The Chiming of the Hour We Gather Before God The Welcome and News of the Church The Prelude Musical Selections by Praise Band The Prayer of Invocation & Call to Worship L: There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit distributes them. P: I am fearfully and wonderfully made. L: Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good. P: I am fearfully and wonderfully made. L: To one there is given through the Spirit a message of wisdom, to another a message of knowledge by means of the same Spirit, P: I am fearfully and wonderfully made. L: To another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by that one Spirit, P: I am fearfully and wonderfully made. L: To another miraculous powers, to another prophecy, to another distinguishing between spirits, to another speaking in different kinds of tongues, and to still another interpretation of tongues. P: I am fearfully and wonderfully made. L: All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, and he distributes them to each one, just as he determines. P: I am fearfully and wonderfully made.

7 The Message Wonderfully Made The Response The Prayer of Thanksgiving The Benediction Song of Thanksgiving Stars by Skillet (Acoustic version for "The Shack") You spoke a word and life began, Told oceans where to start and where to end. You set in motion time and space, But still you come and you call to me by name, Still you come and you call to me by name. If you can hold the stars in place, You can hold my heart the same. Whenever I fall away, Whenever I start to break. So here I am, lifting up my heart, To the one who holds the stars. The deepest depths, the darkest nights, Can't separate, Can't keep me from your sight. I get so lost, forget my way, But still you love and you don't forget my name. If you can hold the stars in place, You can hold my heart the same. Whenever I fall away, Whenever I start to break. So here I am, lifting up my heart. If you can calm the raging sea, You can calm the storm in me. You're never too far away, You never show up too late. So here I am, lifting up my heart, To the one who holds the stars. Your love, has called my name,

8 What do I have to fear? What do I have to fear? (x2) If you can hold the stars in place, You can hold my heart the same. Whenever I fall away, Whenever I start to break. So here I am, lifting up my heart, (lifting up my heart) If you can calm the raging sea, You can calm the storm in me. You're never too far away, You never show up too late. So here I am, lifting up my heart, To the one who holds the stars. You're the one who holds the stars.
