If you are not able to partake in the Lord’s Supper today, please use this time to meditate on one of the following prayers.

‍
Prayer for Those Searching for Truth.
Lord Jesus, you claim to be the way,
the truth, and the life. Grant that I might be undaunted by the cost of
following you as I consider the reasons for doing so. If what you claim is
true, please guide me, teach me, and open me to the reality of who you
are. Give me an understanding of you that is coherent, convincing, and
that leads to the life you promise. Amen.

‍
Prayer of Belief.
‍Lord Jesus Christ, I admit that I am weaker and more
sinful than I ever dared admit, but through you I am more loved and
accepted than I ever dared hope. I thank you for paying my debt on the
cross, taking what I deserved in order to offer me complete forgiveness.
Knowing that you have been raised from the dead, I turn from my sins
and receive you as my Savior and Lord. Amen.
‍
Prayer of Commitment.*
‍ Lord Jesus, you have called us to follow you in
baptism and in a life of committed discipleship through membership in
your church. Grant that I may take the necessary steps to be one with
your people, and live in the fullness of your Spirit. Amen.

*If you are saying this prayer for the first time today, please share with a church leader up front, or let one of the pastors know.
