Prelude “Shall We Gather at the River?” J. Holstein
Welcome
Call To Worship
In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.
The Spirit of God swept over the face of the waters;
then God said: Let there be light, and God saw that it was good.
At the beginning of his ministry, Jesus was baptized by John.
The heavens opened, and the Spirit descended like a dove;
then God said: This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
Hymn 703: Jesus, Thy Boundless Love to Me
Prayer of Confession
God of all glory, you look from heaven and see us as we are—
not worthy to kneel at your feet, not ready to welcome your way.
Forgive us, gracious God.
In Christ, stoop down to save us; loosen the ties that bind us to sin
and set us free to love and serve you; in Jesus’ name. Amen.
In this time of silence, hear the confessions of our hearts.
Amen.

All-glorious God, maker of heaven and earth, hear us as we pray:

Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors;

For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever. Amen.
