The Act of Rededication of the Church
Facilities (Continued) One To the glory of God,
our Father, by whose favor we have builded to
the honor of Jesus the Christ, the Son of the
living God and our Saviour to the praise of the
Holy Spirit, source of life and light. All We
rededicate this house. One For worship in prayer
and song, for the ministry of the Word, for the
observance of the holy ordinances. All We
rededicate this house. One To the sanctification
of the family to the training and nurture of
childhood to the inspiration of youth and the
salvation of all. All We rededicate this
house. One To the help of the needy to the
promotion of brotherhood to the extension of the
kingdom through the whole wide world. All We
rededicate this house.
The Act of Rededication of ALL One Wondrous
God, the skies and the highest heavens cannot
contain you, much less temples made by human
hands. Yet you dwell on this earth among us and
make yourself known in sacred space and time.
Receive this house afresh for your glory as we
rededicate it and ourselves to your service. All
Fill this sanctuary with your Holy Spirit. May
its walls, its furnishings, its holy emblems,
declare your praise. One Consecrate afresh this
building to your service and this church to
Christs ministry. May we show forth your
loving-kindness as a light upon a stand that
leads others to see our good works and give you
praise. All Accept the praise of our lips, the
songs of our hearts, the adoration of our
spirits, that in all things we may glorify you
and enjoy you for ever. One Attend to every
prayer uttered aloud or in secret, touching each
heart with the certainty that no prayer goes
unanswered. All Proclaim your word by the
reading of the scripture and the preaching of the
gospel. May all take heart and believe to their
salvation and to the renewal of the world. One
Reveal yourself to your people gathered around
the Lords table in the breaking of bread and in
communion with one another.
(The Lords 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. Lead us not into temptation, but
deliver us from evil. For Thine is the kingdom,
and the power, and the glory forever. Amen)

The Act of Rededication of the Church
Facilities One We set apart this house to the
worship of the living and true God, and to the
service of Jesus Christ our Lord. All We devote
it to the preaching of the gospel of the grace of
God for the conversion of sinners, and to the
education of Christians in a knowledge of
spiritual truth, in all the activities of
Christian Life. One Here the incense of prayer
and praise ascend to God. Here shall the
ordinanaces of the Lords house be sacredly
observed. All Here shall the Word of God, which
liveth and abideth forever, be sounded out for
the salvation of the perishing, and shine as a
perpetual light to guide Gods pilgrims through
the night of Time to the land of everlasting
light. One Here may children of sin and sorrow
find a refuge from despair and ruin, and
Christians a harbor to which they can resort when
the tempest is high, and be safe. All May no
discordant note of strife ever be heard within
these walls, no unholy spirit of pride or
worldliness find entrance here. One And may God
graciously accept this offering of a house in His
name-an offering made by grateful hearts and
willing hands-and bless every heart that shares
this gift. All May multitudes here be born to
God, so that when all these here today shall have
gone to their eternal home, others will take up
the service until Jesus comes and all His are
gathered home.
The Act of Rededication of ALL (Continued) All
Greet with outstretched arms newborn children
entrusted to your care, embracing them with a
love that draws them ever nearer to you. One
Enfold in your loving care those who are
baptized. Grant that they may know themselves to
be members of the body of Christ through Gods
everlasting covenant. All Bless by your presence
those who pledge themselves to one another in
holy marriage, adding your strength to their
vows. One Reconcile by the power of your Spirit
those who feel themselves estranged from you and
one another. Within this body grant them your
peace, putting an end to all hostility. All
Comfort all who gather in mourning for the loss
of a loved one, giving them courage to celebrate
the gift of life and to know your eternal
love. One Sanctify all that we are, all that we
have, all that we shall become, and make us
wholly yours. All Blessing and glory and wisdom
and thanksgiving and honor and power and might be
to you, our God, forever and ever! Amen.

Flood Recovery Continues in Nashville by Gregory
Rumburg, Elder, Vine Street Christian Church The
rain just kept coming down...   It's a common
refrain within Nashville conversation this week.
One part recollection. One part revelation of
disbelief. "My daughter got scared," Dave, a
local father, shared. "She'd never seen so much
water." Others were not so fortunate. In
water-ravaged neighborhoods, Metro Nashville
officials are directing people to separate their
homes and personal belongings--items now known
simply as flood debris--into four piles. A fifth
pile seems to be emerging--the one called, "Try
to save." A grandmother's trunk from Ellis
Island. Christmas ornaments chock-full of family
memories of holidays past. Photos documenting a
once-happy family now separated by distance,
death or divorce... and now flood water.  The
rain just kept coming down...  (You may give to
week of compassion in our offering and we will
see that your gift reaches Week of Compassion)

Matthew 1613-20 Now when Jesus came into the
district of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his
disciples, "Who do people say that the Son of Man
is?" 14 And they said, "Some say John the
Baptist, but others Elijah, and still others
Jeremiah or one of the prophets." 15 He said to
them, "But who do you say that I am?" 16 Simon
Peter answered, "You are the Messiah, the Son of
the living God." 17 And Jesus answered him,
"Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah! For flesh
and blood has not revealed this to you, but my
Father in heaven.

18 And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this
rock I will build my church, and the gates of
Hades will not prevail against it. 19 I will
give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and
whatever you bind on earth will be bound in
heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be
loosed in heaven." 20 Then he sternly ordered
the disciples not to tell anyone that he was the
Messiah.
