*Prayer of Confession
God of grace, love, and communion,
we confess that we have failed to love you
with all our heart, soul, and mind;
and to love our neighbor as ourselves.
We ignore your commandments,
stray from your way, and follow other gods.
Have mercy on us.
Forgive our sin and raise us to new life
that we may serve you faithfully
and give honor to your holy name.
Silence is kept.

The reader offers a
phrase to mark the end
of each reading, such as,
The Word of the Lord, or
Holy Wisdom, Holy Word.
The assembly responds,
Thanks be to God.
The hymn sung
immediately before the
reading of the Gospel is
called the Gradual, or
Gradual Hymn, which
refers to the step
(Latin gradus) from which
it was chanted in
medieval church practice.
After the reading of the
Gospel the reader says,
The Gospel of the Lord.
The assembly responds,
Praise be to you, O
Christ.
Sermon
*Affirmation of Faith: The Apostles’ Creed Hymnal, Page 35 (front)
I believe in God, the Father almighty,
Maker of heaven and earth,
and in Jesus Christ his only Son, our Lord;
who was conceived by the Holy Ghost,
born of the Virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, dead, and buried;
he descended into hell;
the third day he rose again from the dead;
he ascended into heaven,
and sitteth on the right hand
of God the Father Almighty;
from thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Ghost;
the holy catholic church;
the communion of saints;
the forgiveness of sins;
the resurrection of the body;
and the life everlasting. Amen. Announcements

*Prayer of Thanksgiving
The Lord be with you.
And also with you.
Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
It is right to give our thanks and praise . . .
*The Lord’s Prayer Hymnal, p. 35 (front)
Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name,
thy kingdom come,
thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread;
and forgive us our debts,
as we forgive our debtors;
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom, and the power,
and the glory, forever. Amen.
Various forms of the
Apostles’ Creed were
used from the second
century onward.
Eucharist means
“Thanksgiving.”
The Prayer of
Thanksgiving begins
with an exchange
between the minister and
people, called the Sursum
Corda, meaning “hearts
lifted.” This dialogue
dates to the 3rd century
or earlier.
