LORD'S / OUR FATHER PRAYER
(in the version or language as you know)

Our God/Father, Who art in heaven,
Hallowed be Thy Name.
Thy Kingdom come.
Thy Will be done,
on earth as it is in Heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.

For thine is the kingdom,
and the power,
and the glory, for ever. Amen.

Could you host a Sunday this summer? β˜€οΈ

Every Sunday after worship, someone in our congregation opens up a little space β€” cheese and crackers, fruit, cookies, lemonade β€” and the conversations that happen are some of the best we have all week.

This summer we're inviting people who don't normally host to give it a try. Simple food, open door, instant community. Sign up in the narthex or contact the church office.
