Restore us, O God! – Lent 3
We welcome all to this place for the
worship of God and for Christian fellowship.
Let
us worship God in spirit and in truth, reaching out to one another in Christ’s
love.
We
welcome our guests and visitors and hope you will join us again soon.
We thirst.
Our bodies
know the desperate need for water: we cannot survive without it. Likewise, our deepest selves are parched and
yearn to be drenched in God’s love. God,
who is Love, quenches our thirst so that we can live into the fullness of life.
