Call to Worship* – Charles Gullion
Then I will pour out my spirit on all flesh, thus says the Lord.
Send down the fire of your justice!
Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,
Send down the rain of your love!
Your old shall dream dreams,
and your young shall see visions.
Send down your Spirit, breathe life in your people!
In those days, I will pour out my spirit.
And we shall be people of God.
Children’s Sermon – Rev. Lisa Williams Hood
Hymn of Devotion – “Be Still, for the Spirit of the Lord”
(Verse 1) Be still, for the Spirit of the Lord, the Holy One is here.
Come, bow before him now, with reverence and with fear.
In him no sin is found, we stand on holy ground.
Be still, for the Spirit of the Lord, the Holy One, is here.
(Verse 3) Be still, for the power of the Lord is moving in this place.
He comes to cleanse and heal, to minister his grace.
No work too hard for him, in faith receive from him.
Be still, for the power of the Lord is moving in this place.

Hymn of Hope – “Come Build a Church”
(Refrain) Come build a church with soul and spirit, come build a church of flesh and bone.
We need no tower rising skyward; no house of wood, or glass, or stone.
Come build a church with human frailty, Come build a church of flesh and blood.
Jesus shall be its sure foundation. It shall be built by the hand of God.
(Verse 1) Let us see the tongues of fire. Let us hear the great wind roar.
Let us know the awe and wonder, that we’ve only glimpsed before.
Let us feel the strength of passion, which can make us laugh and weep.
Let us know this great awakening. For so long we’ve been asleep.
(Refrain) Come build a church with soul and spirit, come build a church of flesh and bone.
We need no tower rising skyward; no house of wood, or glass, or stone.
Come build a church with human frailty, Come build a church of flesh and blood.
Jesus shall be its sure foundation. It shall be built by the hand of God.
(Verse 3) Guide our feet in peaceful pathways. Teach us peace of heart and mind;
Peace with God and all God’s children; till we leave our wars behind.
Surely joy will come and find us like a breeze that cools the night;
Like the rain upon the desert; like a candle’s gentle light.
(Refrain) Come build a church with soul and spirit, come build a church of flesh and bone.
We need no tower rising skyward; no house of wood, or glass, or stone.
Come build a church with human frailty, Come build a church of flesh and blood.
Jesus shall be its sure foundation. It shall be built by the hand of God.
