Enter!

A Call to Worship/or a poem of invitation/or whatever...

Enter!
Chalon sur Saone port de l'eglise
Come! Enter with me!
Open the windows,
Tear open the shutters, push the cobwebs away,
Let the breeze, the wind, the air fill this place.
Enter! Open the doors, break open the locks, don’t be afraid
Let the doubt and certainties, let the fears and failings get swept away,
Let the rhythm of songs, let the refrain of praise lead the way.

Come! Enter with me!
Come men and women, girls and boys,
Come neighbors and shop keepers, come vacationers and strangers,
Let the refrain of summer,
the sun, the sea, the sounds of birds
open our eyes, fill our nostrils, and unplug our ears.
Let the whole world find the way to enter here!

Come! Enter with me!
Let the sounds, the rhythms, the refrain of life’s love
-the God who sets us free-
Ring true for you and me.

Come! Enter with me!
The place is clear, the space is safe, the sound is sacred.
Let the refrain of worship,
glory and honor, prayers and wonder,
be from the beginning and forever
our way of life to be.

Come! Enter with me!
