Madeline Island Blood Drive

By Becky Hogan

Wednesday, July 22, 11 am - 5 pm

La Pointe School

Donating blood is essential to community health and the

need for blood is constant. The Red Cross urgently

needs blood drives to run as planned. Healthy

individuals are encouraged to book an appointment. At

each blood drive, the Red Cross follows the highest

standards of safety

and infection control,

plus additional

precautions are being

implemented as well.

Volunteer donors are

the only source of

blood for those in need.

There is no known end date in this fight against

coronavirus and the Red Cross needs the help of blood

donors to maintain a sufficient blood supply for weeks to

come. In times of crisis, the Red Cross is fortunate to

witness the best of humanity as people roll up a sleeve to

help those in need.

Call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767) or

visit redcrossblood.org to schedule an appointment.

We greatly

appreciate the

generosity of the

public to keep

hospital shelves

stocked during

these uncertain

times.

If you are available

to volunteer to help

out with the blood

drive, please call

Becky Hogan at

218-310-6092.

Reflections from Rachel and Debbie

Dear friends,

As people of faith, we are

hearing and responding to the

call for racial justice in our

country and in our world. St.

John’s has a long history of

standing in solidarity with the

native peoples of this place

which we all love, and of

participating in activities for

social justice. We have

recently witnessed this to be

particularly true in the

extensive activities at St.

John’s to support the resolution of the Wisconsin

Conference of the United Church of Christ to repudiate

the Doctrine of Discovery.

We are fortunate to

be part of a larger

community that

shares our

commitment to racial

justice. Within the

UCC Wisconsin

Conference, that

commitment begins

at the very top, with Conference Minister Franz Rigert

and his colleagues. I invite you to read the letter Franz

shared with the 200+ UCC congregations in Wisconsin

earlier this week. We add our names, as your Pastor and

Council President, to our colleagues in their commitment

to the work of anti-racism and building the Beloved

Community.

We are also fortunate to see the fruits of our work in the

past year. The Alliance for Justice, Inc., was formed

under the leadership of

Larry Littlegeorge (Ho-

Chunk Congregation)

over the past 12 months

as an outgrowth of the

work of the Wisconsin

Conference of the UCC

to repudiate the

Doctrine of Discovery.

Larry Littlegeorge

The mission statement of the Alliance for Justice reads,

in part, “The Alliance will support the efforts of UCC

congregations, especially in Wisconsin, in advocating for

improved conditions for people impacted by injustices

stemming from the Doctrine of Discovery. The Alliance

for Justice will use education and faith to create

community and heal the wounds inflicted by the Doctrine

of Discovery.” Regina Laroche and Joe Scarry were both

involved in getting the Alliance

for Justice up and running and

Joe is serving on the Alliance

Board of Directors. We invite

you to read the most recent

statement from the Alliance,

reproduced on the next page.

Let us prayerfully consider how

we are called, individually and as a congregation, to

commit to join in anti-racism work. We look forward to

being in conversation with you as we continue to move

forward together.

Peace, Rachel and Debbie

Rev Rachel Bauman, Pastor St. John’s

Debbie Knopf, Council President

United Against Racism

St. John’s is joining with Bayfield communities of faith in

co-sponsoring this silent march on Saturday, July 4 at

11:00 am. We are committed to doing this in a safe and

socially-distanced manner and so there are four different

starting locations (see flyer for details). Rev. Rachel will

be leading a prayer at the Coast Guard Park. Please

wear a mask!

Alliance for Justice Promotes Racial Justice

The Alliance for Justice, Inc., is grateful to the leadership

of the Wisconsin Conference of the UCC in calling on all

congregations to work for racial justice.

Wisconsin is home to one of the largest populations of

native people in the United States.

Image above reproduced from interactive map at

https://wisconsinfirstnations.org/map/

“Explore whose treaty lands and which nations are

located closest to your school using this map.

Try turning on the county and city layer to help you

find the correct location.”

As Wisconsin congregations respond to the call of

conference leadership to work for racial justice, we ask

that you include in your work attention to the justice on

behalf of the native people of this place.

We recommend three ways to do this:

● Learn the true history – Refer to

https://wisconsinfirstnations.org and your local library

to begin a project of learning that includes your

entire congregation. In 2019, Wisconsin

congregations voted to repudiate the Doctrine of

Discovery. In 2020, congregations should move from

the general to the specific, understanding how the

Doctrine of Discovery affected people in the places

you now occupy.

● Advocate for civil rights – There are ways your

congregation can support civil rights for native

people, starting today. Familiarize yourself with

some possible areas for advocacy on the Services

and Programs page of the Indian Law Office page of

Wisconsin Judicare:

http://www.judicare.org/Content/ILO-Services-and-

Programs.cfm Dive deeper into the legal background

in Wisconsin on the Wisconsin Bar page on Indian

Law:

https://www.wisbar.org/NewsPublications/Wisconsin

Lawyer/Pages/Article.aspx?Volume=88&Issue=5&Ar

ticleID=24068

● Protect the environment – Support the leadership

of native people in efforts to save this place

according to the traditions and worldview of

Wisconsin’s native people. Groups include:

o Inter-tribal Water Walkers of Wisconsin

https://www.facebook.com/Intertribalwaterwalkers

o Stop Line 3: https://www.stopline3.org/

o Frac Sand Mining:

https://www.fractracker.org/2018/10/living-with-

silica-sand-mines/

o Great Lakes Indian Fish and Wildlife Commission

https://www.glifwc.org/

In the weeks ahead, the Alliance for Justice, Inc., will

reach out to all UCC Wisconsin Conference

congregations to learn more about how you are

undertaking this work, and to determine how we can best

assist you.

Letter to the congregations

and clergy of the

Wisconsin Conference:

"Do not rock the boat."

"Color inside the lines."

"This country has not been good to us."

Pay attention to the "apparitions, phantoms and ghosts"

that lie behind the founding values and principles of this

nation.

These words of challenge along with a call to confession

were shared in this statement from the Alliance for

Justice of the Hocak UCC. They describe the

Page 4: St. John’s United Church of Christ · 2 days ago · community at St. John’s, both formal and informal, for some people the commitment of membership is a powerful path of the

experiences and the reality of the HoChunk people and

all people of color in our nation. The voices of our

HoChunk siblings join the voices raised all over our

country as the Black Lives Matter

movement gains momentum

following the brutal murder of

George Floyd.

As members of the Wisconsin

Conference pastoral staff, we hear

the voices calling for racial justice and

the dismantling of the racist systems and structures that

keep all of us from living in the Beloved Community

envisioned by Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. We stand

in solidarity with the Alliance for Justice, the HoChunk

Nation and all people of color. We acknowledge our

complicity in the systems and structures that have

perpetuated injustice in this nation for so long.

In particular, we listened to the Alliance for Justice call for

confession. We confess...

• This country is built on racism.

• Racism is alive and well in this country and not

letting up.

• Demands for justice for people of color will be likely

met with more laws and policies against them.

We ask God's forgiveness and grace as we commit to

these actions in response to this confession:

1. To do anti-racism work as a staff

2. To embrace anti-racist practices within our work to

the best of our ability

3. To educate ourselves about the impacts and

effects of racism and white privilege on us, our

work and within the structures, programs and

policies of our conference

Most of all, we commit to listening to our siblings of color.

We decided to share our commitments publicly with you

as pastors, leaders, and friends of the conference

because we hear God speaking through the movements

for racial justice. Can you listen with us? Can you make

a commitment to join in anti-racism work?

We acknowledge that we are

not experts. We admit that we

all have work to do and we

pledge that as a staff we are

committed to walking with

people who are in the

movement for justice and peace

both within and beyond the

church. We will stand with every person in the Wisconsin

Conference who is walking on the path toward justice and

peace and we will raise our voices and not be silent.

Just as Jesus overturned the tables in the temple, we

heard the call to overturn the tables of white privilege and

racism. We need to upturn systems and structures that

divide us from one another and cause harm to our

beloveds.

We are calling congregations and pastors to join us in

doing this much needed hard work. We as a staff are

here to support you, challenge you and encourage you in

this work. We are all implicated in the pain and suffering

of our world. We are called together to see this, to

respond to it and to heal it.

In addition to the commitment we have made to each

other, as staff, to understand our own implicit racial

biases, we are convening a conversation with the racial

justice task force as an umbrella group for various

working groups (e.g.

the immigration

working group) and

will be paying

attention to the

recommendations

that emerge from

this group.

We understand the work before us will be long and

painstaking. Together we will work to create the space

where mutual understanding and healing can begin and

the hope for the Beloved Community can be ushered in.

In his recent sermon "When Is Someday?" the Rev. Otis

Moss III focused on the words from the spiritual, "We

shall overcome someday." He asked, "When is

someday?" More than once in the march for racial justice

people of faith have responded, "Someday must be

now!" We join our voices with so many others who feel

the urgency of the moment, proclaiming again: Someday

must be now!

St. John’s to Discuss “Stamped From the Beginning: The Definitive History of Racist Ideas in America”

As we protest and mourn the murder of George Floyd

and so many other fellow Americans, the opportunity

to learn (and unlearn) calls.

Structural racism, unconscious bias,

police reform, anti-racism and more

are all deeply important issues.

You are invited to join Sarah Ross

Caruso and Rev Rachel Bauman for

the inaugural meeting of the St. John’s Book Club

from 5 - 6pm on Wednesday, July 1.

We will be discussing Stamped From the Beginning:

The Definitive History of Racist Ideas in America in

which award-winning historian Ibram X. Kendi

chronicles the entire story of anti-Black racist ideas

and their staggering power over the course of

American history. Zoom link:

https://us02web.zoom.us/j/83486283738

Worship theme for June and July:

Unraveled: Seeking God When Our Plans Fall Apart *

“What happens when our world falls apart? How do we

press on when our tightly-knit plans unravel into loose

threads? What do we become when our identity – or the

path we’re on – comes undone? What if all of this is not

the end we fear it will be?”

In our unraveling, sometimes life surprises us with

unexpected joy, love, and hope – with a new beginning

we couldn’t have imagined. Sometimes we need God to

unravel us, for we long to be changed. Join us for online

worship in June and July as we explore stories of where

and how God meets us in the spiraling; unraveling our

plans – and us – into something new.
