Pastor Katie’s Corner

Summer 2017

I’m reminded this week of the power of lists. To-do lists specifically. I’ve got plenty on my list(s) as I prepare our congregation for a summer of maternity leave and my home for welcoming a new family member. As I list things, I’m reminded of how Scripture contains lists. Instructive lists, like the one God gives Noah about which animals to take into the ark. Technical lists, like those in the later chapters of Exodus about what’s in and around the tabernacle. Paul likes to list people in his New Testament letters as a way to thank them. Lists are a way to order our world, to keep our thoughts and ideas in a line, and to help control a situation. That’s great, but we also need to recognize that there are limits to lists. For the only person who can truly order the world, keep us organized, and who is ultimately in control, is God. This insight caught me off guard just the other day as I was reading a preaching reflection written by one of my divinity school professors. He encouraged preach-ers, whom he knows to be list-makers by profession, to put “Seek the Kingdom of God” on the top of their list for the day, and to write “Look for Christ” somewhere in the middle. This small gesture transformed my outlook that day. No matter what else is on our list, “Seek the Kingdom of God” should be first. I’m going to write one final list for you all - of things I hope you’ll do over the summer to help our church continue to seek God and God’s Kingdom as Pastor Triplett serves with you temporarily.

1. Seek the Kingdom of God (see above) 2. Don’t stop coming to worship. It’s going to be easy to think, that with a coverage pastor and the voice and bell choirs out-of-season, there’s more important/fun/restful things to do than to go to church on Sunday morning. But you ARE the church. The church needs you there to be the church. Keep worship attendance a priority. 3. Care for one another. If you hear that someone experienced the death of a loved one or a loss, send a card. Call them. Check in on those who live alone, especially the weeks after their families leave from visiting. If you don’t see someone in church for a few weeks, call them up and check on them. 4. Volunteer around the church. We’re going to need helping hands for our first summer of joint Vacation Bible School with St. Luke’s. We’re going to need teams to cut the grass and keep the property looking good. We’re going to need folks to unlock and lock the church on Sundays. Volunteer even if you’ve never done it before! 5. Look for Christ. I bet you’ll find that Jesus is still around here. 6. Notice visitors to our church. Welcome them. Ask their names, tell them about LCOS. 7. Pray. For our church. For its leaders. For our county, commonwealth, and country. For all you know who need it.

As much as I’m loving lists these days, I’ll stop there. Remember #1. Your servant, Pastor Katie

VANCO Online Giving Program

As some of you may know, LCOS has recently re-vamped its website, thanks to Pastor Katie and Emily, our Admin Assistant. With this new look, we're pleased to roll-out a new online giving program sponsored through a company called VANCO.

VANCO works with more than 20,000 churches and is one of the largest providers of online giving for faith-based organizations.

Some of us have been giving on an automated basis through the Simply Giving program, which is also spon-sored through VANCO. The difference is that Simply Giving has to be initiated through paperwork, so there is a lag in processing time for set-up as well as for making changes in offerings.

That's not the case with this new online program. You simply go to the LCOS website and click on the Giving button to register. You can set-up your offerings to be deducted from your checking account or credit and debit cards. You choose the frequency - it can be a one time donation, or you can do it on a recurring basis - weekly, semi-monthly or monthly. You can even choose the date you want the deductions to be made. Any changes to your offerings may also be done right online.

So what are the benefits?

For donors:

• It eliminates the need to write out 52 checks with your envelopes;

• It eliminates the upcoming "summer slump months" - so when you're away from church on vacation, there's no need to mail in your envelope or try to play catch-up later;

• And if you give through credit card deductions, just think about all those extra points and miles you'll earn!

For the Church:

• It gives much needed donation consistency when offerings are done on a recurring basis;

• It guarantees uninterrupted support. After all, even when you're not at church to put your offering in the collection basket, the church's expenses continue;

• Lastly, it makes budgeting much more reliable when offerings are done on an automated and recurring basis.

There is also a slide show presentation under the Giving area on the Website that will acquaint you with the sign up process if needed. It's really very straight forward.

In the coming months, we plan to roll-out the ability to use mobile devises for offerings through the VANCO app. There's even the ability to make donations via text messaging!

10% to 13% of our offerings today are done on an automated basis. It would be great if we could double that number by the fall or even exceed that goal. We'll check back with you in the coming months.

Contact Gail Kimpfler with any questions.

OUTREACH

RFOH - We will be transitioning into the 'summer menu' for the months of June, July and August. The Out-reach committee will provide the meat and it would be wonderful if the congregation could help us provide side dishes for our monthly lunches. This change in menu provides the folks at RFOH with some different items at lunch and also helps alleviate the problem of the kitchen heating up due to hot ovens. We always serve the second Wednesday of every month. Please see the signup sheet on the large bulletin board for ideas.

CARITAS - As mentioned in last month’s newsletter, LCOS is partnering with St. Lukes's UMC to provide sup-port for this wonderful ministry. The hosting will take place August 12-18 at St. Luke's on Fordham Road. The past few years LCOS has assisted with laundry supplies, daily lunches, overnight help and anywhere else we could support our friends at St. Luke's. We are still in need of a coordinator as the Goerlich's will not be availa-ble this year. Please see Wayne or Bobbi Goerlich for more information.

PANTRY SUNDAY - Usually the first Sunday of each month is designated Pantry Sunday. If you would like to donate nonperishable items just place them in the wicker baskets located near the coffee pot in the narthex. If the first Sunday of the month is not convenient for you any Sunday would be fine. These items are donated to the food pantry located at Southminster Presbyterian Church on Hull Street and shared with those in need.

This month the Outreach Committee would like to highlight Richmond Friends of the Homeless (RFOH).

RFOH was started by Shawnee Hanson in 1986. Her goal was to 'strengthen and enrich the communi-ty life of the underprivileged and homeless in Richmond Virginia'. RFOH provides services in four main areas : daily lunch, children's services, Camp Camille and health and wellness. A nutritious hot lunch is served at two locations Monday through Friday, and bagged lunches are served on week-ends at a third location. Approximately 375 lunches in total are served per day Monday through Friday and weekend amounts vary. RFOH also provides school supplies to children, warm clothes, summer camp opportunities, and homework help. Health and wellness concerns are met by volunteers and staff from the Cross Over Clinic. These things are funded by donations from the com-munity and a large fundraiser that takes place once a year. This is just a brief overview of the work being accomplished by this wonderful organization. Please visit the website for more in-depth infor-mation. www.richmondfriendsofthehomeless.org

LCOS has been partnered with RFOH for many years. We provide a hot lunch the sec-ond Wednesday of every month where the average attendance is 110. In addition to the monthly lunches served, LCOS has provided gloves and hats, school supplies, Easter bags with candy, tooth-brushes, toothpaste and financial assistance to this wonderful organization.
