Call to Confession
The proof of God’s amazing love is this:
While we were sinners, Christ died for us.
Let us therefore approach God’s throng of grace with boldness,
so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in our time of need.
We trust in God’s faithfulness and compassion
as we confess our sin before God and to one another.
