Confession and Forgiveness
P: Blessed be the Holy Trinity, + one God, who stretches out the heavens, who sends light to the nations, who gives breath to us all.
C: Amen.
P: Let us confess our sin in the presence of God and one another.
Silence is kept for reflection.
P: Loving God,
C: we confess that we have turned from your way to follow our own ways. Forgive us for the times we have spoken or acted too quickly; we have not spoken or acted at all; we have hurt those closest to us; we have hurt those we have yet to know; we have thought more about ourselves than others; we have thought less of ourselves than we ought. Turn us around, and give us a fresh start, so that we can live again as your children. Amen.
P: Even when we have done wrong, God makes us right. Even when we are broken, God puts us together. God’s love never runs out. God never tires of calling us beloved children. Hear God say to you now: Your sins are forgiven, for the sake of + Jesus Christ our Saviour.
C: Amen.
