PRAYER OF CONFESSION
Leader: God of mercy, You sent Jesus Christ to seek and to save the lost.
People: We confess that we have strayed from You and turned aside
from Your way.
Leader: We are misled by pride, for we see ourselves pure when we are
stained,
People: and great when we are small. We have failed in love,

Have mercy, O God, and forgive our sin. Return us to the path
of Righteousness through Jesus Christ, our Savior. Amen.
Time for Silent Reflection
DECLARATION OF PARDON
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. If anyone is in Christ, they become a new person altogether--the past is finished and gone,
everything has become fresh and new.
Friends: Believe the good news of the gospel. In Jesus Christ we are forgiven.
**PARDON RESPONSE #577
“Glory Be to the Father”
Glory be to the Father, and the Son and the Holy Ghost;
As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
**PASSING THE PEACE
The peace of Christ be with you.
And also with you.
**CONGREGATIONAL RESPONSE
He is Lord, He is Lord! He is risen from the dead and He is Lord.
Ev’ry knee shall bow, ev’ry tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.

RESPONDING TO THE WORD
**AFFIRMATION OF FAITH
The Apostles’ Creed
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 the saints; the forgiveness of sins; the resurrection of the body; and the life everlasting.
Amen.
