Call to Worship
In every place, in every moment,
God is present with us.
In this place, at this moment,
God is present in bread and wine.
We gather in faith that God prepares a feast
of good things for all God’s people.
We gather seeking nourishment
from the bread of life.
With hope for our hungry souls,
let us worship God.
