Prelude: Toni Sears “Easter Song” CALL TO WORSHIP: We are here today because the weeping Mary Magdala once said: “I have seen the Lord!” We are here because Jesus still comes into our locked spaces and says “Peace be with You. Receive the Holy Spirit.” We are here today like doubting Thomas who finally cried: “My Lord and my God” We are here like Peter, tempted to forget the call of Jesus: I’m going fishing.” We are here this morning because of Jesus, who asks us face-to-face : “do you truly love me?” We gather here to whisper timidly. “Yes, Lord, You know that we love You.” All: we are here as a congregation only because many faithful disciples have listened to Jesus’ words: “Do not be afraid. Do not be afraid! Go and tell. ‘Jesus has been raised!” INVOCATION
*Hymn: “Jesus Christ is Risen Today” # 232
*PRAYER OF CONFESSION: We listen to the news, read the newspaper, and wonder of peace will ever reign in Your world, Lord. Today we have been invited to be with the disciples in that hidden place where they also wondered about peace and hope. You broke through. You shattered the darkness and they were astonished again. Help us to understand that You will bring peace to each one of us. Forgive all those times when we treat this moment of revelation as though it was impossible. Give us the courage to reach out to You and touch our hearts once again. For we ask this in Jesus’ name. Amen *Time of silent prayer *Assurance of Pardon *Response – Gloria Patri # 581 Passing of the Peace Scripture: John 20: 24-30 *Hymn: “Christ is Risen!

*PRAYER OF CONFESSION: O Lord, You know At times I have hidden Your light in my heart, not sharing You. At times I have not spoken of Your salvation, staying silent.

Do not withhold Your watch and care over me. Be pleased to help us, Savior, our Redeemer, our Lord.

ANNOUNCEMENTS; CALL TO WORSHIP: Psalm (116) All: We love You LORD, You heard our voices. You heard our cries for mercy. We love You LORD. The LORD is gracious and righteous; He is full of compassion. Our souls may rest, the LORD has been good to us. The LORD has delivered us from death, our eyes from tears, and our feet from stumbling. We call on the name of the LORD, Praise the LORD. *Hymn “Faith of Our Fathers” (see insert) ( verse 1)
* PRAYER OF CONFESSION: ( A prayer by Clement of Rome)
You who are faithful throughout all generations, righteous in Your judgements, marvelous in strength and excellence, You who are good, and faithful toward those who trust in You. You who show pity and compassion. Forgive us our sins, our unrighteousness, our transgressions, and our shortcomings. Do not hold us to account for every sin but cleanse us with the cleansing of Your truth. Guide our steps to walk in holiness, righteousness, and singleness of heart. Help us to do those things that are good and pleasing in Your sight.
