into unchartered territory, this same hero of our land, once again looked forward, not backward. He set up a firing range on the White House lawn, testing new weaponry. He also lifted a human observer of war in a military balloon 500 feet over the White House lawn. It was on this young leader’s watch that the military began the shift from the musket to the rifle, changing the effect of war on every battlefront for all of time.

That young boy with tears in his eyes at his mother’s grave grew to become the lawyer and president in our examples above. We know him well as Abraham Lincoln. Abe is a fine teacher in so many ways, including glancing back to where we have come from, but having the courage to move ahead and do things we never thought possible. And he never forgot the love of his mother!

That is the same with our Lord. He would not have us stuck in the past, but glancing there with memories and courageously moving ahead with our lives, giving us purpose and meaning in our days ahead. Merely glance in that rearview mirror, keeping your focus on the adventure ahead.

*Lincoln and the Rock Island Bridge Case - Daily Press of Chicago, Sept. 24, 1857

How the Telegraph Helped Lincoln Win the Civil War, by Tom Wheeler

Lincoln and the Tools of War, by Robert V. Bruce

Someone once said, “If you stare into the rearview mirror, you will end up in the ditch.”

What if we only did everything the way we had always done them and never sought improvements? We would still be in the stone age! What if we stayed at the places of our losses and our emotional injuries? We would never move forward with our lives.

As an example, years ago, a young boy’s mother was not strong, fell sick and died. She was buried on the family farm. Her young grieving boy used to go out and sit by her lonely grave in the forest and cry. It was the first great sorrow that had ever touched the boy's heart. When his dad was preparing the family to move to another state, the father could not find his boy. The lad was found at the grave, weeping. What if he had “stayed there” in his thinking? Did he have the courage to move forward with his life? Could he find a purpose for his future?

For us, we can look backwards and stay where we have come from, or we can glance back now and then while we continue focus on the adventure ahead.

In another example, there once was a young lawyer who fought for the

rights of the railroad to move west across the mighty Mississippi. Steamboat river men who made their liveli-hood in boat-trafficking goods and services across the Big Muddy fought hard against the railroad making its way across that river. The river men “accidentally” crashed a boat into the first new trestle and then fought in court that such a structure was a hazard to navigation. That young lawyer went to bat for the railroad, seeing the advantage of this new iron horse to connect the country. The lawyer won the case. He was willing to expand new horizons and leave the old behind.

That same lawyer, when it came to saving the nation we love dearly, was willing to embrace new ideas to accomplish his goal. A few steps from his residence, he would spend countless hours, sometimes resting on a cot, in order to “remotely con-trol” (electronically) a war effort, communicating with his generals instantly and their every move. He knew this had never been done before. He was willing to let the old messenger-man on a horse fade from importance and embrace new methods to accomplish that goal.

When state-of-the-art weaponry was morphing

must have a few fundamental items memorized.

The Ten Commandments

The order of books from the New Testament

Remember one simple coaching point, “Eat the elephant one bite at a time.”

That is, we suggest doing one item per week, or even one every two weeks.

And voila, they are finished!

Memory work assistance is being offered on several days in August. Please

Sincere thanks from the Board of Ed

On behalf of the

Board of Education, I

would like to thank

everyone who helped in

any way to make VBS such

a success this summer.

First of all, to those

of you who sent your

child(ren) to participate.

Obviously the children

made it all happen!

Secondly, to the

host families who took in

the Camp Luther

staff. Camp staff really

enjoyed meeting these

families.

Thirdly, to all the

adults and youth who

volunteered time and

talents to put this

together. What a great

group of volunteers!

Fourthly, to the

congregation that supported

VBS by donating food,

money and other supplies

that we needed. From

the person who made sure

the fence was erected for

the game area, to the family

who decorated the front

windows with their great

artistic talent. From the

Pastors who told Bible

stories each day to

Michelle, in the office, who

covered many bases! I

think it is clear that many

people stepped up to the

plate and made it easier for

everyone!

Because of your

help, we were able to share

our faith with 64 little

people. Hopefully,

someday they‟ll do the

same!

The new youth

board leaders, Whitney

Hunter and Avra Juhnke,

would like to invite

National Youth Gathering

2010 attendees to the

newest Bible study at Our

Saviour Lutheran Church.

The study will take place Sundays at 7:00 p.m. in the youth room. It can be expected that the sessions will last about an hour each week. Both Hunter and Juhnke have attended a NYG before and just wanted to keep the energy and faith pumping through their veins when they returned to Green Bay. This is a way for this

year’s attendees to do just that. NYG 2010 attendees can expect, “fun fellowship and snacks,” said Hunter. The ladies will decide the subject of each week’s study the week prior so the youth are encouraged to bring ideas and suggestions. The first week will consist of a casual get together to reminisce, tell stories and brainstorm future study themes and ideas. Hunter also said

that students who did not

go on the trip are still more

than welcome to join the

Bible study.

The ladies also plan

on hosting Bible studies

throughout the school year

for post-confirmation

students.

See you there!

Bible study to keep youth pumped after NYG

FOUR JARS

Submitted by Adeline Grieser

A minister decided to use a visual demonstration as added emphasis to his Sunday

sermon. Four worms were placed into four separate jars. First worm in a jar

containing alcohol. Second worm in a jar containing smoke. Third worm in a jar

containing chocolate. Fourth worm in a jar with good clean soil. After the sermon,

the minister reported to the congregation that the worm in alcohol was dead. The

worm in the smoke was dead. The worm in the chocolate was dead. The worm in

the good soil? Alive. Pastor then asked the membership, "What did you learn from

this demonstration?" Maxine stood up and said, "As long as you drink, smoke and

eat chocolate, you won't have worms."

A true Christian education means that all goals, rules and policies, staffing, student and adult relationships, structures of authority, methodologies, sources of funding and resources, activities, materials, and content of all subject areas must be consistent with a biblical worldview. In every aspect, the entire education system must openly glorify and please God through our Lord Jesus Christ. A thoroughly Christian education is expressed in an open, non-apologetic in writing, verbally and in all actions on the part of every participant.

More news blurbs from the OSLC office Time flies when you are having fun

That old saying sure is true when we enjoy the summer weather and it seems that fall always comes

too fast. As this is published in early August, it‟s about what‟s coming in September! We are already

thinking ahead to the first fish fry of the season, fall rally, confirmation classes, adult confirmation

instruction and the first day of Sunday school and the first Packers home game of the season. Don‟t let

September hit you by surprise. A little planning will go a long way to a relaxed beginning of the new season.

Upcoming events not mentioned below have individual articles in this month‟s issue.

You can find the full Fish Fry schedule for this year on the Welcome Center counter; the first one

will be on September 10. If you are interested in working during the fish fry this year, please contact Greg

Ammerman at 469-4282. Donations of Pepsi and Coke (regular, diet and caffeine-free) products are needed.

Coffee (regular and decaf) donations are also being accepted.

Board chairs and Board members: Is the Fall Rally, September 12, on your calendar now? Start

working on your board‟s display board for your presentation table and discuss with your members what to

include, who will run the table, etc. This is your chance to shine and let everyone know what your board

does and to possibly recruit members. So put your best foot forward and be prepared.

The Packer season begins at Lambeau Field on August 7, with Family Night followed by two

home preseason games on Saturday, Aug. 14 and Thursday, Aug. 26. Runners are needed for all Packer/

Lambeau Field events including these three nights and the eight home regular-season games beginning on

September 19 with the noon game versus the Buffalo Bills. If you are interested in working, a general

sign-up sheet is on the coffee bar. All workers must complete an online alcohol test; instructions for that are

also on the coffee bar. Workers must be at least 18 years old, show a picture ID to enter the stadium, and

wear black pants. A uniform shirt and hat are provided by Levy Restaurants. Our Saviour receives $50 for

each volunteer to work a game. That‟s $1,000 per game or $11,000 per season! Help us make this a

successful fund-raiser again this year! Go PACK!

Adult instruction in the Christian faith will begin on Sunday, Sep. 19 with a Talk „n Tour. Classes

will be held at 9:15 a.m. and 10:30 a.m. on selected Sunday mornings until November 21. There will be a

total of eight classes. All members and non-members are welcome to attend. Non-members can become

members by Adult Confirmation on December 19 if they desire. Church membership

after the class is not required. If you are interested in attending, please RSVP to the

church office at 468-4065.

Church directory news

Olan Mills photographers took pictures of many Our Saviour

families between May 11 and July 29. OSLC is now working with them to

prepare, edit and produce the 2010 pictorial directory. Rest assured,

members that had photos taken will not miss getting a copy of the

directory. Notices will be placed in the weekly bulletin, The Voice and

possibly on our website or by e-mail to notify everyone when the directory

is ready. If you have not yet provided a picture of your family, church group

or church event, please contact Michelle in the office as soon as possible

about getting them in the directory. Deadline is August 15.

Our Saviour Lutheran Church has sponsored a team in the Christian

Softball League organized by the Green Bay Parks and Recreation

Department for many years. This year, we sponsored TWO teams with

28 total players. We thank the following folks for putting their bodies

on the line for our enjoyment on Sunday evenings this summer.

Without the help of many

others, we would not

know how we did, so

please thank everyone

involved for assisting

with the hard behind-the-

scenes work this year.

Playoffs are in full swing.

Watch the Sunday

bulletin for information

on when and where the

games are will be played.

ADDRESS SERVICE REQUESTED

Total Unified

Receipts for June ran short

of our budget again by an

additional $7,060, bringing

our year to date shortage to

$31,940. Concern over this

summer slump and that the

trend could continue during

the rest of the year, the

church council brought back

the adopt-a-bill board in late

June.

After the first three

weeks of the active adopt-a-

bill board, the church have

received $1,641.79 from

members who have taken a

bill off the board and issued

a check to OSLC to pay that

bill. The response is greatly

appreciated and will help

the church reduce the deficit

in the unified receipts (brass

plate giving).

All church members

are highly encouraged to

stop by the board in the

main entrance. Please

consider taking care of a bill

by removing it from the

board, issuing a check

payable to OSLC and

placing both the check and

the bill in an envelope and

dropping it in the offering

plate or mailing it to the

church office.

Enjoy the rest of the

summer, and please

consider mailing your

offerings to the church if

away for the weekend so

that the church may

continue supporting the

Lord‟s work at OSLC.

Like a sunbather

sagging low in a summer

hammock, that is often how

giving goes during the

summer months. To keep

the mission alive and

healthy, in response to what

He has done, our family joy

is to keep giving from the

heart every season

throughout the year. Let‟s

take the sag out of the

season and keep the

Saviour's work alive.
