10am worship-communion SUNDAY

Let It Start With Me
In the streets of every village
Every city's soaring tower
Empty people live in darkness
Every minute every hour
Hear the cry of desperation
From a billion broken hearts
With a need so great
Where do we even start

Chorus:
Let it start with me
Open up my eyes
Fill my heart with your compassion
Free my mind from all distractions
Use my hands
To set the captive free
Move my feet to follow after You
Lord change the world and let it start with me

Lord You've given the orders
There's a place for every one
I don't want to miss my mission
In the plan that you've begun
You have promised to go with me
To the edges of it all
Change everything that
Keeps me from Your call

Take my life and all that I have called my own
Everything I am is Yours alone

Welcome & Call to Worship: Pastor Jesse Bolinder
Leader: Jesus offers a new-old commandment, that we should love each other.
People: Remain in God love. 

With the incredible power and the unfathomable depth of God's love for us we can we must love one another.
Remain in God’s love. 

And it is in this our love for one another that the world will know whom and what we worship. 
Remain in God’s love. 

Come, children of God, let us love one another. Let us…
Remain in God’s love 

We Are One In The Spirit
We are one in the Spirit, we are one in the Lord,
We are one in the Spirit, we are one in the Lord,
And we pray that all unity may one day be restored.

Chorus:
And they’ll know we are Christians by our love, by our love,
Yes, they’ll know we are Christians by our love.

We will walk with each other, we will walk hand in hand,
We will walk with each other, we will walk hand in hand,
And together we’ll spread the news that God is in our land.

We will work with each other, we will work side by side,
We will work with each other, we will work side by side,
And we’ll guard each one’s dignity and save each one’s pride.

All praise to the Father, from whom all things come,
And all praise to Christ Jesus, his only Son,
And all praise to the Spirit, who makes us one. 

Opening Prayer & The Lord’s Prayer: Pastor Jay Fast
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 sins, as we forgive those who sin against us. And lead us not in to temptation but deliver us from evil. For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.

Bind Us Together
Chorus:
Bind us together Lord
Bind us together with cords, that cannot be broken
Bind us together Lord, bind us together Lord
Bind us together with love

There is only one God. There is only one King
There is only one body, that is why we can sing

Made for the glory of God, purchased by His precious Son
Born with the right to be clean, for Jesus the vict’ry has won

You are the fam’ly of God, You are the promise divine
You are God's chosen desire, You are the glorious new wine

SCRIPTURE READING: John 15:9-17

9 As the Father has loved me, so I have loved you; abide in my love. 10 If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commandments and abide in his love. 11 I have said these things to you so that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be complete. 

12 “This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. 13 No one has greater love than this, to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. 14 You are my friends if you do what I command you. 15 I do not call you servants[a] any longer, because the servant[b] does not know what the master is doing; but I have called you friends, because I have made known to you everything that I have heard from my Father. 16 You did not choose me but I chose you. And I appointed you to go and bear fruit, fruit that will last, so that the Father will give you whatever you ask him in my name. 17 I am giving you these commands so that you may love one another.
