Offering Invitation
Lead us not into temptation,
but toward your will.
Lead us not into temptation,
but to the sharing of our gifts.
Lead us not into temptation,
but to love through actions and through how we spend our money and talents.
We will now take up our morning offering.
Prayer of Dedication
We promise to use these gifts for good.
We promise to use these gifts in furthering God ’s realm.
We commit to using these gifts in love and mercy for others.
Amen.
