Kitchen Talk—What You Need to Know “The kitchen is the heart of the home,” they say. Can that also be said for the kitchen at church? We Lutherans like to joke (it’s not just a Lutheran thing) that we can’t have a gathering without gathering around food. Every meeting has a treat, a snack, a meal, or at least coffee. We use food to celebrate and to comfort—at weddings, funerals, parties, Lenten meals, Shrove Tuesday pancake feeds, and fundraisers. And, as many point out, “We’ve been doing fine for years, so why are we talking about the kitchen now?” First of all, we’ve been talking about this kitchen for the last 20 years. We’ve run up against roadblocks—not everyone is on board—or it hasn’t seemed like the right time to do it. Something is always coming up. Well, it’s time to talk about what we’re doing in this kitchen, why we’re talking about renovating, and why the old excuses aren’t working anymore (quite frankly, it’s never the right time to do a major campaign for money). So, here’s what we know. The original kitchen (1952) was a small room off the south side of the Fellowship Hall. If you want a look, it’s the one with the split door that has been used as the Sunday School office for many years. It had one sink and one over and very little counter space. And yet, the women of the congregation served funeral luncheons and wedding receptions out of there like pros. But they recognized that as the congregation grew, they couldn’t contin-ue working out of such an insufficient space. When the education wing was built on in 1958, space was added to accommodate a larg-er kitchen. The church women were informed that they had their space, but there was no money for appliances. Together, they pushed for a $10,000 loan which they paid off through fundraisers in order to supply what they needed. They knew better than anyone what it would take to make their kitchen work. Fast-forward nearly 60 years, hundreds of funeral luncheons, midweek meals, and FEAST meals, and the kitchen has changed very little. However, it no longer serves the current needs of those who use it most. To be honest, the most frequent use is FEAST meals, which are served weekly by volunteers, supplying meals for anywhere between 50-100 people. These volunteers (from OSLC, as well as other congregations) recognize some challenges we did not have 60 years ago:

The Quest Inside for Uniting Spirit (Q.I. for U.S.)
Daily Spiritual Practice: Beauty
Always Do Your Best Discover beauty in everyone.
~Romans 12:17a
It can be challenging to find beauty this time of year; especially amidst the season of winter. Plants have died back, trees have lost their leaves, and the grass has stopped growing. Often the skies are gray and gloomy and the sun doesn’t cast the same amount of warmth and light as in other seasons of the year. This month, I invite you to find beauty in your every day. Whether in your home, at work, or just out and about. Look for it in people, things, memories, and creation. Where is beauty lurking? How can you notice it? Simply focus on things that you find beautiful. For example, with people it’s easy to notice. Maybe someone is dressed well, or has beautiful eyes or facial features. But what about their soul? Do you ever look for the soul in another? Most are quite beautiful - take the time to notice. It requires looking in someone’s eyes and paying attention to what you see. Don’t focus on their outer self, look for their inner self. You'll know it when you see it. Or maybe you are drawn to things such as a favorite piece of art. If possible, spend some time with the image every day. It doesn’t matter what it is - a bowl, a picture, a color of paint, a piece of furniture. Whatever object brings you joy, spend time observing its beauty wherev-er you find it. With memories, take time to reflect back on meaningful moments. The life “highlights” (birth, marriage, graduations, etc.) are an easy place to start. But take some time to look deeper. Think about shared moments, spontaneous times of laughter or joy, deep conversations or any experience with another person that expresses a form of beauty. We live on such a beautiful and amazing planet. There are many places of great beauty, not only locally, but across our country and the world. If you don’t have personal photos of beautiful places, there are many ways to find them on-line or in books. Or take a walk in your favorite neighborhood or local park. Be in nature and marvel at its beauty, even in January. In observing beauty you are reflecting on something that is good. Those good feelings change our perspective and give us hope. We live on such a beautiful planet that there is something beautiful for each and everyone of us. Take time this month to seek out something of beauty and just enjoy it. I pray that you are surrounded by beauty each and every day.

The sinks and their plumbing are inadequate for the usage. *They are too small to wash the roasters.
*They back up regularly—the floor will need to be dug up and the plumbing replaced, regardless whether we renovate the kitchen or not.
*We do not have the required 3-sink system required for public food service (though we are not-for- profit, we’ve been lucky that this has not yet been a problem for us).
We go through 3-4 trash bags of plastic, paper, and Styrofoam tableware because we can’t accommodate using real dishes.
We have insufficient storage for refrigeration and freezers. *We have freezers stored in the back stairway—this is a fire hazard.
We are unable to cook on-site, so food has to be cooked at home and brought in. *The stoves are incapable of facilitating large cooking operations. *By code, we don’t have the venting and fire suppression systems required for cooking in our space—this is
a fire hazard. These are only some of the issues that we have presented to the congregation. There are also concerns and fears about moving forward. How much will it cost? If we can’t even meet our budget (we’re $20,000 behind, folks), should we even be considering this? We’ve been doing fine for this long. What is the rush? Will we even have ministries like the FEAST in 10 years? Or, more poignantly, will we even be around in 10 years? These are legitimate and rational concerns. But we also have some incredibly exciting possibilities should we decide to move forward with the renovation. We might be able to house a preschool for LPS. We could sponsor more fundraisers. We could teach cooking classes for any number of people (those looking for work, parents on a budget, kids who want
to eat healthier). We might be a preparation site for meal deliveries to people in the community. We could practice better stewardship of the environment—and possibly save money in the long-run.
Some of these opportunities also make us very appealing to grant programs such as Lincoln Community Health Endowment. We do have members who are poised and ready to start working on grant proposals as soon as we have a plan in place, a budget to work with, and an income commitment from our congregation—and, perhaps, our neighbors.
So, here’s what comes next. We have spent two weekends talking about these details and would be happy to visit with indi-viduals in more depth. As soon as we vote on a new mission statement in February (because we need to know what we’re about before we decide how we are going to live that out), the council hopes to propose that we move forward with the kitchen renovation project. It will be a very simple proposal that won’t include numbers or scope. We just want to know whether this congregation is behind moving forward.
Then, we’ll start working with the numbers. How much are we willing to spend? How far can we extend ourselves? How will we finance this? Do we need to scale back the drawings that we’ve made to start with (which, by the way, is just a starting point so that we will have numbers to work with)? Do we want to do the Fellowship Hall at the same time? How much more will it cost if we do them in phases? Who will we use to help us run our campaign?
At every step of the way, we welcome your input. We know that voting on the concept before having the numbers feels a bit risky. But this is no different than deciding it’s time to get a new car. You decide—then you look at what you’ve saved and what your budget is—and then you start shopping. It takes time. We’ll take our time, too. Most importantly, we hope that this congregation will get solidly behind whatever we decide as a body—whether to move forward or to keep things as they are. There are far too many things to divide us. We don’t need one more. At the end of the day, we want to be able to say that we’re about the mission and love of God—however that looks in this time and this place.

A special "thank you" to Jim and Gladys Meyer for delivering your donations to the pantry each month. FEAST Meals As we begin a new year, we are looking for groups to serve FEAST on Sunday. Serving a meal gives the opportunity to get to know our FEAST partners and know how much they appreciate your work.

Layettes with LOVE
For more than 17 years, a group of women has gathered in the Fellowship Hall on the first Saturday of each month to assemble layettes for newborns in our com-munity. The Nebraska Chapter of Newborns in Need (a 401-3C charity) will dis-solve at the end of this calendar year but the mission of this group of quilters, seamstresses and needle-workers will continue – under the name of Layettes With LOVE. A layette is kind of an old term for a tangible gift to welcome a new baby with essential elements needed for their care. We make quilts, blankets, my-blankies, washcloths, bibs, burp cloths, diaper bags, hats and booties. We pur-chase at garage sales and discount stores, outfits for newborns, onesies, socks and sleepers. Once a month we gather and assemble these items into layettes that are then delivered to local agencies like the Center for People in Need, Lancaster County Health Department, Catholic Social Services and Pregnancy Crisis Center. These agencies connect the layettes with mothers and families in our community. How can OSL help in this ongoing effort?
Collect Best Choice labels (from products sold at Russ’ Markets) and bring to the church. When 1000 labels are sent to the redemption center in Kansas City, they will pay $30. We use this money to buy fabric and yarn to keep our volunteers supplied. We have several shut-ins in the community that knit and crochet hats and booties and little sweater sets for us.
Donate yarn and suitable materials when you clean out your craft closet or find a good buy (like the suoer size skeins of yarn at Walmart in red, yellow, pink or light blue.- they are great for making crib-size blankets and usually cost under six dollars)
Donate gift cards to Hobby Lobby, Michaels and Wallmart. We want to spend our time sewing or knitting for the babies rather than managing cash donations or maintaining a bank account, etc. We can take gift cards to the stores and get the resources we currently need. Our volun-teers have more time and talent to contribute than cash, so we prefer this way of accessing resources.
We appreciate the meeting space OSL provides us and the small area for storage of extra materials. We try to get everything out to agencies right away rather than stored. In business they call this “just in time inventory”.
Join us on the first Saturday of each month from 10am-noon to assemble some layettes. It is fun to match colors and put it all together AND see the handiwork of our volunteers. We have Girl Scout troops come oc-casionally to earn a badge or families come to contribute a few hours to this kind of community service.
Pray for all babies in our community and their mothers who strive to create a healthy and loving environment to support them.
If you have questions, contact Jan Riedman – OSL Outreach.
