2 In our latest series during worship on Sundays, The Risen Community, we are reminding ourselves what it means to be the church. Several ideas factored into this direction, not least of which is my 6-month mark here at First Baptist. Having been together for half a year, I ve had a little bit of time to get to know you, and likewise you with me. In seeing how deeply you care about God, this church, and each other, it seemed as good a time as any to dive into these feelings all the more deeply, adding some theological bearing to our love for each other. I was also struck by a quote some of you have heard me share a couple times now. Paraphrasing Dr. Andrea White, she said she wants to push back on the myth that the church in America is dying. This was a profound statement to make in light of the current trends. Yet she s right. If we believe in the risen Christ, then we must absolutely believe in the risen church. Jesus is alive, so too is his body us. The church may be changing, and individual churches may be dying, but the church isn t because Jesus isn t. Finally, I m also indebted to an article I read after Easter by Dr. Molly Marshall, in which she suggested that pastors need to do a better job of preaching an Easter theology. Meaning, we need a constructive theology of what it means to live the resurrection. We don t celebrate the resurrection on one highly attended Sunday a year, but rather, it defines our very existence as a church and informs our very being as followers of Jesus. So what does it look like to offer a constructive theology of the resurrection? One answer, I think, is for us to consider ourselves as a part of the resurrection, too. And so, we press into this summer with a focus in mind, that we, The Risen Community, will practice resurrection together, figuring it out as we go, but bringing life with us wherever we go. Together, as a community; boldly, in the power that raised Jesus from the dead; lovingly, as Jesus called us to do. Brent A. Newberry

6 One Great Hour of Sharing Dear Friends, It is time again for the One Great Hour of Sharing special offering. By the grace of God, we are given the opportunity to share our gifts and resources with our brothers and sisters in need around the world. All of us have the power to give back to God from that which God has given us, and in doing so, create a more just world for all of God s children. Through our gifts, we participate in the many ministries that serve the hungry, the poor, the distressed, the refugee. The Hebrew Bible models this offering in the story of Ruth and Naomi, portrayed in the Book of Ruth. When faced with forced relocation, due to famine and political strife, Ruth said to Naomi, Where you go I will go. Solidarity stands at the heart of their story. Solidarity stands at the heart of the ministries of One Great Hour of Sharing. Solidarity stands at the heart of this offering. Like Ruth and Naomi, refugees today are confronted with dire situations in their homes, and are forced by the necessity of survival to leave behind their communities in order to seek safety and security. Currently, the United Nations estimates over 60 million of our brothers and sisters across the world are refugees or displaced persons. The number is higher than it has been since World War II, and is expected to increase as violence continues in the Middle East and parts of Africa. Through One Great Hour of Sharing we embrace refugees around the world as our own. We say where you go, we will go. This offering places us side-by-side with those in need. It offers us the opportunity to be Ruth for the Naomi s of the world. By supporting One Great Hour of Sharing, we answer God s call for us to bring wholeness to a fragmented world. The One Great Hour of Sharing offering reaches across the globe. Sometimes it provides solidarity to those who have experienced loss due to disasters in our own community and congregation, and at other times it says tangibly you are not forgotten to our sisters and brothers on the other side of the world. Through our gifts, we can help ensure that all of God s children have what they need. Together, we accompany the refugee and stand in solidarity with the distressed, bringing about the world as God intended. Thank you for prayerfully considering your gift to this special offering. You will find OGHS giving envelopes in the pew racks at church. Please give as you are able. Sincerely, D. Lyn Stevens, Rev. Brent Newberry, Outreach Team Facilitator The First Baptist Church
7 On January 18, 2005, the First Baptist Church in Jamaica Plain was destroyed by fire. Determined to rebuild, the church broke ground on a new building in In support of our friends in Jamaica Plain, First Baptist Church of Worcester gave the church a loan to start the rebuilding. On Pentecost Sunday, 15 May 2016, three visitors from First Baptist Church in Jamaica Plain surprised us with a very special gift during worship, a lantern made from the charred pews salvaged from the wreckage of the Church. It s all beginnings and endings this time of year! As I write the calendar for June and talk about what has happened and what is to come, it seems to me that how the Church works is transferring from one season to the next. Choir, Handbells, Sunday School sessions are ending, Summer office schedules take over and there is a holiday feel to FBC. We are planning BBQs and Games outdoors and planting hosta and we are ready to spend more time in the fresh air as the temperatures rise, viewing the world from a different angle. And so it is with our ministries, we are beginning to look outward and see what needs to be done in our Community to make it a better environment for all who live in it. Brent has reminded us that the Church was one of the main sources of food for the hungry, education for the young and a safe haven for those in need right through the 19th century. Let s try to recapture the work they did then, with all the modern technology that is at our disposal. Open the doors, look at life from the outside and see what we can do to recapture the mission of serving in practical ways. If you don t know about him, the story of Robert Raikes, who pioneered Sunday Schools in England, is very interesting. In Church Sundays Schools in 1831 in England one and a quarter million children were being taught to read and write, well before Public Education was organized. Perhaps we need to remember our heritage as Christians who see local need and this lead and effect social change. Lynne Carroll
