REIMAGINING
Since last year’s Council Retreat I have been talking about “reimagining” our teams
(committees) and ministries. I sometimes get questioning looks, as if to ask, “Did you
make that word up, Pastor?”While I will admit there are times I fiddle with words to fit
the occasion or idea, I did not make up the work, “reimagining.”
Reimagine verb; reinterpret (an event, work of art, etc.) imaginatively; rethink.(Oxford Dic-
tionary) imagine again or anew; : to form a new conception of : re-create (Mirriam -Webster
Dictionary)
This month we will celebrate the greatest case of “reimagining” of all times – the resurrection of Jesus.
Resurrection is an utterly fantastic idea. Not resuscitation — brought back to life to die at a later time — but
resurrection. Jesus died, was buried and on the third day rose from the dead, fully Jesus but no longer subject
to death or constrained by earth’s physical laws.
As we have been reading the Gospel of Mark this year in worship, there have been quite a few times when
the disciples seem particularly dense. Even when Jesus directly tells them he will be turned over to the authori-
ties; killed and in three days rise again, they either deny, sidestep or ignore such an “unimagined” scenario for
the Messiah. Who can really blame them? Arrested, tortured and shamefully executed was not what happened
to a Messiah, nor what you would ever want for a beloved friends and teacher. And the “in three days rise
again”? That was even more “unimaginable.” How was that possible? How would a resurrected person look or
act? Like Lazarus or a frightening ghost? The gospel writer Mark wants us to see the disciples struggle with
understanding Jesus. In watching those faithful followers of Jesus, it helps us, who live on the other side of the
resurrection, to see a reflection of our own doubts, wonders and refusals to accept those things that Jesus
taught which we do not like to hear.
Jesus’ resurrection caused the disciples to have to “reimagine” all they thought they knew about life and
death. They had to “reimagine” the meaning of Jesus’ words, parables and teachings in light of the resurrec-
tion. They had to “reimagine” what it meant to follow a Lord who cleared the way for his disciples to be for-
ever connected to the power, love and eternal life of God. As we read, study and reflect on Scripture we wres-
tle, too, with assumptions and long-held understandings that are challenged. Faithfulness includes being open
to the transforming Holy Spirit leading us at times to “reimagine” what it means to follow Jesus in particular
situations and new circumstances.
We are part of a long history of “reimaginers” who led the church to re-examine how its policies and tradi-
tions did or did not reflect Jesus’ words or ways. I’m not just thinking of famous people like Martin Luther
who had a history-changing impact. I’m also thinking of everyday faithful people who challenged their Coun-
cils or congregation to do “the right thing” when it seemed to going the way of convenience, ungracious power
or hoarding God’s good gifts. Its not always easy for “reimaginers” since we are often a stubborn lot — prefer-
ring status quo to change, even when we may know the Spirit is calling us to be “a new creation.” Easter does
not end, you see. The risen life of Christ is among us, calling us to follow, calling us to be an Easter people of
God’s life and love in our church and world.
At it’s 2015 retreat, Haven’s Council wondered if the current configuration of teams at Haven was still the
best way to be organized. The current set of teams was already in place when most of those present joined Ha-
ven — which means it was created several decades ago. The teams have functioned well in those years. The
questions are: Are they still the best way to do what God wants us to do here at Haven?; How do we help the
teams and congregation to be refreshed in purpose and participation? The Council thought it time to ask the
questions and “reimagine” how our teams can best lead the congregation to do God’s Work.
In February, twenty-three Haven team members participated in an “Almost-All-Teams” meeting. We asked
each team to list those events, programs and tasks for which they were responsible . We asked them to put a
star by those things their team thought were no longer helpful or relevant. We asked individuals to offer up to
three suggestions for how teams might work more effectively and make serving a more joyful experience.
We’ll be posting those lists at the February 28th Congregational Supper and Meeting and ask everyone to take
some time to look at them. What might others see that the teams don’t see themselves? Are there some events
that could be done by ad hoc groups that come together for a limited time until the event is done? The Council
will prayerfully gather around the information provided by the teams and congregation to consider what the
next step might be towards a “reimagining” that would renew, inspire and broaden “Our Hands” as we do
“God’s Work.” The Council will then turn again to the teams and congregation to help in this hopeful, Spirit-
led endeavor.
I pray the remainder of your Lenten journey is rich with God’s presence and grace. I pray we are ever open
to a “reimagining” of ourselves and what we are capable of doing when we follow the will and ways of our
Lord. I ask you to pray for Haven and the efforts of your Council. I ask you to pray that our community is re-
energized by the power of our Risen Lord, ever rising to follow Jesus in his ways, towards the future to which
God is calling us. May all God’s people say, “Amen” and well, you know, that “A” word we fast from in Lent.
Your Pastor and Partner in Ministry.

COUNCIL
HAGERSTOWN CHURCHES REIMAGINING, TOO
On February 23, representatives of various Hagerstown churches from varied denominations gathered for an
information meeting about a program called “New Dollars/New Partner for Your Sacred Place” by the non-
profit company Partners for Sacred Places. The purpose of the training program is to:
•help transform how congregations see themselves and their place in the neighborhood;
•more fully use one’s building to help revitalize the community;
•find and make new community partnerships;
•learn an effective capital campaign strategy;
•how to tap community funding resources for ministry and the maintenance of the church’s building (“sacred
place”)
The training is done in four modules spaced over several months. The instruction is provided by experienced
“Sacred Places” staff and consultants. Participating churches send their senior clergy person and three lay lead-
ers to the training.
The cost of the program is $30,000. That covers the total cost of training four to twelve churches. The ini-
tial discussion that night was to seek as much funding from outside sources as possible (ex. Community Foun-
dation; Thrivant) to defray the total cost. “Sacred Places” also has grants available from the Lily Foundation
for qualifying congregations. The remaining portion of the fee would be divided among the participating
churches, encouraging those churches with greater resources to help those churches with fewer available
funds.
Many of the churches in Hagerstown expressed an interest in “New Dollars/New Partners for Your Sacred
Place” because they are using an increasing, disproportionate amount of their shrinking resources to maintain
large and older facilities. Haven may not be in the same position (though we have our share of property chal-
lenges and upkeep) but Haven has always been interested in connecting and contributing to the community.
That is the piece I think may be of the most interest and value to us. Of course, the information about capital
campaigns and community foundation resources will be helpful, too.
Those churches that attended this initial meeting agreed to meet again on Tuesday, April 5th, 6:30 pm.
Other churches that expressed an interest will also be invited. After discussion with Haven’s Council, I would
like to have several Haven members attend the April 6th meeting with me. This may be an opportunity for us to
join with other Hagerstown churches in “reimagining” how our churches can be more active partners in the
revitalization of community. It may be a way for Haven to further grow our involvement in bettering our
neighborhood and find the funding for that expansion of ministry.
Will you please think and pray about this “Partners for Sacred Places” training program? Is it something
that would benefit God’s mission outpost at Haven Lutheran Church? Do you sense this opportunity to be God
-sent? Please share you thoughts with Council members and me. If you’d be interested in attending the April
6th meeting with me, please let me know. We need more folks to have first-hand knowledge to help us discern
if we are to participate or not.
Thank you for your attention. Thank you for your prayerful consideration. Lord, help us to know your
will. Amen Your pastor and partner in ministry, Linda M Alessandri

PARISH EDUCATION TEAM
WEEKDAY BIBLE STUDY — Wednesdays, 10 - 11 am
The Rest of the Story Continued: Get a glimpse at what comes between the Sunday Scripture readings of
our Narrative Lectionary. Enjoy a safe place to ask questions, explore possibilities and wonder in God’s Word.
Led by Pastor Linda Alessandri
WOMEN'S BIBLE STUDY— The third session of our study of Paul's letter to the church in Phi-
lippi, will be held on Thursday, March 24, starting at 10:00 a.m. in the Parlor. While looking at
Paul's advice concerning issues in the Philippian church at that time, "Being of One Mind" invites us
to look at current issues in our Church & society. Copies of the study are available on the mobile
message board and in the March issue of "Gather" magazine.
EASTER EGG HUNT SUPPLIES NEEDED — Each Easter morning Haven has an Easter Egg Hunt for
children up through the fifth grade. It is a delight to see how much fun they have finding the eggs and filling
their baskets and bags.
We turn again to the congregation to ask for plastic eggs and for candy and stickers to fill the eggs. Other
items children might enjoy that fit in the plastic egg are also welcome. We just ask that the item be safe. Please
avoid non-edible items that might be swallowed by our youngest children.
Look for a box for donations in the narthex. Thank you for your help.
Haven’s Easter Bunny Crew
NO VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL IN 2016 We put out the call last autumn: "We need a new Vacation Bible School (VBS) director or co-directors." For
the last nine years I have taken lead for VBS with another congregation member (Danny Kiblinger, Jan Kap-
lan, and for the last few years, Marge Cunningham.) I need to step back from that level of involvement which
has always taken a great deal of time away from other pastoral responsibilities. I would remain involved but
not as co-director.
To date no one has come forward to step into the VBS director's shoes. Also, our VBS volunteers have
expressed some fatigue in the last two years. The Parish Education Team has decided to let VBS "rest" for
2016. I for one will miss it greatly. However, there are times when even a good program needs a break so
those involved can "catch a breath" and consider the future course.
The Parish Education Team is still considering the possibility of a weekend or one day VBS. The Team will
also offer support to the ad hoc group planning Haven's second BLOCK PARTY --- another great community
outreach event. And the team will continue to ask our Lord how we can "honor God, reach out with love to our
members and community and share the gospel of Jesus Christ."
PARISH LIFE TEAM
BOOK CLUB — In March we will be discussing NO ORDINARY TIME, FRANKLIN &
ELEANOR ROOSEVELT: THE HOME FRONT IN WWII, a historical, biographical book by
American author & presidential historian Doris Kearns Goodwin. It is a fascinating account of the Roosevelts
& America preparing for & participating in WWII. Please join us on Thursday, March 17 at 2 pm in the
church parlor. Looking ahead, April's selection is HER NAME IS ROSE by Christine Breen.—Joan Schupp
LADIES NIGHT OUT— The March Ladies Night Out will be on Thursday, March 24th. Time and
location will be announced. There will be a sign-up sheet on the mobile board.
KNIT WITS — will meet Mar. 3, 10am in Haven West.
PICTORIAL DIRECTORY — Our congregation at Haven Lutheran Church has indicated
an interest in developing a new Pictorial Directory. Our present directory was done by sev-
eral members of the Parish Life Team in 2009. (continue article on the next page)
Life touch has professional experience in providing various schools, churches, and other organizations with
directories. They are interested in working with Haven Lutheran Church in developing a church pictorial di-
rectory. We are hoping to start the process in this spring.
We need people to help coordinate this project. Some features of the process have changed with “on-line”
coordination and digital accessibility.
Members can schedule their appointments for photography on-line.
Photos can be taken in the parlor over a 3 day period (April 21, 22, 23) Each member will receive a di-
rectory; as well as their portrait.
The church office will have access to the directory on-line.
These on-line features have made the process more convenient. As a member; on your scheduled day you
will:
check in
be professionally photographed
immediately view your portraits
have an opportunity to purchase additional portraits
For this directory to happen we will need people to:
1. Schedule appointments: volunteers needed for table in the narthex to help people schedule appoint-
ments following worship service (2 people need).
2. Make calls to families to remind them of photography date & time.
3. Help prepare the photography space on the first day of picture-taking (parlor) (3 people needed).
4. Hosts/Hostesses needed on the 3 photography days (usually 2 hour shifts) to greet, check in people, and
provide directions (6 people per day).
5. Team to design the directory.
6. Coordinator(s) to do the paper work and be in regular contact with Life Touch.
Most of the other jobs have been divided into small commitments of several hours. Can we do this Haven?
Can you help in some way?
If you are willing to help with any part of this process, please sign-up on a Sunday worship attendance sheet or
on the sign-up sheet on the mobile message board in the narthex.

suffering of the final days before his death. Come walk these final miles with our Lord. You will find Easter
even more meaningful.
Sunday, March 20th: Palm & Passion Sunday
9:30 am—Worship, 10:30 am—Social Time, 11:00 am—Sunday School
Thursday, March 24th: Maundy Thursday
12:00 noon—Worship with Holy Communion (quiet; no music)
5:30 - 7:30 pm—"Agape" Meal and Worship
The Agape ("Love") Feast dates to apostolic times when Christians gathered together to "feast" on God's
Word, the togetherness of community, a simple communal meal, and the Holy Eucharist.
This year our evening Maundy Thursday worship will be an Agape Meal and Service (in the parlor) that
will conclude with the stripping of the altar (church sanctuary) in preparation of Good Friday. We'll gather at
tables in the parlor, praying and listening to God's Word together before we share a simple meal of soup,
bread, cheese and fruit. After eating, we continue our worship by sharing the Lord's Supper with bread and
wine at each table. We'll conclude with a procession across the narthex to the darkened church sanctuary to
watch the altar and sanctuary being stripped in preparation for Good Friday as Psalm 22 is read.
Our Worship Team hopes this Maundy Thursday "Agape" Meal and Worship will be a meaningful way to
mark this day of Holy Week.
So we can have enough tables and food prepared, we ask that you sign up to attend on the attendance form
in the Sunday bulletin or by calling the church office no later than March 13. If you have any questions, please
contact Pastor Alessandri.
Let us end this looooonnng winter with a gathering of our community in honor of our Lord's journey to a
death that would lead to life.
