WELCOME & INVOCATION
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..
SING AND CELEBRATE:
1. WHO YOU SAY I AM
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
3. BROKEN VESSELS (AMAZING GRACE)
Empty handed, But not forsaken. I’ve been set free, I’ve been set free
Chorus: Amazing grace, How sweet the sound
That saved a one like me, I once was lost
But now I’m found, Was blind but now I see
Oh I can see you now, Oh I can see the love in Your eyes
Laying yourself down, Raising up the broken to life (pause)
Verse: You take our failure. you take our weakness,
You set your treasure, in jars of clay
So take this heart, Lord, I’ll be your vessel, the world to see, your life in me
(Repeat Chorus (3x) Acapella on last)
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE:
(Jesus speaking) The thief’s purpose is to steal and kill and destroy. My purpose is to give them a rich and satisfying life. JOHN 10:10
And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ PHILLIPPIANS 4:7
I thank God, whom I serve, as my ancestors did, with a clear conscience, as night and day I constantly remember you in my prayers. Recalling your tears, I long to see you, so that I may be filled with joy. I am reminded of your sincere faith, which first lived in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice and, I am persuaded, now lives in you also. For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you through the laying on of my hands. For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind. 2 TIMOTHY 1:3-8
