Call to Worship (based on Psalm 41:1-3) Pastor Luis

Liturgist: Happy are those who consider the poor;
the Lord delivers them in times of trouble.
Congregation: The Lord protects them and preserves their life;
they are called blessed in the land.
Liturgist: The Lord sustains the weak and lifts them up.
Congregation: The Lord turns suffering into healing
and meets us with mercy.
All: Let us come before God with grateful hearts,
to worship the One who cares for the poor
and sustains us all. Amen.

Prayer of Confession (based on Matthew 8:20 & Isaiah 58:7) Pastor Luis

Liturgist: God calls us to share our bread with the hungry
and to bring the homeless poor into our house.
Trusting in God’s mercy, let us confess our sin.

All: Merciful God,
we follow a Savior who knew homelessness,
yet we have been slow to open our doors and our hearts.
You call us to share our bread with the hungry
and to shelter those without a home,
but we cling to comfort and security.

(Time of silence for self-examination and personal confession.)

Liturgist: Forgive us for passing by those in need,
for protecting what we have instead of sharing it,
and for failing to see Christ in the vulnerable.

All: Renew us with compassion,
that our lives may reflect your justice and mercy.
Amen.

Assurance of Pardon Pastor Luis

Liturgist: In Jesus Christ, we are forgiven and restored.
All: Thanks be to God!
In Christ, we are forgiven and sent to love.
Amen.
