Introduction
Prayer of the Day
God of heaven and earth, before the foundation of the universe and the beginning of time you are the triune God: Author of creation, eternal Word of salvation, life-giving Spirit of wisdom. Guide us to all truth by your Spirit, that we may proclaim all that Christ has revealed and rejoice in the glory he shares with us. Glory and praise to you, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, now and forever. Amen.
Scripture
Proverbs 8:1-4, 22-31 Wisdom rejoices in the creation
In the Bible, wisdom is portrayed in terms sometimes human and sometimes divine. Often, wisdom is personified as feminine. In this passage, Woman Wisdom is depicted not only as the first creation of God, but also as God’s helper, rejoicing in God’s creation, especially in human beings.
Psalm 8 Your glory is chanted above the heavens. (Ps. 8:2)
Romans 5:1-5 God’s love poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit
Paul describes the life of faith with reference to God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. Even now, we have peace with God through Jesus, and our hope for the future is grounded in the love of God that we experience through Christ’s Holy Spirit.
John 16:12-15 The Spirit will guide you into the truth
Jesus’ ongoing presence with the disciples will be made known through the coming Spirit who will guide them and communicate to them Jesus’ will and glory.
Fellowship Time
You are invited to stay after worship for refreshments and fellowship time in the gathering space.
Theme Write-up

**Led by the Holy Spirit, our faith is renewed**
In the season of Pentecost, we remember how the Holy Spirit descended upon the early church with power and purpose, breathing new life into followers of Christ. This divine presence continues to move among us today, igniting hearts, inspiring witness, and deepening faith. As we enter the first part of this season, we are reminded that the Spirit is not a distant force but an active guide—calling, shaping, and empowering us in our daily walk with God. The Spirit leads us beyond comfort and routine into a vibrant, living faith that is continually made new through grace.
Being led by the Holy Spirit means learning to listen, trust, and respond with openness. As we gather in worship, we open ourselves to transformation—to be renewed in courage, hope, and love. Through scripture, song, and sacrament, we experience the Spirit stirring within us, reconnecting us to God’s promises and equipping us to serve with compassion in the world. In this Pentecost season, may we welcome the Spirit’s renewing presence and follow where it leads, confident that God is at work in and through us.
