Call to Worship
Sing the praises of God, raise a psalm to the hallowed name... Be joyful, and exult before the Parent of the parentless, the Companion of the lonely, the One who makes a home for us all.

Prayer of Confession
Honest God, it is sometimes easier for us to be devious than straightforward. We may not tell an outright lie but may avoid disclosing the whole truth. When we are discovered as not completely trustworthy, our relationships become more cautious and uncomfortable. Forgive any pretense at being what we have not yet become. We want to have the reputation of being both fair and generous before we have fully achieved these virtues. Forgive such hypocrisy and help us to be more like your truthful and true Son, Jesus Christ. Amen.
