Mike Eder Chair Jill Edwardsen Vice Chair Tammy Riesgraf Recording Secretary Katie Nordby Jane Christopher Trustees Phil Schramm Dwight Crisman Kelly Jeremiason Karl Taylor President Secretary A WORD FROM REV. MIKE EDER Not with a Bang, but a Whimper Being raised and baptized in the Chaska Moravian Church, I have childhood memories of Sunday School, summer camp, confirmation and worship in our little wood paneled sanctuary. Fast-forward to August 2003 when I stood behind the pulpit and preached my first sermon here. It was also the first year that I celebrated Christmas Eve from the front of the church instead of the nave. In August 2004, I began preaching here on a once a month rotation, which morphed into twice a month in July of 2005 and eventually three times a month in December, including leading the Christmas Eve worship. I ve presided at every Easter Sunday since 2005 and was installed as your pastor in May Since then, I ve welcomed 4 grandchildren, been ordained a deacon, consecrated as a presbyter, married 28 couples, baptized 36, and buried 112 brothers and sisters. Together, we ve renovated the strip of land between the sanctuary and education wing into a beautiful memorial garden, done energy improvements to lower out heating bills by 1/3, added a handicapped bathroom and two diaper changing stations, remodeled and upgraded the sanctuary twice, provided meeting space to a Girl Scout troop, 12 AA,NA or Alanon groups, a Mom s Club, NAMI, and a family counselor, purchased the Schmidt house and rented out the church basement to become a drop in center for homeless youth. I ve enjoyed some successes in my ministry and survived some flops, but I ve always had the deep sense that I was in the place that I needed to be with the people I needed to be with. Our congregation grew slowly for my first 10 years here, but the last two years, age and decline have begun to take their toll on both our worship attendance and our financial stability. Like many other small protestant churches, slowly, we have slipped below the critical mass of people and resources required to support a full time pastor. The good news is that there continues to be vibrant ministry pouring out of the core of this church and this community is being served in a myriad of ways by the faithful, committed disciples who continue to offer themselves up as the hands and feet and heart of Jesus Christ to an increasingly broken world. As we walk together through this season of introspection and self-examination and recommit ourselves in response to the suffering and self-sacrifice of the one in whose name we gather, we already know the end of the story. The season of Lent does not end in death and darkness and despair, but in the new light of resurrection and victory over the power of death and the standing invitation into the Kingdom for all of us. Our survival, our life and our place on the receiving end of grace is assured. Chaska Moravian Church is transitioning into a home for even more lay lead ministries, more diversity and inclusiveness in worship, more opportunities to explore, grow, and thrive in our faith walks, more opportunities to share the love of Jesus Christ within our community. On February 1st the Provincial Elders Conference approved my request to retire from full time ministry in the Moravian Church as of April 30, There is talk that I may be offered a one year appointment to continue to serve the Chaska congregation on a half time basis beginning May 1, 2018, but the Western District has not yet approved such a plan so it would be premature to make that announcement today Stay tuned In His Service, Pastor Mike
