Faith family! In an effort to equip us for our Sunday Gatherings, the Elders thought it would be beneficial to provide us with the prayers of confession we recite on Sunday morning prior to our corporate use so that we can all be aware of what we are confessing before we gather. Here’s our Corporate Prayer of Confession for the month of October! May God be gracious to us! Soli Deo Gloria!

Almighty God,

since you have delayed with so much patience

the punishments which we deserve

and daily draw on ourselves,

we ask that you would guide us by your grace.

So that we may not indulge ourselves in our sin

but carefully consider how often

and in how many different ways

we have provoked your just wrath against us.

May we learn humbly to present ourselves to you for pardon,

and with true repentance implore your mercy.

With all our heart we desire to submit ourselves to you,

whether according to your infinite goodness chastise us,

or according to your infinite goodness pardon us.

Let our condition be ever blessed,

not by flattering ourselves in our apathy,

but by finding you to be our kind and bountiful Father,

reconciled to us by and in your only-begotten Son.

For it is the name of your son, Jesus, we pray, Amen.
