*CALL TO WORSHIP Harlan Mohler
O Lord, we find ourselves experiencing change and looking for direction;
We come to worship knowing you will lead us with unfailing love and faithfulness;
O Lord, in whom should we place our trust?
In you, Lord, we will place our trust.
We come to you seeking the path we should follow,
You know that all too often we strike out on a path without you,
Come Lord during this time of worship,
Lead us into the Promised Land and give us faith to follow.
--Taylor Boone

*OPENING HYMN No. 529 How Firm a Foundation ALL

PRAYER OF CONFESSION:
All: Merciful God,
we confess that we have not loved you with our whole heart.
We have failed to be an obedient church.
We have not done your will,
we have broken your law
we have rebelled against your love,
we have not loved our neighbors,
and we have not heard the cry of the needy.
Forgive us, we pray.
Free us for joyful obedience,
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

SILENT PRAYERS

WORDS OF ASSURANCE:
Leader: Hear the good news:
Christ died for us while we were yet sinners;
that proves God’s love toward us.
In the name of Jesus Christ, you are forgiven!
People: In the name of Jesus Christ, you are forgiven!
All: Glory to God. Amen.
