Through Paul and his ministry
through his words and his letters
we see the way of life
picking up our own cross
Putting on the mantle
the yoke of our savior
sent as his messengers
sharing the love of God
Paul was the witness
the one to bring the message
to the world, the others
the ones not of the faith
Starting with love
the incarnate of God
caring for all people
becoming the sacrifice
The love of God revealed
not studied or learned
believing without seeing
trusting the holy word
Christ is the Good News
the revelation of God
this is what we preach today
in how we follow him
Each of us charged like Paul
to go and do the work
sharing the message of God
his love to save the earth

Psalm 146:1-5 (Call to Worship)
Prayer of Dedication:
“Abundant God, we thank you for the jars of our lives
that are constantly being filled. We offer our gifts to you,
that others may know of your abundance and grace.
Fill the hungry with good things. Lift up the oppressed.
Watch over the stranger and comfort the lonely.
Through our gifts, may we do likewise.
In the name of Christ the Comforter, we pray. Amen”
