RESPONSIVE READING
Leader:   God in the Spirit revealed in Jesus Christ calls us by grace
People:   to be renewed in the image of our Creator, that we may be one in divine Love for the world.
Leader:   Today is the day God cares for the integrity of creation, wills the healing and wholeness of all life, weeps at the plunder of earth’s goodness.
People:   And so shall we.
Leader:   Today is the day God embraces all hues of humanity, delights in diversity and difference, favors solidarity transforming strangers into friends.
People:   And so shall we.
Leader:   Today is the day God cries with the masses of starving people, despises growing disparity between rich and poor, demands justice for workers in the market place.
People:   And so shall we.
Leader:   Today is the day God deplores the violence in our homes and streets, rebukes the world’s warring madness, humbles the powerful and lifts up the lowly.
People:   And so shall we.
Leader:   Today is the day God calls for nations and peoples to live in peace, celebrates where justice and mercy embrace, exults when the wolf grazes with the lamb.
People:   Today is the day God brings good news to the poor, proclaims release to the captives, gives sight to the blind, and sets the oppressed free.
ALL:   And so shall we.
