Confession and Forgiveness
P: Blessed be the Holy Trinity, + one God, healer of our every ill, source of unending mercy.
C: Amen.
P: Embraced in enduring grace and good hope, let us turn to God, confessing the truth about ourselves.
Silence is kept for reflection.
P: Merciful God,
C: we come before you, beloved but broken. We have not always treated others as we would want to them to treat us. We have not always called out injustice and abuse. We have not always been kind to ourselves. We have not always taken care of the world we share with other living creatures. Remind us of who we are, beloved children bathed in your love. Renew us by your Spirit to live as your holy people, bringing healing to the brokenness around us. Amen.
P: At every moment you are held in existence by the love of God, renewed by the Spirit within and among you, and made alive again in Christ. Receive this assurance in Jesus’ name: you are forgiven + and freed to live for the healing of the world.
C: Amen.
Gathering Song: “You Are My Everything”

O God, our eternal redeemer, by the presence of your Spirit you renew and direct our hearts. Keep always in our mind the end of all things and the day of judgment. Inspire us for a holy life here, and bring us to the joy of the resurrection, through Jesus Christ, our Savior and Lord. Amen.
