Confession and Pardon

-Invitation 

-Unison Confession:

Merciful God,

we confess that we have sinned against you

in thought, word, and deed,

by what we have done,

and by what we have left undone.

We have not loved you

with our whole heart and mind and strength.

We have not loved our neighbors as ourselves.

In your mercy forgive what we have been,

help us amend what we are,

and direct what we shall be,

so that we may delight in your will

and walk in your ways,

to the glory of your holy name.

Through Christ, our Lord. Amen.


-Silent prayer

-Assurance of Pardon:

Hear the word of God from 1 Peter:

He himself bore our sins in his body on the cross,

so that, free from sins,

we might live for righteousness;

by his wounds you have been healed.

—1 Peter 2:24, NRSV


In Jesus Christ, you are forgiven!

Report from the PNC

Praying the Old Testament

The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it. 

The world and all its people belong to him. 

For he laid the earth’s foundation on the seas 

and built it on the ocean depths. 

Who may climb the mountain of the Lord? 

Who may stand in his holy place? 

Only those whose hands and hearts are pure, 

who do not worship idols 

and never tell lies. 

They will receive the Lord’s blessing 

and have a right relationship with God their savior. 

Such people may seek you 

and worship in your presence, O God of Jacob. 

Open up, ancient gates! 

Open up, ancient doors, 

and let the King of glory enter. 

Who is the King of glory? 

The Lord, strong and mighty; 

the Lord, invincible in battle. 

Open up, ancient gates! 

Open up, ancient doors, 

and let the King of glory enter. 

Who is the King of glory? 

The Lord of Heaven’s Armies— 

he is the King of glory. 

Psalm 24 (NLT)

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