Yes, There is a God
I look forward to May each year. For one
thing, the snow is (hopefully) over, the
perennial pond in our backyard has (hopefully)
dried up and flowers are springing up
everywhere. It is still too early for the hornets
and the songbirds are returning. Nights are
still cool, but the days are filled with glorious
sunshine. How does anyone still believe that
our earth and its creatures are because of some
primordial soup?
Look at anyone's body. Who but God could
create such intricate details? We come in every
size, shape and color, yet our organs are
interchangeable. We all have different gifts,
yet there are so many different kinds of talent
that they can be put together for everyone's
benefit. I could never be a doctor or nurse; I
would never want to be a carpenter or
plumber. Think about it--what would we do in
a society where no one wanted to be a farmer?
Or pick up your trash? Or teach your children
how to read?
God in his infinite wisdom has bestowed each
of us with a gift (or talent, if you prefer)
because we are meant to use it for the

harmony of humankind. Whether you are a
gifted professional or a talented tradesman
doesn't matter. Perhaps you can make someone
laugh. Maybe your words can connect with
someone's heart. Perhaps you have a way to
preach without being "preachy".
Whatever your gift, no matter how
insignificant you may believe, it was given to
you by your Creator for a reason. It was given
to you to share.
When you look at the bright blue skies of
May, and you see the crops and flowers coming
out of their sleep, well, it's time to remember
that all of this plus whatever talent you
possess, was a gift to be used for the glory of
God and the welfare of God’s people.
Your servant in Christ,

Women’s Health
“Lord, doesn’t it seem unfair to you that my sister just sits here while I do all the work? Tell her to come and help me!” Luke 10:40 NLT
Are you a Mary who is eager to sit back and learn new things or a Martha who worries about the details of a job and is upset when others can’t multitask? Throughout the ages women have been taught to be organizers, nurturers, and caretakers for others while neglecting their own needs and desires. Even today you are expected to be superwomen and excel in the roles of wife, mother, daughter, volunteer, employee, caretaker, protector, and businesswoman. Unfortunately while accomplishing these tasks, women forget the most important tasks of a healthy life - balance and self-care.
You probably intellectually understand the importance of annual checkups and health screenings but often find excuses to ignore health issues because of the belief that caring for others is more important. In order to have the energy to care for others, it is important that you practice wholistic self-care. This means taking the time to rest, enjoy friends, and care for self.
Caring for the mind, spirit, and relationships through hobbies, meditation, morning devotions, lunch with friends, date or family night with a spouse or family will establish balance and stability. These activities will result in lower blood pressure, peace of mind, greater enjoyment of family, and renewed energy to tackle the difficulties of life and are just as important as medical appointments and screenings where health issues can be found before they become serious issues.
Being too involved in your work allows very little time for other things in life so take a look at how your day is spent and ask yourself how you can re-prioritize your activities. Plan ways to add personal time to your day and practice those changes. By balancing the work and fun in your life, you will experience immediate benefits of greater joy and fewer headaches.

Dear Rev. Piccirilli,
Inter-Church Ministries of Erie County gratefully acknowledges receipt of your congregation’s contribution in the amount of $156 given in support of Inter-Church Ministries of Erie County and representing a part of your congregation’s Second Mile Giving Stewardship for January.
We thank you for your generous support of ecumenical ministry in the area and our efforts to minister to God’s people in need. We pledge to use your gifts wisely as good stewards in our efforts to build up the Body of Christ in our community. We remain in constant need of your prayers and support.
Again, our deepest gratitude.
Yours in Christ,
Johnny C. Johnson
President, Inter-Church Ministries
Dear Messiah Lutheran Church: Our family had the pleasure of attending the inaugu-ral Lifetime Achievement dinner honoring five mem-bers of Messiah, one of whom was our father, for their longstanding devotion to the church and their church family. Not one of these members did what they did for the recognition. Instead, they served with a deep sense of commitment to their Christian faith. It was a wonder-ful evening filled with many warm memories, laughs, and genuine fellowship. We would like to thank the members of Messiah and those who attended for making the night so special, and for their warm remembrances of dad. We cannot forget to thank all those who were involved in planning and executing the dinner as well. This same selfless giving of their time and talents is really what the dinner was in celebration of, and so the circle of stewardship contin-ues. Messiah has so many wonderful and deserving members in the congregation. We would hope this be-comes an annual tradition so that others can be recog-nized for their devotion and stewardship.
