Pastoral Prayer & The Lord’s Prayer Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, And forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors, And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.
Placing the Bible Prayer of Confession Forgive us, Lord, not only for the normal, everyday, ordinary sins that clutter our lives, but also for the ways we subtly deceive ourselves into thinking we are better than we really are. Forgive us for the ways we use our goodness to condemn others by comparison. Forgive us for harboring grudges and concealing them behind a falsely pleasant façade. Forgive us for judging others by appearances and not by right judgments. Teach us the kind of humility that knits us to all of humanity. If there is any wicked way in us, reveal it to us now as we offer our prayers of confession to you… Assurance of Forgiveness Congregational Response* All Creatures of Our God and King

Postlude
I hear the Savior say, “Thy strength indeed is small! Child of weakness, watch and pray, Find in Me thine all in all.” Jesus paid it all, All to Him I owe; Sin had left a crimson stain, He washed it white as snow. For nothing good have I Whereby Thy grace to claim. I’ll wash my garment white In the blood of Calv’ry’s lamb. And when before the throne I stand in Him complete, “Jesus died my soul to save,” My lips shall still repeat.
#100, v. 6
