1 The Southwood Chalice Sharing Christ s Ministries & Missions A monthly publication October Hwy 58 South, Kinston, NC (252) ) Brothers and Sisters in Christ, Working theologian Mick Jagger once wrote: You can't always get what you want But if you try sometimes you just might find You get what you need I use the term working theologian slightly in jest, but I would argue that these are profound words. They reflect something I believe is a very important Biblical principle. Humans embrace narcissism. We respond by saying, Not I! But the truth is that we all want certain things. And the things we want can completely invade our senses. Siddhārtha Gautama was an individual who proposed the idea that a desire for material possessions caused suffering. He renounced all of his earthly possessions (which were many, for he was born into a wealthy family). Gautama spent the remainder of his life seeking ways to remove desire from his life. When he achieved this, he achieved a state referred to as nirvana. You probably better recognize Gautama by another name, the Buddha. Many Buddhist Monks live an ascetic lifestyle, giving up their possessions. By refocusing their lives, the hope is that they might find what they need! That is, to obtain nirvana like the Buddha! So, how in the world can Mick Jagger and the Buddha teach us anything about Christianity? Next time we think we really want something, we need to check ourselves. Especially when it comes to what we might think is best for the church, we need to think about the far-reaching implications. Jesus sacrificed everything for us! When was the last time we sacrificed anything for our fellow sister or brother in Christ?

3 Homecoming 2018 We just enjoyed one of the most inspiring homecomings ever. Our cup runneth over. We had to add extra tables to hold our wonderful brothers and sisters that came to celebrate with us. It is so encouraging to see families, children, babies and, of course, our mothers and fathers all eating a great meal together and sharing their love with each other. Homecoming is an annual event and is a time to see former members, old friends and new friends and to reflect on what our lives have been like in the past year! Christian fellowship is one of the most important things we can do. What a wonderful day we had. 1 Corinthians 11:33 33 So then, my brothers and sisters, when you gather to eat, you should all eat together. 3

6 DAYS FOR GIRLS Southwood Memorial Christian Church is embarking upon a new outreach project by establishing a local chapter of Days for Girls. What is Days for Girls (DfG)? Days for Girls is a non-profit organization started in 2008 to innovate, create, and distribute a viable and sustainable solution for feminine hygiene to girls and women in 3rd world countries. Women, imagine, if you will, sitting on cardboard for several days each month, often going without food unless someone brings it to you. That is the stigma and opportunity killing reality many girls and women in 3rd world countries live with. Days for Girls' kits are designed to be a reusable feminine hygiene solution. On Sunday, October 21st at 3:00 PM in our Family Life Center at Southwood Church, we will hold our first meeting to kick-off this new local chapter of Days for Girls. At this event, you will be presented with more detailed information about Days of Girls and how you can be a part of this satisfying, fulfilling, and meaningful outreach project. We particularly need seamstresses or anyone who sews. BUT, you DO NOT have to sew to be a part of this project. There are other ways you can contribute as well. We cordially invite anyone interested to join us and find out how much of a difference DfG's kits assist women and girls be breaking the cycle of poverty and living their lives with dignity.
