WELCOME ONE ANOTHER 

* CALL TO WORSHIP  
We gather today as people who have received the grace and love of God. 
We come with grateful hearts, ready to receive and ready to respond. 

God’s grace meets us where we are and calls us toward who we are becoming. 
By grace, God changes our hearts and shapes our lives. 

God’s love is not meant to remain hidden within us. 

It calls us to love our neighbors, serve one another, and care for those around us. 

Let us worship the God whose grace transforms us, whose love sends us, and whose Spirit empowers us. 

We are here to worship, to be renewed, and to put our faith into action.

PRAYER  
Gracious God, we give thanks for your grace and for the love you have shown us. Thank you for meeting us where we are, for accepting us as we are, and for continuing to work in our lives. Stir in us today a faith that cannot sit still. Remind us that faith is more than something we believe—it is something we must put into action. Teach us to show our faith through the love we share, the ways we serve, and the care we offer to one another. Send us from this place ready to carry your love beyond these doors and into the ordinary moments and places of this week. Amen.

THE LORD’S PRAYER  
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory forever. Amen.

SCRIPTURE  
James 2:14–26 | New Revised Standard Version, updated edition 
14 What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but does not have works? Surely that faith cannot save, can it? 15 If a brother or sister is naked and lacks daily food 16 and one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and eat your fill,” and yet you do not supply their bodily needs, what is the good of that? 17 So faith by itself, if it has no works, is dead. 

18 But someone will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faith apart from works, and I by my works will show you faith. 19 You believe that God is one; you do well. Even the demons believe—and shudder. 20 Do you want to be shown, you senseless person, that faith apart from works is worthless? 21 Was not our ancestor Abraham justified by works when he offered his son Isaac on the altar? 22 You see that faith was active along with his works, and by works faith was brought to completion. 23 Thus the scripture was fulfilled that says, “Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness,” and he was called the friend of God. 24 You see that a person is justified by works and not by faith alone. 25 Likewise, was not Rahab the prostitute also justified by works when she welcomed the messengers and sent them out by another road? 26 For just as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is also dead. 

These are the words of God for us, the people of God. Thanks be to God
