Prayers of Invocation on The Trinity

Glory be to You, O Father everlasting, who did send your only-begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him. Glory be to you, O Lord Jesus Christ, who has brought life and immortality to light through the Gospel. Glory be to you, O Holy Spirit, who does enliven us together with Christ, and does shed abroad His love in our hearts. Blessed be to you, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, one God; and blessed be your glorious name for ever. Amen

God has come into the presence of humanity

God, who spoke the world into being, has revealed himself to us

In part through His creation

In part through His prophets and the story of His people Israel

And in full through the life, death, and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ

God has come into the presence of humanity

And we find ourselves here, as everywhere, in the presence of God

So we come to praise our God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit

Jacob Traeger

Lord of lords, we praise You today for You have sought to know us, claim us, and even love us. You are the God of relationships, and You seek one with us. As You relate to Yourself in Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, you perfectly model intimacy for us. Through Your presence today, help us to better understand Your everlasting love. Amen. 

Austin D. Hill

Triune God, we praise You today for sending Your Spirit who bears witness of all Christ has done for us. We no longer have to find You in one place because You have come to us. Through Your Holy Spirit, You never leave us nor forsake us. You are here with us now, and for that we give You thanks. Amen. 

Austin D. Hill

Lord God, you are one. Three persons, one God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. In your triune nature, we learn that you are a God of relationship and you desire to know us deeply. Draw us closer to you through our time in worship this morning.  Amen.
