Lent Call to Worship: Covenant

Here’s a responsive call to worship based on the scripture texts for Lent, Year B.  It comes from the Seekers Church.

Call to Worship for Lent: Sign of the Covenant

Leader:      In the days of Noah,
                  God placed a rainbow in the sky
                  as the sign of a covenant of God's love for all the earth.

People:      In the colors of the rainbow,
                  we see the sign of God's grace for all creation.

Leader:      In the days of Moses,
                  the words of God were written on tablets of stone,
                  as the sign of a covenant
                  between God and all of God's people.

People:      In the tablets of stone,
                  we see the sign of God's hope
                  for each to live in peace with God and neighbor.

Leader:      In the days of the prophet,
                  God promised to place a new covenant in our hearts.

All:             As members of the living Body of Christ,
                  we see the sign of God's promise among us.
