World Communion Sunday
Centering Practice
We invite you to slow down, breathe, and connect with God, each other, and yourself. Begin by taking a couple of slow, deep breaths.
- Let’s continue our practice of butterfly tapping to calm our nervous system and bring us into the present moment
- Make a butterfly, close your eyes, and begin tapping your chest — slowly and gently, just a couple of times
Call to Worship
In sovereign love, God created the world good.
Each of us is made in the image of God.
We are being called to wholeness and holiness.
Let us love God, our neighbors, and ourselves
with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength.
Amen.
Worship Songs
All Who Are Thirsty
All who are thirsty
All who are weak
Come to the fountain
Dip your heart in the stream of life
Let the pain and the sorrow
Be washed away
In the waves of His mercy
As deep cries out to deep
Come, Lord Jesus, come
Come, Lord Jesus, come
Come, Lord Jesus, come
Holy Spirit come
Holy Spirit come
Holy Spirit come
Here I Am to Worship
Light of the world
You stepped down into darkness
Opened my eyes, let me see
Beauty that made
this heart adore You
Hope of a life spent with You
So here I am to worship
Here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that You’re my God
You’re altogether lovely
Altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me
King of all days
Oh so highly exalted
Glorious in heaven above
Humbly You came
to the earth You created
All for love’s sake became poor
I’ll never know how much it costs
To see my sin upon that cross
Prayer of Confession
God of mercy,
we turn our faces toward You;
Gather all of Your people in Your love.
For those who suffer and sorrow;
for a world longing for wholeness;
Hear us, O Lord, we pray:
— Moment of silent prayer —
By the power of Your Spirit,
make us advocates of Your justice
and instruments of Your peace.
Amen.

Worship Song
Gracefully Broken
Take all I have in these hands
And multiply, God, all that I am
And find my heart on the altar again
Set me on fire, set me on fire
Here I am, God
Arms wide open
Pouring out my life
Gracefully broken
My heart stands in awe of Your name
Your mighty love stands strong to the end
You will fulfill Your purpose in me
You won’t forsake me, You will be with me
All to Jesus now…
Holding nothing back…
I surrender…
Scripture Reading
Psalm 86:11-13
11 Teach me your way, O Lord,
that I may walk in your truth;
give me an undivided heart to revere your name.
12 I give thanks to you, O Lord my God, with my whole heart,
and I will glorify your name forever.
13 For great is your steadfast love toward me;
This is the Word of the Lord.
Together: Thanks be to God.

Center
You’re the center of the universe
Everything was made in You Jesus
Breath of every living thing
Everyone was made for You
You hold everything together
You hold everything together
O Christ, be the center of our lives
Be the place we fix our eyes
Be the center of our lives
We lift our eyes to heaven
We wrap our lives around Your life
We lift our eyes to heaven, to You
