Tri-City Sunday Gathering Liturgy - February 22, 2026
Pause to reflect on the readings, prayers, and songs we share in together as the body of Christ at Sunday morning worship Gatherings.
CALL TO WORSHIP
Leader: And so are we gathered here,
uniquely in all of history, we particular people
in this singular time and place.
Congregation: Accomplish your purposes among us, O God.
Leader: Tune our hearts to the voice of your Spirit.
Congregation: Wake us to be present to you and to one another
in this shared time we’ve been given.
Leader: For it is you, O Lord, who have so
gathered us from our various places,
Congregation: And you alone who know our hearts and our needs.
Leader: Among us are some who arrive anxious, some
who are lonely, some who suffer pain or sorrow.
Congregation: May we in our joys find grace to enter the
sorrows of others.
Leader: Among us are some who arrive rejoicing,
hearts made light by good news,
good health, and glad anticipation.
Congregation: May we in our sorrows
find grace to embrace the joys of others.
Leader: Let us prize these moments and care for one
another deeply—for each of us, and our
relationships to one another, are precious and
fleeting.
Congregation: Breathe upon our gathering, Spirit of God
Leader: Grant each of us, a place to humbly
receive and to faithfully serve that we might
know in this brief gathering a foretaste of that
greater communion yet to come
Congregation: Oh Father, enlarge our hearts
Oh Spirit, expand our vision
Oh Christ, establish your kingdom among us.
Leader: Be at work even now oh Lord,
may your will in us in these hours be accomplished
Congregation: Amen

CONFESSION
Leader: Search me, O God, and know my heart!
Try me and know my thoughts!
And see if there be any grievous way in me,
and lead me in the way everlasting
Congregation: Dust returns to dust,
Everything we have put our trust in, apart from You,
Has been revealed as meaningless vapor.
Search us, O God, and fix our eyes on Jesus.
Psalms 139:23-24
Try me and know my thoughts!

and lead me in the way everlasting

Has been revealed as meaningless vapor.

Psalms 139:23-24
BENEDICTION
Leader: May the aroma of Christ be upon you as you go from this place. May His grace and forgiveness infiltrate every aspect of your life this week, as you love those God places in our path.
Congregation: And also with you!
Congregation: And also with you!
