One night I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord. Many scenes from my life flashed across the sky. In each scene I noticed footprints in the sand. Sometimes there were two sets of footprints. Other times there were one set of footprints.
This bothered me because I noticed That during the low periods of my life, When I was suffering from Anguish, sorrow or defeat, I could see only one set of footprints.
So I said to the Lord, You promised me Lord, That if I followed you, You would walk with me always. But I have noticed that during The most trying periods of my life There have only been one Set of footprints in the sand. Why, when I needed you most, You have not been there for me?
The Lord replied, The times when you have Seen only one set of footprints, Is when I carried you.

Recessional Hymn Be Thou My Vision Be thou my vision, O Lord of my heart; naught be all else to me, save that thou art: thou my best thought both by day and by night, waking or sleeping, thy presence my light.
Be thou my wisdom, and thou my true word; I ever with thee and thou with me, Lord. Thou my souls shelter, and thou my high towr, raise thou me heavn-ward, O Powr of my powr.
Riches I heed not, nor vain, empty praise, thou mine inheritance, now and always: thou and thou only, the first in my heart, great God of heaven, my treasure thou art.
Light of my soul, after victory won, may I reach heavens joys, O heavens Sun! Heart of my own heart, whatever befall, still be my vision, O Ruler of all. Recessional Music An Irish Prayer* Gerrit Willem Lamain *Composed for and dedicated to Scott Patrick and family
The Laborers Task Now the laborers task is oer, Now the battle day is past, Now upon the farther shore, Lands the voyager at last. Chorus Father in Thy gracious keeping, Leave we now Thy servant sleeping, Father in Thy gracious keeping, Leave we now Thy servant sleeping. There the tears of earth are dried, There its hidden things are clear, There the work of earth is tried, By a juster judge than here. Chorus There the sinful souls that turn, To the cross their dying eyes, All the love of Christ shall learn, At His feet in paradise. Chorus Earth to earth, and dust to dust, Calmly now the words we say, Left behind we wait in trust, For the resurrection day.

We are gathered to worship, to proclaim Christ crucified and risen, to remember before God our brother Scott, to give thanks for his life, to commend him to our merciful redeemer, and to comfort one another in our grief. THANKSGIVING FOR BAPTISM When we were baptized in Christ Jesus, we were baptized into his death. We were buried therefore with him by baptism into death, so that as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might live a new life. For if we have been united with him in a death like his, we shall certainly be united with him in a resurrection like his.
All who are baptized into Christ have put on Christ. In his baptism, Scott was clothed with Christ. In the day of Christs coming, he shall be clothed with glory.

Apostles Creed With the whole church, let us confess our faith, I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, Gods only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried; he descended to the dead. On the third day he rose again; he ascended into heaven, he is seated at the right hand of the Father, and he will come to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen. Prayers of Intercession Let us pray to our Lord Jesus Christ who said, I am the resurrection and the life. Pastor: Lord in your mercy People: Hear our prayer.

Prayer of the Day Almighty God, source of all mercy and giver of comfort, graciously tend those who mourn, that, casting all our sorrow on you, we may know the consolation of your love; through your Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. WORD Reading I asked for strength...And God gave me difficulties to make me strong. I asked for wisdom And God gave me problems to solve. I asked for courage and God gave me danger to overcome. I asked for love and God gave me troubled people to help. I asked for favors and God gave me opportunities. I received nothing I wanted.yet I have everything I needed. Trust in God. (Anonymous) Reading Psalm 23 The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures; he leads me beside still waters; he restores my soul. He leads me in right paths for his name's sake. Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I fear no evil; for you are with me; your rod and your staff they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD my whole life long.

Gospel John 1:1-9 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through him, and without him not one thing came into being. What has come into be- ing in him was life,
and the life was the light of all people. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not overcome it. There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. He came as a witness to testify to the light, so that all might believe through him. He himself was not the light, but he came to testify to the light. The true light, which enlightens everyone, was coming into the world. The Gospel of the Lord Praise to you, O Christ. Meditation Pastor Cassie Nault Hymn Amazing Grace Amazing grace! - how sweet the sound - that saved a wretch like me! I once was lost, but now am found; was blind, but now I see.
Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, and grace my fears relieved; how precious did that grace appear the hour I first believed!
Through many dangers, toils, and snares I have already come; tis grace has brought me safe thus far, and grace will lead me home.
The Lord has promised good to me; His word my hope secures; He will my shield and portion be As long as life endures.
