1 The Shepherd s Voice Our mission is to be more visible, to become more connected, and to draw closer, with Christ as our center. Summer 2016 Inside: Happy Mid-Summer! Something Different Sundays - Let's do a couple this month. Summer has a nice, laid back feel to it. We hold one Worship Service and it's fun to change things up a bit. So on July 10, I will distribute the time used for a sermon to do a teach-in on Worship. As we pray and sing together I'll take a bit of time to explain each part of the Service, what it is, why we do it, how it relates to scripture based faith, what some of the current thinking is on each part of worship. We love something or someone more deeply as we grow in knowing and understanding of the other. This is my hope in offering this on July 10. On July 17, also a Something Different Sunday- I"ll dedicate the sermon time for a "ASK ANY QUESTION YOU WANT" about Christian belief or practice. We will listen and respond to each other's questions and ideas. So, start thinking about questions you've always wanted to ask and remind yourself that "the only stupid question is the question you don't ask." I hope that these summer Sundays will be useful and enjoyable for you. Invite friends to church! Eat some tomatoes. Sit by water. Wear sunscreen. Experiment safely with gin. Come to church.

2 2 The Shepherd s Voice Highlights from Your Church Council June 20, 2016 Attendees: Pastor Doug, Walt Bills, Bob Carlson, Cindy Carlson, Marc Carlson, Susan Chin, Donna Duessel, Donna Hoffman, Eileen Holleran, Karen Jackson, Charlie Simon, Jessica Thom and David Wang (Jeff Jackson, Clare McElaney - guests) Synod Convention Pastor Doug, Karen and Jeff Jackson, and Clare McElaney provided a summary of what went on at the NE Synod Convention. The theme of the convention was No Reservations Required A Place at the Table for Everyone. Ending hunger was the focus. The future of seminaries was also discussed. The Synod has created a Fund For Leaders with the goal of being able to provide seminary education without cost. The Council decided to use the July meeting to figure out how Good Shepherd can contribute to the Fund for Leaders and support our own seminarian, Clare McElaney. Flat Roof Replacement - Refinancing the church mortgage is complete. The details of the roofing contract are being worked out and the flat roof replacement will be scheduled soon. Worship Space The new baptismal bowl has been placed in the sanctuary. Please do not try to pick up or move the bowl because it is adhered to the font. Moving the bowl will break the seal. Bob Carlson is working on under-lighting the bowl. Finance The giving continues to be behind what was budgeted. Thanks Council thanks Karen & Jeff Jackson and Clare McElaney for attending Synod Convention on our behalf. Next Council Meeting July 18th details to follow Respectfully submitted, Donna Duessel, Council Secretary If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to speak with a council member or Pastor Doug: Walt Bills Bob Carlson Cindy Carlson Sue Chin Donna Duessel Billie Flaherty Donna Hoffman Eileen Holleran Karen Jackson Eric Lee Charlie Simon Jessica Thom Dave Wang Marc Carlson - Youth Representative Thank you!

Sunday Night At Good Shepherd In September we began to celebrate a 5:30 p.m. Service of Holy Communion. Gathering twice a month (for now) the addition in worship opportunities has proved helpful to many! The Service has a setting of calm, reflective, slowing down presence and is held in the Narthex area or the Lounge. Various musical guests come to lead us in song. Even if you do just fine with Sunday morning worship, come and join us for a visit to experience worship in a different style and at the hour of Vespers, sundown and "the lighting of the lamps."

COVENANT TO CARE BACKPACKS As in the past, we d like to ask your help in providing backpacks for our Covenant to Care kids as they head off to another year of school. The last two years, we experimented with a choice of two drop-off dates to accommodate vacation schedules and it worked out well, so this year there are again two dates for leaving your backpacks - August 7th or August 14th. Backpacks will be picked up on August 15th. Since Vacation Bible School will be taking place from the 8th through the 12th, be sure to leave your backpack in the narthex toward the front wall (street side) of the church to keep them out of the way. Names will be in the narthex on July 17th. As usual, most of the kids are high school age. Thanks for your continuing generosity! Jane Fieberts

12 12 The Shepherd s Voice A Prayer May the Lord who made the majestic mountains, the tenderness of tear drops, the raging rivers, the innocence of a child, the fiery sun and the cooling wind, give us ears to hear His word, eyes to see His glory, tongues to sing His praises, hearts to know His grace and mercy and a will to follow Him all the days of our lives. Special thanks to Lil Tesoriero for sharing this with us. Summer Reading Looking for something to read this summer? We have lots of books! Check out the large selection in the narthex.
