THE CALL TO CONFESSION
THE PRAYER OF CONFESSION
Righteous God, we confess that we have sinned against you in thought,
word, and deed. We have professed our faith in you, but our words ring hollow.
We do not live by the truth we speak. We turn aside from those in greatest
need and fail to love our neighbors as ourselves. Forgive us for seeking to
serve you merely by saying the right things. Empower us by your Spirit to live
according to your word, so that people may see our good works, and glorify
you as the true Savior and Redeemer. Amen.
A MOMENT OF SILENCE (for examination of conscience and personal prayers of confession)
THE ASSURANCE OF PARDON

the Spirit, ever three and ever one; One in might and one in glory while unending
ages run.

THE ANTHEM Thou Shalt Know Him When He Comes Hal Hopson
Thou shalt know Him when He comes, not by any din of drums, nor the manner of His

comes. Amen.

“You are the Messiah.” Mark 8:29
* THE HYMN 309 Of the Father’s Love Begotten (verses 1 and 3)
* THE AFFIRMATION OF FAITH from The Theological Declaration of Barmen, 1934
Jesus Christ, as he is attested for us in Holy Scripture, is the one Word of God
which we have to hear and which we have to trust and obey in life and in
death. As Jesus Christ is God's assurance of the forgiveness of all our sins, so in
the same way and with the same seriousness is he also God's mighty claim upon
our whole life. Amen.
