WE GATHER TOGETHER FOR WORSHIP

Hello

The Plans  
When I am anxious, when I am afraid  
I take it to God, I call on His name  
If the mover of mountains  
Is listening to me  
Why should I worry  
Why should I fear anything  

For I know the plans He has for me  
Yes I know the plans He has for me  
For my good, to give me a hope and a future  

When I am waiting for His promise to come  
Sometimes He’s silent but I’m never alone  
He walks in the valley  
He quiets the storm  
He stands in the fire  
So why should I fear anymore  

All my life, all I’ve seen  
Your endless love surrounding me  
With ev’ry breath, I will be found  
By You  

If I set sail or spread my wings  
And find myself on the farthest sea  
You’re waiting there  
And I will be found  
By You, I will be found by You  

WE HEAR GOD'S STORY IN OUR LIVES

Ministry Moment/ Kelsey Hendry

Scripture Reading: Acts 16: 6-10 / Michele Binkley  
They went through the region of Phrygia and Galatia, having been forbidden by the Holy Spirit to speak the word in Asia. When they had come opposite Mysia, they attempted to go into Bithynia, but the Spirit of Jesus did not allow them; so, passing by Mysia, they went down to Troas. During the night Paul had a vision: there stood a man of Macedonia pleading with him and saying, "Come over to Macedonia and help us." When he had seen the vision, we immediately tried to cross over to Macedonia, being convinced that God had called us to proclaim the good news to them.   

Sermon/  Rev. Dr. Bettie Hightower

Made For More  
I know who I am ‘cause I know who You are  
The cross of salvation was only the start  
Now I am chosen, I’m free and forgiven  
I have a future and it’s worth the living  

‘Cause I wasn’t made to be tendin’ a grave  
I was called by name  
Born and raised back to life again  
I was made for more  
So why would I make a bed in my shame  
When a fountain of grace is running my way  
I know I am Yours, and I was made for more  

And I know who I am, ‘cause I know who You are  
The cross of salvation was only the start  
Now I am chosen, free and forgiven  
I have a future, and it’s worth the livin’  

Hallelujah, You called out my name   
So I’ll sing out Your praise  
Hallelujah, You buried my past  
And I’m not going back

WE OFFER OUR PRAYERS TO GOD

Time Of Prayer

The Lord’s Prayer  
Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil. For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.  

 Affirmation Of Faith 
I believe in God the Father Almighty  
Maker of heaven and earth  

And in Jesus Christ his only son our Lord  
Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,  
Born of the Virgin Mary,  
Suffered under Pontius Pilate,  
Was crucified, dead, and buried;  
The third day he rose from the dead;  
He ascended into heaven  
And sitteth at the right hand of God the Father Almighty  
From thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead.  

I believe in the Holy Spirit,  
The holy catholic church,  
The communion of saints,  
The forgiveness of sins,  
The resurrection of the body,  
And the life everlasting. Amen.  

WE GO OUT TO LIVE AS GOD'S PEOPLE

Thanks And Praise  
We are here together   
To lift our hearts as one  
We’re in our Father’s presence  
His Spirit is with us  

It is good to lift the name  
Of the Lord our God  
It is right to give Him thanks and praise  
For His heart is overflowing with love for us  
And His mercy we can never contain  

And each and ev’ry morning  
We’ll tell of His great love  
Of all His faithful mercies  
And all that He has done  

For who can match His kindness  
And who can count His works  
Oh let our praise continue  
‘Til evening draws in close  

Glory, honor, wisdom, pow’r and strength  
To our Savior, Jesus, worthy of all praise  

Benediction
