Martha’s Musings . . .I leave August 1 for two weeks of continuing education in Scotland.
The first week I will stay at the manse of a Church of Scotland minister inGlasgow. It will be a wonderful opportunity to see first hand how church isdone there. I will also be able to see the great art collections in Glasgow aswell as visit important sites in church history. From Glasgow I go to theIsle of Lismore, on the west coast near Oban for a post-doctoral seminarconducted by Pittsburgh Theological Seminary. Dr. David Fergusson ofthe University of Edinburgh will lead an international group of students inthe study, The Reformation and Its Theological Legacy. Following theseminar, I will take the ferry three hours out into the Atlantic for a few
days on the Isle of Tiree. Tiree looks like Hawaii, has wonderful sea life to watch and has apopulation of about 200.
So why go all the way to Scotland to study? (Other than the 60 degree temperatures!) Twoterms of my doctorate were done at the University of Aberdeen. I discovered then how much Ilearn when I am in a new and unfamiliar context. I learn news ways to perceive things. I realizedthat issues very important to the U.S. churches were not necessarily the issues important tochurches in Scotland or on the European continent. In others words, I gain new eyes when I studyabroad. I always come home with new understandings about people and their lives. My vision isenlarged.
I look forward to the trip. I will bring home lots of pictures and stories. While I’m awayHarry Tysen will preach and serve communion on August 8. On August 15, Harry will lead agospel sing. Don’t miss these exciting Sundays.
Love,Martha

The four attendants will be giving abrief 10-15 minute presentation to the church on Sunday August 1st duringthe service. Be sure to attend so you can hear about the trip and see some oftheir pictures.
The INTERGENERATIONAL MISSION TRIPtraveled to St. Louis for the Urban Mission Camp. We were in St. Louisfrom the 11th to the 16th of July and can now confirm those are the hottestdays of the years in Missouri. We worked for the Kingdom house painting,gardening and doing general fix it up work. We also were able to help with alow income nursery and help rehabilitate a elderly gentleman's home. We
sang songs, ate really well, and had wonderful devotions. We also got to see the arch, the St. LouisCardinals, and the animals at the zoo.We had 23 mission goers and all had a wonderful time. We will be presenting about the trip at theLast Sunday Brunch on August 29th so be sure and attend.
