We are here to answer the call of Jesus by turning from our sins and turning toward him. Let us pray: Forgiving Father, we confess that we have transgressed the boundaries you put in place. Remind us that your boundaries are not fences that trap us, but rather guard rails that keep us on the right road going in the right direction. We confess our greed, lust, pride, and rage all of which damage our ability to love our neighbors. We confess that we have missed the mark. Forgive us we ask, as you forgave the paralyzed man on the mat. In Jesus name we pray, Amen. Declaration of Pardon: On the basis of the Gospel of Christ, we may be assured that our sins are forgiven for the sake of Christ. Your sins are forgiven. Take hold of this forgiveness and live. The peace of Christ be with you all. And also with you.
