Call to Worship
Sharon Caladino, Liturgist
Leader: Come, all who long to walk in the light — not the light of our own making, but the steady light of truth.
ALL: We come, bringing ourselves as we are.
Leader: Come, all who have known the cost of integrity and chosen it anyway — and those still learning what it means.
ALL: We come, willing to be formed.
Leader: Let us worship the One who is faithful — whose word holds, whose love does not waver, whose character is our foundation.
ALL: We come — to hear, to trust, to follow.
Song of Praise
“I Surrender All” - Wheeler, DeVenter, Weeden
St. Thomas Music Team
Invocation
Leader (ONLY): Let us walk as those who mean what we say and say what we mean — whose yes is yes, whose presence is whole. May we be people of the long road, not swayed by what is easy or applauded, but held by what is true. Grant us the courage to act rightly when no one is watching, and the grace to remain faithful when the path grows difficult. May our lives be a single, unbroken thread — what we believe, what we speak, what we do, made one. We enter into worship not in our own strength but carried by a faithfulness greater than our own. So may it be this morning God has created for us. Amen.

Prayer of Dedication
ALL: May our offerings be an expression of genuine love that reflects your love for us, O God. We seek to honor you as we serve one another in Christ’s name. We reach out to overcome evil with good, direct our use of the resources you entrust to us that we may not only contribute to the needs of the saints but also devote our lives to the building of a peaceable worldwide community in which all are valued. Amen.

Benediction
Pastor: Christ is with me, Christ before me, Christ behind me, Christ in me, Christ beneath me, Christ above me, Christ on my right, Christ on my left, Christ where I lie, Christ when I sit, Christ where I arise, Christ in the heart of everyone who thinks of me, Christ in the mouth of every one who speaks of me, Christ in every eye that sees me, Christ in every ear that hears me. Grace is of the Lord.
People: Grace is of the Lord
Pastor: Grace is of God and Spirit.
ALL: May your grace, Lord, be ever with us. Amen.
