1 1 First United Church of Christ, Palmerton, PA APRIL 2017 A Bridge Over April News 2 Church Council 3 Worship Schedule 5 Calendar 6 Birthdays 7 People & Places 7 The other day as I was driving home, I crossed over the bridge near my home. This bridge will soon be dismantled and a new one will take its place. I began to think about the song performed by Simon and Garfunkel, Like a bridge over troubled water. Then as I reflected on the worship text I began to see the cross of Christ, not standing tall on Calvary, but lying over the gulf of space, just like a bridge so that safe travel could be given. The cross of Christ promises us a safe passage, not only into heaven, when we truly believe in Christ, but a safe passage over the valleys of our lives as we live with Christ. As the song promises us I ll be there we too should be able to hear Christ s love for us for He too is certainly there for us, no matter what we are trying to cross, and no matter how deep and wide the canyon seems. Christ is there! This month we will once again celebrate the Resurrection of our Lord and Savior. We have to come to the cross in order for us to cross over into the forgiveness and the love of our God. Remember Christ s first words from the cross were Father, forgive them for they know not what they do. True love and strength given for each of us and for us to then bridge the gaps of hatred and war with a greater peace and forgiveness than we will ever know or experience in our lives. The cross, not a symbol of death and annihilation, but a bridge to new life, to hope, and to peace. We sang at Christmas, how love came down from God to us, now we proclaim the Hosanna of Christ, not entering Jerusalem, but entering into our hearts and minds and carrying us over the valley of the shadow of death to new life. No more crucify him!, just Alleluia, He is Risen, He is Risen indeed! Let us remember why we are Christ s disciples and strengthen our resolve to worship together, to pray for each other, and to offer the same gift of forgiveness to others that He offers to us. Holy week takes us through the celebration of a King amongst the people, to a hostile environment where the shouts of celebration turned to shouts of anger. How often our lives follow that same emotional roller coaster as well. Yet my friends, there is a bridge over our troubled waters, and that bridge is the One who conquered His death and ours and is Risen. He is Risen Indeed! Have a blessed Easter and worship our Savior with thanksgiving and praise. Pastor Martin

3 3 Council Summary: Spring is here at last! As the last of the snow melts away, we prepare our hearts, minds and souls for the upcoming Easter Holiday. Let us remember why we are here and renew our commitment to our faith. We need your help, we have open seats on committees that need to be filled so these committees can help the church run smoothly. I know many of you were memebers of committees in the past. We also have Congregation Memebers that never sat on committees. Please, this is the time to step-front and help our church. We are a small, but mighty group. It always helps to have fresh people on these committees who have fresh ideas and motivation. The time is now and we need you. Many of these committees only meet quarterly, once a year or as needed. Please search your heart and consider joining one of the following committees, these again are necessary committees for the church to run smoothly and efficiently: 1. Covenance: Committee oversees all paid staff of First UCC; 2. Property: Committee oversees maintenance issues, will make small easy repairs and will report to Council on maintenance issues and repairs. Please note, it is not expected that anyone on this committee be at the church 24/7 making repairs. You will not get a phone call in the wee morning hours because a light is out. We need a good team together to help sort-out the maintenance needs and repairs and prioritize them. This Committee is urgently needed. 3. Council: Please also note we have a vacant seat open on our Church Council. We would greatly appreciate any and all interest in any Congregation Members wishing to come aboard. As you know, Council is the governing body of the church. Our Council is able to hold a maximum of 12 individuals with a minimum of 9. Currently, we have 8 seats filled. Please consider joining our Council. We meet once a month to review church business. Again, fresh ideas and perspective are welcome. No-one judges you, you are entitled to your opinion and we all have the best interests of the Church at heart. The call to act is now, we hope you hear it and come forward. Should you have any questions on these Committees or if you are interested in serving our Church, please do not hesitate to contact me. I want to wish you all a very Happy Easter and I look forward to worshipping with you. Sincerely, Jennifer Sommers, Council President

Laughter can help us feel better and so much more so please feel free to come ready to laugh and to share a humorous moment together. Young, old, in between and unsure are welcome to share.
