Prelude: Ron Dobscha
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Mother’s Day Program CALL TO WORSHIP: (Psalm 63) You, O God are our God. Earnestly we seek You. We thirst for You, our whole being belongs to You. Your love is better than life! We will praise You as long as we live. With our mouths we will glorify You. We will rejoice in God. All: Your hand, O God upholds us. *Hymn “Faith of Our Father’s (Mothers) 1 verse (see insert)
* PRAYER OF CONFESSION:
O most great, most just and gracious God; You are of purer eyes than to behold iniquity; but You have promised mercy through Jesus Christ to all who repent and believe in Him. Therefore we confess that we are sinful by nature and that we have all sinned and come short of the glory of God. We have dealt unjustly and uncharitably with our neighbors, We have not sought first Your kingdom and righteousness. We have not been content with our daily bread. You have revealed Your wonderful love to us in Christ and offered us pardon and salvation in Him; but we have turned away. We have run into temptation; and the sin that we should have hated, Have mercy upon us, most merciful Father! We confess You alone are our hope. Make us Your children and give us the Spirit of Your Son, our only Savior.

* PRAYER OF CONFESSION: Heavenly Father, You have called us to a great hope and purpose. You have invited us to abide in You in every season.

* PRAYER OF CONFESSION:
O King of Glory, we confess that our praise of Your majesty has often been faint, our performance as citizens of Your kingdom, treasonous. For we have surrendered to the enemy by our secret and our known sins. For our treason You died, Lord Jesus. For our restoration, You rose again. Draw us closer to You in this Holy Week, that our eyes may catch the vision of Your tears, and our hearts, the wonder of Your grace. By the Holy Spirit’s continuing discipline, let us be loyal and loving servants of the King. Praise be to You, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
