Title	Reconcilliation
Date	Thursday 24th
Time	7:00pm
INTRODUCTORY RITES
Song/Psalm	Recreate Us Lord (Feargal King, Kingsfold)
Greeting	Many times along the way we fall into darkness. Tonight we heed God’s call to be healed and reconciled with him and with one another.
Opening Prayer	God, Help us to discover and name our failings; the true things that often are kept hidden from us; help us to see within ourselves the goodness, beauty and truth that we are usually so quick to see in others; the darkness which can gnaw away at our hearts, the pain that stands in the way of healing, the struggle which dazes is - keeps out footing off balance, and our sins of ignorance that arise from our fear. I call and sing to you - may your music help all of us cross the line over to you.
