Calling the Other Sheep - Poem by Raymond A. Foss

His life, his charge
to go to the world
called to find other sheep
to share the message
the love of our God
going to the ends of the earth

So we are called
in our time and place
to continue the work of the Lord
to seek open hearts
for the message of God
his love so deep
his grace for you and me

Not bound by the law
the ancient code
freed from sin and death
our price already paid
by Christ on the cross
his hand offered to those who believe
only to follow to be saved

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”
