Lectionary Worship Workbook
Series III, Cycle A
Object:
Order For Confession And Forgiveness
P: In the name of the Father, and of the Son, + and of the Holy Spirit.
C: Amen.
Silence for self-examination, repentance, and confession
P: O Lord, O God of truth,
C: we confess to you that we have been ashamed of the gospel and of the life of holiness to which you have called us. We confess that we have sought our own righteousness, not yours. We confess that we have desired to make others in our image and likeness, so that they would honor us and our accomplishments, and by so doing, we have dishonored you. For the foolishness of our pride and the imprudence of our actions we seek your forgiveness.
P: All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God; they are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God put forward as a sacrifice of atonement by his blood, effective through faith. As a called and ordained minister of the Church of Christ, and by his authority, I therefore declare to you the entire forgiveness of all your sins, in the name of the Father, and of the Son, + and of the Holy Spirit.
C: Blessed be the Lord. Amen.
Prayer Of The Day
P: O Lord our God, your righteousness fills the heavens and the earth. In your mercy, grant us faith to heed your word and do you will, through your Son, Jesus Christ, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, through all ages of ages.
C: Amen.
The Intercessions
After each petition:
A: Lord in your mercy,
C: give our hearts courage.
Offertory Prayer
A: Into your hands,
C: O Blessed Redeemer, we commend all that is ours,
in the name of the one who offered himself for us,
Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
Dismissal
L: Go in peace; build your house on his rock.
C: Thanks be to God.
