Prayer of Confession:
People: O Lord, you taught us to love you and our neighbor, but we have not lived in right relationship. We have not walked in the light of your love. We need Your wisdom to show us the path of truth and life, for we are lost without You. Search us, O God, and know our hearts. Forgive us for the wrongs we have done. We trust in your gift of forgiveness. In the name of Christ we pray, Amen.

Leader: Be at peace, for you have been freed from sin that you may serve with righteousness. I declare to you, in the name of Jesus Christ you are forgiven!

All: Glory to God. Amen.
