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..
YOUR LOVE IS BEAUTIFUL
You surrounded me with your songs of praise, You have brought me to this place
Where your love and grace, move within my life, Now Your message is my light
Chorus: Your love is beautiful, Your love is beautiful, It’s the reason why I sing
All around the world, let the praise begin, All around the world, let the praise begin
(BREAK) I am planted here by the waters and I am living for the King
I have found my place in the house of God, This is where I’m meant to be
Chorus 2: Your love is beautiful, Your love is beautiful, It’s the reason why I sing
All around the world, let the praise begin, All around the world, let the praise begin
All around the world, let the praise begin, All around the world, let the praise begin
(Long break then repeat Chorus 2)
HOW GREAT IS OUR GOD
The splendor of the King, Clothed in majesty
Let all the earth rejoice, All the earth rejoice
He wraps himself in light, And darkness tries to hide
And trembles at his voice, And trembles at his voice.
CHORUS: How great is our God, SING with me
How great is our God, and all will see
How great, How great is our God
Age to age He stands, And time is in His Hands
Beginning and the End, Beginning and the End
The Godhead, Three in one, Father, Spirit, Son
The Lion and the Lamb, The Lion and the Lamb
THE MORE I SEEK YOU
Tammy: The more I seek you, the more I find you
The more I find you, the more I love you
Chorus: I wanna sit at your feet, drink from the cup in your hand.
Lay back against you and breathe, feel your heart beat
This love is so deep, it’s more than I can stand.
I melt in your peace, it’s overwhelming.
All: The more I seek you, the more I find you
The more I find you, the more I love you
(Repeat Chorus 2x followed by instrumental break)
Tammy: I wanna sit at your feet, drink from the cup in your hand
Lay back against you and breathe, feel your heart beat
All: This love is so deep, it’s more than I can stand.
I melt in your peace, it’s overwhelming.
Accapella: I wanna sit at your feet, drink from the cup in your hand
Lay back against you and breathe, feel your heart beat
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE:
“If someone else thinks they have reasons to put confidence in the
flesh, I have more: circumcised on the eighth day, of the people of
Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; in regard
to the law, a Pharisee; as for zeal, persecuting the church; as for
righteousness based on the law, faultless. But whatever were gains
to me I now consider loss for the sake of Christ. What is more,
I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of
knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things.
I consider them garbage, that I may gain Christ and be found in him,
not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law,
but that which is through faith in Christ—the righteousness that
comes from God on the basis of faith. I want to know Christ—yes,
to know the power of his resurrection and participation in his
sufferings, becoming like him in his death, Not that I have already
obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press
on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me.
Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken
hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining
toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize
for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.”PHILLIPIANS 3:4-14
