1 This Week at First Christian Church For the week of May 23, 2018 A Note from Your Pastor Dear Friends, This past Sunday was Pentecost. We often call Pentecost the birthday of the church, but it is so much more than that. When we read the Pentecost story we see a church where the cultural divisions of male and female, free and slave lose their strength as the Christian community chooses an egalitarian way. When we read the Pentecost story we see a church made up of people who are very different from one another, who don t lose their distinction (it s not that they all start speaking one language, rather they can all understand in their native languages) but who come together for a common purpose amidst their diversity. When we read the Pentecost story we see a church called to be prophetic and to listen even to unexpected voices who are telling God s truth in their midst. Pentecost is too often overlooked on the Christian calendar. Especially as it comes at a busy time of year amidst graduations, holiday weekends, and the beginning of summer schedules, we so easily often slip by it and forget to realize its importance. And yet, Pentecost is not to be neglected. After all, the meaning of Pentecost wasn t just for the early church, but calls us back to who we, as Christian community, are intended to be. Over the next several weeks we plan to leave the sanctuary dressed for Pentecost. It is my hope that the reds and oranges, the fabrics that seem to move in the breeze, will be reminders that the Spirit continues to move among us and continues to call us to be a community of hope and joy where all are included and where all voices matter. Hope to see you Sunday! Jill Remember: We are on summer break from Sunday School. One Sunday a month we will have a Hunger Forum and activities for the kids at 9am. Mark your calendars now for June 17 and July 15 (August date TBD). Thank you! Thanks to each of you who participated in Sunday s Offering of Letters. We have 32 letters ready to be carried to our senators in Washington. If you took your notecard home with you to work on your letter, please bring it back to the church by Sunday, May 27. If you didn t get a chance to write a letter or were absent on Sunday, a table with notecards and sample letters will be at the back of the sanctuary one more Sunday. And remember, you can use the sample letter for a guide or write your own. A special Thank You to our volunteers who have been leaders in faith formation over the past year. They committed to teaching Sunday School, leading Youth Group and Spiritual Life Groups and faithfully served on a monthly or weekly basis, to share the love of God and teachings of Jesus with many. When you see them, please thank them for sharing their gifts with our children, youth, and adults! Children s Sunday School: Tricia Coobs, Maggie Keyser, Lindsey Schluckebier, and Brenda Powell. Youth Group Leaders: Jay Thomas, Cory Coobs and Brian Fleck Intergenerational and Adult Classes, Spiritual Life Groups: Bob & Rachel Bogs, Sara Riggs, Jen Knights, Nancy Richards, Beth Pelton, Julie Fitzpatrick, Jay Thomas, Marcus Seaton, Diane Hertel and Carol Mertens.

3 This Week at First Christian Church May 23, 2018 The following note along with a gift of kolaches (which were enjoyed Sunday) came from Our Lord s Church and Patricia and Dennis Arnold: Members of First Christian Church, Thank you so much for the use of your kitchen to make kolaches. Your generosity and kindness are shining brightly. If you are wanting to eat out on Wednesday, June 6, make your way to Hudson s. 15% of the sales that evening will be donated to CROP. Eat dinner and help those who are hungry. Mental Health First Aid Training offered... June 7 and 14, 12:30 5:30pm at the Iowa City Senior Center. This free class will help you be prepared to identify signs and symptoms of mental health illness and crisis and help people connect with needed resources. For more information or to register call or click here. Food, Faith, and Climate: Connecting the Dots Join Interfaith Power & Light s Workshop to learn how our food practices contribute to climate change, and how our faith traditions call us to respond with practical solutions. We will look at our own food practices and create a plan for more climate-friendly choices. Saturday, June 23, 2018 from 9:30-11:30am. Doors open at 9am. Come early for coffee and to browse the tables of local food resources. The workshop takes place at First United Methodist Church (214 E. Jefferson St., Iowa City). It is free thanks to Iowa City Community Partnership Climate Action fund. Register at Registration required. Scripture: Romans 8:12-17 Sunday, May 27, 2018 Sermon: You Are A Child of God MEMORIAL DAY Over the years, Memorial Day has become a big holiday weekend. It s now the unofficial start of summer, rather than a day of tribute to the departed it was originally meant to be. Even if we plan fun events for Memorial Day weekend, it s important to stop long enough to bow our heads and pay respect to our departed loved ones especially those who fell in battle while helping preserve America s liberties. Let us take time to make the pilgrimage to various cemeteries and pause long enough to say, Thank you, Father, for these special lives, for sacrifices made and for friendships we have shared.
