Our worship today challenges us to look around us, to see what God may be calling us to do to make a difference in the world, no matter who we are and where we are. This same question is one guiding DisciplesNet Church is prayerful worship these next five weeks as we chart the course for our ministry in the upcoming year. As we do this, we are taking a look inside at how God calls us to give of our own gifts and resources-- how we work to be faithful to use these gifts in mission that God is calling us to do. And we invite you to join in, considering your own place and circumstances. We invite you to give of your gifts through DisciplesNet Church, or another ministry that God may be calling you to work through. Our text today is one that is part of the core of DisciplesNet's mission: Matthew 25:31-40.
Worship today is about 26 minutes, a time of worshipping God together through song, prayers, scripture, and considering God's word together. As you worship with us, keep in mind that our 'pews' are very big: you will be worshipping with people in times and places all around the world. We like to think that although most of us can't see each other here, God sees our DisciplesNet Church gathered, perfectly well, and is in our midst.

As we do every week, our time together includes a time of communion (breaking of the bread) where you may choose to participate, or simply meditate as we tell of Jesus' invitation to "do this in remembrance of me."
If you would like to share with us at the table that goes beyond all earthly boundaries of time, place, and structure, we ask that you prepare a piece of bread of some type and a drink, such as grape juice, wine, or water. As we pray, our prayers are given to extend to where you are If you are unable to eat or drink, you may want to use a symbolic gesture or mental symbol as you come together at this table of remembrance with us. (Scroll down for an Order of Worship)

We hope that as you join us for worship you will feel a blessing from beige part. Please tell friends, family, and others you know about our online church that is here with doors that are always open, walls as wide as the world, and always room at the table.
