Call to Worship and Prayer

Assign one leader, or let a different family member say each line. Add your own prayers to each line.
​God, give us a moment to stop and pray, to stop and worship… (silence)
God, we ask you to be with our family and friends, especially…
God, we thank you for…
God, guide our actions, guide our hearts and guide our minds this day. Amen.

Message

Discussion Questions 

Who do we find it hard to love that we know God is already loving?
What neighbor do you have a conflict with (or maybe a conflict only you know about) that you might need to develop a relationship with? 
Have you learned more of your neighbors names?

Benediction

Either have one person lead, or everyone say together. Remember this is a blessing, look each other in the eye. 
The Lord bless you and protect you.
The Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you.
The Lord lift up his face to you and grant you peace.
