Mission Moment
Mission Moment
It is alarming to learn that one in four people sitting in our pews has a family member struggling with mental health, and that a majority of those go first to a spiritual leader for help. Pathways to promise provides that resource by lifting up the vital role of faith in the treatment and recovery of mental illness. American Baptist Home Mission Societies supports this interfaith cooperative that facilitates the faith community’s work in reaching out to those with mental health challenges, disabilities, addictions, and their families. They focus on the important role of faith and spirituality in treating mental illness and helping family members to find strength and hope in caring for a loved one with a mental illness. One of their programs is Mental Health Ministries, a web-based interfaith outreach that offers downloadable print and media resources adaptable to the unique needs of each congregation. These help churches learn how to create an atmosphere of faith for people with mental illnesses, allowing them to actively share their gifts and interests in their communities. The Mission Moment on May 7 will feature a video interview with Curtis-Ramsey Lucas, ABHMS staff member, board member of Pathways to Promise, and editor of the Christian Citizen magazine. He encourages pastors to speak out about mental illness with directness and compassion and addresses the disconnect between mental health need and appropriate care. Your donations to this vital program will help sustain the Pathways to Promise ministry and support its ability to provide resources that help erase mental illness stigma in our faith communities.

Discipleship Class
Join us on Tuesday, May 9th for our next Discipleship class. We will meet in the Fellowship Hall for dinner at 6:30pm, and the class will begin at 7pm. Will Lobb, our Creative Arts Director, will give a presentation on church music: Why do we sing in church? What types of music have been used in worship throughout the centuries? How has sacred music influenced Western classical and American folk music, and vice versa? What does the Christian music industry look like today, and how did we get here? All are welcome to attend. After this meeting, the Discipleship class will pause for the summer and resume in September.

Sunday School Art Show
Sunday School Art Show
On Sunday, June 4 after the worship service, join June and Mazie Olsen, along with their teacher Joan Trusty, in the Parlor as they share the variety of arts and crafts they have created over this past year as part of their Sunday classes. June and Mazie have used everything from clay to watercolor to illustrate what they have been learning. Most of the year was spent learning the major stories of the Old Testament, with a special emphasis on the lives of Moses and David. In addition, each of the events of Holy Week and the story of Pentecost also were part of the curriculum for this year. Join us for some great art and for typical Sunday School snacks!
