Prelude
*Welcome & Greetings L: The Lord be with you.
C: And also with you.
*Opening Hymn I Love To Tell The Story UMH #156
*Call to Worship Psalm 23
All: My shepherd is the Lord, nothing indeed shall I want.
L: The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not want.
C: He makes me lie down in green pastures;
L: He leads me beside still waters; he restores my soul
C: He leads me in right paths for his name’s sake,
L: Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I fear no evil;
C: for you are with me; your rod and your staff—they
comfort me.
L: You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
C: you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.
L: Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of
my life,
C: and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD my whole life
long.
All: My shepherd is the Lord, nothing indeed shall I want.
*Gloria Patri See Screen
*Prayer of Confession
L: Almighty God, by your power you have raised Jesus Christ
from the grave to rule this world in love. We confess that we
have not believed in him but have remained captive to doubt
and fear, bound by the ways that lead to death. Forgive our
dread of dying, our hopelessness, our constant desire to live
for ourselves alone. Set us free in the victory of Jesus Christ,
to live our lives in joy and service, that we may share his
good news to all in need, and live as your glad and faithful
people.
C: Lord, have mercy. Christ, have mercy. Lord, have mercy.
L: Friends, believe the good news of the bible and know that in
Jesus Christ, we are forgiven.
All: Thanks be to God.
