I'm struck with the excellence of worship in each service. Led by both Iona community staff and volunteers, it is obvious that each person is intentional about preparation and presentation.
In the The Iona Worship Book we use are these words: "We will not offer to God offerings that cost us nothing."
I believe leading worship whether it be by clergy or laity, is an offering to God. And if we do not prepare, it feels like an offering without cost.
I take home with me a renewed commitment for those times I am called to participate in worship, to give to God an offering of my time to prepare and to serve.
