Prayer of Approach - We thank you all-loving God. We thank you for all things bright and beautiful, all creatures great and small. We thank you for each little flower, each little bird, for the mountains, for the rivers, the sunrise and the sunset, and for the abundance of our gardens - for you have made them all. We thank you for family and friends, for our communities and our nation, and for our churches. All good gifts are sent from You. Most especially, we thank you for your love and your grace that give us the promise of eternal life through the sacrifice of your Son, Jesus Christ, upon the Cross. We praise you. We thank you. Amen.
Hymn - VU#238;- "How Great Thou Art"
Prayer of Confession - To you, O God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, we ask for your mercy for we have sinned. We have taken so much for granted. We can get so focused on all the little things that are wrong and overlook all the good things you have
provided for our benefit and enjoyment. Help us to be filled with gratitude to You for all that you have done, are doing, and will do. Amen.
