*Psalm 23
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures;
he leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul:
he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness
for his names sake.
Yea, though I walk
through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil:
for thou art with me;
thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me
in the presence of mine enemies:
thou anointest my head with oil;
my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
all the days of my life:
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
*Gospel John 14:1-4, 18-19, 27 Katelyn Willis
[Jesus said,] Let not your hearts be troubled.
You believe in God; believe also in me.
In my Fathers house there are many dwelling places.
If it were not so,
would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you?And if I go and prepare a place for you,
I will come again and take you to myself,
so that where I am, there may you be also.
And you know the way to the place where I am going.
I will not leave you orphaned; I am coming to you.
In a little while, the world will no longer see me,
but you will see me;
because I live, you also will live.
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you.
Do not let your hearts be troubled, and do not let them be afraid.

*Affirmation of Faith
We are not alone; we live in Gods world.
We believe in God:
who has created and is creating,
who has come in Jesus, the Word made flesh,
to reconcile and make new,
who works in us and others by the spirit.
We trust in God.
We are called to be the church:
to celebrate Gods presence,
to love and serve others,
to seek justice and resist evil,to proclaim Jesus, crucified and risen,
our hope and our redeemer.
In life, in death, in life beyond death,
God is with us.
We are not alone.
Thanks be to God.
