Call to Confession
Unison Prayer of Confession
God of hope and blessing, we turn to you with repentant hearts, confessing sins and seeking forgiveness. We have not been faithful in service to you or presented to the world an accurate picture of your love. We have turned from your Word, resisted the Holy Spirit, and failed to perform the tasks you have entrusted to us. You set a plumb line among us that our faithfulness can be measured. Forgive our shortcomings. In your great mercy and unfailing love, grant us salvation and peace. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
