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/ Sundays 9:30 a.m. Office s: 9am 1pm, Monday-Friday Office sjc915@sbcglobal.net stjohnlutheranelcasaginaw.weebly.com SPIRIT NEWSLETTER April 2018 Issue 118, Volume 4 Greetings Brothers and Sisters in Christ, In order to get to Easter, we have to go through Good Friday. When we left on Friday worship we heard It is finished. However, as Paul Harvey would say Now, the rest of the story. On Easter Sunday we found the tomb was empty and could share the wonderful news hopeful news He is Risen. He is risen indeed. This changed the history of the world and offered hope to the hopeless and the light replaced the darkness. The worship service was attended by more people and the children bring a delightful noise and perspective to our celebration. I am always in great joy during Easter day even though a bit exhausted because of the business beforehand. Besides the surprise of the tomb being empty Mary and I had the surprise of 7 of 9 grandchildren being with us and loving the people and the church, but especially because our youngest, a 7-month-old boy made a surprise appearance for Denver, Co. Even more surprising was all the other grandchildren knew he was coming and kept the surprise. The feeling of joy we felt in seeing him reinforced that the abundance promised in our life is our relationships with others. This joy was accentuated because this year folks decorated the church, participated in worship, prepared an amazing breakfast and put together an egg hunt that was over the top. Thanks to all who do things behind the scene week in and week out. Jesus indeed kept his promise that Jesus will rise from the dead so we are able to believe Jesus keeps all of Jesus s promises. When Jesus says Truly I tell you or Listen this is not idle talk We can trust our Lord and Savior. The resurrection made it clear that the Messiah was not just some idea, a questionable hope or a crazy dream. Jesus indeed is the ruler of the world. This resurrection gives us the assurance that when at baptism we die in Christ, we will also be resurrected. God s power, through the Spirit that brought Christ s body back from the dead means we to will bring our morally and dead selves back to life so, as disciples we can change and grow. The substance of the church s witness to the world is based on the resurrection. This Good News means stories about Jesus is not a fantasy, Jesus is not just a teacher or healer, but is a reality that gives all people hope. And the assurance when we pass on we will be okay---eternally. A professor at Seminary would liberally sprinkle water quite a distance from the baptism font and as folks ducked he would say What you are afraid of, the tomb was found empty? So today, as we honor the past we boldly envision the future with the inevitable change and a new creation. And because of not what we have done but God s love in the cross of Christ tells us we do not have to earn salvation because of what God did we are good enough and God accepts us as who we are. Let s accept and tell others about this Good News. We are looking forward to St. John s future. Blessings to all, Pastor Carl and Mary.

Do you have a life-skill you would like to lead: Sewing up a tear in a seam, sewing on a button, hem up their pants? be a craft you could teach? Work with the kids practicing for the talent show? Or show them basic fishing: I could envision recreation some day with weighted practice lures aiming for hula hoop targets in the grass. A big storage container with water to show them what the lures do in the water, etc. Then fishing at Haithco Park perhaps? Could you open or close the day with a simple bible story or prayer? We plan to have Michigan State Extension teach some things about food and a little cooking. We have someone who has offered to teach a safety class which will include gun safety, drugs and a couple of other areas. We will then be accepting registrations for the campers who will attend beginning in early-april. Staff training will be Thursday and Friday, June 14 and 15. be you could put together a simple lunch for them those days. We attended an event at SVSU recently and spoke with students. 10 of them gave us their contact info because they were interested in either working or volunteering. One of them attended the camp as a camper herself. We are applying for grants now, 3 of which we have already been assured acceptance. The opportunities are endless.
