Litany for 19 June 2011


First Sunday after Pentecost   19 June 2011
Call to Celebration:
L: O LORD, our Sovereign, how majestic is your name in all the earth!
P: When we look at your heavens, the work of your fingers,
L: The moon and the stars that you have established,
P: We wonder, what are human beings that you are mindful of us, that you care for us?
L: You have given us dominion over the works of your hands;
P: All sheep and oxen, and also the beasts of the field,
L: The birds of the air, and the fish of the sea,
ALL: May we truly embrace our role as beings created by you in your image.
            from Psalm 8 and Genesis 1:27
