2.22.26 - West Sunday Gathering Liturgy

West Sunday Gathering Liturgy - February 22,
 2026

Carry Sunday with you into your week by pausing to reflect on the readings, prayers, and songs we shared in together as the body of Christ.

CALL TO WORSHIP

Leader: Let us join our voices to praise the Lamb, Jesus Christ, who has redeemed us from sin and death.

Congregation: We, whom he has redeemed, will sing praises and shout for joy this hour, because in Christ the Lamb we have redemption through his blood. Worthy is the Lamb to receive power and wisdom and glory and praise!

CONFESSION/ASSURANCE

Leader: God, we are called to be an example of your love to each other and to the world around us, but so often we misrepresent you to a watching world.

Congregation: Forgive us for the ways we don't bear your name and reflect your glory. Thank you that in your mercy you call us the fragrance of Christ to our brothers and sisters and to those who don't yet believe. Help us to be an aroma of life leading to life. 

COMMITMENT

Leader: God, our heavenly Father, you've given us the privilege to be called to share in the loving, healing, and reconciling mission of your Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord.

Congregation: Since without you we can do nothing, may your Spirit make us wise; may your Spirit guide us, may your Spirit renew us, may your Spirit strengthen us, so that we may be an acceptable sacrifice to you, and the aroma of life to those around us.

BENEDICTION

Leader: May Jesus, who received the Spirit and manifested the Father, abide in you and make you an aroma of his life. May he empower you to live a life worthy of your calling. Peace be with you!

Congregation: And also with you!
