love and your faithfulness;
All: for you have exalted your name and
your word above everything.

PRAYER OF CONFESSION
Holy and merciful God, in your presence we confess our sinfulness, our shortcomings and our offenses against you. You alone know how often we have sinned in wandering from your ways, in wasting your gifts, in forgetting your love. Have mercy on us, O Lord, for we are ashamed and sorry for all we have done to displease you. Forgive our sins, and help us to live in your light, and walk in your ways, for the sake of Jesus Christ our Savior…
Silent Prayers of Confession
ASSURANCE OF FORGIVENESS
