Who do you say I am?
El Roi

 GATHERING AS GOD’S PEOPLE
Welcome
Greeting Your Neighbor
Call to Worship
Reflecting on Praying the Hours (last week’s prayer practice):
     Did you try this practice beyond last Sunday morning? 
          If so, how did it go?  If not, why not?
     As you prayed this way, did God seem closer or farther than usual?
     Did this way of praying bring out an aspect of God, yourself, or the world that 
          you sometimes miss?
     Do you think you’d like to pray this way more often?
     Would you recommend this prayer practice to a friend?
