Opening Prayer

Glory, glory to God in the highest, and peace to his people on earth.  Lord God, heavenly King, almighty God and Father we worship you, we give you thanks, We praise you for your glory.  Lord God, Lamb of God, You take away the sin of the world:  Have mercy on us; You are seated at the right hand of the Father: Receive our prayer. For you alone are the Holy One, You alone are the Lord, You alone are the most High, Jesus Christ, with the Holy Spirit in the glory of God, the Father.  Amen.         
-The Gloria (2nd century)


(Be still before God)

Prayer of the Bible

God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.  Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea.  
-Psalm 46:1-2


(Free expression of praise and thanksgiving to God)

Confession of Sin

Search me thoroughly, O God, and know my heart! Try me and know my thoughts!  And see if there is any wicked or hurtful way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.  
-Psalm 139


(Time of silence for confession of sin)

The Words of Jesus

“Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock.  And everyone who hears these words of mine and does not do them will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand.  And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell, and great was the fall of it.” And when Jesus finished these sayings, the crowds were astonished at his teaching, for he was teaching them as one who had authority, and not as their scribes.  
-Matthew 7:24-29



(Think deeply on these life-giving words of Jesus)

Prayer for Ourselves and Others

God delights in genuine prayers.
-Proverbs 15:8b The Message


(Time to bring before God our own needs and the needs of others)

Closing Prayer

Dear Jesus, help me to spread Your fragrance everywhere I go. Flood my soul with Your spirit and love. Penetrate and possess my whole being so utterly that all my life may only be a radiance of You. Shine through me and be so in me that every soul I come in contact with may feel Your presence in my soul. Let them look up and see no longer me but only Jesus. Stay with me and then I shall begin to shine as you shine, so to shine as to be a light to others.
-Mother Teresa (1910-1997)


Go, sent by the Father into the world to love & serve in the name of Jesus, empowered by the Holy Spirit
