Theme: Institution of the Passover

Call to Worship
Pastor: We share in this sacred feast to celebrate our Lord's redeeming love.
People: We rejoice in our deliverance from sin granted by the blood of the Lamb.
Pastor: We celebrate as Christians, because our Lord delivers us from sin, just as God delivered the Israelites from Egypt.
People: God's deliverance finally brought them to the promised land. God is delivering us, too, to the promised life of redemption in Christ. Praise his name!

Collect
O God, our great Deliverer: You have found us in bondage to sin, and have sent your Son to deliver us. Receive us as your children, by faith in the blood of Christ, shed on our behalf; that we may enter your promised salvation. In our Savior's name we pray. Amen.
