Confession and Forgiveness

Silence is kept for reflection.
P: Gracious God,
C: we confess to you all the ways in which we dismiss the resurrection news. We are slow of heart to believe. We turn from others and retreat in fear. Come into our locked rooms and breathe into us your forgiving Spirit. Reawaken our trust and strengthen our hope, that we may be witnesses to your saving power. Amen.
P: Peace be with you, sisters and brothers. In baptism you have received a spirit of adoption; you are God’s beloved children. In the name of Jesus Christ + your sins are forgiven. Rejoice, and welcome this freedom as a gift.
C: Amen.
