* Opening Hymn Jesus Shall Reign Where'er the Sun  Hymn #265 (1, 3 & 4)

Prayer of Confession (Unison)  
Unison: God of justice and righteousness, have mercy upon us as we confess our sin. We say we love our neighbors, but we still make distinctions. We favor the rich and discount the poor. We say we have faith, but our works do not show it; we preach Jesus Christ while we send the hungry away. While our lips praise you, our hands cast off strangers. We are not worthy to ask your forgiveness except for the name of Christ, who pardoned the thief on the cross and forgave those who put him to death.

For thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory, forever. Amen.
