Easter 6 Resource

The Church of the Nativity is conducting a debt reduction drive and is temporarily straying from the lectionary. However, here is a Call to Worship based on Revelation 21:22-22:5. Please use or adapt it if it is helpful to you.

Call to Worship   From Revelation 21:22-22:5

L: Friends, in the season of Easter, let us recall John’s vision of the heavenly city.

P: No temple is in the city, for its temple is God Almighty and the Lamb.

L: No sun or moon needs shine. God’s glory is its light. The Lamb is its lamp.

P: The nations walk in its light. Earth’s kings bring their glory.

L: The gates are always open by day – and there is no night.

P: Nothing is the city is false. Everything honors God!

L: Bright as crystal, the river of life flows from the throne of God and of the Lamb.

P: It flows through city center, the tree of life on either side.

L: The tree produces 12 kinds of fruit – one each month. Its leaves heal the nations.

P: God’s servants worship God face to face. God’s name is on their foreheads.

All: God Almighty is their light. They reign forever and ever.
