Our Father, who is in heaven, hallowed be Your name.
Your kingdom come. Your 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 Yours is the kingdom, the power, and the glory forever. Amen.
The Assurance of Pardon
Jeremiah 31:34
And no longer shall each one teach his neighbor and each his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for they shall all know Me, from the least of them to the greatest, declares the Lord. For I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.”

Leader: What does the third petition mean?
People: “Your Will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven” means: Help us and all people to reject our own wills and to obey Your Will without any back talk. Your Will alone is good. Help us one and all to carry out the work we are called to, as willingly and faithfully as the angels in Heaven.
