Goodness is stronger than evil
Love is stronger than hate
Light is stronger than darkness
Life is stronger than death.
Song “Thank you for cross”
Prayer of Confession
We celebrate your creation, your life, your death and resurrection, your interest in us. So to you we pray;
Lord bring new life where we are worn and tired, new love, where we have turned hard hearted, forgiveness, where we feel hurt and where we have wounded, and the joy and freedom of your Holy Spirit where we are the prisoners of ourselves. Amen.
The Lords Prayer in our own language
Matthew 28
11 While they were going, some of the guard went into the city and told the chief priests everything that had happened. 12 After the priests had assembled with the elders, they devised a plan to give a large sum of money to the soldiers, 13 telling them, “You must say, ‘His disciples came by night and stole him away while we were asleep.’ 14 If this comes to the governor’s ears, we will satisfy him and keep you out of trouble.” 15 So they took the money and did as they were directed. And this story is still told among the Jews to this day.
Blessing
May the God who shakes heaven and earth
Whom death could not contain
Who lives to disturb and heal us
Bless you with power to go forth
and proclaim the gospel. Amen
