Welcome and Announcements Proclamation of the Entrance into Jerusalem Matthew 2:1-11 Call to Worship Psalm 118:1-2, 19-23 Prayer of the Day Call to Confession Prayer of Confession Loving God, you rode a donkey and came in peace, humbled yourself and gave yourself for us. We confess our lack of humility. As you entered Jerusalem, the crowds shouted “Hosanna: ‘Save us now!’” On Good Friday they shouted “Crucify!” We confess our praise is often empty. We sing “Hosanna,” but cry “Crucify.” As the crowd laid their palms in front of you, you took no glory for yourself. We confess that we want to be accepted and take the easy way. We do not stay true to your will. Forgive us, Lord, and help us to follow in the way of obedience. Silent Prayer Assurance of Pardon Response “You Are Mine” refrain The Peace Peace. Jesus said to his disciples, Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled, and do not let them be afraid.
