THE ENLIGHTENER September 2017

Message from the Pastor:

Jesus knew about ethnic hatred. Among his ethnic group, the most hated group of “others”

was the Samaritans – who were seen as close ethnic rela�ves who had had their genes and their

religious prac�ce adulterated by conquering na�ons. (The Samaritans saw themselves as the true de-

scendants of the people of Abraham and Moses). So when Jesus was asked “Who is my neighbor?”,

he told an illustra�ve story (a parable) about a man who had been mugged and le) for dead, and

several people who encountered him in that condi�on (see Luke, chapter 10). In the story, several

people who would be expected to be upstanding members of the injured man’s own community

passed by without helping. The only person who helped was a Samaritan. Jesus answered the

ques�on with a ques�on: “Which person in my story proved to be the injured man’s neighbor?” The

man who had asked the original ques�on answered, “The one who showed compassion (the

Samaritan).” Jesus said, “Go and do the same.” In other places in the Gospels, Jesus teaches his

followers, by word and by his behavior, to love and respect the “other”, even their enemies and those

who persecute them.

As I write this, our country has seen a display of ethnic hatred flaring into violence. Groups

claiming the superiority of white Chris�ans over other ethnic groups or religions have staged

demonstra�ons which have turned violent and resulted in death and injury. I am reminded of the

WWJD bracelets that were once popular (What Would Jesus Do?), and a bumper s�cker of the same

era that said “Jesus would slap the (*$%#) out of you.” While I do not think Jesus would slap anyone

around, he did “rebuke” his disciples when they wanted to call down fire on those who opposed Je-

sus, or when they grabbed a sword to defend him. I believe he would “rebuke” those who claim his

name, but proclaim white (and/or Chris�an) supremacy.

I call upon us to pray for peace and jus�ce in our society. I call upon us to hear the gospel of

Jesus and live it out. I call upon us to live as we have prayed so o)en, “Thy will be done on earth as it

is in heaven…deliver us from evil.”

In Christ’s love,

Pastor Ma> Stengel

Message from Deacon Dee Bishop Bruce Ough, president of the United Methodist Council of Bishops, issued the following statement on Charlottesville:

My shock, dismay and grief over the clashes between white supremacy advocates and counter-protesters in Charlottesville, Virginia, continue to grow. I grieve for the lives lost, and pray for the family of Heather Heyer, the families of the two state troopers killed while monitoring the Charlottesville demonstration from the air, and for the healing of all the injured. I am shocked by the blatant resurgence of white nationalism, neo-Nazism and racially motivated domestic terrorism in the United States. I am dismayed (and frightened) by the animosity, division, extremism and evil that is spiraling out of control in the U.S.

Let there be no excuses or political justification for the evil that was on full display in Charlottesville last Saturday. Nor, let us forget that many such displays of white supremacy, racism and hatred go un-reported or under-reported in many places. White supremacist and neo-Nazi ideologies are abhorrent and entirely inconsistent with the Christian faith.

Jesus called his followers to “love your neighbor.” It is clear this key spiritual imperative means all neighbors without regard to race, color, religion or national origin. And, Paul taught that “enmities, strife, jealousy, anger, quarrels, dissensions and factions” are among many works of the flesh that are antithetical to the kingdom of God. “By contrast, the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.” (Galatians 5: 19-23) These works of the Spirit lead to peace-making and the kingdom of God.

The Social Principles of our United Methodist Church are a clarion call and powerful witness in times such as these. “We affirm that no identity or culture has more legitimacy than any other. We call the Church to challenge any hierarchy of cultures or identities.” (Para. 161A, The Nurturing Community, page 110, 2016 Book of Discipline). And, from Para. 162A The Social Community, page 120: “Racism, manifested as sin, plagues and hinders our relationship with Christ, inasmuch as it is antithetical to the gospel itself … Therefore, we recognize racism as sin and affirm the ultimate and temporal worth of all persons … We commit as the Church to move beyond symbolic expressions and representative models that do not challenge unjust systems of power and access.”

Martin Luther King, Jr. echoed a similar sentiment when he challenged the United States to transform the thin paper of the Declaration of Independence that affirms the self-evident truth “that all men are created equal, are endowed with certain inalienable rights” into thick action.

I pray that the shock, dismay and grief of Charlottesville will be a turning point for the U.S. and even our global United Methodist church. We share collective responsibility to turn our thin words into thick action. We share collective responsibility to break our silence. We share collective responsibility to restore health to the communities and relationship out of which extremism, hatred and racism grow. We share collective responsibility, as followers of the Prince of Peace, to create non-violent communities where people with different political and religious views respect each other. We share responsibility to articulate the vision of the Beloved Community where no person feels endangered on account of their social, racial or cultural identity.

This collective responsibility begins by each of us examining our own hearts for the prejudice that contributes to attitudes of supremacy or hatred, or to violence, or silence or fear. Peacemaking and reconciliation always begins within.

This is the moment for The United Methodist Church and all peoples of faith to be bold in our witness against racism and white supremacy. The vision of the Beloved Community lies not behind us, but before us. I urge us to pray for the Holy Spirit to break through and work through The United Methodist Church to heal our broken world and make tangible, visible the kingdom on earth as it is in heaven.

Bishop Bruce R. Ough, President Council of Bishops The United Methodist Church

Chicken BBQ Drive Thru!

Thursday, September 21st 4:30—6:30pm (or until sold-out)

Chicken, Choice of 2 out of 4 sides, (Beans, Coleslaw, Potatoes, Macaroni Salad) Roll, and Brownie for $10.00

All proceeds to benefit the ministries at GUMC Invite your friends, family, and neighbors!

Your church needs your skills to con�nue

a tradi�on of success.

In recent years, we have developed a reputa�on

for running successful chicken barbeque events.

• Good food, good value, repeat customers.

• Good exposure for our church.

• Consistent profit to go toward our ministries.

• Rewarding par�cipa�on by members.

The process that makes this happen has been honed by Deacon

Dee, Pastor Ma>, and a number of dedicated volunteers.

We will con�nue to rely on the people who have led or served

on the various teams as they are willing and able to do so. But

we also need people to step up to replace Deacon Dee in

performing the overall coordina�on tasks.

We have developed a binder that details what is needed. If this

seems like a way that you might be able to serve, at least for

one BBQ event, please contact, Dee, Pastor Ma>, or Tom

Hinterman (967-5321).

A special thank-you to Joyce Benne� and

Zelma Kostyshak who contributed coolers

for our BBQs

Let’s Get Connected!

Excellent opportunity to share with your friends and family all the GUMC has to offer.

Thoughts from Co-Lay Leader Lisa Kostyshak…

Take Jesus to Work Day – Every Day

Many of us are familiar with Take Your Child To Work Day, it usually happens once a year. Some places also now have “Take Your Pet To Work Day”, believe it or not!

But, what about… “Take Jesus to Work Day”?

JOHN 14:15-17, NIV “If you love me, keep my commands. And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate to help you and be with you forever — the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you.

Jesus and his Spirit of Truth are with you

…when you are working to get that project done. …when you are making that critical customer presentation … …when you are finding a job… …when you are working with that difficult person…

How would your day be different if you intentionally took the love of Christ into your everyday routine?

How would people we interact with see us? Would we seem different? Would they know that we are Christians by our love?

Have you ever seen your job as a mission? How does your job further building of the kingdom on Earth? How do your actions and attitudes while you work bring people closer to Jesus?

What if you were trying to bring peace and comfort to individuals and families as you interact with them throughout the day, just by your attitude?

Redefine your work. If you do, perhaps you will experience greater satisfaction with your work knowing that you are partnering with Jesus in building his kingdom on Earth.

Give it a try. Share with me or someone else how this affects you, or those around you.
