*THE INVOCATION AND LORDS PRAYER (In Unison)

Source of all we need, we gather to celebrate the loaves and fishes you provide. We open our ears and eagerly await your words, just as the five chased after Jesus to hear and be healed. We wait in wonder, knowing your presence is with us as we worship you this day. We pray as Jesus taught us to pray for your kingdom saying, 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 debts as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: for Thine is the Kingdom and the power, and the glory forever. Amen.
