P In these forty days, let us be honest, confess our sin, and receive God s promise of mercy. Silence for reflection and self-examination. WORDS OF INSTITUTION AND THE LORD S PRAYER DISTRIBUTION Lamb of God P Almighty God, C we have wandered far from your home; again and again, we lose our way. We turn inward, afraid of the world around us. We forget that you have saved your people before and promise to do so again. Do not remember the deeds of our past, but turn our faces toward the future, where your forgiveness is sure, your welcome is clear, and your love overflows. Amen. P Like manna in the desert, God feeds us with surprising mercy. Like a loving parent, God runs to meet us again this day, forgiving our sins for the sake of Christ, leading us from death into life.
