Opening Prayer

Prayer of Confession

L = Service Leader, C = Congregation

Let us pray.

Almighty God, to whom all hearts are open, all desires known, and from whom no secrets are hid: Cleanse the thoughts of our hearts by the inspiration of your holy spirit, that we may perfectly love you and worthily magnify your holy name, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Amen.

If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

But if we confess our sins, God, who is faithful and just, will forgive our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

Let us then confess our sins to God our Father.

We confess to you, Holy God, that we have sinned in thought, word, and deed. For the sake of Your Son, Jesus Christ, have mercy on us and forgive us our sins.

In the mercy of almighty God, Jesus Christ died for your sins, and through him your sins are forgiven.

Amen.

Creed

congregation stands

I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth.

I believe in Jesus Christ, God's only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried; he descended to the dead. On the third day he rose again; he ascended into heaven, he is seated at the right hand of the Father, and he will come again to judge the living and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Christian church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.

Praying for One Another

The Lord’s Prayer

      Our Father in heaven,
      hallowed be Your name,
      Your kingdom come,
      Your will be done,
      on earth as in heaven.
      Give us today our daily bread.
      Forgive us our sins,
      as we forgive those who sin against us.
      Lead us not into temptation,
      but deliver us from evil.
      For the kingdom,
      the power, and the glory are Yours,
      now and forever. Amen.
    

Sending

Benediction Song

      The Lord lift you up,
      the Lord take your hand,
      the Lord lead you forth
      and cause you to stand
      secure in God’s Word,
      seeking God’s face,
      abounding in love,
      abiding in grace.
