Prayer of Confession
Merciful God, you pardon all who truly repent and turn to you. We
humbly confess our sins and ask your mercy. We have not loved
you with a pure heart, nor have we loved our neighbor as
ourselves. We have not done justice, loved kindness or walked
humbly with you, our God. Have mercy on us O God; cleanse us
from our sin. Create in us a clean heart and renew a right spirit
within us. (Please continue in silent confession) Amen.
Assurance of Pardon

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
