St. Mark’s Messenger

MAY 2015

“Saved by Grace, we are called to Celebrate, Serve and Make Disciples for Christ”

Let’s start a new tradition…

On Confirmation Sunday, May 17, the congregation is invited to ‘greet our confirmands’ after the service by offering a flower to each of them. Bring fresh cut flowers, building a bouquet of welcome and good wishes, as we celebrate these young people!

Prayer Boxes are available in Comm. Central for each 2nd-year confirmand where you can place cards, notes, gifts and prayers. The boxes will be presented to each confirmand on May 17 at the 10:30 AM blended service.

The entire congregation is invited to participate in the

Confirmation Banquet.

A delicious meal and

wonderful guest speaker will all culminate to honor

our new class of confirmands!

PAGE 2 ST. MAR K’ S MESSEN GER

Sometimes you read or hear a statement that really gets you

to thinking. Here’s one I ran across recently.

Think about it a moment. What purpose does a nightlight really serve? After all, it only puts out

enough light in a very small area to keep you from walking into something major at night, like a

wall or door. Smaller things several feet away from the light may not even be seen. So even with

a nightlight on, it is not uncommon to stub a toe on something left in the wrong place in a room or

hallway. While the nightlight works, its affect is very limited.

On the other hand, what about the 1000 watt flood lamp? Turn one of them on and you can light

an entire backyard! Everything in the area of the 1000 watt flood lamp will be easily seen. And

put a number of them on poles and you could light an entire football field.

Yet, is seems that many people are content to be 7 watt Nightlights all their lives. As Christians,

ALL OF US have the potential to be the 1000 watt flood lamps in our lives and faith.

How can I say that? Because the dynamic power of God’s Holy Spirit lives within us as Christians.

For us to be anything less than what God created us to be is wrong. I believe God intended EVERY

Christian to be the equivalent of a 1000 watt flood lamp in their life and faith.

Then why aren’t we shining that brightly in our faith and life? Truthfully, that is a question that you

will have to answer between yourself and God.

But maybe its because you are trying to hide your light. Jesus reminded us that we were not to

hide our lights, but to let them burn brightly before others!

If several 1000 watt flood lamps can work together to light a football field, what could several

Christians burning as bright as 1000 watt flood lamps accomplish for the Kingdom of God?

Or more specifically, what could St. Marks Lutheran accomplish for God if all its members were to

burn as brightly as the 1000 watt flood lamps?

Or maybe an even better question: WHAT COULDN’T WE ACCOMPLISH FOR GOD?

Here’s to each of us shining as brightly as 1000 watt flood lamps!

Shalom!

FROM YOUR

PASTOR’S

HEART

Don’t Be A Dim 7-Watt Nightlight

When You Have The Potential To Be A 1000-Watt Flood Lamp

Call Committee Update

The call committee is currently interviewing candidates for our senior pastor position. This

(confidential) process includes visiting each candidate's home church to see them lead

worship, as well as inviting them to Huntsville to see the city and our church facility. Each

step, through discussion and prayer, is intended to help both the committee and the

candidates discern the best fit for a call at St. Mark's. The committee will then determine a

single candidate to recommend to our church council and, if approved, that candidate will

then be introduced to the congregation. We, as your call committee, are so grateful for the

continued love and prayers poured out by the St. Mark's family during this time of ongoing

responsibility and reflection.

4. Bible Studies for Life: The Ragamuffin

Gospel by Brennan Manning. Many believers feel stunted in their Christian growth. We beat ourselves up over our failures and, in the process, pull away from God because we subconsciously believe He tallies our defects and hangs His head in disappointment. The Father beckons us to Himself with a “furious love” that burns brightly and constantly. Only when we truly embrace God’s grace can we bask in the joy of a gospel that enfolds the most needy of His flock: the “ragamuffins.” Led by Gwen

Dornbos.

5. Lutheranism 101: examine Lutheran beliefs

and heritage in a fresh way. If you are a lifelong Lutheran searching for more information or new to Lutheranism looking to understand what we believe, this book will be your guide. Lutheranism 101 helps create a solid foundation of reference upon which a lifetime of sound teaching can be built. Led by Pastor Warren.

At some point we all look back and wonder, What if? While it's easy to recognize how past decisions landed us where we are today, it's not so easy to predict where our current decisions will land us in the future. Led by Marlin & Denise Williamson.

Thanks to each of you for your prayers, support, and food, cards, flowers, telephone calls, memorials and reception. May God bless each of you. We are thankful for our church family.

Downtown Rescue Mission

Kitchen Ministry May Update

If you are interested in assisting the Kitchen Ministry at the Downtown Rescue Mission please

keep the following in mind.

We use hot water and various cleaning fluids, so a good pair of rubber gloves is important.

Do not wear jewelry or watches, which may become wet and the harsh chemicals may

have an impact.

Exactly what we do each week is determined upon arrival: the Mission may be taking in

food donations and also prepping for Supper, so our access could be limited to

particular equipment or portions of the kitchen and dining hall.

We DO NOT clean the kitchen for them, we work elbow-to-elbow with them.

If you are ready to roll-up your sleeves please contact Michelle Bodin or Tom and Janet

Duncan.
