Mothering Sunday Service 2021
MOTHERING SUNDAY
Holy Communion
GREETING:
The Lord be with you.
And also with you.
As a mother comforts a child so will I comfort you, says the Lord. Isaiah 66.13
HYMN:
CONFESSION
Let us confess our sins to God our Father
Almighty
and merciful God we have sinned against you, in thought, word and
deed. We have not loved you with all our heart. We have not loved
others as our Saviour Christ loves us. We are truly sorry.
In your
mercy forgive what we have been,
help us to amend what we are, and
direct what we shall be; that we may delight in your will
and walk
in your ways; through Jesus Christ our Saviour. Amen.
The priest says
Through
the Cross of Christ, may God have mercy on you,
pardon you, and
set you free. Know that you are forgiven and be at peace. May God
strengthen you in all goodness,
and keep you in life eternal.
Amen.
COLLECT FOR MOTHERING SUNDAY

compassion, whose Son Jesus Christ, the child of Mary, shared the
life of a home in Nazareth,

Strengthen us in our daily living that in joy
and in sorrow
we may know the power of your presence to bind
together and to heal; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

and we look for the coming of his kingdom.
Accept through him, ……….all honour and glory are yours, Almighty Father, for ever and ever. Amen.

bread which we break is a sharing in the body of Christ. We
being many are one body,
for we all share in the one bread.
