Call to Worship, Lent 4C

​​You who have long lived
in the legacy of disgrace ...
you are welcome here.
You who have felt the humiliation
of being treated as less than,
as objects rather than as humans,
of being used as a means to an end ...
you are welcome here.
God who frees us from slavery
to abuse of power
and to our own fears
calls to you in love.
Come into this circle of healing
and hope,
and worship.
