leader: God is our rock, the foundation upon which we build
our lives.
People: Let us follow God all of our days.
All: We will give thanks and make music and follow God.
Come, let us worship.

Offering

You are our God, the One who takes the smallest mustard seed
and grows it into a large plant. You are the One who makes
trees grow and flourish; the One who creates new things from
the old. Accept our gifts of time, money, and talents. Make
them grow large and help them to flourish. Make them grow
into a new creation so that your work and your will may be
done on earth. Amen.

Sending

Give thanks for God’s steadfast love and faithfulness. Praise
God’s name, knowing that we are planted in God’s plan and
will flourish. Go in faith, knowing that God will spring forth a
new creation, doing new work in our lives.
—Mary Ann Weber, Goshen, Indiana
