WATERLOO FIRST UNITED METHODIST CHURCH

PAGE 2 JUNE 12, 2015 THE HERALD

Dear Waterloo First family,

July is going to be an exciting month

for us and I can’t wait to see the

hope and joy that God has in store

for us! July is going to start with a

bang when we have a special

baseball service on July 5th. The

love of the game spans generations

and connects communities so I hope

you will join us on July 5th to learn

insights about the game and our

faith and leave feeling inspired to

say, “Put me in, coach!” If you have

a favorite team jersey or shirt, feel

free to wear it in worship too! On

July 9th, we will go to a Waterloo

Buck’s baseball game as a church

family. Tickets are only $4. Let the

church office know if you’d like to go

and how many tickets you’d like to

order. This baseball game will be a

great night to get to know one

another and a wonderful

opportunity for you to introduce a

friend to your church family. What

baseball fan could you invite to

worship with us in July?

July 12th is going to be another fun

Sunday in worship as we learn how

to see that God is all around us,

even in the Lego Movie! Everything

is awesome, but sometimes we

don’t feel awesome. When we find

ourselves living life according to the

world’s ways, it’s easy to just blend

in and be a face in the crowd, but

deep down, we all want to be

special, we want to know and live

into the unique purpose and passion

that God dreams for our lives. On

July 12th, you’ll see just how special

you are and how awesome things

can be when you follow God’s ways.

On Sunday night we will gather back

together to watch the Lego Movie in

the sanctuary. Pop and popcorn will

be provided and you can feel free to

bring snacks to share. The church

will open at 5pm and we will start

watching the movie at 5:30pm in

the sanctuary.

Our summer book club will be

meeting on July 18th at the

parsonage, 930 Sunrise Blvd, to

discuss the book, “What We Talk

About When We Talk About God.”

In this book, Rob Bell writes about

the God who is with us, for us, and

ahead of us, pulling us forward into

a better future—and ready to help

us live life to the fullest. If you’ve

ever wondered what it means to

follow the God that we meet in Christ, a God that isn’t mean, illogical or

primitive, than this book is for you.

On July 22nd, we will have a backyard bible BBQ for a Wednesday Night

at Nate’s. In the early church, worship happened around the table in

people’s homes where they would share a meal with one another as

they prayed for and encouraged each other. This July we’re going to

have a potluck and try to recreate the love and community that made

the early church what it is. I will be making hotdogs and brats, and you

can bring a side dish.

Finally, this fall we are

going to have a new

church shirt, made

especially for rally day,

Sunday, September 13th.

The red shirt says,

“Receive Love. Give Love.

Repeat. Waterloo First

UMC”

My dream for our church

in the coming years is

that we can all open our

hearts to the love that God has for us so that we can be the body of

Christ at work in the world that is strengthened by the Spirit to open our

hearts up even more. This shirt will be a reminder to us and to all that

see it that our faith is all about relationships. Through our faith, we

receive love from God and we give love to one another, and repeat as

often as we can. The final cost of the shirt will depend some on the

number of orders, and all proceeds will go to support the work of

“Change a Child’s Story” as we make sure every child in Waterloo has a

book to call their own.

Grace and Peace,

Nate Nims

Larry Kies &

Africa University

The Matthew 25 Committee will be holding a

special offering on Sunday, June 28 for our

missionary in Africa, Larry Kies. Larry is a

faculty member at Africa University.

Africa University is a United Methodist Church-related institution that is being

nurtured and funded by church members from all over the world. It is a

consequence of the growth of United Methodism on the African continent

and has its foundations in the history and legacy of the church. Africa

University opened in March 1992 as the first private, international university

in Zimbabwe.

Reflecting on his ministry, Mr. Kies shares, “I am in mission with the African

people as we manage a commercial-scale farm that demonstrates

appropriate farming methods. Students, even those not studying

agriculture, are exposed to sustainable practices, as many work part-time

on the farm to help pay their school fees. In teaching, I hope to reinforce in

students a Christian outlook toward farming and business, since many of

them will be the African leaders of the future. By so doing, I hope to obey

Jesus’ command, implicit in Matthew 25, to feed the hungry.”

The Matthew 25 Committee thanks you for your past support of Larry's

ministry and we hope you will consider a gift to Larry on June 28. Checks can

be made payback to the Church with "Advance #09572Z" in the memo

line. Thank you!

Join Nate at the Parsonage,

930 Sunset in Waterloo, at

11 am on July 18th to discuss:

“What We Talk When We

Talk About God” by Rob Bell

Books can be purchased on-

line at Amazon or Barnes & Nobles in hard copy or digital, book store or

borrowed from the library. Let the church know if you need help purchasing

a book.

Women at the Well UMC will be the focus of

the Matthew 25 committee in July. There

will be a special offering. . At the current

time, the best way to support their work as a

church, and their Reentry Program, is with

monetary gifts. The Clothing Closet was

closed by the Iowa Correctional Institution

for Women some time ago, due to the new construction happening at the

facility. As a result, no new collections of materials are able to happen. We

have been given no date for the potential reopening of a Clothing Closet.

They are unable to accept any donations other than money at this time.

The Matthew 25 committee intends to take a field trip to worship with the

Women at the Well on a Thursday evening in December. Stay tuned for the

exact date, everyone will be welcomed. In the mean time, we can support

this ministry with our gifts.

Camp Musicmania, Here We Come!

A the time of this writing, we are poised and ready to take 24 children to Camp Musicmania!

Because of you, the members of Waterloo First United Methodist Church, and your willingness to

step out in faith, we have scholarship money and most important of all . . .TRANSPORTATION.

There are lots of reasons why we continue to provide music enrichment opportunities. The music

teacher at Orange Elementary in Waterloo, stated it this way in telling parents “WHY TEACH

MUSIC,”

Most importantly, Music is Art . . .

It allows us to express emotion-the thing that makes us most human.

We teach music not because we expect students to play/sing for all of their lives, not just so they

can relax and have fun, but so that they will be HUMAN, so that they recognize BEAUTY, so that

they feel a part of something larger than themselves . . .

Over 200 children will be participating in Camp Musicmania this year. They will be playing,

singing, relaxing and having fun. But more importantly, they will feel a part of something larger

than themselves. And as a result we, the members of Waterloo First United Methodist Church, will

also feel a part of something larger than ourselves.

By the time you read this Camp will be almost over. However, on Friday, June 19 you will have one

more opportunity to participate. You can be part of the audience! The K-3 performance will begin

at 2:00 and the 4-9 performance will begin at 3:30. The performance will take place in Russell Hall.

Parking is available by Gilchrist, Gallagher-Bluedorn, and Schindler Education Center (Latham

Lot). Come and see the results of our efforts. Be prepared to be amazed!

Wednesday Night at

Nate’s

Join Nate at 6:30 pm on Wednesday,

July 22nd at the parsonage,

930 Sunrise Blvd, Waterloo, for a

Backyard Bible BBQ! Nate will cook hot dogs and brats and we can all

bring a dish to share as we gather to pray for and encourage each

other to recreate the way it was in the early church.

KEEPERS OF THE FAITH MINISTRY– Sunday, July 15th

After being in many different singing groups, a Father and 3 sons had decided

to establish a singing ministry known as "The Taito Family" in the year 1997.

It was then, they began their journey in singing and ministering together as a

family. As the years went by, they felt the calling of God to move from Hawaii

to Washington State where they're continuing to minister as a family singing

group till this day.

Pastoral Counseling

Services Offered

Looking for a place to talk, to find hope or to help heal? I am partnering with

WFUMC to develop low cost counseling opportunities offered to members of

our congregation and our community. This is a very new endeavor that

hopefully will be growing and taking shape over the summer. I would like to

begin by extending an invitation to anyone who is looking for a safe and

confidential space to talk—or if you know of someone in need, please pass

the word along! An initial consultation can be scheduled by contacting the

church office, or me directly at 319-415-1528. I am also looking at a possible

offering of spirituality support groups. If you are interested in a particular

topic (grief/loss, forgiveness, divorce, etc.) please feel free to contact me with

a suggestion.

Who am I? I am currently a Certified Candidate for Ordination in the UMC,

Deacon Track. I received my seminary training from Duke Divinity School at

Duke University, and am currently a student at Candler School of Theology,

Emory University, working towards my Th.d in Pastoral Counseling. I had the

privilege of serving as a resident chaplain at the VA Medical Center in

Durham, NC, for one year, and have worked as a resident counselor towards

licensure at the Care and Counseling Center of Georgia the previous 3 years.

Areas of interest include: grief and loss, depression, addiction, spirituality, life

transitions, veteran concerns and PTSD, couples counseling, divorce, LGBT

and gender identity issues, adult ADHD, borderline and other personality

disorders, bi-polar and support counseling of other mental illnesses.

—Joey Ann Podhajsky, M.Div

The Walking School Bus project at Irving this spring proved to be a fun and

rewarding experience for adults and kids alike. On the one route we

piloted we usually had 3-5 youngsters and 2-3 adults "riding" the bus. This

was great healthy exercise for all of us and a wonderful chance to get to

know some of the Irving kids. One volunteer said she gained so much

when she started her day with this activity...she could tell a difference in

how much more energized and positive she felt when she got to work!

From another volunteer: . It always appeared to me the kids looked

forward to our "walk home"". It didn't take much time on my part and the

staff at the school were very friendly and appreciative as well. I'll

definitely do it again. Even makes me want to volunteer more at Irving.

Having a sense of purpose and "moving" are two of the Blue Zones keys to

a longer, healthier life. The Walking School Bus gives us both!

More adult volunteers are needed if we are to continue this project and

add more routes. We're going to work with the school to recruit parents

to join us, but we need more FUMC folks on our team!

You would only need to commit to a 15 minute walk starting at 7:55 am

and/or at 3:30 pm (no early dismissals next year). We'd like to start up in

the fall and "run the busses" so long as the weather is good.

If this is a possibility for you, please contact Sharon Miller at 232-7659.

Ad Team Minutes—May 21, 2015—Submitted by Kim Chapman, Secretary

Present: Joe Pryor, Jack Wright, Mark Sanborn, Pastor Nate, Phil Miller, Bev McCadam, Prudy Klinger, Lee Stonewall, Kim Chapman

The meeting was called to order at 7:06 p.m. by Chairman Jack Wright.

Review Minutes from April Meeting The April 16, 2015 meeting minutes were reviewed. Moved by Phil Miller, seconded by Prudy Klinger to accept the minutes as printed. Motion carried.

Pastor Nate reported the agreement with Cedar Valley’s Promise was signed Monday, May 18. Their insurance company is reviewing the agreement. Building keys were given to Diane Derifield and to the intern, Christine. One of their first tasks will be to survey the neighborhood by first talking to businesses, then to residents. They will be using the dinette Tuesdays and Thursdays to begin a small program and will gradually move in, but no official date for opening of The Hub has been set. The church committee who will meet quarterly to review the arrangements is Pastor Nate, the Trustee Chair, the Ad Team Chair and the Lay Leader.

Committee Reports

Joe Pryor, Trustees—the former treasurer office has been cleared out for use by Cedar Valley’s Promise. Phone lines have been disconnected in that office as CVP will be using their own phones. The trustees and ushers will work with the fire department on developing emergency plans, maybe including a fire drill. There was discussion of a defibrillator. The flat roofs are being worked on. The air conditioners in the offices have been replaced or repaired. Joe has been going through old document files and they are now sitting in the VonLackum Lounge to be shredded. Document shredding will be opened up for the congregation and personal papers. Bids have been received for replacing eleven windows ranging from $9,000 to $27,000. The Town and Country bid for $17,000 will be approved. Bids are also being taken for tuck-pointing. The office store room has been cleaned out with ten boxes of books to be given to Love Packages, an organization that will be shipping books to other countries. The parsonage flower bed has been removed and will be seeded; the plastic caps on the basement windows have been replaced; the refrigerator was removed from the garage; the side garage door was replaced.

Mark Sanborn, Finance—there are no documents from the accounting firm yet this month. April apportionments were paid. A financial review is being worked on. The weekly offerings is being reported each week in the worship bulletin and seems to be well-received.

Phil Miller, Music—the choir will be off for the summer and will return in

September.

Bev McCadam, Membership—another breakfast is scheduled around Thanksgiving time. July 9 will be the congregational date for a Waterloo Bucks baseball game. Visitation is going well. Transportation for the Music Mania students is being scheduled with a ride-along person needed and one driver for a 2:30 ride needed.

Prudy Klinger, At-large—122 meals were served last night at Dinner with Neighbors. There were 140 meals served Monday at Community Meals.

Lee Stonewall, UMW—the couch and chairs for Hartman Hall have been ordered. Some closets were cleaned out, along with UMW documents being cleaned out. Lee mentioned that all UMW minutes must be kept.

Presentation from Jaymee Glenn-Burns on the Healthy Church Initiative

The Healthy Church Initiative is an intentional leadership development process designed to enhance the skills of pastors and laity to lead growing, vibrant, spirit-filled churches. It is a leadership development process that keeps a church looking ahead three to five years. The three main components are continuous learning, consultation and coaching. There is a series of workshops where church leaders, both pastors and laity, participate in continuous learning opportunities. With the approval of the church council and pastor, the congregation may apply for an on-site consultation. At the close of the consultation, the congregation would receive up to five “prescriptions”, which would outline areas of ministry to address for the future growth and development of the church. If the church council votes to accept the prescriptions in full, they will receive up to two years of coaching support to pursue goals related to the prescriptions. The consultation fee is $300, and the coaching fee is $1800, which can be paid in $600 installments.

Pastor Nate commented the congregation has gone through a similar process with the What If? Project; that was before he was assigned to our church. We will share this information with the congregation for feedback.

Moved by Joe Pryor, seconded by Lee Stonewall to adjourn. Motion carried. The meeting adjourned at 8:08 p.m. The next meeting will be planned for August 20, unless there is a need for one before then.
