* Call to Worship (Responsive) | Psalm 95 | |
L- Come, let us sing for joy to the LORD; let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation. P-Let us come before him with thanksgiving and extol him with music and song. L-For the LORD is the great God, the great King above all gods. P-In his hand are the depths of the earth, and the mountain peaks belong to him. L- The sea is his, for he made it, and his hands formed the dry land. All- Come, let us bow down in worship, let us kneel before the LORD our Maker; for he is our God and we are the people of his pasture, the flock under his care. Today, if only you would hear his voice. Amen |

Prayer of Confession (Unison) | ||
Lord, forgive us for those times in which we do not look inside of our hearts to look deeper to see those around us who may be in need- in even the smallest of ways. Lord lead us not into temptation, but deliver us-indeed deliver us! For your promises are steadfast and forgiveness everlasting. We need you, oh God, today and every day- now and forever. This we pray this in the name of your son- our savior, our Lord, Amen |

Assurance of Forgiveness | ||
Heavenly father, we praise you for your unconditional love and your forgiveness for us; for your persistence in following us when we as sheep have gone missing gone astray left alone or lost. We give thanks that we are never alone never without you. We know that you are above us, ahead of us, beside us, beneath us and most of all in our hearts where we can always find you. Inside our hearts where we will always find your comfort, your forgiveness, your grace and rest. We thank you for that promise -together as your people in Jesus |
