The Gathered

Click here to listen to Sunday's sermon based on Isaiah 56:1-8

Heavenly Father, 

We are by nature sinful and unclean.  We are rebellious, we are idolators.  We have broken every one of Your commandments, and we have refused to behave as Your children. 

Your love and grace towards mankind is nothing like what we find in our own hearts.  Yet at your invitation, we confess our sins, and You cover us in free and full forgiveness.  You unite us with Your Son, and call us Your own.  You open wide the doors to Your kingdom, and speak words of grace into our hearts.  

"You are forgiven, child.  Welcome Home."

Keep us safe in Your home, Father.  Sustain our lives and our faith by Your Word.  Let Your love flow abundantly into our hearts, that it may fill us up to overflowing.  May Your grace move us to pour that love on others, to bring them to You, that they may also be welcomed into Your eternal home.

In the name of Jesus, Amen

Welcome all,
to one of God's houses.
