CALL TO WORSHIP: 1 Chronicles 16:23-27

MUSIC:  Christ Be Magnified, God So Loved

PRAYER: Prayer: The Peace Prayer (by St. Francis of Assisi)

ALL: Lord, make us an instrument of Thy peace; Where there is hatred, let me sow love; Where there is injury, pardon; Where there is error, truth; Where there is doubt, faith; Where there is despair, hope; Where there is darkness, light; And where there is sadness, joy. O Divine Master, Grant that we may not so much seek To be consoled, as to console; To be understood, as to understand; To withhold, as to forgive To be loved as to love. For it is in giving that we receive; It is in pardoning that we are pardoned And it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. Amen. 

MESSAGE TITLE:  Ambassadors

CENTRAL TEXT: 2 Corinthians 5:18-21

18 All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave us the ministry of reconciliation; 19 that is, in Christ God was reconciling[fn] the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation. 20 Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us. We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. 21 For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.
