Prayer of Approach

The Lord’s Prayer Page 921 in VU

*#218 "We Praise You, O God"

An Affirmation of Faith: (in unison)

We know that God is in the world — was and is and will be. God made it all, and continues to renew and remake and resurrect.

We know God best in the life of Jesus, who was and is our maker of hope, the one who saves.

We know the power and energy of God in theHoly Spirit.

We are filled with God’s joy and pledged to discipleship and love.

We trust in God. We celebrate God. We work together for justice and peace through God.

We are never alone. We are free in the chosen bonds of the ways of the Christ. Thanks be to God!
