*Call to Worship
We come with praise for the wonderful works of God.
Even before we speak God knows us completely.
The Holy One knows us and sustains us, even in our moments of confusion and doubt.
Who can count the thoughts of God? They are more than all the sands of the desert.
Like clay in the hand of the potter, we are shaped into vessels of divine will.
ALL: We come with praise for the wonderful works of God.
