PRELUDE
*PROCESSIONAL “Glory, Glory Hallelujah” (SZ 98)
O God of glory, you bless the poor in spirit with the richness of your eternal favor. You choose the meek to inherit the earth. You comfort those who mourn; the hungry and thirsty you satisfy. The pure in heart catch sight of your splendor, and those who make peace you call your own. We join with the merciful, who throughout the ages have lived by your graciousness and worshiped your name. Amen.
*CALL TO WORSHIP
Leader: The law of the Lord is perfect, reviving the soul.
People: The decrees of the Lord are sure, making wise the simple.
Leader: The precepts of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart.
People: The commandment of the Lord is clear, enlightening the eyes.
Leader: The fear of the Lord is pure, enduring forever.
People: The ordinances of the Lord are true and righteous altogether.
ALL: Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable to you, O Lord, our rock and our redeemer.

INVOCATION Elder Shelly Sands
THE LORD’S PRAYER
CALL TO CONFESSION
PRAYER OF CONFESSION: (Unison)
God of justice and righteousness, have mercy upon us as we confess our sin. We say we love our neighbors, but we still make distinctions. We favor the rich and discount the poor. We say we have faith, but our works do not show it; we preach Jesus Christ while we send the hungry away. While our lips praise you, our hands cast off strangers. We are not worthy to ask your forgiveness except for the name of Christ, who pardoned the thief on the cross and forgave those who put him to death.
ASSURANCE OF PARDON: Remember the words of Scripture, where it says, “Since we have confidence to enter the sanctuary by the blood of
Jesus…and since we have a great priest over the house of God, let us approach with a true heart in full assurance of faith, with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water” (Heb. 10:19, 21-22).
In Jesus Christ we are forgiven!
