Elder Rebecca Cress
Prayer of Confession (in unison, followed by silent prayer) O God, we come to You today, confessing that in our efforts to bear witness to the gospel, we have too often spoken when we ought to have listened, and remained silent when You were ready for us to speak. As we learn from the early apostles, help us to be more attentive, first to Your Spirit, and then to the needs of those we encounter. Teach us how to wait with patience. Then, when the moment is right, may we share with confidence and grace what we have seen and heard. (silent prayer) Amen. Affirmation of Grace *Response Glory to God (Children please come forward)
