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..
FREE FOR ALL
Rivers rich in mercy beckon, Everyone who thirsts is welcome
All who hunger freely come, Bread of life for everyone
Chorus Free for all, Free for all, Over every limitation, Free for all
Where the spirit of the Lord is, There is freedom, free for all
Where the spirit of the Lord is, There is freedom, free for all
Free for all (pause)
We’re proclaiming freedom to the nations,
Stand and see your full salvation
Rivers in the desert, clouds are forming
Celebrate this free out-pouring (chorus)
Free for all, Free for all, Over every limitation, Free for all
Where the spirit of the Lord is, There is freedom, free for all
Where the spirit of the Lord is, There is freedom, free for all
Holy Spirit rise within us, Bring your freedom, free for all
Holy Spirit rise within us, Bring your freedom, free for all
Free for all…. Who the Son set free, is free indeed
Who the Son set free, is free indeed
Who the Son set free, is free indeed
Who the Son set free, is free indeed

BROKEN VESSELS (AMAZING GRACE)
Verse 1: All these pieces, Broken and scattered
In mercy gathered, Mended and whole
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 2: 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)
