Pastoral Prayer:

 

Corporate Confession of Truth

        Church, who is our shepherd?

The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. 

He makes me to lie down in green pastures;

He leads me beside the still waters. 

He restores my soul;

He leads me in the paths of righteousness For His name's sake. 

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,

I will fear no evil; For You are with me;

Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. 

You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;

You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs over. 

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me All the days of my life;

And I will dwell in the house of the LORD Forever.  Amen!    Psalm 23:1-6 NKJV
