Short North Sunday Gathering Liturgy - April 5, 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: Hallelujah! Christ is risen!

CongregationHe is risen indeed! Hallelujah!

Leader: This is the good news—the grave is empty.
Hallelujah! Christ is risen!

Hallelujah! Christ is risen!

CongregationHe is risen indeed! Hallelujah!

Leader: This is the good news—Christ has risen from the grave and given us the promise and hope of resurrection, so that we might also rise with Him in new life everlasting. Hallelujah! Christ is risen!

CongregationHe is risen indeed! Hallelujah!

COMMITMENT

CongregationWe give You thanks, great God, for the hope we have in Jesus, who died but is risen and rules over all. We praise You for His presence with us. Because He lives, we look for eternal life, knowing that nothing past, present, or yet to come can separate us from Your great love made known in Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.

— A prayer from the Common Book of Worship

BENEDICTION

Leader: Go now with hearts full of joy, for Christ is risen—just as He said.
Like the women at the tomb, may we run with reverent awe to share the good news: Jesus is alive!

May the risen Lord go before us, filling us with courage, peace, and resurrection hope, and may His presence be our constant joy, now and forevermore.

Leader: Hallelujah! Christ is risen!

CongregationHe is risen indeed! Hallelujah!

CongregationAnd also with you!
