PRELUDE
WELCOME AND ANNOUNCING THE DAY
A tended nursery is available during Sunday worship services.
It is located downstairs before you enter Fellowship Hall.
CONFESSION AND FORGIVENESS
All may make the sign of the cross, the sign marked at baptism, as the presiding minister begins.
P: Blessed be the holy Trinity,
one God, who forgives all our sin, whose mercy endures forever.
C: Amen.
P: Seeking reconciliation with God and neighbor, let us remember the gift of baptism and confess our sin.
Silence is kept for reflection.
God of mercy,
C: we confess that we have sinned against you, against one another, and against the earth entrusted to our care. We are worried and distracted by many things, and we fail to love you above all else. We store up treasures for ourselves and turn away from our neighbors in need. Forgive us, that we may live in the freedom of your Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
P: When we were laid low by sin and guilt, God made us alive together with Christ, forgiving us
all our trespasses by taking our sins to the cross. For freedom Christ has set us free: Rejoice in this good news!
C: Amen.

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.
PRAYERS OF INTERCESSION Celebrate Insert
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.)

C: for the greening earth given for all, for the talents we are given to share, and for this bread and wine. Transform us to be the body of Christ, that, feasting on this food and drink, our lives may reflect your generosity; through Christ our Lord. Amen.
WORDS OF INSTITUTION
THE LORD’S PRAYER
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.

For thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory for ever and ever. Amen.
