* 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.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: INVOCATION: CALL TO WORSHIP: (Psalm 80) Hear us, Shepherd of Israel, You who lead us like a flock You are seated in the heavens, Your glory shines in all the world Awaken Your might, O LORD, come and save us Restore us, O God; make Your face shine upon us that we may be saved. Revive us, LORD and we will call on Your name Restore us, LORD God Almighty; make Your face shine upon us that we may be saved.

* PRAYER OF CONFESSION: God of mercy, You sent Jesus Christ to seek and save the lost. We confess that we have strayed from You and turned aside from Your way. We are misled by pride, for we see ourselves pure when we are stained and great when we are small. We have failed to love, neglected justice, and ignored Your truth. Have mercy, O God, and forgive our sin. Return us to paths of righteousness through Jesus Christ, our Savior.
