Acclamation
We declare our faith
in the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ:
Christ died for our sins
in accordance with the Scriptures;
he was buried;
he was raised to life on the third day
in accordance with the Scriptures;
afterwards he appeared to his followers,
and to all the apostles:
this we have received,
and this we believe.
Amen.
¶ Prayers
Penitence
God of mercy,
we acknowledge that we are all sinners.
We turn from the wrong that we have thought and said and done,
and are mindful of all that we have failed to do.
For the sake of Jesus, who died for us,
forgive us for all that is past,
and help us to live each day
in the light of Christ our Lord.
May almighty God have mercy on us,
forgive us our sins,
and bring us to everlasting life,
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Intercession
Lord God,
through your grace we are your people;
through your Son you have redeemed us;
in your Spirit you have made us as your own.

we give thanks for his long life,
for the love that he received from you
and showed among us.
We recall with gratitude his devotion to duty,

and his support for many causes.
Now we pray that he may know the joys of your everlasting kingdom,
where sorrow and pain are no more.
Lord, receive our praise
and hear our prayer.
We pray for the Church …
Make our hearts respond to your love.

and hear our prayer.

Make our voices one with all your people in heaven and on earth.
Lord of life, hear our prayer,

Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,

For the kingdom, the power,
and the glory are yours
now and for ever.

Lord God our Father,
through our Saviour Jesus Christ

and raise us to new life in your love,

by the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ.
