WE CONFESS OUR FAITH
Confession of Faith  
 Belgic Confession, Article 17        

We believe that our good God,
by marvelous divine wisdom and goodness,
seeing that Adam and Eve had plunged themselves in this manner
into both physical and spiritual death
and made themselves completely miserable,
set out to find them,
though they,
trembling all over,
were fleeing from God.
And God comforted them,
promising to give them his Son,
born of a woman,
to crush the head of the serpent,
and to make them blessed.                                                        
 
THE LORD HEARS OUR PRAYERS
Congregational Prayer (concluded by the Lord’s Prayer in Unison)
 
Our Father who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. 
Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven.  
Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: 
For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen.
