Our Affirmation of Faith
We believe in God the creator of us all, whose desire for
diversity is seen in the rainbow of humanity. With unrelenting
passion God Seeks to be in relationship with all of us.
We believe in Jesus the Christ, who is the embodiment of
God’s redeeming grace; And in the Holy Spirit through whom
that grace continues its restoring work.
We believe in the Church. It is the body of Christ on the earth
today. As ministers of this church, we are all called like Jesus,
to heal, to deliver, to teach, and to serve.
We believe that together we can change the world,
in our time and for all time Amen!
Affirmation Chorus: In This Place
In this place, There’s joy that I can’t explain
In this place, There’s healing for all my pain
There is love unlike I’ve ever known
Everybody here makes me feel at home
As we gather here, I know I’m not alone
I feel God’s presence, Moving in this place..
YOU ARE GOOD
Lord, You are good and Your mercy endureth forever.
Lord, You are good and Your mercy endureth forever.

We worship You! Hallelujah, Hallelujah!

We worship You! Hallelujah, Hallelujah!
We worship You for who You are. You are good!
You are good all the time, all the time You are good
GOD OF ALL MY DAYS
I came to You with my heart in pieces
And found you God with healing in your hands
I turned to You, put everything behind me
And found the God who makes all things new
I looked to You, drowning in my questions,
And found the God who holds all wisdom
And I trusted You and stepped out on the ocean
You caught my hand among the waves
Chorus: ‘Cause You’re the God of all my days, Each step I take You make a way.
And I will give You all my praise. My seasons change, You stay the same.
You’re the God of all my days (Pause)
I ran from You, and wandered in the shadows
And found a God who relentlessly pursues
I hid from You, haunted by my failure,
And found the God whose grace still covers me
I fell on You when I was at my weakest
And found the God, the lifter of my head
And I’ve worshiped You. And felt You right beside me
You’re the reason that I sing (chorus)
In my worry, God You are my stillness, In my searching, God You are my answers
In my blindness, God You are my vision, In my bondage, God You are my freedom
In my weakness, God You are my power, You’re the reason that I sing (chorus)
In my blindness, God You are my vision. In my bondage,
God You are my freedom… All my days
I came to You with my heart in pieces
And found you God with healing in your hands
I turned to You, put everything behind me
And found the God who makes all things new
I looked to You, drowning in my questions,
And found the God who holds all wisdom
And I trusted You and stepped out on the ocean
You caught my hand among the waves
Chorus: ‘Cause You’re the God of all my days, Each step I take You make a way.
And I will give You all my praise. My seasons change, You stay the same.
You’re the God of all my days (Pause)
I ran from You, and wandered in the shadows
And found a God who relentlessly pursues
I hid from You, haunted by my failure,
And found the God whose grace still covers me
I fell on You when I was at my weakest
And found the God, the lifter of my head
And I’ve worshiped You. And felt You right beside me
You’re the reason that I sing (chorus)
In my worry, God You are my stillness, In my searching, God You are my answers
In my blindness, God You are my vision, In my bondage, God You are my freedom
In my weakness, God You are my power, You’re the reason that I sing (chorus)
In my blindness, God You are my vision. In my bondage,
God You are my freedom… All my days
I AM NOT ALONE
Verse1 When I walk through deep waters, I know that You will be with me
When I’m standing in the fire I will not be overcome
Through the valley of the shadow, I will not fear
Chorus I am not alone. I am not alone
You will go before me, You will never leave me
I am not alone, I am not alone
You will go before me, You will never leave me
Verse2 In the midst of deep sorrow, I see Your light is breaking through
The dark of night will not overtake me, I am pressing into You
Lord, You fight my every battle, Oh, and I will not fear (Chorus)
Vamp You amaze me, Redeem me, You call me as Your own (repeat 3x)
You’re my strength, You’re my defender, You’re my refuge in the storm
Through these trials, You’ve always been faithful, You bring healing to my soul
Repeat chorus 3x

TODAY’S SCRIPTURE:
He used the apostles and prophets for the foundation. Now
he’s using you, fitting you in brick by brick, stone by stone, with
Christ Jesus as the cornerstone that holds all the parts together.
We see it taking shape day after day- a holy temple built by God,
all of us built into it, a temple in which God is quite at home.
EPHESIANS 2:14-22
Make a clean break with all cutting, backbiting, profane talk. Be
gentle with one another, sensitive. Forgive one another as quickly
and thoroughly as God in Christ forgave you.
EPHESIANS 4:31-32
In Christ’s family there can be no division into Jew and non-Jew,
slave and free, male and female. Among us you are all equal.
That is, we are all in a common relationship with Jesus Christ.
Also, since you are Christ’s family, then you are Abraham’s
famous “descendant,” heirs according to the covenant promises.
GALATIANS 3:28
