INVITATION TO THE PRAYER FOR FORGIVENESS ROBERT REILLY PRAYER FOR FORGIVENESS ROBERT REILLY Gracious God, we have to admit, that we are more likely to be irritated by the lives of others, rather than being provoked to love them. When we are called to encourage those around us, too often our actions and words discourage them. Offered lives of peace and hope, we wander around filled with anxiety and despair. Forgive us, and cleanse our hearts, so we might be more loving; keep us on the path of faithfulness, so we might find those whom we are called to serve; give us your words, so we might confess your hope offered to all who are broken, who are lost, who cry out to you. This we pray in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. SILENCE IS KEPT ASSURANCE OF FORGIVENESS REV. JOE DOROCIAK This is the good news: God gives us hope, God gives us peace, God gives us joy, so we may share these gifts with everyone we meet. Thanks be to God, who has forgiven us and provoked us to love others and to serve all who are around us. Amen. HYMN 447 WE ARE FORGIVEN We are forgiven. We are forgiven. Thanks be to God. Thanks be to God. We are forgiven. We are forgiven. Thanks be to God. Thanks be to God. PASSING OF THE PEACE May the peace of Christ be with you. REV. JOE DOROCIAK STAND AS YOU ARE ABLE PAGE 3
