Hymn: Let Us Break Bread Together
 
Call to Worship
 As we gather today we call you, our father who art in heaven. As we gather today, we lift up who you are and who you represent. Hallowed be thou name, as we gather today, we seek your ways and not our own. Your kingdom come, your will be done. As we gather today, we say sorry to you and one another. Forgive us as we forgive, as we gather today we need you. Give us this day, our daily bread. Lead us away from temptation, deliver us from evil. As we gather today we pray. Amen.

Prayer of Confession
Jesus our strong shepherd, your love for us is eternal and your care for us is persistent, but how on so many occasions we resist your loving guidance. We wander off, tempted by quick and flashy solutions. We hold back cautiously seeing what others are choosing. We whine about our disagreements and criticisms to anyone who will listen. We rush ahead, confident that we know the best. Strong and tender shepherd, draw us close to you so your voice will echo in our hearts and your love will guide our steps. Call us again by name and lead us in the paths of peace. We ask it all on this Sabbath morning in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen. 

Time of Personal Reflection
 
Assurance of Pardon
In Christ there is no east or west,
In him no south or north,
But one great fellowship of love throughout the whole wide earth.
In Jesus Christ, there is new life.
In Jesus Christ, we are forgiven.

Hymn: The Family of God 

Apostle's Creed
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
      and born of the virgin Mary.
      Suffered under Pontius Pilate,
      was crucified, dead and buried.
      On the third day he arose 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 living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
      the holy catholic church,
      the communion of saints,
      the forgiveness of sins,
      the resurrection of the body,
      and the life everlasting. Amen.

Scripture Lesson
 Matthew 6:5-15

Prayer
5 “And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. 6 But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. 7 And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. 8 Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.
9 “This, then, is how you should pray:
“‘Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
10 your kingdom come,
your will be done,
    on earth as it is in heaven.
11 Give us today our daily bread.
12 And forgive us our debts,
    as we also have forgiven our debtors.
13 And lead us not into temptation,
    but deliver us from the evil one.’
14 For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. 15 But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.
