In many parts across East Africa, millions of people are facing starvation in the coming months. The severity and scale of the crisis is unprecedented in recent decades. The two worst effected countries in the region are Somalia and South Sudan. Failures of the rain to come for two years has inevitably affected the growths of grain and livestock.

 “Peace is Flowing”.

Peace is flowing like a river;                     His Love is flowing like a river,

Flowing out through you and me,                Flowing out through you and me,

Flowing out into the desert,                     Flowing out into the desert,        

Setting all the captives free.                   Setting all the captives free

Offertory:

Be still for the presence of the Lord.       Be still for the glory of the Lord

The Holy One is here.                             Is shining all around.

Come bow before Him now                        He burns with holy fire.

With reverence and fear.                                    With splendor he is crowned.

In him no sin is found.                              How awesome is the sight.

We stand on holy ground.                         Our radiant King of light.

Be still for the presence of the Lord       Be still the glory of the Lord

The Holy one is here                               Is shining all around..

Communion:

This is the day, this is the day.                This is the day that the Lord has made.

That the Lord has made,                         I will rejoice and be glad in it.

That the Lord has made.                             This is the day, this is the day.

I will rejoice, I will rejoice,                        That the Lord has made.

And be glad in it, and be glad in it.

Hymn

I will never forget you my people.               Does a mother forget her baby.

I have carved you on the palm of my hand.  Or a woman the child within her womb.

I will never forget you.                             Yet even if these forget.

I will not leave you orphaned.                    Yes even if these forget.

I will never forget my own.                       I will never forget my own.

Lay your hands:

Lay your hands gently upon us,                    You were sent to free the broken hearted.

Let their touch render your peace,           You were sent to give sight to the blind.  

Let them bring your forgiveness and         You desire to heal all our illness.              

healing,  Lay your hands gently                  Lay your hands, gently lay your hands.
