God whispers in our hearts, “Do not be afraid.” All things will be made new. All things will begin again. Hold on to the new life in Christ, and know that love and life are yours, now and always. Go share the good news of Christ’s resurrection. Amen.

*Call to Worship                                                   Dr. Richard Green 

            L: So we do not lose heart.

            C: Even though our outer nature is wasting away,

            Our inner nature is being renewed day by day. 

           L: For this slight momentary affliction is preparing us

           For an eternal weight of glory beyond all measure,

            C: Because we look at not what can be seen, but at what cannot be seen. 

            L: For what can be seen is temporary,

            C: But what cannot be seen is eternal.
