11. Hymn
As we prepare to go out on God’s mission into the world, we
often sing a hymn that reflects something of the challenge to us that has come
from hearing the word or call of God in our lives and to our community. This
hymn or song is often a rousing stirring one that encourages us to live
intentionally in response to the grace of God expressed in and through the life
of Jesus Christ.
* 12. Blessing/Dismissal
The people are blessed and reminded of their part in God’s
mission in the world by recalling a theme or idea from the hearing of the word
of God. Everyone is then dismissed from the gathered community to live and be
the people of God in the world.
