1 Zion United Church of Christ 816 Faraon Street St. Joseph, MO (816) Whoever you are, wherever you are on life's journey, you are welcome here! Pastor s Musings Bear with one another and, if anyone has a complaint against another, forgive each other; just as the Lord [a] has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. 14 Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony. 15 And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in the one body. And be thankful. Colossians 3:13-15 The New Year brings a fresh start. We make our resolutions. We promise ourselves that we will be healthier. We hope to reduce our vices and increase our virtues. Gym and weight loss program memberships abound. We will get our blood pressure and everything else checked that we have been putting off. Yes, these are all good things to do: good self-care. We will be able to do our best work at living, being in relationship with God and each other, and in doing the work of being God s people in this world when we take care of our sacred bodies, minds, and souls. Like the author of Colossians, we may find that this is a good time to work on forgiving as God has forgiven us. May we clothe ourselves in God s Love. God give us the heart to share Love Divine with all whom we encounter. Clarity is not easy, but it is healing. Compassionate clarity in self-reflection gives us a chance to heal what is broken in ourselves, our relationships, and our community. Here at Zion, with the program New Beginnings, we are looking for new ways of seeing and being. We will pray that we will be a people with the peace of Christ ruling our hearts and God s compassionate justice becoming more and more visible in our attitudes and actions. As one community of God s Love in the one body of Christ which is the church universal, let us walk together in this fresh New Year: Zion, where all are welcome! Much Love, Kimi Messenger - January
2 Acknowledgments/Announcements Dear Joyce & Zion Prayer Quilters, The quilt you made for my mother, Mary Ann, is beautiful! She was very emotional when I told her that each knot tied came with a prayer for her. Please thank all who worked on it. Mark and I keep praying the Holy spirit will touch her heart in only the way HE can. Sincerely, Mary (Mark s sister) Dear Ladies, Thank you so much for the beautiful prayer quilt I received recently from Lora Crowley that you all had a hand in making for me, I m done with four of the six treatments of chemotherapy that are needed and I m feeling better and stronger after each one. Your thoughtfulness was much appreciated!

3 Annual Christmas Letter Dearest Members and Friends of Zion United Church of Christ, Right now people of Zion, we are in the season of waiting and anticipating. We wait for Emmanuel: God with us. We anticipate the return of longer days and the coming of the light. Both the light of a new year and the uncreated light: Jesus the light of the world. We wait to see people and perhaps places we have been longing for. This year families in our congregation have celebrated graduations, retirements, and the birth of babies. You, the people of Zion, are my joy and holy calling as you have called and installed me this sacred year. Zion, where all are welcome! Seeking to be church together, we have been journeying together through celebrations and sorrow. Here at Zion we have worshipped together, eaten together, and even cleaned together! We have shared our common lot together with each other, our greater community, and with God our Savior. Moving together, we have sought comfort and community as a people of the comma: listening for God who is still speaking. Through that discerning process you have called a Visioning Team to prayerfully and carefully consider the possibilities for the ongoing hope for our shared life together. With the approval of Zion s Administrative Council and congregation, the Visioning Team is coordinating our involvement with the New Beginnings Program to the congregation. Led by our Visioning Team, we also anticipate the start of contract with the New Beginnings program with the first visit from Dr. Peter Wells on December 9, So, in this season of waiting and anticipating, may we celebrate the journey in wonder, love, hope, and peace! A few hopes and prayers for this time: -May your travels and your staying at home be full of comfort, safety, and gratitude to God our Creator. -May you see Christ in all so that Christ may be seen in you. -May your holidays and common days be infused with the loving kindness and compassion of Jesus through the grace and power of the Holy Spirit. Much Love! Rev. Kimi Yokoyama December 1, 2015 Messenger - January

5 Life at Zion The Visioning Team coordinated the Dec. 9th visit of Dr. Peter Wells. He arrived early in the afternoon and was given a tour of the church by Linda Stenger, Kimi Yokoyama and Bill Luce. Sam Crowley arrived later to answer any questions regarding building issues. Dr. Wells also met with Donna Minton in regards to church finances. He was shown around the church and parsonage. Afterwards, Dr. Wells went on a tour of St. Joseph and met with some members of the visioning team/ council before the 7 p.m. meeting of the congregation and Dale Parsons. We had a variety of members there, both old and new which gave an overall view from several perspectives of the members. Dr. Wells has requested some additional information to help him complete his report which we will endeavor to get to him. His report should be completed by late February, which will be followed by a series of meetings and workshops as the New Beginnings Program helps us plan Zion's future. GCF GCF celebrated the holidays by dining at Hamburger Mary s in Kansas City. We also adopted two individuals for Christmas. With help from the church, we were able to fulfill their Christmas wishes. We had a very good time wrapping presents for them. Mitzi delivered them for us! Thank you to everyone for your help! -The Visioning Team A big thank you to the Zion UCC "Noodle Making Crew", GCF, and all those who donated or coordinated to help make this year's Christmas so very special for The Haven and From l to r: Betty Davis, Marge Buescher, Judah House and Mitzi Teliczan, Shelley Kirschner two very special singles from our community.
