Call to Worship/Praise
This is the day which the Lord has made.
Let us rejoice and be glad in it.

Leader: This Easter, we are reminded that love is our greatest challenge. Accept the good news, love those around us, share food with those you meet.

All: As we worship, we listen for God’s voice. May we learn to love, accept, share and open the door to those whom we meet.

Collect.
Risen Christ,
you revealed yourself to the disciples
and calmed their fears:
meet us in our uncertainties
and walk with us into the new life you bring;
for you live and reign with the Father and the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and forever. Amen.

And may God hear and respond whenever you call;
May Christ Jesus make himself known to you in all things;
And may the Holy Spirit open your eyes and set your hearts on fire with love.

Go now to love and serve the Lord. Go in peace. Alleluia! Alleluia!
