            All: Spirit of the living God, fall afresh on us.
      Leader: “I will put my spirit within you, and you shall live, and you shall know that I am the Lord.”                                                                   All: Melt us, mold us, fill us, use us.  Spirit of the living God, fall afresh on us."

* PRAYER OF CONFESSION
Spirit of the Living Lord, remind us of God's mercy and faithfulness. Where we have not followed Christ, direct our paths. Where we have not given you praise, rebuke our hearts. Come to us in our time of brokenness and defeat. Forgive us, O God, and remind us of your enduring love. Breathe your Spirit upon our lives and make us holy and one. Amen.
