People: I do not occupy myself with things too great and too
marvelous for me.
Leader: But I have calmed and quieted my soul, like a weaned child with its
mother;

Leader: O Israel, hope in the Lord from this time on and forevermore.
- Psalm 131
* THE PROCESSIONAL HYMN 150 Come, Christians, Join to Sing
THE CALL TO CONFESSION
THE PRAYER OF CONFESSION
Merciful God, we confess that we have sinned against you in thought,
word, and deed. We have not loved you with our whole heart and mind
and strength; we have not loved our neighbors as ourselves.
In your mercy forgive what we have been, help us amend what we are,
and direct what we shall be, so that we may delight in your will and walk
in your ways, to the glory of your holy name. Amen.
