Litany Of Confession
P: In the name of the Father, and of the Son, + and of the Holy Spirit.
C: Amen.
P: We come to you in our weakness, O Lord, not knowing how to pray as we ought.
C: We hold on to the things around us, expecting them to bring us happiness, expecting them to give us life.
P: We pray that your mighty Spirit would breathe in us, that we might let go of all that keeps us from loving you.
C: We pray that as we acknowledge the depth of our sin before you, you would hold on to us, so we know nothing can separate us from your love.
Silence for confession and self-examination
P: If God is for us, who is against us?
C: The very Son of God was not withheld, but was given up for all of us.
P: Will not God along with the Son also give us everything else?
C: Yes, indeed!
P: As a called and ordained minister of the Church of Christ, and by his authority,
I therefore declare to you the entire forgiveness of all your saints, in the name of
the Father, and of the Son, + and of the Holy Spirit.
C: Amen.

Prayer Of The Day
P: O God of every time and space, in the beauty of your mercy you set before us the dominion of heaven. Trusting in your eternal goodness, may we see the impermanence of this world's wealth and the joy, which your Holy Spirit alone can give, through Jesus Christ, our Lord.
C: Amen.
Intercessory Prayer
After each petition:
L: Let your Spirit bear witness with our spirit,
C: that we may live in hope.
Offertory Prayer
A: The dominion of heaven is like a treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and hid. Then in his joy he sells all that he has and buys that field.
C: May we find such treasure in our giving, and may your joy increase, O Lord, as you see our lives glorify you. Amen.
Benediction
P: May you be granted wisdom to understand and to act faithfully;
may you be granted vision to see Christ's presence in the midst of all things;
and may you be filled with such joy that you will love as you have never loved before.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, + and of the Holy Spirit.
C: Amen.
Dismissal
A: Grow your church, O Lord, like a mustard seed,
that all people may come and rest in its branches.
C: Use us, gracious God, according to your will. Amen.
