We are gathered in the name of Jesus.
He is within our midst.

The peace of The lord be with you
And also with you.

Let us offer one another a sign of peace.
{The Peace}

The earth is the Lord’s,
and the fullness thereof;
the world,
and they that dwell therein.

Much loved in Christ, Let us therefore examine ourselves and repent of our sins.

Have mercy on us, O God, according to your unfailing love; according to your great compassion blot out my transgressions.
Wash away all our iniquity and cleanse us from our sin.
For we know our transgressions, and our sin is always before us.
Restore to us the joy of our salvation and grant us a willing spirit, to sustain us.

God, the Father of mercies, through the death and resurrection of His Son has reconciled the world to Himself and sent the Holy Spirit among us for the forgiveness of sins who is faithful and just to forgive and cleanse from all unrighteousness those who repent, give you pardon and peace, from your sins in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.

Amen

Lift up your hearts
We lift them to The lord

It is a good thing to give thanks unto the LORD
And to sing praises unto the name of the most high.

Amen, therefore with angels and archangel’s and with all the company of Heaven we praise his name saying,
Holy, holy, holy lord God of power and might
Heaven and Earth are full of your glory.
Hosanna in the highest.

Lift up your heads, O you gates; and be lifted up, everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.

Who is this King of glory?

The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle.

Lift up your heads, O you gates; and be lifted up, everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.

Who is this King of glory?

The LORD of hosts, he is the King of glory.

And as we eat this bread and drink this cup we proclaim his death until he comes.

Lord we pray that you mercifully to accept our praise and thanksgiving
and, with your Word and Holy Spirit,
to bless us, your servants, and these your own gifts of bread and wine;
that we and all who share in the + body and blood of your Son
may be filled with Heavenly peace and joy
and, receiving the forgiveness of sin,
may be + sanctified in soul and body,
and have our portion with all your saints

Amen
