PRELUDE

CALL TO WORSHIP

Make a joyful noise to God, all the earth; sing the glory of God’s name. How awesome are your deeds, O God!We sing praises to your name. Come and see what God has done: turning the sea into dry land; bringing us across the river Jordan.How awesome are your deeds, O God!We sing praises to your name. Even when God has tested us; even when we have gone through fire and water:God has brought us out to a spacious place.Our God is an awesome God!

HYMN #711 “ Lord of All Good ”

CALL TO CONFESSION

Even when we are faithless, Christ remains faithful.Trusting in grace, let us confess our sins.

PRAYER OF CONFESSION

Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.

We keep our distance from you,for we are broken and sick with sin.Yet you see us, and cleanse us, and make us whole.Forgive us when we forget to return to you—have mercy when we fail to praise your name,and help us to exude the faith that makes us well.

[continue in silence, personal confession…]

DECLARATION OF FORGIVENESS

Hear the good news! Who is in a position to condemn?Only Christ, and Christ died for us, Christ rose for us, Christ reigns in power for us, Christ prays for us. Anyone who is in Christ is a new creation.The old life has gone; a new life has begun.Know that we are forgiven and be at peace. Amen.
