“We Know That Christ Is Raised”
ENGELBERG
Prayer of Confession
Merciful God, in baptism you promise forgiveness and new life,
making us part of the body of Christ. We confess that we remain
preoccupied with ourselves, separated from sisters and brothers in
Christ. We cling to destructive habits, hold grudges, and show
reluctance to welcome one another. We allow the past to hold us
hostage. In your loving kindness, have mercy on us and free us from
sin. Remind us of the promises you make in baptism so that we may rise
to new life, and live together in grace; through Jesus Christ, our risen
Savior. Amen.
