WELCOME TO WORSHIP!
Gathering
Prelude – "Prelude on INVITATION”
Meditation Thought for Worship: When someone does something we don’t like, we naturally don’t like them. We do that because we’ve done it since we were little kids. But Jesus calls us to mature past our childish behavior. When someone does something we don’t like, Jesus wants us to pray for them instead. Not in a spiteful way, but a way that will help them be better people, which will also help us be better, which is why Jesus told us to do it.
