Prelude/Meditation
*Call to Worship (Responsively)
You have been invited to a special feast.
We need more details, for our schedules are very busy.
This is celebration of commitment between God and God’s people.
Maybe next time, we have other plans. What is God going to do if we don’t come?
Your response is noted. There are many others who would be delighted to come, even on a last-minute notice. God looks forward to greeting them and celebrating with them.
Will we get a second chance? God forgive us for placing our schedules and other plans before coming to your celebration. AMEN.
