“Caring, Growing, Serving”
From The Pastor… eing a lifelong liturgical Christian, I am a creature of habit. What I mean by that is the flow of the liturgical Church calendar is built into my makeup: season upon season, Advent followed by Christmas, then Epiphany with its apex in Transfiguration Sunday, then Lent leading into Holy Week, then Resurrection/Easter, then the long season of Pentecost,
leading finally to the ultimate culmination of history in Christ the King Sunday just in time for the church year calendar to be turned and the whole process to begin again.

Of course, you’re wondering what this all has to do with anything. Well, I’ll tell you: it’s a bit

As March approaches I am keenly aware that Lent will begin on the first Wednesday of the month. We’ll give it a nod with a brief order for the Imposition of Ashes at our regular Wednesday evening small group study, but the texts from the Old Testament that we will be following along with during those 6 weeks of Lent don’t really lend themselves to the season’s reflections.

The Pantry Story
What is the STORY that we practice here at The Lord’s Pantry? As we are continuing to learn about the upper and lower stories on Sundays, we at the Pantry see all types of stories. The Volunteers here at the Pantry see the STORIES of the many clients we serve beginning with food needs, clothing, basic comforts, hygiene products for the homeless, or just a familiar face with a smile. Is this not what God has wanted us to do by taking care of his children?
It is at this time when we see the STORIES of others that we think to ourselves “There but for the Grace of God go I” we have a chance to all help feed His Sheep coming in April. The Church will be celebrating one of the greatest seasons of the church year.
Easter falls on April 20, this year and the Pantry will be having our Easter Giveaway. The dates are as follows Monday April 14, Tuesday April 15 and Thursday April 17. During this time we can use help in the forms of your time during the giveaway, food supplies or monetary funds to help us with the project.
Please continue to pray for the outreach ministry and the people who support the vision.

HEALTH MINISTRY CORNER by Donna Zimmerman, RN, Parish Nurse
Psalm 107:17 † “Some become fools through their rebellious ways and suffer affliction because of heir iniquities.”
Some people may cause their health problems to worsen if they don’t follow doctor’s orders and I suppose that could be called foolish. It is ironic that my 44 year old nephew died of kidney disease last month. I don’t know if he was foolish with it or not since he was a very private person and didn’t even tell his mother if he even knew he had it. None of his family was aware he had any health problems. It was a shock to all of us. The following is from the website: March is National Kidney Month, and March 14, 2014, is World Kidney Day. DaVita is helping raise awareness about chronic kidney disease (CKD), a condition that one in every 10 adults (age 20 or older) in the United States has, as well as people with end stage renal disease (ESRD) who need dialysis or a kidney transplant. Kidney disease develops when kidneys lose their ability to remove waste and maintain fluid and chemical balances in the body. The severity of CKD depends on how well the kidneys filter wastes from the blood. It can progress quickly or take many years to develop. Because there are little to no signs of the condition, most people are not even aware that they have kidney disease until it reaches the
later stages, including kidney failure. Because there are often no symptoms of kidney disease, laboratory tests are critical. When you get a screening, a trained technician will draw blood that will be tested for creatinine, a waste product. If kidney function is abnormal, creatinine levels will increase in the blood, due to decreased excretion of creatinine in the urine. Your glomerular filtration rate (GFR) will then be calculated, which factors in age, gender, creatinine and ethnic-city. The GFR indicates the person’s stage of chronic kidney disease which provides an evaluation of kidney function. In many cases, kidney failure can be prevented or delayed through early detection and proper treatment of under-lying diseases, such as diabetes and high blood pressure to slow additional damage to the kidneys. Also helpful are an eating plan with the right amounts of sodium, fluid and protein. Additionally, one should exercise and avoid dehydration. Treating diabetes and high blood pressure will slow additional damage to kidneys. End stage renal disease patients have two treatment options:
Dialysis is a treatment that removes wastes and excess fluid from blood when the
kidneys are not able to do it on their own.
Typically, it is necessary upon development of kidney failure — usually by the time an individual loses about 85-90 percent of kidney function. There are over 380,000 people (including children) in the United States who depend on hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis (PD) treatments to stay alive.
The only other treatment option for people with end stage renal disease is a kidney transplant.
This year the month of March offers these health topic observances:
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Awareness Month
Hemophilia Awareness Month Juvenile Arthritis Month Multiple Sclerosis Education &
Awareness Month National Brain Injury Awareness
Month National Colorectal Cancer
Awareness Month National Kidney Month National Endometriosis
Awareness Month National Nutrition Month Save Your Vision Month
Health Sunday is March 2 in
Luther Hall, after the service. Come in for blood pressure screening. Catch problems early in order to get treatment before
they become a major problem.
