ANIMATION

TRADING MY SORROWS Darrell Evans I'm trading my sorrows I'm trading my shame I'm laying them down for the joy of the Lord I'm trading my sickness I'm trading my pain I'm laying them down for the joy of the Lord

We say ‘Yes Lord, yes Lord, Yes, yes Lord’ Yes Lord, yes Lord, yes, yes Lord Yes Lord, yes Lord, Yes, yes Lord Amen!

I am pressed but not crushed, persecuted not abandoned struck down but not destroyed I am blessed beyond the curse For His promise will endure That His joy is gonna be my strength Though the sorrow may last for the night His joy comes in the morning… © I998 Integrity's Hosanna Music Net OHT CCLI Licence No

GOD WILL MAKE A WAY James Garrahy No need to worry about yesterday No need to panic, this life you’ve saved Something is coming, can’t you see it? God will make a way through the desert.

A raging sea, a consuming fire, It’s coming, can’t you see the horizon? A path through the water, an oasis of peace It’s coming, God will make a way…

God will make a way for me! God will make a way through the sea Even bring the mountains down for me ‘Cos nothing is too hard for Him He created everything He’s my Lord, my God, my Victory He’ll make a way for me. Br: God will make a way … (repeat) © 2006 emmanuelworship NET OHT WOL #1664

OPENING PRAYER

COME TO THE LORD Pat Keady All who are hungry for truth – come to the water All who are thirsting for love – come to the water All who’ve been wounded by sin – your healing has come All who are searching for hope – the sun is rising…

Come to the Lord, all you who long for mercy Come to the Lord, all you who thirst for truth Rending our hearts, there we will find A river of life flowing inside He is the Lord – He is the one our hearts long for

All who’ve been wounded by life – wash in this water All who are suffering inside – wash in this water All who are hurt and confused – lay down your struggle Rest in the peace of the cross – there is redemption…

Come to the Lord, all you who long for mercy Come to the Lord, all you who thirst for truth Rending our hearts, there we will find A river of life flowing inside He is the Lord – He is the one, He is the One!

Come to the Lord, all you who long for mercy Come to the Lord, all you who thirst for truth Rending our hearts, there we will find Broken in bread, poured out in wine… Here is the Lord – Here is the one our hearts long for… © emmanuelworship 2008

“You will be my witnesses … to the ends of the earth” (Acts 1:8)

… like a treasure passed on from generation to generation

Heroic missionaries –

Blessed Mary MacKillop,

Saint Peter Chanel,

Blessed Peter To Rot,

THEY LEFT BEHIND

they shaped and which is being handed on to you

What will you leave to the next generation?

Are you building your lives on firm foundations, building something that will endure?

Are you living your lives in a way that opens up space for the Spirit in the midst of a world that wants to forget God, or even rejects him in the name of a falsely-conceived freedom?

How are you using the gifts you have been given, the “power” which the Holy Spirit is even now prepared to release within you?

What legacy will you leave to young people yet to come?

What difference will you make?

Empowered by the Spirit

a new generation of Christians

is being called to help build a world in which God’s gift of life is welcomed, respected and cherished

A new age in which love is not greedy or self-seeking, but pure, faithful and genuinely free, open to others, respectful of their dignity, seeking their good, radiating joy and beauty.

A new age in which hope liberates us from the shallowness, apathy and self-absorption which deaden our souls and poison our relationships.

Dear young friends, the Lord is asking you to be…

prophets of this new age,

messengers of his love,

drawing people to the Father and building a future of hope for all humanity.

PILGRIM PRAYER Lord Jesus, we stand today as Your witnesses. We stand as the new generations of Christians empowered by Your Holy Spirit.

We stand today as prophets of the new age of faith, hope and love in the world. We are Your messengers of Your Love.

We pray we may have the bold strength and courage to be Your witnesses in our lives, bringing people closer to You and in building a future of hope for the world.

Let us continue with You on our daily pilgrimage and may we come closer to You. Come Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful and kindle in them the fire of Your love. AMEN

Come to the Lord, all you who long for mercy Come to the Lord, all you who thirst for truth Rending our hearts, there we will find A river of life flowing inside He is the Lord – He is the one our hearts long for
