CALL TO WORSHIP
Liturgist
LEADER: Find rest, O our souls, in God alone; our hope
comes from Him.
O God, we have celebrated the coming of our Lord. We
decorated and brought presents and ate well, and now we look
for life to return to normal. We find comfort in our routines, and
in our ‘normal’ life. We hide from the new way of life that you
have gifted us with. We enjoy loving ourselves—but others?
Not so much. Sacrifice our way of doing things, our routine,
our comfort? Maybe later. We have failed you, Oh Gracious
God, forgive us in your mercy. Amen. (Time of silent prayer)
PEOPLE: He alone is our rock and our salvation; He is
our fortress. We will not be shaken
ASSURANCE OF FORGIVENESS
Friends, hear the Good News! Our soul waits for the Lord; he is our
help and shield. Our heart is glad in him because we trust in his
holy name. There is now no condemnation for those who are in
Christ Jesus. Friends, believe the Good News!
LEADER: Our salvation and our honor depend on God He is
our mighty rock, our refuge.
PEOPLE: In Jesus Christ we are forgiven!

CALL TO CONFESSION
Liturgist
The Christ has come. He instructed us in the way of life and the
way of love. He gave himself for us. We claim to be his disciples,
and we ourselves take great comfort in being his. But do we live as
he taught us? Do we love as he loved? Do we serve others or do
we serve ourselves? Let us confess together our faults and sins.

SHARING THE JOY OF GOD’S LOVE!
AFFIRMATION OF FAITH: “The Apostle’s Creed—Traditional version”
I believe in God, the Father almighty, Maker of heaven and
earth, and in Jesus Christ his only Son our Lord; who was
conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered
under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried; he
descended into hell; the third day he rose again from the dead;
he ascended into heaven, and sitteth on the right hand of God
the Father Almighty; from thence he shall come to judge the
quick and the dead. I believe in the Holy Ghost; the Holy
catholic church; the communion of saints; the forgiveness of
sins; the resurrection of the body; and life everlasting.
