CALL TO CONFESSION
Leviticus 5:5 5when anyone becomes aware that they are guilty in any of these matters, they must confess in what way they have sinned. So, let us draw near to God with sincerity and confidence, and pray together.

Prayer of Confession: Glorious God, shine upon us with your Spirit of wisdom and truth. Enlighten our hearts. Help us to know the hope to which we are called. Reveal your ways, that we might share hope and joy in all that we do, and all that we say. In the light of Christ’s love, we pray. Amen.

Words of Assurance: There is immeasurable greatness in the power of God for those who believe. Trust in the Lord, for God’s grace is real. In the name of Jesus Christ, who is above all and in all, you are forgiven!

Doxology
Offertory Prayer: We offer these gifts to you: as food and drink for a hungry world; as clothing and shelter for those who are naked and homeless; as kindness and compassion for those who are most in need of mercy. Transform these gifts, that they might be your hands and feet in the world. Send us forth as your people, that all that we do, and all that we say, may
be a glorious representation of your presence in the world. With gratitude, we pray. Amen.
