     Leader:  I call on your name;
          All: You are my God.
     Leader:  I stand in humble adoration;
          All:  Because you are my God.
     Leader:  Here I come to worship;
            All:  Here I come to praise; here I come to bow down.

*HYMN on insert “Kum Ba Yah”
 
*PRAYER OF CONFESSION                                        
Eternal God, our judge and redeemer, we confess that we have tried to hide from you, for we have done wrong.  We have lived for ourselves, and apart from you.  We have turned from our neighbors and refused to bear the burdens of others.  We have ignored the pain of the world, and passed by the hungry, the poor, and the oppressed.  In your great mercy forgive our sins and free us from selfishness, that we may choose your will and obey your commandments; through Jesus Christ our Savior.  Amen.

IF DESIRING A VISIT: If you or a family member are in the hospital and you wish a visit, please contact the church office or any Deacon or Elder. Due to privacy laws, the hospitals are not permitted to contact churches or reply to church’s inquiries. If you know of anyone who needs or desires any other pastoral care, please also contact us.  During this time when we do not have a pastor,   we should each do our part as Jesus designed to "carry each other's burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ."             (Galatians 6:2)
