Litany for First Sunday in Lent Year C

Call to Worship for 2016-02-14

One: God, we are tempted by so many things!

All: Sometimes we are hungry, and are tempted to satisfy that hunger in unhealthy ways.

One: Sometimes we are afraid, and are tempted to use our power in unfair ways.

All: Sometimes we want so much to be loved and cared for, that we test our relationships in trying or hurtful ways just to be sure we are still loved.

One: Jesus, too, went into the wilderness and was tempted repeatedly. Each time, he worked hard to push the temptations aside.

All: Let us also turn from our temptations and seek God.

            from Luke 4:1-13
