Congregational
Meeting
May 17, 2020
POSTPONED
Because of the continuing impact the
coronavirus is having on our
communities and considering state
mandates still in effect regarding large
gatherings, St Timothy church council at
it’s April 8th meeting voted to postpone
the May 17th congregational meeting.
When there are clear indications that it
is safe for large gatherings to convene
once again, a new date will be selected
for the meeting and will be announced
to the congregation.
Pentecost Sunday, May 31st ends the
season of Easter. It is the Sabbath
day after a week's worth of weeks
(50 days) and commemorates the
descent of the Holy Spirit upon the disciples
of Christ after the Resurrection. Pentecost is
not a solemn occasion. It is a time for vigor,
excitement, energy, movement, birth, fresh
air, and fresh commitment. Pentecost is a
time of RED -- a color of fire and zeal and
passion and heat. The Spirit is incendiary
within us.
will be on Sunday,
May 31st at the 10:30
am service. A reception following the service
will be in the Sunday school room.
Congratulations to our confirmands:
Gracihana Elliott and Lena Hamann.
First Communion
Recipients Date to be determined
Congratulations to Lilith Murdoch and
Gabrielle Kerchner who will be receiving
their first communion this year. Please
watch the announcement bulletin and/or
weekly E-blast for more information. A
reception will follow the late service once
a date is determined.
Teacher Appreciation Sunday
On May 17th, let’s make a special
effort to thank all our teachers
whether a Sunday School teacher or
those leading Bible studies, etc.
Your hard work is appreciated.

From the interim Pastor’s Desk… Christ is risen! He is risen indeed!
Because Christ is risen, we are called to a different kind of life from the world
lost in sin and death. We have died with Christ in our Baptism, and every day we
rise with Christ in the life that the Holy Spirit creates. The fruit of that Spirit, as
Paul teaches in Galatians, is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness,
faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.
The reality, though, is that in our life together as church we don’t always exemplify the fruit of
the Spirit. It is so easy to fall back into the ways of the world. One only has to look at the
brokenness of our Lutheran life in North America (more than 30 different groups at last count, five
or so of which have significant numbers). The United Methodists are in the process of negotiating a
world-wide split, and Roman Catholics are in the news for their grievous enabling of sexual
predators for many decades.
As we have struggled (very constructively, I might add) with some difficult decisions on how to
respond to the stay-at-home orders due to the coronavirus, it struck me that we need to consider
how as followers of Jesus we make decisions as a congregation.
The way of our political environment is to split into two or more adversarial groups and try to
garner support by arguing with one another, often playing fast and loose with the truth. We magnify
the worst in the “other side,” and explain away the failings and faults of our own. Then we take a
vote and divide into “winners” and “losers.” In the political realm, a “winning” vote of 55% is
considered a landslide, and the 45 go off to lick their wounds and undermine the decisions and
actions of the winners.
I don’t like to take votes in the church except at the end of a long process of seeking consensus.
Our goal is not to create winners and losers, but to reach the point where we can say, “It has
seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us.” This takes a lot longer and is a lot harder than the
world’s way of making decisions. It also takes a lot of humility, and some of us with strong feelings
need to acknowledge that the Spirit may be leading the congregation into different directions than
we originally favored.
The former denomination of many of us (and many other ones) splintered because they adopted
the world’s way of making decisions. Well-funded interest groups advocated for their proposals,
and leadership was often dishonest and refused to take seriously those who disagreed. As Dr. Phil
might ask, “How did that work for you?”
We have a wonderful group of leaders and members at St. Timothy, and we work well together.
I have encouraged our Executive Committee and Council to strive for consensus, with prayer and
respectful listening not just to one another, but listening for the voice of the Holy Spirit speaking
through the other members.
My feeling is that if a congregational vote is not essentially unanimous on any matter, we didn’t
spend enough time and prayer working for consensus. And sometimes the Spirit is speaking
through that pesky minority who keep us from doing what we want.
Going forward, I urge you to continue working for unity and consensus. As we live in peace
with one another, Scripture promises that God of peace will beat down Satan under our feet.

Updated copies of the “Praying for the Members/Associate Members
of St. Timothy” are in the narthex. The Congregational Care
committee would like to encourage you to use the alphabetical listing

Sunday Worship
always an Easter celebration!
What was it like for Jesus right before His crucifixion? He
knew it would not be an easy death. The image of the cross must have haunted His thoughts
and filled Him with fear. No wonder Jesus prayed in the Garden “Father, everything is
possible for you. Take this cup from me” (Mark 14:36).
But there’s one thing that makes His prayer different from all the panicky prayers we say
when we’re scared out of our wits. Jesus added, “Yet not what I will, but what you will”.
Jesus desperately wanted to escape and yet He said to God, “Go ahead and let it happen if
that’s Your will”. Why?
Simple. He was focused on each one of us trapped in our fears and captive to the power of
sin, death, and the devil. To set us free, Jesus was willing to face fear Himself. And more
than that, He was willing to die. He walked through fear so He could rescue us from all our
fears.
Now, by His suffering, death, and resurrection, Jesus has become our rescuer from all evil!
Now, when we are afraid, we aren’t alone anymore. We have Jesus with us. He holds onto
us, protecting us from evil, because we are the people He loves. He comforts us. He’s
patient with us. He understands us, because He’s also known fear.
What a wonderful God we have! And what a joy it is to attend worship each Sunday
praising our loving God! An Easter celebration each and every Sunday!
Online Scripture Jigsaw Puzzles We have placed several jigsaw
puzzles on our website for you.
The puzzles are worked online
and take about 10 minutes to solve.
These jigsaw puzzles are created from Scripture
graphics from our online worship resource
called SOWER.
New puzzles will be uploaded regularly. Enjoy!

An Evangelism thought…special delivery!
“Jesus was delivered over to death for our sins
and was raised to life for our justification”
Romans 4:25
A company transferred a man to another country to establish their very first branch office.
While a great opportunity, the move meant that he would be away from his family for several
months. To help ease their time apart, the company provided special computers and cameras to
him and his family so they could connect with each other over the internet. Because of this
wonderful gift, they felt much less separated from each other!
Sin separates people from their heavenly Father. The break between God and man is very deep.
This break is so deep that many people don’t realize how sin affects their lives each and every
day. Many people don’t realize how God’s gift of eternal life in Jesus is their only remedy.
But, whenever you share the love of Jesus with people, the Holy Spirit is at work in their lives
providing a “special delivery” of God’s love.
It’s not so hard to do. Praying with a co-worker, sending a get-well card or an e-mail with a
Scripture verse, inviting a friend or a neighbor to join you at church for Sunday worship, and
comforting someone in mourning with the hope of the resurrection of Jesus, are just some of the
The Meaning of Liturgical Colors For the month of May, the colors of white and red will adorn the altar area.
White
This is the color of purity and divinity. White reinforces that message of joy.
In addition to its use during the Easter season, white is the appointed color for
such festive Sundays as the Ascension of Our Lord which occurs this year on
May 24th.
Red
Red is a color of power and strength. On May 31st we will be celebrating
Pentecost. This color represents the power and strength of the Holy Spirit.

Salem
Lutheran
Church 205 West Main
Street,
Elizabethville
In 1887 the Lutheran congregation decided
to erect a new brick church building at its
present site on the north side of West Main
Street. The Old Stone Church was built in
1760 on the site of the log church erected in
1744. The tower bell, which was removed
from the “Old Stone Church” was installed
in the steeple and the completed structure
was consecrated on Nov 16, 1890. In 1913
the west wing, library addition, and the
water powered Möller pipe organ were
added. In 1941 the present Möller pipe
organ, Opus 7026, was installed and in 1947
the Schulmerich Carillonic tower bells were
added in honor of our congregation’s
veterans. They voted to leave the ELCA and
joined the NALC on May 29, 2015. Sunday
services include worship at 9:00 am and
Sunday School at 10:30am. Rev. Nathan C.
Minnich STS is the 19th pastor of Salem
Lutheran Church.
