“Let us also go that we may die with Him” (John 11:16)

“Unless I see in His hands the print of the nails and put my hand into His side, I will not be-lieve” (John 20:25)

Above we see two quotes from the disciple Thomas. He is probably most famous for his “Doubting Thomas”

quote in John 20:25. And at first glance they both may seem very pessimistic and negative. But as I was studying

for an upcoming Bible study I saw a different side of Thomas.

Jesus had left Jerusalem because His life was in jeopardy there and “He went away again beyond the Jordan to

the place where John was baptizing at first, and there He stayed” (John 10:40). People came out to hear Jesus

preach. “And many believed in Him there” (v.42). This was one of the best times in ministry the disciples had wit-

nessed since they started to follow Jesus. People were responsive, being saved, and Jesus was able to minister

freely without opposition.

But something happened to interrupt their time there. ‘Now a certain man was sick, Lazarus of Bethany, the town

of Mary and her sister Martha.” (John 11:1-2). As you may know Jesus was very good friends with Lazarus.

Mary and Martha sent word to Jesus saying, “Lord, behold, he whom You love is sick” (v.3). They knew if Jesus

came He would be able to heal Lazarus. If Jesus went that close to Jerusalem, He was walking into hostility. John

10:39 says the Jewish leaders were seeking to seize Him. He had eluded their grasp once already, but if He re-

turned to Bethany, they were certain to find out, and would try again.

Because of Jesus’ great love for His friend, He decided to go see them. The disciples thought this was crazy. They

said rabbi, lately the Jews sought to stone You, and are You going there again?” (John 11:8). They obviously did

not want to go back and die. But Jesus reassured them they had nothing to fear.

Jesus tells them plainly in verses 13-15 that Lazarus is dead and that He is going back regardless. It is at this point

that Thomas speaks up. “Let us also go that we may die with Him” (John 11:16)

This could either be viewed as sarcastic and pessimistic or it could be viewed as heroic and courageous. Here sits

Thomas knowing that people in Jerusalem are ready to kill Jesus and the other disciples. Yet he is willing to fol-

low Jesus and trust Him with his life. This seems to me to be the action of courageous follower of Jesus.

This leaves me with a few questions: Are we willing to do the same? Are we willing to be the light in this dark

dangerous world? Are we willing to set the example for those around us? To be the first ones to stand up and say

“Lets roll”?

We seem to be living in a “seeing is believing” world. A world where if it looks good, feels good, sounds good,

then it must be good. A world where decisions are made purely based on fear of consequences, not morality, in-

tegrity or faith.

Jesus was willing to risk His life for a friend to show the disciples that being a follower wasn’t just doing what is

right or what is good. It was about trusting that God had their best interest in mind. That His going back to raise

Lazarus form the dead would strengthen the faith of others and encourage others to take leaps of faith. He

wanted them to live in a “believing is seeing” world.

When we believe in Jesus and what He did for us, we see the Holy Spirit at work in our lives and

the lives of others around us. We see that God has a plan for us. We see the truth and the power

in His Word.

Let us also go that we may live our lives for that all may see Him.

Monthly Service Project:

This month our Jr. High and High school youth served at Ha-

ven of Rest. Peeling potatoes, making Easter decorations, you

name it our youth helped . Each month youth participate in a

monthly service project. This allows our youth to interact and

learn what it means to serve and to Love in our own commu-

nity.

International Mission Trip Meeting

Our next meeting will be March 17, 2013 at 12:15ish.

We are getting to know each other. We have set values that will help

guide our trip. Our goals are:

Connect to Christ

Connect to Each other

Then serve

We cannot wait to see how God will use us in this poor country.

Girl’s Night:Girl’s Night:Girl’s Night:Girl’s Night:

Our Girls are studying “how to conquer insecurity”. They meet each

week at Starbucks and while at the coffee shop, it is amazing to see the opportuni-

ties God is providing for them to interact and share the Good News with the other

people who walk in to “just” get coffee.

SAVE THE DATE

April 20, 2013 will

be our Spaghetti dinner.

Homemade meatballs and

sauce will be served over spa-

ghetti this year. This dinner

will help to raise funds for our

mission trip to Guatamala.

a table or just for your family.

Reservation will begin to be

taken in March.

Generous donations via

gift cards; and tuition

monies have helped a

church & school family

tremendously while

mom deals with breast

cancer. The students’

tuition is paid for this

year and part of next

year!

Worth Quoting

From a mom, via email, after reading my letter to the school

families regarding the call in Michigan: “Hayden (her husband)

and I always say that being a Christian helps you to not make a

decision in haste because we have to wait for His direction. I

have such admiration for those who can hand Him the wheel. I

have your letter right here to remind us everyday to keep you

close in prayer.” I think this says a lot about the

families we serve through our school ministry.

Week 3

Lamb-A soft warm lamb reminds us of the gentleness and patience of Jesus. (find a picture of a lamb or a stuffed animal)

Prayer 3:

Dear God, thank you for the people in our lives that care for us. With their patience and gentleness we will grow up to be

safe and happy. Help us to always be kind and gentle with others. Amen. (tell who was kind to you today, or who you

were kind to)

Week 4

Cross-The cross reminds us of the sacrifice Jesus made for us. What a great gift of love! (cut out a cross shape on paper)

Prayer 4:

Dear God, thank you for being with us in our hearts when we are alone or scared. Today we pray that you are in the hearts

of those who are sick and afraid. Amen. (write a prayer request on the cross, pray that prayer throughout lent)

Week 5

Seeds-Beautiful, living grass is a sign of new growth, new life and new beginnings. A sure sign of spring! (pick up some

seeds at a local store) Prayer 5:

Dear God, thank you for all of the beautiful flowers, trees and grass you have put on this Earth. Help us to remember to

take good care of the plants, animals, and water of our Earth. Amen. (plant the grass seeds in the soil, and watch it grow!)

Week 6

Fabric-As Jesus rode to Jerusalem on Palm Sunday people proclaimed Him their long awaited Messiah or King. They

honored him by throwing their coats and branches along the road for Him to walk on. (gather different fabrics around your

house) Prayer 6:

Dear God, thank you for sending Jesus to show us how to be truly happy. We ask that you help us to do what is right and

good each day as we learn and play. Amen. (talk about the feel and texture of each fabric, does it remind you or your chil-

dren of anything?)

Week 7

Butterfly-The butterfly has long been an Easter symbol of new life. Just as the butterfly emerges from a dark cocoon, we

renew our hearts and become filled with the newness of life. Jesus fills our hearts with joy! (cut out a butterfly from

wrapping paper, construction paper, cereal box, etc.) Prayer for Easter Week:

Dear God, we thank you for being with us as we celebrate the risen Jesus. Our hearts are full of joy and hope. Be with us

today and always. Amen. (write “He is risen!” on the butterfly and place somewhere as a reminder each day)

2 Corinthians 8:11

We are in need of additional volunteers to serve an ongoing ministry that changes the messages our church provides for the community on the signboards at Market Street and Smith Road. If we can increase the number of church members on this squad to six, each person would need to serve only once every few weeks and we would have the flexibility to accommodate schedule conflicts and vacations. Sign changes are typically performed weekly on Monday afternoons by two people working together and do require lifting the boxes of letters weighing about twenty pounds on and off of the transport cart. It usually takes 60-90 minutes to complete both signs. If you would be willing to help, please contact either Richard Kotick (330-666-5617, [email protected]) or Lloyd Goettler (330-666-5180, [email protected] ) After March 24th.

StewardshipStewardship

Our mission is to KNOW, FOLLOW and BE like Christ. How do we do that? What does that look like, especially in regards to Stewardship? Stewardship is not all about money; it is also about God’s grace is various forms.

Let’s look at 1 Peter 4:8-11: 8 Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins. 9 Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling. 10 Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms. 11 If anyone speaks, they should do so as one who speaks the very words of God. If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen. There is a key passage here: 10 Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.

We know that the greater the involvement a person has, the deeper the blessing that is received; Genesis 12… “blessed to be a blessing.” Look at our mission statement again, “FLC&S exist to lead people to know, follow and be like Christ”. You and I know that for the whole church, but what about using that as a way of personal expression, as your personal mission statement. Making a difference for Christ in the world will no doubt change your personal world too.

Know-engage in regular reading of scripture, prayer, worship and learning.

Follow-invite others to worship; become involved in regular service to the church; consider going on or supporting mission trips; invest in being a small group leader or being part of a small group; increase giving by just 1% on your annual income.

Be Like-share God’s love story with the world; influence people by giving not only of your time, not only of your treasure, not only of your talent, but by any and all means and gifts God has granted you to use to build His kingdom, all it takes is our humble cooperation.

*Each Stewardship Team Member has been asked to submit or craft an article for the monthly connections; the month of March was my turn. Thanks for reading, Karla McDivitt, Director of School Ministries [staff liaison for Stewardship]

Human CareHuman Care

.MISSION OF THE MONTH FOR MARCH – HAVEN OF REST: IN MARCH our congregation and friends are collecting non-perishable

food for Haven of Rest, which serves over 200,000 meals on site, per year, for hungry men, women, and children. Place your food donations in the collection box inside the church front door. Thank you!

CHALLENGE GIFT: Again this year our congregation used the opportunity to have our gift have twice the impact. Area businesses have joined together and given Haven of Rest a matching gift of $45,860, with the challenge to have other friends of the ministry to turn that combined gift into $91,720. Our congregation sent a budgeted $2,000 to help meet the challenge, so our gift will go twice as far to provide food, shelter and other services to homeless and poor men, women, and children. Please read the thank you note from Haven of Rest that is posted on the Mission Tower.

Update on our January winter clothing collection for Haven of Rest: Donated and taken to Haven of Rest: 20 coats, 8 sweaters, 4 hats, 4 scarves, 8 pr. of gloves and mittens, 14 shirts, and 2 baby quilts. After the Jan. 31 deadline, another box full appeared! We took an additional 16 coats and other misc. clothing to Haven of Rest immediately so we could keep as many people warm as possible! Thank you for caring for your neighbors!

SERVING FREE HOT LUNCH AT OPEN M: Tues., March 19, 10:30am-2pm.: Need 10-12 men and women to volunteer to help. We can always use new preparer/servers, and setup and cleanup people. No experience necessary – just a heart for helping your

less-fortunate neighbors! We also need approx. 25 doz. cookies. Homemade cookies are great, purchased are good, too! If you would like to be a preparer/server and/or donate cookies, please sign up on the Mission Tower. If you can’t come to this lunch, other opportunities to serve lunch at OPEN M in 2013 are: (Tuesdays) May 21, Aug. 20, and Oct. 15. For further information or a ride to OPEN M, contact Jacquie Kyle, 330-666-5725, [email protected]. Thank you!

WHAT IS A VOLUNTEER? Check the Mission Tower to read a definition of a volunteer. Also, please read the quotes regarding volunteers, and especially read the special page of “thank yous” personally handwritten by the staff members at OPEN M, with a block of “Thank yous” in the center, in different languages. Jill Chipps, our volunteer who attends the OPEN M Membership meetings, was given the letter and we’re sharing it with you all. Thank you OPEN M staff, and thank you, Jill.

SALVATION ARMY: We recently received a letter of thanks for our “Red Kettle bell ringing” in Nov. and Dec headed up by Linda Evans. Our FLC group helped to raise $459.98. To quote a little of Michael Simpkins’ letter, “The work we do here at the Salvation Army is about goodness, about kindness, about giving hope to those who have very little. …With your help as volunteer bell ringers – you make it all possible.”

Thank you to our “Bell Ringers” - Jill, Herb, Karla & Grant, Dean & Alice, Blaise, Susie R, Vi, Terry, Mary Y, Mario & Sophia, and Olivia & Melissa!

The Human Care Team can use a few more volunteers for help with various 2013 missions. For more information, contact Jacquie Kyle, 330-666-5725, [email protected].
