Call to Confession
Unison Prayer of Confession
Merciful God, we confess that we have sinned against you in thought, word, and deed, by what we have done, and by what we have left undone. We have not loved you with our whole heart, mind, and strength. We have not loved our neighbors as ourselves. In your mercy, forgive what we have been, help us to change what we are, and direct what we will be, so that we may delight in your will and walk in your ways, to the glory of your holy name. We come to renew our relationship to you through Christ, our Lord, Amen.
