ANNOUNCEMENTS
CALL TO WORSHIP
Blessed are those who trust in the Lord,
whose confidence is in God.
They will be like a tree planted by the water,
sending out roots by the stream.
This tree does not fear when heat comes;
its leaves are green, its fruit endures.
So come, let us place our trust in God!
Let us live in blessed faith together!
HYMN # 65 Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah
PRAYER OF CONFESSION
God of grace and goodness, your mercy comes to us in ways that continually surprise us, for you appear to offer such mercy with no strings attached which is so different from the way we so often act and live. Naaman's wealth was of no consequence in his healing and the leper's exclusion from society was no barrier to his being healed by Jesus. Such acts of grace sadly call many of our actions into question as we, too often, place conditions on our love and our acceptance of many people within our communities. Perhaps our greatest sin lies in believing that we know where the boundaries of divine love and mercy are drawn.
Forgive us, O God, when we deprive people of the love we owe them as people unconditionally loved by you.
Help us to see people with Jesus' eyes and to be moved by his compassion so that we become active and fearless bearers of healing and mercy. Empower us with your Spirit to be barrier-breakers rather than barrier-builders and remind us, if necessary over and over, that nothing can separate us, or others, from your love as we experience it in Jesus Christ, our Lord and our Saviour.
This we pray in his name. Amen
ASSURANCE OF PARDON
As the man with leprosy, considered unclean by society, was made clean by a touch and a word from Jesus, so we are cleansed from all unrighteousness through belief in him. Friends, believe and live the good news: In Jesus Christ we are loved, we are cleansed, we are forgiven!
Thanks be to God!
