SlideSet: Liturgy: Easter - Confession

Jesus Christ, risen Master and triumphant Lord,
we come to you in sorrow for our sins,
and confess to you our weakness and unbelief.

We have lived by our own strength,
and not by the power of your resurrection.
In your mercy, forgive us.
Hear us and help us.

We have lived by the light of our own eyes,
faithless and not believing.
In your mercy, forgive us.
Hear us and help us.

We have lived for this world alone,
and doubted our home in heaven.
In your mercy, forgive us.
Hear us and help us.

May the God of love and power
forgive you and free you from your sins,
heal and strengthen you by his Spirit,
and raise you to new life in Christ our Lord.
Amen.

Liturgy: Gloria in Excelsis

Glory to God in the highest,
and peace to his people on earth.
Lord God, heavenly King,
almighty God and Father,
we worship you, we give you thanks,

we praise you for your glory.
Lord Jesus Christ, only Son of the Father,
Lord God, Lamb of God,
you take away the sin of the world:
have mercy on us;

you are seated at the right hand of the Father:
receive our prayer.
For you alone are the Holy One,
you alone are the Lord,
you alone are the Most High, Jesus Christ,

with the Holy Spirit,
in the glory of God the Father.
Amen.

Easter Day

Lord of all life and power,
who through the mighty resurrection of your Son
overcame the old order of sin and death
to make all things new in him:

grant that we, being dead to sin
and alive to you in Jesus Christ,
may reign with him in glory;
to whom with you and the Holy Spirit

be praise and honour, glory and might,
now and in all eternity.

SlideSet: Liturgy: Easter - Affirmation of Faith

Let us declare our faith
in the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Christ died for our sins
in accordance with the Scriptures; he was buried;

he was raised to life on the third day
in accordance with the Scriptures;
afterwards he appeared to his followers,
and to all the apostles:

this we have received,
and this we believe. Amen.
1 Corinthians 15.3-7

Liturgy: Prayers of Intercession

Lord, in your mercy
hear our prayer.

Merciful Father,
accept these prayers
for the sake of your Son,
our Saviour Jesus Christ.
Amen.

SlideSet: Liturgy: Easter - Renewal of Baptismal Vows

As we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus, we remember that we have died and risen with him in baptism, so that we may share his new life in the family of his Church.

And so we renew the promises made at our baptism, affirming our allegiance to Christ.
Therefore I ask:

Do you reject the devil and all rebellion against God?
I reject them.

Do you renounce the deceit and corruption of evil?
I renounce them.

Do you repent of the sins that separate us from God and neighbour?
I repent of them.

Do you turn to Christ as Saviour?
I turn to Christ.

Do you submit to Christ as Lord?
I submit to Christ.

Do you come to Christ, the way, the truth and the life?
I come to Christ.

Almighty God, we thank you for our fellowship with all those who have been baptised in your name.

Keep us faithful to our baptism, and so make us ready for that day when the whole creation shall be made perfect in your Son, our Saviour Jesus Christ. Amen.

SlideSet: Liturgy: Easter - Introduction to The Peace

The risen Christ came and stood among his disciples and said ‘Peace be with you’.
And they rejoiced when they saw the Lord.

The peace of the risen Lord be always with you
and also with you.
Let us offer one another a sign of peace.

SlideSet: Liturgy: Easter - Offertory Prayer

The free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
By His mercy we present our whole lives and gifts to God as a living sacrifice.

SlideSet: Liturgy: Easter - Eucharistic Prayer

The Lord is here.
His Spirit is with us.

Lift up your hearts.
We lift them to the Lord.
Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
It is right to give thanks and praise.

It is truly right and just, our duty and our salvation,
always and everywhere to give you thanks,
holy Father, almighty and eternal God.

For Christ has risen from the tomb
and scattered the darkness of death
with light that will not fade.

The risen Lord walks with your gathered people, unfolds for us your word,
and makes himself known in the breaking of the bread.

And so, with choirs of angels and with all the heavenly host, we proclaim your glory and join their unending song of praise:

Holy, holy, holy is the Lord,
holy is the Lord God almighty.

Who was, and is, and is to come,
Holy, holy, holy is the Lord.

Accept our praises, heavenly Father,
through your Son our Saviour Jesus Christ,
and as we follow his example
and obey his command,

grant that by the power of your Holy Spirit
these gifts of bread and wine
may be to us his body and his blood;

who, in the same night that he was betrayed,
took bread and gave you thanks;
he broke it and gave it to his disciples, saying:

Take, eat; this is my body which is given for you;
do this in remembrance of me.

In the same way, after supper he took the cup and gave you thanks; he gave it to them, saying:

Drink this, all of you; this is my blood of the new covenant, which is shed for you and for many for the forgiveness of sins.
Do this, as often as you drink it,
in remembrance of me.

Therefore, heavenly Father,
we remember his offering of himself made once for all upon the cross;
we proclaim his mighty resurrection and glorious ascension;

we look for the coming of your kingdom,
and with this bread and this cup we make the memorial of Christ your Son our Lord.

Great is the mystery of faith:
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus is the Lord,
Jesus is the Lord who has saved us.

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus is the Lord,
Jesus is the Lord who has saved us.

He died; he rose; he’ll come again;
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus is the Lord.

Accept through him, our great high priest,
this our sacrifice of thanks and praise,
and as we eat and drink these holy gifts
in the presence of your divine majesty,

renew us by your Spirit,
inspire us with your love
and unite us in the body of your Son,
Jesus Christ our Lord.

Through him, and with him, and in him,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
with all who stand before you in earth and heaven,
we worship you, Father almighty,
in songs of everlasting praise:

Glory, glory, glory to the Lord,
glory to the Lord God almighty.

Who was, and is, and is to come,
glory, glory, glory to the Lord.

SlideSet: Liturgy: Easter - The Giving of Communion

Alleluia! Christ our passover is sacrificed for us.
Therefore let us keep the feast. Alleluia!
Come, then, to the table of the Lord, with faith and thanksgiving.

SlideSet: Liturgy: Easter - Prayer After Communion

God of our salvation,
we thank you for our communion
with the risen Christ
and with all who love him
in earth and heaven.

Strengthen us by his presence,
so that we can serve you faithfully all our days;
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
