ANNOUNCEMENTS: CALL TO WORSHIP: L. We were all at once without Christ. P. We were without hope, without God in the world. L. But by the blood of Christ, we have been brought near. P. We are citizens of heaven with all the saints, having access to the Father through the Spirit. L. Worship today the one who restores our hope, our, the Lord Jesus. INVOCATION:
* Hymn “Take My Life” # 697
* PRAYER OF CONFESSION: (Unison) Almighty and most merciful Father, we are thankful that Your mercy is higher than the heavens, wider than our wanderings, deeper than all our sin. Forgive our careless attitudes toward Your purposes, our refusal to relieve the suffering of others, our envy of those who have more than we have, our obsession with creating a life of constant pleasure, our indifference to the treasures of heaven, our neglect of Your wise and gracious law. Help us to change our way of life so that we may desire what is good, love what You love, and do what You command, through Jesus Christ our Lord.
