1 St. John Evangelical Lutheran Church, ELCA 915 Federal Avenue Downtown Saginaw - Saginaw, MI Pastor: The Rev. Carl E. Ballard Pastor cballard123@msn.com Office: (989) Pastor: (517) Worship w/communion Sundays 9:30 a.m. Office Hours: 9am 1pm, Monday-Friday Office sjc915@sbcglobal.net stjohnlutheranelcasaginaw.weebly.com SPIRIT NEWSLETTER October 2018 Issue 118, Volume 10 Fellow Ministers in Christ, Fall is here which brings back the normal rhythm as we look forward to the Advent season while we have opportunities in learning and serving and sharing. First of all, we are re-installing the Communion Assistant during worship. I remember when I first came and how helpful they were. The first Sunday is October 7 th. You can sign up in the Church office or let the Church Secretary Joyce Andrus know. Also, there are two Bible studies. One is on Wednesday afternoon. Study will be facilitated by Ruth Sharper at 1:00pm starting October 3 rd in the meeting room with the topic/book to be decided. The other is on Sunday at 11:00 am with everyone facilitating this Sunday Bible study as we discuss current events and the Book of Revelation. No experience is needed and everyone is welcome. Aryia Lynne Elizabeth Cavanaugh was baptized on September 23 rd. What a joyous time is was to have the parents and sponsors bring her to the baptism font where water was poured over her head in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, then as we moved to the altar to have a Gregorian chant and the candle was lit to signify the light of the world, and she was marked with the Cross of Christ forever. We have a new sister in Christ and heaven was applauding. During the children message, Mary had everyone get up to dance the crane dance while Alexander played a little ditty. It was fun to celebrate together. The hymn selection that day was Borning Cry (whose lyrics make me cry) and then Yes, Jesus Loves Me, which lit the faces of Aryia s family and friends and others because it is a song many of us learned when we were young and taught our children and grandchildren to sing. Afterwards we gathered in Knauer Hall to honor Ayria. People utilized using their gifts and their passions which made both celebrations special. Thank you all who made this such a terrific experience. I hope that we and Aryia, the beloved children of God, will follow the words in Paul s letter to the Colossians: 12 As God s chosen ones, holy and beloved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience. 13 Bear with one another and, if anyone has a complaint against another, forgive each other; just as the Lord [a] has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. 14 Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony. 15 And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in the one body. And be thankful. 16 Let the word of Christ [b] dwell in you richly; teach and admonish one another in all wisdom; and with gratitude in your hearts sing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs to God. [c] 17 And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him. Colossians 3:12-17 (NRSV) As we love our neighbors as we love ourselves this letter gives great instruction to a faith community. And others will know we are Christians by our love and keeping Jesus central in our lives with love and compassion, kindness, humility, meekness and patience. What a way to walk in faith!
2 Our ministry continues to show positive signs and growth as we continue to explore why we are where we are. We will continue to strive to be what God wants for us and others. Please consider coming to the All Saints, All Souls ecumenical event and the Trunk of Treat for the children in the community. I am looking forward to working together in doing all in the name of Christ for the glory of God. God s unlimited love and grace, Pr. Carl OPEN HOUSE MEDITATION FOR ALL SAINTS AND ALL SOULS THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1 ST AND FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 2 ND AT ST. JOHN LUTHERAN CHURCH, 915 FEDERAL AVENUE TIME WILL BE FROM 12:00 NOON TO 4:00 P.M. FOR AFTERNOON MEDITATION, REFLECTION AND PRAYER Live, contemplative music on organ and piano will fill the sanctuary. Walk in, light a candle in memory of your departed loved ones and enjoy an inward moment, peace and reflection. Background Information: All Saints and All Souls Day are Holy Days of observance of the departed. The practice of praying for the dead dates back thousands of years in Judeo Christendom. Martin Luther and other early Protestants also practiced the solemn remembrance of the faithful departed, although in a theological context separated from the Catholic Church tradition. Because the Feast of All Saints and All Souls is widely celebrated, this project will be a good venture in ecumenical outreach, particularly among the Latino Community who celebrate El Dia de Los Muertos and young adults who don t enjoy Sunday service but still seek a religious moment. Objective To provide our neighbors of Saginaw with a prayerful experience and show them the beauty of St. John s sanctuary and mission. Per Worship and Music Committee Chairperson, Marie Wells and Alexander Verdoni, Director of Music.
