PRELUDE
WELCOME AND ANNOUNCING THE DAY
CONFESSION AND FORGIVENESS
P: Blessed be the holy Trinity,
one God, who creates us and forms us, who redeems us and calls us, who unites us and sends us.
C: Amen.
P: Gathered in God’s presence, let us confess our sin.
Silence is kept for reflection.
P: Mighty and loving God,
C: we confess that we are captive to sin and cannot free ourselves. We seek our own way. We divide the body of Christ. In your mercy, cleanse us and heal us. Let the words of our mouths, the thoughts of our hearts, and everything that we do be filled with faith, hope, and love. Amen.
P: Hear the voice of Jesus: “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me to proclaim release to the captives.” In the name of
Jesus Christ, I proclaim to you that your sins are forgiven and you are released. The joy of the Lord is your strength, and the gifts of the Holy Spirit are yours forever.
C: Amen.

HYMN OF THE DAY “Christ, When for Us You Were Baptized” #304
APOSTLES’ CREED
I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, God’s only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried; he descended to the dead. On the third day he rose again; he ascended into heaven, he is seated at the right hand of the Father, and he will come to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.
SHARING OF THE PEACE
P: The peace of the Lord be with you always.
C: And also with you.
(Share God’s Peace with your neighbor. If you would prefer not to shake hands, please feel free to extend “God’s Peace” to your neighbor through nodding or extending a grace-filled word without any physical touch.)
OFFERING
OFFERTORY “We Give Thee but Thine Own” #686
OFFERING PRAYER
P: God of all creation,
C: all you have made is good, and your love endures forever. You bring forth bread from the earth and fruit from the vine. Nourish us with these gifts, that we might be for the world signs of your gracious presence in Jesus Christ, our Savior and Lord. Amen.

THE LORD’S PRAYER
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins, as we forgive those who sinned against us. Save us from the time of trial and deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours now and forever. Amen.
BLESSING
P: The God of glory dwell in your richly, name you beloved, and shine brightly on your path; and the blessing of almighty God, the Father, the
Son, and the Holy Spirit, be upon you and remain with you always.
