WORSHIPFUL TIME AT HOME (find these ideas expanded from Prince of Peace Lutheran in Gaithersburg)

♦ Gather your family or neighbors. If you live alone, write down names of people you miss from church or elsewhere. Remember that you aren’t alone as the people of God gather for worship wherever we are.
♦ Light a candle and say to those around you: The Lord be with you (and also with you).
♦ Say a prayer, read from the Bible, and take some time to reflect. Ask yourself, what would it be like to be there? How is God speaking to you through this passage?
♦ Say the Apostles Creed, pray the prayers of the church, pray the Lord’s Prayer, sing or speak the lyrics of familiar hymn or song.
♦ Finish by making the sign of the cross on your forehead and remind yourself: Go in peace, serve the Lord. Thanks be to God!
