Transcript of New YearNew Beginningsimages.acswebnetworks.com/1/2984/JanuaryNewsletter.pdf · the new year brings...
New Year...New Beginnings It is the start of a new year! Isn’t that
exciting? I always enter the new year
with hope and excitement because of
what the new year will bring and how
the new year brings new beginnings.
There is a sense of mystery around the
beginning of the year, because we
don’t know what it holds. Now
sometimes the years don’t turn out as
planned or expected, but I find peace in
God’s plan for the future when that
happens.
At the beginning of 2017, if you had
told me we would be in North Carolina
at the end of 2017, I wouldn’t have
believed you. Yet, here we are living in
North Carolina at Christmas. North
Carolina wasn’t in the plan at the start
of 2017. All the while it was God’s plan
for us to be here. I couldn’t fully see it
until we were here that it was always
part of God’s plan. God is faithful! God
knew it was at this moment I was to
serve at ORUMC.
At times when God was knitting this
plan together over the course of many
years and events, there were times that
were scary and uncertain. There were
many times when it took believing
without seeing and I had to use that
scripture as the reminder that I told
myself again and again. I don’t have
the space here to share all the details,
but over time I will share the full story
of how we got to ORUMC because it is
a great story about God’s faithfulness.
No matter what 2018 holds for our lives
or the church, I know God has a plan
for a future, a plan to prosper us. I
know we will look to God to direct our
ways and to guide our actions. I know
we have nothing to fear or be
discouraged in for 2018, because God is
with us and God is faithful. God will
give us visions on the future ministry of
ORUMC. God will give us visions on
how to reach God’s people so they may
come to know the love of Christ in their
lives. God is good all the time!
I am so thankful to be with you all for
2018. I am so thankful that God’s plan
was for Pastor Andy and me to be at
ORUMC in 2018 and beyond. I am
excited about what is happening in
2018 at ORUMC. God is working in
mighty ways through ORUMC. God is
giving you all visions for new ministries
that are touching people’s lives. These
visions include the strong men’s
ministry, God’s Garage, getting off the
ground. There are several mission
trips planned where we will do God’s
mighty work and we will love God
through service in 2018 locally,
nationally, and internationally. We will
begin Wednesday night meals where
we will come together as ONE
community to fellowship and share in
a meal together. We have laity with
ministry ideas for new ministries at
ORUMC as we walk into our future
bold and courageous glorifying the
Lord. We have new staff positions that
will bring new ministries to ORUMC.
God is good all the time! God has a
plan for our future! Praise be to God
for God’s faithfulness!

Generations Together In Guatemala
My grand adventure began back in the spring with the death of my dear friend, Anne Gundlach. It was at that moment that I made the decision…life can't wait. I signed up for the Guatemala mission trip through Oak Ridge United Methodist Church. I thought it would be a wonderful experience for my daughter as well. A recent graduate of Northwest High School, Megan is a freshman at Western Carolina University. Although she had been on numerous mission trips through the church. this was my first experience. The trip fell during her fall break so we joined the first team including the students from High Point University.
In discussing my upcoming adventure with my dad, he jumped on board as well. He offered to drive from Ohio to pick Megan up and meet us for the trip. Three generations headed to a foreign land to impact the lives of others. Serious family bonding! We arrived in Guatemala October 14th, two days before my Dad’s 81st birthday. I didn’t realize we were about to experience some of the hardest work I've ever done. How exciting to see cinder blocks and cement pieces transformed into an efficient stove that would reduce chronic respiratory issues and reduce deforestation in the mountains of Guatemala.
With the leadership of Max Kern and Dan Chance, the first team’s work was nearly flawless installing 200 stoves in homes. Adobe walls, dirt floors, shaky tin roofs and no bathrooms - these aren't our typical Northwest Guilford homes. The fear of having the ceiling collapse as you work to caulk the chimney was real. Most required a wood board to keep you from falling through. We installed stoves until lunch and our afternoons were filled with interaction with the children. Each family would receive medicine to remove parasites along with items for each family member. We would play games with the kids to keep them busy while waiting their turn: jumping rope, coloring, duck duck goose, soccer and crafts like God’s Eye’s. The pictures are priceless.
A special thanks to the many people from all over the Triad who donated items for the families. (Clothing, shoes, coloring books, toothbrushes and soap - all the simple things we take for granted) The children’s expressions when you gave them a Tootsie Roll or Dum Dum made you feel like they had won the lottery. That is the joy we experienced. For those that donated stoves, the people of Lemoa are extremely grateful. You helped an entire village! My heart was warmed as I read Megan’s Facebook post, “until next year Guatemala”.

Muchas Gracias!

Backpack Ministry Reflections For the volunteers! We have over 25 volunteers serving
our children each week. They are shopping, packing,
picking up backpacks, delivering backpacks, doing
inventory, conducting food drives and much more.
For the special donations! People have been so
generous in donating hats and gloves, school supplies and
goodies to our children – more ways to show God’s
Children they are loved. As a note, one of the backpack
children came to me and told me how much a single
pencil helped.
And especially for God’s Blessings on this ministry – God
continually blesses us with the means to keep this
ministry growing. I will never forget when I first started as
the sponsorship coordinator and it was obvious that we
were running low on funds and may have to put kids on a
wait list. I was told by Jessica, our Backpack Director at
that time, that God always provides. Within a short time
of her telling me that, we received financial donations
that added up to our exact needs.
Thank you again for all that you have done over the
years to help this ministry! Please pray for our
continued growth and support and especially for the
children that need our Love.
Blessings to you in the new year!
Beth Waterfield
NWGABP Ministry Sponsorship Coordinator and Board
Member
As 2018 begins, the Backpack Ministry volunteers would
like to reflect upon what we are thankful for:
All that you have done to sustain this ministry and help
us grow over the past 7 years. Yes this is our 7th year
feeding the children – we went from 2 to 100+. Last year
we served over 120 and this year we are hoping to exceed
that number. The ministry now has a board and even
added Northern Middle School this year. We are taking
extra steps to think out of the box to discover new ways
to reach out to more families and make them aware of
the program. There are over 900 children in our
Northwest Area that qualify, and we want to educate
more families on our program and continue to reduce
childhood hunger.
For all the food donations! The first quarter of this
school year we received over 1900 food items. As you can
imagine the donations significantly reduced our cost for
the first quarter. Although we did not achieve our
financial goal of 120 new sponsorships, currently we are
still able to grow to 120 due to the amount of food that
has been donated. The board is continuing to seek and
depend on more food drives.
For the $25,000 in new sponsorships we received this
year (covers approximately 65 children). Church
members and community members continue to be
generous with feeding our children. The new
sponsorships, plus our reserves and the food donations
allows us to serve up to 120 children. As we grow and
hopefully exceed that number we will work with the
church and community to raise more money as well as
look at different ways to raise funds and cut cost.

Prison Ministry Support Kairos #47
Twice a year, Christ reaches out to residents inside Central
Prison (CP) in Raleigh through our team of Kairos volunteers.
This is very humbling for the volunteers. This 72-hr ministry
is interfaith; the 42 residents with whom we’ll share Christ’s
through our loving and listening, will include Muslims,
Rastafarians, Wikkens, or men who have turned their backs
on God early in life. Further, a person cannot undertake this
ministry alone. Each of us enters CP with the prayers and
resource support of our outside teams. We see God work
miracles, as walls come down through our listening and
loving. Prayer is an irreplaceable act of agape (unconditional
love) from our outside teams. It bears fruit for God
throughout our long days with the men, and often during
restless nights! This is my 30th Kairos.
A challenging element of this ministry is that each team
member must bring 50 dozen perfect cookies. You can help
by baking cookies. The cookies need to be about 2.5”
diameter, round cookies. We have decided the cookies must
all be chocolate chip; no fruit, nuts, sprinkles or frosting of any
kind. Each dozen should be packed in a quart zip lock (or like)
bag. They will be collected in the education building Sunday,
January 29. When you bake for the residents, you are part of
our team. We are also encouraged to bring standard size
placemats; decorated by small children, with a Bible verse or
words of encouragement. The children at ORWS have
produced a sufficient number this year.
Our prayer chain may be the easiest, and also one of the most
important places you can help. Our prayer partners affirm
their intention to pray during the weekend (February 7-10,
2018), by writing their names on prayer sheets we will pass
around. We cut the signed strips then make loops for a
prayer chain that goes all the way around the gym at least
once. Please also pray for the outside team, who will be
cooking amazing meals for 200 men throughout each day.
Finally, each of us will also hand write a letter to each of the
42 residents with whom we will share the weekend, to show
them Christ’s Love.
There are two additional ways you can become involved
during a Kairos weekend:
1. Become involved serving with the outside team in Raleigh
during the 4-day weekend. It’s a great, inclusive group,
and we can usually use extra help for one day, or more.
2. Attend the closing ceremony for the Kairos 47 weekend
at Central Prison. Please let me know ASAP and I can
provide the details of signing up, and fitting into the setup
of the ceremony. During the closing ceremony, you will
hear what this experience meant to the participants.
If you can help with this Kairos weekend, or have questions,
please contact Dan Nelson at 336-643-9123.
Your friend in Christ, Dan Nelson (for Outreach)

Medicine Cabinet Checklist This content was originally printed in Piedmont Parent magazine.
6 Items Not to Keep in Your Medicine Cabinet:
1. Cough medicine with dextromethorphan - Not shown to work in kids (especially under age 6); has the potential for serious side
effects.
2. Decongestants - Not recommended by the FDA for children under 6.
3. Aspirin - Found to sometimes cause a serious disease called Reye syndrome. Use acetaminophen or ibuprofen instead.
4. Anti-diarrheal medicines - Using these may prolong intestinal infections in children.
5. Gas-relief drops - These are harmless but don’t always work.
6. Hydrogen peroxide - Not recommended for cleansing cuts, since it may cause tissue damage. Use soap and water instead.
What SHOULD be in my medicine cabinet?
Here are the medicine cabinet items you should have in your home, recommended by Dr. Suresh Nagappan, a pediatrician with Cone
Health Medical Group, Greensboro; Dr. Paul Smolen of Providence Pediatrics, Charlotte; and Dave Smithwick, a licenses registered
pharmacist & owner of Southern Village Pharmacy, Chapel Hill.
1. Antibacterial ointment and bandages - Use on scrapes and cuts to prevent them from becoming infected (Mupircin or Bactroban,
requires a prescription and is only for topical use).
2. Diaper rash cream (Zinc Oxide) - Layer it on to help clear diaper rash.
3. Antifungal cream - These creams kill or inactivate fungi and yeast.
4. Eye drops - A safe option for those who have allergies that result in itchy eyes.
5. Digital thermometer - A fever above 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit typically requires a trip to the doctor.
6. Medicine syringes - Use these to ensure accurate dosing.
7. Children’s Acetaminophen - Useful for reducing fevers and pain, this comes in liquid, chewable tablets or suppositories.
8. Benadryl (diphenhydramine) - Good for treating an allergic reaction or severe itching from bug bites or poison ivy.
9. Hydrocortisone ointment (1%) - Helpful for minor cases of poison ivy, insect bites or eczema.
10. Suction bulb - This is very useful to help with congestion in infants. It can be used with saline drops.
11. Pedialyte (or other rehydration fluid) - Useful for preventing dehydration when your child has a stomach bug.
12. Antacids - These correct acidity levels to help remedy stomachaches.
13. Ibuprofen - Another good option for reducing fevers and pain.
14. Calamine lotion - Another topical option for relieving itchy rashes or bug bites.
15. EPI pen - Prescribed to people who have sever allergies.
