2 Pastor s Reflections I have a Fitbit that I bought with Christmas money two years ago. For me, this device is a prime example of technology working to help us out. The device I have registers my heart rate, number of steps I take, food intake, amount of sleep. I can set a goal for the number of steps I take. On and on and on with modules I am sure I haven t even touched at the present time. I like this Fitbit because it helps me to be healthy. With the Fitbit and a program through my health insurance I have lost 25 pounds since the beginning of the year. I am happy about this because I have more energy. I need more energy to keep up with the 8 year old in our house. I also need more energy to keep moving forward in mission and ministry here at St. Paul. I am also happy about it because I am no longer taking a pill to regulate my blood pressure. One of the other features I use daily is the notification to get up and get moving when I have been sitting too long. This helps me move more and I need to move more given that I do much work sitting down during the week. I do this walking/ moving in the sanctuary during the week. I have just recently started praying around all the pews as I pass them in my walk around and around the sanctuary. I also can picture the people who sit in each pew on a regular basis. I pray for you, too, in my walk around the space. The other day I asked our Adult Forum how many pray on a regular basis. Most of those gathered raised their hands. When I asked how many read their Bible on a regular basis not many raised their hands. I found this interesting. I then wondered about what makes us spiritually healthy/ fulfilled. Is it as simple as being disciplined in reading our Bible? Is it in daily prayer conversation with God? Is it worship attendance with our fellow brothers and sisters in the faith? Is it in giving of our time talents and our treasures? As your pastor I would say that list is a place to begin. Michael Foss, an ELCA Pastor in Iowa has written extensively on discipleship. Here is what he says about discipleship: Discipleship is the habits of the soul that open us up to the wonder and mystery of God s active presence in our lives. Maybe you know of other habits of your soul that open you up to God s wonder and mysterious presence in your life. I can t help think about camping ministry. A gem that engages all of us as we go away to experience God s mystery and active presence. This month we will celebrate with four young people as they affirm their faith. I pray they continue to see the wonder and mystery of God s active presence in their lives. Pray for these young people. Pray and help them as they go on this journey. Blessings and Peace as we journey in faith together, Pastor Kevin <>< 2

3 The sanctuary lamps or eternal flames are the red lamps that shine before the altar of sanctuary in our church and also in the Muhlenberg Chapel. They represent several things to the people of the church. Some say they indicate and honor the presence of Christ. Others say the burning lamps show that the light of Christ always burns in a sin-darkened world, and still others that it symbolizes God's eternal presence, which is why it is never extinguished, except on Good Friday. We need your help to keep these lamps shining and reminding us of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. If you would like to sponsor the lamps for a month, please sign up in the narthex. Cost is $12; your dedication will appear in the Sunday bulletin. Thank you! In John 8:12 Jesus says, "I am the light of the world. He that follows me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life." FATHER S DAY SCHOLARSHIPS This year we are offering you the opportunity to honor the important men if your life by giving to the Camp Luther Scholarship fund. This fund is used each year to help out our families who are sending their kids to camp. St. Paul strives to pay half of the camp tuition for each child who attends. If you would like to contribute to the scholarship fund in honor of or in memory of the men of faith in your life, i.e. your father, brother, uncle, etc. please fill out the form below and put it in the offering plate along with your check made out to St. Paul. Please write Camp Luther Scholarship on the memo line. There is a suggested donation of $10. A list of donors and recipients will be listed in the bulletin on Father s Day. FATHER S DAY SCHOLARSHIP In Honor of In Memory of By 3 Donations must be received by June 10 in order to be printed in the bulletin. Please make checks payable to St. Paul Lutheran and write Camp Luther Scholarship on the memo line.

4 A note from Jill... In reflection of Winter and patiently awaiting the true arrival of Spring, I can see the analogy of transition in our weather to the transition of death and resurrection in His light. The simple truth is that His light is always present whether in the heart of winter, the moment of the last breath or in death, the beginning signs of Spring or the empty tomb or simply in all of us who share His word, love and good news! We had a beautiful Easter service. The church was filled with the love and the light of Christ and the Holy Spirit. Our job is to keep it filled. The youth have come back in full swing & full spirit of spring. If you forget what that energy is like, please come visit us on Wednesday evening at 6:00pm for dinner and activities. The youth had a game night the first night back. The lesson was about Saul becoming Paul. In efforts to explain the story, our youth were blindfolded in the dark for the entire lesson. when finished, they had to try to pack backpacks blinded. The realization of impossible transended through all. They removed their blindfolds and packing backpacks proved to be successful as was the understanding of blindness and the truth of the story- With God, all things are possible. Whether you are blind, mean, dishonest, whatever your sin- all can change with the word of God, the light of Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit. We continue to help in our community. The youth made mini blueberry cobblers in heart tins to send to the Ronald McDonald House. They also had group discussion about the Hillsides of Camp Luther to share with the children who will be going to camp for the first time or in years to come. It is always evident to see IT ( the unconditional love of God) in each of their stories and in their eyes as they light up when telling it. God is good, all the time! The youth will be planning and preparing a Spaghetti Dinner in June for Camp Luther scholarships. The children love to cook, grow and serve in fellowship at St. Paul Lutheran Church. We yearn to feel the blessings of our wonderful church family. We continue to learn about prayer, peace, spirit, word and the love and light of our Dear Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. May His love and light reign in us all! May God s Love and Light be with you always! Spread the Good News! HE IS RISEN! HE IS RISEN, INDEED! ALLELUIA! Your Loving sister in Christ, Jill May 4

8 At the last Council meeting the Stewardship and Finance Committee brought up the idea of having a Ministry Mission Moments (MMM for short) each month. This suggestion came out of the committee s discussion about how to keep the ministry we do day to day in front of all of the followers of Jesus here at St. Paul. Many of us don t see the work of the choir or the youth ministry activities on Wednesday night because we are not actively involved in those particular ministries. So this is a way to see the very active ministry we all do here at St. Paul. The Council decided to have a monthly MMM. These moments will not be on a regular schedule (every second Sunday) but we will have one every month. Evangelism The Evangelism Committee is tasked with spreading the mission of St. Paul, both outside & inside the church. The committee co-chairs are Christina & myself. Some things we do to help fulfill our mission include: Greeting any new people to our church and welcoming them with a gift bag. The bag contains a St. Paul Mug & pens, one of our brochures, a religious book mark and a small treat (cookies, etc.) Marshall Move-In. This event is coordinated with Christ the King & Cross of Grace Lutheran churches. During this event we help the students get moved in to their temporary Marshall home. We also provide refreshing drinks and a wide variety of snacks, for free, to the families & students. This outreach has seen several students attend St. Paul while they are here in Huntington. Blessing of the animals. This event is held each fall and open to the public. Last year we began this outreach again (after not being held for a few years). Pastor blessed 35 animals (mostly dogs) at Ritter Park last fall. We are attempting to coordinate with Enslow Church (who held their blessing of the animals on the same day). We gave out treats to all the animals along with a pin created by our daughter Jo. We had our brochures on hand and spoke with several folks who stopped by. We have redesigned our website. It should be ready to go live in early May. We want to do Water in the Park (giving water out to those walking or running the Ritter park track) and an Octoberfest as events to increase our outreach in the community. We are also holding a family game night on Friday, April 27 th from 6 to 8:30 PM in the Undercroft. This will be a great opportunity to get together as a congregation & have some fun. Feel free to invite some friends and bring a favorite (family appropriate) game to share. As you can imagine, this effort cannot be completed by only a few members. Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated. St. Paul is our baby & it takes a village to raise it. Thanks, Rick Eid, Evangelism Co-Chair 8

COUNCIL HIGHLIGHTS Decided to have a Men of Faith recognition on Father s Day June 17. Pastor suggested we have an honor of memory of on this day and that we suggest a $10 contribution to our Camp Luther scholarship fund. On a recommendation from the pastor Worship and Music committee suggested we try different tables at communion in the summer on the first Sunday s in June, July and August. The tables would be similar to the way the choir currently receives communion. This comes from pastor who has heard concerns about parishioner s walking up the steps to the altar rail. This will be evaluated at the end of the summer. Council voted and approved picking up medical insurance for Alexandria after the adoption is finalized. Talked about the Gift Policy as presented by the Stewardship and Finance Committee. Heard from Property Committee as to the drainage hole repair in the back of the building. 11

Each month in the newsletter you are provided with daily readings. These readings will help you set a daily discipline for reading the Bible. Sometimes it is helpful to have a journal or piece of paper when you are reading. You can use this to write questions you may have about the text and present those questions to God in prayer. God s blessing as you read God s Word as you seek to be a faithful servant of Jesus. 12
