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..
I AM A FRIEND OF GOD
Verse: Who am I that you are mindful of me. That you hear me when I call
Is it true that you are thinking of me
How you love me, it’s amazing (Who am I Lord) repeat
Chorus: I am a friend of God, I am a friend of God
I am a friend of God, You call me friend (repeat chorus)

It’s amazing. It’s amazing. It’s amazing. (repeat chorus 2x)
Bridge: God Almighty, Lord of Glory, You have called me friend
(4TIMES…FIRST TWO UNISUN) (repeat chorus3x)
You call me friend. You call me friend. You call me friend
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 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
I
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE:
But I will sing of your strength,
in the morning I will sing of your love;
for you are my fortress,
my refuge in times of trouble.
You are my strength, I sing praise to you;
you, God, are my fortress,
my God on whom I can rely. PSALMS 59:16-17
But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow
weary, they will walk and not be faint. ISAIAH 40:31
Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation,
by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests
to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding,
will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
PHILIPPIANS 4:6-7
