Gathering to Worship

Prelude

Welcome

Call to Worship

Leader: This is the day that Jesus the Messiah, the Lamb of

God, gave himself into the hands of those who would slay him.

People: This is the day that Jesus gathered with his

disciples in the upper room.

Leader: This is the day that Jesus took a towel and washed the

disciples’ feet, giving us an example that we should do to others

as he has done to us.

People: This is the day that Christ our God gave us the holy

feast, that we who eat this bread and drink this cup may

here proclaim his holy sacrifice, and be partakers of his

resurrection, and at the last day may reign with him in

heaven.
