Restless God, we know that you never rest in your love and concern for all of creation.
We know that you ceaselessly search us out,
calling us to be here together in prayer and song and word.
We know that you do not rest until justice rains down on the earth and until mercy flows like a river.
We are your people, your community, your family.
Today we open ourselves to your restless Spirit,
God of all creation we live in expectation of your work in our lives.
Amen

no matter where we are from,
no matter what we have done,

we gather together before you, as your children, knowing we are welcome.
Amen

Amen

Every preacher would love to have the kind of response to a sermon that Peter had on the Day of Pentecost. Three thousand people had their lives profoundly changed and were added to the Church. For most of them, it was a change that would make them a pariah in their communities, some, would go on to die for their faith.

God of resurrection and Ascension,
on Pentecost day you taught the hearts of your faithful people
by sending to them the light of your Holy Spirit.
Through the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, you revealed the way of eternal life to every race and nation.
Pour out this same gift anew to us we pray, that by the preaching of the Gospel
your salvation may reach to the ends of the earth;
through Jesus Christ our Lord, who promised this gift.
Amen

O God, the King of Glory, hear our prayer:
that as we believe your Son Jesus Christ to be exalted with great triumph to your kingdom in heaven;
so also we may know his presence with us now, and to the end of time;
who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, world without end.
Amen

God, gardener of Eden, who flung stars into space and nurtures the tiniest plant,
lift our hopes and dreams above the loss and damage of our suffering planet
that we might share your long-dreamed vision which values the pea as much as the plant,
fill us with your life-giving hope and inspire us with your creative Spirit now, and in the age to come.
Amen
