Prayer of Forgiveness

All-loving and forgiving God,

give us the courage

to see ourselves with humility and honesty.

Open our hearts to receive

your forgiveness

and healing love.

Then, as you forgive us,

help us to show mercy and kindness to others.

Help us stand for what is right

and speak out against prejustice,

so that by our words and our example,

we may give witness to your saving power.
