2 NOTE FROM THE PASTOR Greetings friends, As we enter November, you are probably thinking that my message will relate in some way to Thanksgiving. Although I was tempted to explore our need to give thanks, I decided instead to discuss November 19th. This coming November 19th will be the 155th anniversary of Lincoln s Gettysburg Address. As I considered what I would write, I wondered whether very many people know that one of our nation s greatest speeches was given on this day. Our family took a day trip to Gettysburg National Military Park this past summer and thoroughly enjoyed our visit to the battlefield and museum. We took a bus tour through the battlefield and were immersed in history and, more importantly, our American heritage. We should have made it a two-day trip! As I prepared this article, I reread the Gettysburg address and was struck by Lincoln s ability to summarize in ten sentences the meaning and purpose of the nation. In case you haven t read it in some time, I want to include it here: Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation, so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But, in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth. As I reread Lincoln s words from long ago, I could not help but think about the words, They gave the last full measure of devotion. They sacrificed their very lives for our freedom. They certainly didn t die in vain. I am reminded of Isaiah 25:6-9 in which we are called upon to look to the future with faith in God and thanksgiving for removing the shroud of sin and iniquity from our hearts: On this mountain the Lord of hosts will make for all peoples a feast of rich food, a feast of well-matured wines, of rich food filled with marrow, of well-matured wines strained clear. And he will destroy on this mountain the shroud that is cast over all peoples, the sheet that is spread over all nations; he will swallow up death for ever. Then the Lord God will wipe away the tears from all faces, and the disgrace of his people he will take away from all the earth, for the Lord has spoken. It will be said on that day, Lo, this is our God; we have waited for him, so that he might save us. This is the Lord for whom we have waited; let us be glad and rejoice in his salvation. Perhaps, our Lord is calling us to give a little more measure of devotion to Him, to sacrifice a bit of our time and pray for a new birth in the church and community. We are thankful for the men and women who went before us, who waited upon the Lord in tireless prayer in these hallowed halls and gave their all for this church. Their sacrifice will never be in vain. Out of that terrible battle 155 years ago came a new beginning a new birth of freedom. In our daily lives, we too can find a new birth of freedom in our journey of faith to do the work that our Lord left for us to do. Have a Happy Thanksgiving! Blessings, Pastor Scott 2

4 A LOOK BACK CROP WALK 2018 (from Pastor Wayne Nitzsche at Perkasie Mennonite Church) There were over 100 walkers who participated in this year s CROP Walk back on Sunday October 14th. On that day, $15, was raised in donations. That number is still growing. Over 600 lbs. of canned food was collected and donated to F.I.S.H. Special thanks to Courtland Gardner, Pastor Scott Dorn, and everyone else who participated in CROP Walk, or attended the October 9th fundraiser, or even prayed for its success. FIRE DEPARMENT OPEN HOUSE Despite the less-than-ideal weather conditions, and competing with a Thursday night Eagles game, the Perkasie Fire Department Open House had a great turnout on Thursday, October 11th. First UMC members, along with hundreds of people from the community, were in attendance. Everyone enjoyed great food, First Church brochures were distributed, and prayer was offered up for some folks on the spot. Thank you to everyone who participated in, or prayed for, this great outreach opportunity. (See pg. 7 for photos.

5 UM STUDENT DAY SUNDAY NOVEMBER 25TH UM Student Day is one of the special Sundays authorized by the General Conference to be observed with an offering on the Sunday after Thanksgiving. The purpose of United Methodist Student Day is to call upon the denomination to support United Methodist students as they prepare for life by adding knowledge to their faith. The funds received from the offering go into the United Methodist Student Loan Fund to underwrite scholarships for United Methodist students. The fund is administered by the General Board of Higher Education and Ministry. United Methodist Student Day is one of six churchwide Special Sundays with offerings of The United Methodist Church. United Methodist Student Day calls the church to support students as they prepare for life in uniting faith with knowledge. The special offering provides scholarships for qualified United Methodist applicants. DONATION IDEA FROM F.I.S.H. FISH serves many individuals who experience homelessness throughout the year.
