Call to Confession:
Liturgist: Christ our Lord invites to his table all who love him, who earnestly repent of their sin and seek to live in peace with one another. Therefore, let us confess our sins before God and one another.
Prayer of Confession:
Congregation: Merciful God, you have called us to seek first your kingdom and your righteousness, but we often do not reflect your presence in our lives. Forgive us, we pray, and turn us back to you. In your mercy, renew us and bring us to life, through Jesus Christ.
Assurance of Pardon:
Liturgist: In the name of Jesus Christ you are forgiven!
Congregation: In the name of Jesus Christ you are forgiven.
All: Glory to God. Amen
