Turn Hearts & Minds Upon Jesus

Turn your hearts and
minds upon Jesus!

We turn now to God and
    to the one who lived among us,
       who taught us to avoid idols,
    to live lives of faithfulness,
       of loving compassion & grace.

Confess and release anything that
prevents you from responding to
the movement of the Holy Spirit!

In the silence of this room,
   we confess we have failed
      to live as God demands. 

[SILENCE]

Having confessed that which keeps us
apart from one another and
from God, let us worship.

With open hearts and minds,
    & assured of by divine grace,
        we are ready for worship.
