Leader: I appeal to you, sisters and brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a lively gift, holy and acceptable to God. People: Let us not be conformed to this world. O God, transform us by the renewing of our minds. Leader: Together, discern the will of God |

Welcoming | My Peace | Rev. Jon Berquist |
ONE: All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God; yet God is merciful as well as just, quick to hear and to forgive. Let us then boldly confess our sins before God: ALL: God of glory, you have proved yourself to us over and over again, and still we doubt. You have offered us the bread of life, yet we have gorged ourselves on that which does not nourish. You have given us the cup that releases us from sin, and yet we cling to so many of our sins with self-righteousness and without repentance. For these and every way we sin against you, we ask your forgiveness. |

Life of the Church | Jesus Thou Joy of Loving Hearts | Frank Fournier |
ONE: Christ lived for us. Christ died for us. Christ rose for us. Friends, hear and believe the good news of the gospel: in Jesus Christ we are forgiven. ALL: Hallelujah! Amen! |
||
Passing of the Peace | Let All Things Now Living | Congregation |
ALL: O God, open our ears to your teaching, so that our mouths can learn to sing your praise, our feet can learn to follow your steps, and our hands can do your work in this world. |
