*PRAYER OF CONFESSION (unison) Redeeming God, as we gather this morning, we bow our heads and ask you to please forgive us. Forgive us for turning away from the one true foundation of our lives. Forgive us for looking toward money, or attention, or our bodies, or what we eat and drink as our foundation, and to satisfy ourselves. Strengthen and encourage us to look only to you and your Spirit for our foundation. Continue to redeem us and give us the courage to trust in your mercy and your love. Strengthen us to resist temptation and sin and stay deeply connected to you.

their family and friends support and console them; P: Holy God, hear this prayer for our fathers that mourn. L: For men who may or may not have children of their own, but act like a father to someone

in need of advice, support, nurturing, and love; P: Holy God, hear this prayer of thanks for our father figures. L: For step-fathers who have assumed that role with love and joy, who have loved the

children of another as their own, and created a new family; P: Holy God, hear this prayer for faithful step-fathers. L: For adoptive fathers, who have heard the call of God to lovingly step forward for those

that need their care; P: Holy God, hear this prayer for adoptive fathers. L: For fathers who had been unable to be a source of strength, who have not responded to the

have taught us, guided us, and molded us into servants of Christ our Lord; P: Holy God, hear this our prayer for the fathers of our faith. L: For all our beautiful, amazing fathers who have inspired, guided, joked, taught, and loved

us, we give thanks this day. P: Amen, and thank you, Father-God.
