THE CALL TO CONFESSION

THE PRAYER OF CONFESSION
Almighty God: from the ends of the earth you have gathered us around
Christ's holy table. Forgive our separate ways. Forgive everything that keeps
us apart; the prides that prevent our proper reunion. O God, have mercy on
your church, troubled and divided. Renew in us true unity of purpose; that
we may break bread together, and, with one voice, praise Jesus Christ our
Lord. Amen.
