Affirmation of Faith
I believe in the living God,
the parent of all humankind
who creates and sustains
the universe in power and in love.
I believe in Jesus Christ
God incarnate on earth
Who showed us by his worsds and work,
Suffering with others, conquest of death,
What human life ought to be
And what God is like
I believe that the spirit of God
Is present with us now and always,
And can be experienced in prayer,
In the Word, the sacraments,
The community of the Church
All that we do. Amen
Confession
Lord God Almighty,
Frogive us, your children, our lack of confidence in you, our lack of hope in your reign, our lack of faith in your presence, our lack of trust in your mercy.
Forgive your church, its wealth among the poor, its fear among the unjust, and its cowardice among the oppressed.
Restore us to your covenant with your people; bring us to true repentance; teach us to accept the sacrifice of Christ; make us strong with the comfort of your Holy Spirit.
Break us where we are proud, make us we are weak, shame us when trust ourselves, name us where we have lost ourselves.
Amen.
Lord’s Prayer
(Composed by Reverend James Theophilus Appavoo)
Vanathila Vazhugira Pethavere samy
Um per velangavenum samy Viduthala vara venum
Needhiyatra atchi venam Pethavere samy
Um nemayulla atchivenum Uthamare samy
Vanathila unathusitham kodi Parappadhu pola
Indha olagathilum nadakka Venum Pethavere samy
Othumaya oru oulyil Sendhu thinnum soru
Nittam nittham kedaikkanuame Pethavere samy
Kutthangala nee mannicha Pethavare samy
Appdy mattavanga ktthangala Mannichittom samy
Sethukula madinjazhiyum Natthu pola nanga
Pei sothanayil veezhhndhidama Katthiduvai samy
Atchudan adhikaramum Pethavare samy
Keerthiyellam ungalukke Thandhidurom samy
Aam amen aam amen Pethavare samy
Anadhiyaga amen amen uthamare samy
gurukulam
