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
