1 Hosanna Lutheran Church July 2016 H O R I Z O N o F H O P E Come people of God. Leave the cares of your day and concerns of your life. Come and be filled with the presence of God! WELCOME-WORSHIP-WITNESS SUMMER WORSHIP TIMES 8:30 A.M. Traditional Service 10:00 A.M. Contemporary Service Fellowship & Refreshments at 9:30 am Gree ngs in the name of Jesus Christ, crucified and risen for the sake of the world. Today, June 17, 2016 marks the fi h day since the horror of the Orlando shoo ngs. It is also the one year anniversary of the shoo ngs at Emmanuel AME Church in Charleston. I am wri ng today to urge members and congrega ons of the Nebraska Synod to pray for God s peace and healing for the vic ms of both of these tragedies, for their loved ones, and all whose lives are impacted as a consequence of them. I am also urging that we act to confront the evils that led to and arise from this tragedy, by commi ng ourselves to conversa on, advocacy and ac on: To end the tolerance of exclusion, persecution and violence against members of the LGBTQ community To confront the reality of racism by working to end our own complicity in it, and dismantling the structures and policies that perpetuate it To demand action to address the scourge of gun violence across our nation. This isn t about gun rights versus gun control; it s about us as faithful and civilized people seeking compromise and solutions to prevent more senseless slaughter To avoid demonizing whole categories of people, especially those whose practice of their Muslim faith is wholly at odds with the radicalized violence of a few Most importantly, to overcome the spirit of division and antagonism that undermines our communities, threatens our well-being, and prevents reasoned dialog and reasonable solutions. We are called to better than this. As servants of the Prince of Peace--himself a vic m of prejudice, hatred and violent death we are called to commit ourselves and call on others to be in conversa on with legislators, community leaders and one another, united in the common goal that we never again witness such horrors nor tolerate the evils that spawn them. I am asking that you join with me in offering this prayer, individually and in our congrega ons, in the days to come: Everlas ng God, source of life and creator of all; we confess that ours is a broken world, and that we too o en focus on its fractures and in our fear seek others to blame. Grant us the grace to admit and repent of our own divisive a tudes and behaviors, and the courage to follow you in the work of healing wounds and binding up the broken. Bless with wholeness all whose lives are touched or torn by senseless violence. Transform and straighten those whose hearts are twisted with hatred. Stretch us beyond our fears in embracing all whom you have created in your image, following the example of Jesus Christ, whose arms were stretched in death for the life of the world. In His name we pray. Amen Yours in Christ, Brian D. Maas Bishop

3 Horizon of Hope Page 3 From Pastor Jim... Hello Hosanna, I hope you have a great 4 th of July a time to celebrate our great nation and our freedoms: to be with others; to have a day off work and to generally have fun. At least that is true for most of us. I m sure the pets have other things they d like to say how scary it must be for them when the fireworks light off. Not only our pets but perhaps those sounds remind some others of the danger they were once in (i.e. a gunfire exchange or bomb explosions). Our nation was founded in the midst of those dangerous kinds of sounds I m sure it wasn t easy. Danger we were recently reminded in our sermon series on Community is Messy that there is trouble all around us. Folks who have been constantly surrounded by a heighten sense of danger can begin to suffer emotionally just look at our pets in the middle of sound of fireworks they get very frazzled by the fourth. In the midst of things like this Jesus said Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is light. Mat 11: What a great promise Jesus gives us. Jesus can make a difference in our lives and when we seek him out, we will find him. Remember his Spirit is alive in us also and we can reach out and encourage one another in the midst of this heighten sense of danger. Our memory verse of the month is from John 16:33 I have said this to you, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take courage; I have conquered the world! God can do amazing things in our lives often what we least expect see the prayer below. A CONFEDERATE SOLDIER'S PRAYER, Author Unknown, (Attributed to a battle weary C.S.A soldier near the end of the war) I asked God for strength, that I might achieve; I was made weak, that I might learn humbly to obey. I asked for health, that I might do greater things; I was given infirmity, that I might do better things. I asked for riches, that I might be happy; I was given poverty, that I might be wise. I asked for power, that I might have the praise of men; I was given weakness, that I might feel the need of God. I asked for all things, that I might enjoy life; I was given life, that I might enjoy all things. I got nothing that I asked for, but everything I hoped for. Almost despite myself, my unspoken prayers were answered. I am among all men most richly blessed. God is Blessing us ---- Pastor Jim WIN TICKETS FOR NE VS.
