*CALL TO WORSHIP Psalm 66: 16-20 (NRSV)
Leader: Come and hear, all you who fear God,
and I
will tell what God has done for me.
I cried aloud
to him, and he was extolled with my tongue.
If I had cherished iniquity in my heart,
the Lord would not have listened.
People:
But truly God has listened;
he has given heed to the words of my
prayer.
Blessed be God, because he has not rejected
my prayer
or removed his steadfast love from me.
