CALL TO WORSHIP
Leader: We gather as people looking for the star, a sign that God is at work in the world.
People: God, help us find your glory.
Leader: We gather as people listening for the whispers of the Spirit, hints of the good news in the least likely places.
People: God, help us notice your glory.
Leader: We gather as people yearning for Love’s presence, the assurance that we are not alone and Love will have the last word.
People: God, help us encounter your glory.
Leader: On this Epiphany Sunday, may the Light of Love shine among us, revealing divine glory through neighbors known and unknown, vulnerable children, and unexpected gifts.
People: God, reveal to us anew the glory of your expansive Love that gathers us together and sustains us in loving service to one another and all creation. Amen.
