 Call to Confession:                  Psalm 11:4-5

The Lord is in his holy temple; the Lord's throne is in heaven; his eyes see, his eyelids test the children of man. The Lord tests the righteous, but his soul hates the wicked and the one who loves violence.

Let us confess our sins

Prayer of Confession (unison)

O most great, most just and gracious God; You are of purer eyes than to behold iniquity, but You have promised mercy through Jesus Christ to all that repent and believe in Him. We confess that we have all sinned and come short of the glory of God. We have not sought first Your kingdom. We have run into temptation, and the sin that we should have hated, we have committed. Have mercy on us, most merciful Father! In Your Son is our salvation, in Your promises, our hope. Take us for Your children and give us the Spirit of Your Son, through Jesus Christ our only Savior.

Private Confession

 Assurance of Forgiveness:   John 3:17

For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him.

The Apostles' 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, born of the virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried;

He descended into hell;

the third day he rose again 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 quick and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Ghost; the holy catholic◦ church;

The communion of saints; the forgiveness of sins;

The resurrection of the body; and the life everlasting. Amen

The Communion Service

Institution        1 Corinthians 11:23-26

Examination    1 Corinthians 11:27-29

Invitation        

All who trust in Jesus Christ for salvation, are baptized members in good standing of congregations that proclaim the gospel, are repentant of their sin and are at peace with their brothers and sisters in Christ are invited to partake of the Lord’s Supper, feeding on the grace of God by faith.  If you have not put your trust in Christ, please allow the elements to pass you by and take this opportunity to meditate on the meaning of the Gospel.

It is our belief that Jesus instituted the Lord's Supper using the elements of unleavened bread and wine. Therefore, following his example, the bread offered is unleavened and wine is offered in the outer ring of the tray. If, however, for reasons of conscience, you are not able to participate using wine, grape juice is provided in the center of the tray.

(A Word to Parents:  Baptized children are invited to the table after they have made a profession of faith and have been received as communing members by the church to which their parents belong.)
