Elder Mike Long
Prayer of Confession (in unison, followed by silent prayer) God of heaven, God of earth, You are in all places and in all things. How could we hide from You? Why would we hide from You when, by grace, Your forgiveness is total? Forgive us when we forget this. Help us to stay connected with Your goodness for it gives us new life. Raise us up in Christ so we might turn back to Your way and be set free. (silent prayer) Amen.
