GATHERING AND GREETING

+OPENING MUSIC
OPENING PRAYER
Almighty God, we come to you with our hopes and fears, with our longings and
desires to know you more fully. We pray that through this Lenten journey you
will be known to us as we experience the stories of Jesus. As we move with you
through this season, open our hearts and minds to you. Help us to receive your
abundant gifts through Christ. Rescue us from our wilderness and wandering
places so that we may know your grace, love and forgiveness in the depths of
our souls. Transform our lives through the power of your Holy Spirit, so as we
are restored in and through Christ, we may follow his path. Amen.

The Word Proclaimed - Mark 4:35-41(NRSV)

On that day, when evening had come, he said to them, Let us go across to the other
side. And leaving the crowd behind, they took him with them in the boat, just as he
was. Other boats were with him. A great windstorm arose, and the waves beat into
the boat, so that the boat was already being swamped. But he was in the stern, asleep
on the cushion; and they woke him up and said to him, Teacher, do you not care that
we are perishing? He woke up and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, Peace! Be
still! Then the wind ceased, and there was a dead calm. He said to them, Why are
you afraid? Have you still no faith? And they were filled with great awe and said to
one another, Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?
