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
MORE OF YOU JESUS
I’ve touched the hem of your garment
And I have felt the leading of Your hand
But today my eyes look much higher
To see the face of the great I Am. (REPEAT)
More of You, Jesus, More of Your face
More of Your glory in this place. (REPEAT)
BREATHE
This is the air I breathe. This is the air I breathe.
Your holy presence living in me.
This is my daily bread. This is my daily bread.
Your very word spoken to me.
And I… I’m desperate for you. And I… I’m lost without you. (repeat all)
And I… I’m desperate for you. And I… I’m lost without you.
I’m lost without you. I’m lost without you.
I’m desperate for you. I’m desperate for you..

TODAY’S SCRIPTURE:
“I am the Vine; you are the branches. The one who remains in Me
and I in them bears much fruit, for [otherwise]apart from Me [that
is, cut off from vital union with Me] you can do nothing. I have
loved you just as the Father has loved Me; remain in My love [and
do not doubt My love for you]. If you keep My commandments and
obey My teaching, you will remain in My love, just as I have kept
My Father’s commandments and remain in His love. I have told
you these things so that My joy and delight may be in you, and that
your joy may be made full and complete and overflowing. This is My
commandment, that you love and unselfishly seek the best for one
another, just as I have loved you.” JOHN 15:5, 9-12
“For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we
be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all
made to drink into one Spirit.” 1 CORINTHIANS 12:13
But I fear, lest somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness,
so your minds may be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
2 CORINTHIANS 11:3
