*Prayer Of Confession |

Holy One, we come before you with contrite hearts. You know
what we’ve done and left undone. You know who we’ve betrayed and excluded.
Yet you love us still. We do not mean to hurt or cause harm, yet we easily
cover up our wrongs. We bow before you in hope and trust that you won’t push
us away but will draw us home once more into the arms of your never-failing
love. Amen. |

*Affirmation of Faith
The Apostles’ Creed I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven
and earth. and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by
the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was
crucified, dead, and buried; He descended into hell; the third day He rose
again from the dead; He ascended into heaven, and sitteth
at the right hand of God, the Father Almighty; from thence He shall come to
judge the quick and the dead. I believe in the Holy Ghost, the holy catholic
Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of
the body, and life everlasting. Amen. |

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy

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. |
