Almighty God,
To whom all hearts are open,

That we may perfectly love you
And worthily magnify your holy name;
Through Christ our Lord.
Amen
Prayers of Penitence
Jesus Christ, risen master and triumphant Lord, we come to you in sorrow for our sins, and confess to your our weakness and unbelief.
Silence
Loving God, maker of all that is, we come before you now in all our weakness.
We have turned away from your goodness and forgotten your love for us.
We have not kept your command to love you with our whole selves.
Forgive us when we forget you.
Forgive us when we fail you.
Give us grace to face our mistakes and to try again.
We ask this in the name of Jesus Christ our Saviour. Amen

The Profession of Faith
I believe in God, the Father almighty,
creator of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
born of the Virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried;
he descended to the dead.
On the third day he rose again;
he ascended into heaven,
he is seated at the right hand of the Father,
and he will come to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy catholic Church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and the life everlasting.
Amen.

he opened the way to life eternal
and by his ascension,
gave us the sure hope
that where he is we may also be.

he opened wide his arms on the cross.
On the night before he died,
he came to supper with his friends
and, taking bread, he gave you thanks.
