Prayer of Confession and Hope Nyla

Let us pray:
Loving God, we come before you with humble hearts, acknowledging our shortcomings and the
times we have fallen short of your perfect love. In Your mercy, we seek your forgiveness and

1
ask for your help and strength to be more like You each day. Transform our hearts and empower
us to live out the values of your kingdom in our thoughts, words, and actions.
Thank you for your love and abundant forgiveness. Grant us the grace to extend the same love
and forgiveness to those around us. May we be vessels of your compassion and instruments of
your peace in the world.
In the name of Jesus, our Redeemer we pray. Amen.

Energizer Message Meshaune and Grayson

Scripture Luke 10:25-37 Rev. Don Oliver

Just then a lawyer stood up to test Jesus. ‘Teacher,’ he said, ‘what must I do to inherit eternal
life?’ He said to him, ‘What is written in the law? What do you read there?’ He answered, ‘You
shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your
strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbour as yourself.’ And he said to him, ‘You have
given the right answer; do this, and you will live.’

But wanting to justify himself, he asked Jesus, ‘And who is my neighbour?’ Jesus replied, ‘A
man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell into the hands of robbers, who stripped
him, beat him, and went away, leaving him half dead. Now by chance a priest was going down
that road; and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side. So likewise a Levite, when he
came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. But a Samaritan while travelling
came near him; and when he saw him, he was moved with pity. He went to him and bandaged
his wounds, having poured oil and wine on them. Then he put him on his own animal, brought

2
him to an inn, and took care of him. The next day he took out two denarii, gave them to the
innkeeper, and said, “Take care of him; and when I come back, I will repay you whatever more
you spend.” Which of these three, do you think, was a neighbour to the man who fell into the
hands of the robbers?’ He said, ‘The one who showed him mercy.’ Jesus said to him, ‘Go and do
likewise.’
