April 10, 2016

"They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need." Acts 2:45

With New York's Democratic and Republican primaries coming up (April 19th) and this year's presidential race being a seemingly bigger (and stranger) race than we've had in recent memory, politics are ram-pant. Luckily, we won't be talking about politics today, but one of the candi-dates hoping to become our nation's next president, probably likes the above passage more than the rest. You could say, that as you read the above verse, you too might think the Apostles of the early church were feel-ing the Bern? It's true that the early church reported itself to be far more socialist in it's economics than most American's would like. Honestly the financial model the early church used is really not important, but what does matter is WHY they did what they did. Those first Christians understood that a key part of being a follower of Jesus, and being his representatives here on earth, was to care for others. This fundamental need to care is no less crucial for the church today. So join us today as we reaffirm our need to care and explore some ways that we can do this in the midst of a world sorely in need of God's love and care!

What We Believe

...the living core of the Christian faith is revealed in scripture, illumined by tradition, vivified in personal experience, and confirmed by reason.

...the one God we worship exists fundamentally within a community of the three per-sons of Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

…God’s son, Jesus, came to live among us as fully divine and fully human. His life, death, and resurrection points to and fulfills the good news of the freedom from sin and death, which we proclaim.

...we share one mission with Christians throughout time, to make disciples of Jesus Christ.

...it is into community (koinonia) that we have been called to coexist and through this community that we are able to truly manifest the body of Christ.

…wherever you are on your journey, we are here for one another!

“In Essentials Unity, In Non-Essentials Liberty, In All Things Charity.”

Vitamin D3 the Sunshine Vitamin– The Facts and Benefits Vitamin D3, also known as the sunshine vitamin, is produced by our bodies through the action of sunlight on the skin. It’s estimat-ed that sun exposure on bare skin for 5-10 minutes, 2-3 times a week allows the body to produce sufficient Vitamin D. Unfortu-nately this vitamin has to be replenished frequently. This can be difficult especially in the winter. Recent studies suggest that up to 50% of adults and children worldwide are deficient in this vitamin. Eighty percent of all hip fractures are thought to be the result of a

deficiency also! Why is Vitamin D3 so important? It has multiple roles in our body. It regulates calcium and phosphorous absorption which help maintain healthy and strong bones and teeth. In adults a deficiency can lead to poor bone densi-ty, weakness and fractures in the spine, hips and arms etc. (not to mention bone loss in the jaw affecting the teeth.) In children a deficiency can cause rickets, characterized by a bowlegged

appearance caused by softening of the bones. Vitamin D3 supports a healthy brain, immune, and nervous system. It also helps regulate insulin

levels, support lung function and cardiovascular health. The list goes on and on. How do you know if you are deficient in Vitamin D3? If you have poor eating habits and little sun exposure you probably need more. Your doctor can check your Vitamin D levels. If you’re deficient over the counter Vitamin D3 might be ordered. A healthy diet including fish, eggs and fortified milk along with some sun exposure is usually all one needs to have enough Vitamin D. It’s important that you know if you need Vitamin D before you start taking it. People often take mega doses unnecessarily which can be harmful. Consult with

your healthcare provider. Wishing good health to you! Your parish nurses, Linda and Judy
