Order of Worship for Sunday, June 14th 2026

Prelude

Welcome

Call to Worship

Leader: We gather for worship out of many needs:
Congregation: a need for guidance, insight, tools for life…

Leader: What God provides in response may surprise us—
Congregation: inviting us simply to breathe, to gaze, to laugh, to embrace.

Leader: Such gifts are portals into health and freedom.
Congregation: Lord, lead us in the path of wholeness.
