Allan Aunspaugh

(We extinguish one candle each Sunday of Lent, symbolizing our journey to the darkness of Good Friday.)

Unison Confession O God, our great shepherd, you tenderly gather us as lambs, carrying us with your all-embracing love. Yet, like sheep, we wander from you: following our own ways, ignoring your voice, distrusting your provisions. Forgive our stubborn rebellion, our hardened hearts, our lack of trust. Refresh us once again by your quiet waters of mercy and restore our souls by your redeeming love. Guide our paths, that we might follow you more closely. . . . [Silent confession] Through Jesus Christ, our good shepherd, we pray. Amen.
