Prayer of Confession: (Leader and congregation in unison)
God . . .
We confess that we think we can go it alone,
We try to do it all,
That in doing so, we neglect the gifts you have given us. . .
And the relationships you created us for.
Jesus Christ, you who lived in a human body,
Call us to community.
Remind us that in you we are one.
Awake in us a respect for one another,
And celebrate with us the diversity within that unity.
May it be so now and forever. Amen.
