How to Pray Morning Prayer: Sentences and Confession #morningprayer #confession #worship

As you begin Morning Prayer, you notice some Bible verses at the beginning followed by a confession of sin. Why are these there? What is their purpose? How do they help to guide us into our time of worshiping our God? Father Jeremiah explains the beginning of Morning Prayer so that we all might better understand what we are doing and more thoroughly be changed by the Holy Spirit.

Father Jeremiah's walk through of Morning Prayer comes from the 2019 Book of Common Prayer, which Grace Anglican uses in all their worship together. This is the fifth part in a multi-part series. You can find all parts here:

Father Jeremiah is the rector (full time parish priest) of Grace Anglican Church in Gastonia, NC. Grace Anglican is a church that is intentionally liturgical and desires to show people the beauty of the liturgy in daily life. We want people to learn how to serve Jesus through the various vocations he has placed each of us in. These vocations are the God-given places of our lives where we can truly love and serve our neighbors. The liturgy connects to our vocations by shaping us to see and love the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in our serving those we encounter in our daily lives.

Grace Anglican is a multi-generational, growing congregation that thrives on building relationships with all those who enter her doors. We worship every Sunday at 10am at 800 Robinson Rd, Gastonia, NC. Come and visit and discover the joy of liturgical worship and being sent to love and serve in our vocations.
