Reflections from the Pastor:

Faith 5 – What’s It All About?

This is the beginning of Dr. Rich’s book ““Holding Your Family Together – 5 Simple Steps to Help Bring Your Family Closer to God and to Each Other”

He will turn the hearts of parents to their children and the hearts of children to their parents. MALACHI 4: 6

“Imagine raising a daughter who wouldn’t think of going to bed without talking to you about her highs and lows every night, even though she’s 16.

“Imagine raising a son who won’t turn out the lights without asking you about your day, praying for your highs and lows, and blessing you.

“Imagine growing up in a home where everyone feels loved, valued and heard every night; a family that seeks God’s wisdom, will and Word at the center of their lives; an intimate community where every night is an experience of caring, sharing, comfort and peace. Does this sound like an impossible dream? It isn’t. Does it sound like an improbable dream? Maybe. One thing is for sure: This dream is not going to magically materialize without intention, commitment and a workable plan on your part to make it happen. Having a close and caring family is a beautiful dream, but a dream without a plan isn’t worth a nickel. However, a dream with a workable plan may be worth a million bucks.

And here is the plan:

Step 1: SHARE your highs and lows every night.

Step 2: READ a key Bible verse or story every night.

Step 3: TALK about how the Bible reading might relate to your highs and lows every night.

Step 4: PRAY for one another’s highs and lows aloud every night.

Step 5: BLESS one another before turning out the lights on the day.

“Simple, huh? Actually, it is. The hardest part is not coming up with the plan but starting it and following through with it for the first few nights. After that, it gets easier and a lot more fun. My staff and I call this plan FAITH5, or “Faith Acts in the Home.” When you use this simple nightly routine intentionally and consistently over time, it will help you model compassion, empathy, reflection and care for your children.”

With these words Dr. Rich begins his wonderful book where he lays out a new way of being in relationship – a system for strong and healthy relationships and families of all kinds. So what is Faith 5 all about?

First – it is about deepening family relationships – for families of all kinds. It is possible the you may have received the impression that this Faith 5 system is just for families with children. While the benefits of Faith 5 for those kinds of nuclear families are obvious, this system is for families of all kinds – including single parent families, couples without children, or whose children are grown. It is for everyone.

2nd – it is about deepening our relationship with God. It is about bringing God into a closer and more intimate connection with our daily lives.

3rd – It is about being physically healthy – healthy relationships lower stress for everyone and make us over all healthy. But there is more than that, the entire system is designed to help move and keep us on a healthy track through exercise, strong relationships and prayer.

4th – It is about being mentally healthy – In order to be mentally healthy we need good sleep and a key to good sleep is lowered stress. What is the last thing you normally do before you go to bed? Is it conducive to good rest?

So, who do we do all of this? Dr. Rich has a system of 5 simple steps: Share, Read, Talk, Pray Bless.

Take a minute to share your high and your low with each other in your family. This begins to establish communication. Then read a brief scripture lesson together and talk about how this might apply to what you have already shared. Then pray for each other – “Dear Lord, thank you for the high; help her/him with the low.”

Then comes my favorite part – bless each other. When was the last time you offered a blessing to a loved one? Take your finger, give it a kiss and then draw the sign on the cross on the forehead of your loved one(s). That is all there is to it. This can take as long as or be as brief as you wish. And that’s it. But it is powerful.

Why not give it a try – just try what I have written above. We will be integrating this system into the ministry of the congregation and the parish, and we highly recommend that you take a little time and read the book. But you can get started with just this simple information. This system is a gift. Try it. Talk to Pastor or Julie if you have questions. And may God bless you and your loved ones.

sEMI

WELCA There will not be a business meeting in July. The next regular business meeting will be August 20th at 1:30

PM at which time we will elect officers. Hostesses for that meeting will be Lil Sternberg and Alice Sternberg. (If you are unable to serve, please call Alice at 826-5811 so that a substitute can be called). Our service project for August is collecting school supplies for local children in need of them. The next event for the Women of the ELCA will be the Fall Fellowship day at the DeSoto Park on September 10th, with registration and coffee hour at 9:30am. The cost of the registration and lunch is $6.00 for the wonderful BBQ prepared by the men at DeSoto. We will car pool from the parking lot at Peace, leaving at about 8:30am. Each year church groups are asked to volunteer one of the side dishes to go with the BBQ or one of the desserts. Peace volunteered to bring 5 (9 by 13) inch desserts for the noon meal, so we will need 5 volunteers to make them. We have not yet received a flyer about that event, but expect one will be in the mail soon. The flyer will be posted on the bulletin board near the piano in the fellowship hall when it comes in the mail. Plan now to go and also to help make desserts. Quilt tying continues usually on the 1st and 3rd Thursday, however since the first Thursday in July falls on the 4th of July we will only be tying on the 18th of July.

We would like to thank Melinda Raby and Michelle Gremmels for all the hard work they put into the VBS program. They do an excellent job. All the

teachers do a wonderful job decorating their classrooms and getting the lessons across to the kids. The kitchen workers put in lots of work getting the snack ready and putting on all the decals. The craft workers have lots of patience to help the kids make all the wonderful crafts. The helpers really help keep the kids in line and make it an enjoyable time for the kids. There are so many more people to thank – people who help with the registering, publicity, moving crew, sound people, custodians, people who make the snacks. It is amazing how many people it takes to have a well ran VBS. Everyone does an excellent job. Thanks to you all!

The Food Pantry is going strong and has been the recipient of some generous donations. A special thank you to all the churches in the Parish for

contributing to the LSI Challenge. LSI matched “dollar to can” up to $250.00 from each church. We are very grateful for the large contributions. I’ll keep you posted as to how much we ended up with. Dave’s IGA and the Steeleville Pharmacy are always very generous with any extra they don’t or can’t use. Dave supplies us with their close date bread goods as well as any and everything they can think of. Tony is always donating close date items carried in their store, especially candy! I always think how happy a young child is when they realize there are surprises from the Food Pantry, like candy and cookies. There are so many folks that come and drop food off, that we couldn’t name them all. But I do want to say thank you so very much. Every item of food is appreciated by me and the recipient. Without individual donations, we could not stay open! Thank you !

Wednesday All Stars Well folks, we are getting closer and closer to Wednesday All Stars. I can’t believe it’s almost here. We will start this year on Wednesday, September 11 2013.

Remember this is for all 4th, 5th and 6th graders in the community. As we did last year, we will begin at 2:30 on Wednesday afternoons for the change in dismissal time for the elementary school, but if you know of anyone who would like to attend All Stars, from a different school, they are welcome to come late. Registration forms are included in this newsletter, you can mail or bring them to the office, If you have questions please call Julie (618) 391-6561.

Even though it is only the beginning of July it is time to start thinking about Confirmation. Our Parish Confirmation program will begin officially with our annual Confirmation kick-off event for all parents and students that will be

held on Saturday, August 24 from 9 until 1:00. This important event will provide families the information they need as we begin confirmation. This year we are planning to integrate Faith 5 more actively into our confirmation program and we will need parents and others to lead small groups. Please let Pastor know if you could help out during the year. Classes will begin on Wednesday, August 28 at 6:00. We will again be using the Faith Inkubators curiculuum. Please return your registration form no later than the end of July, or go to the confirmation page at wartburgparish.com and fill out the registration. We are looking forward to a large and enthusiastic group this coming year.

Wartburg Parish Pastors to Attend Churchwide Assembly: Each 3 years the ELCA convenes a churchwide assembly. This important event will bring together representatives from all over the country for a week of deliberations and worship. This year the August assembly will be held in Pittsburg and among the elected delegates are two of our own Parish pastors. Both Pastor Laura and Pastor Ken will be attending the churchwide assembly as representatives of the Central/Southern Illinois Synod. Please keep them in your prayers as they prepare and attend this important event in the life of the church. The assembly will go from August 11 through August 17 and one important item will be the election of the Presiding Bishop. Also, much of the worship is broadcast live on the internet. We will include information in the bulletin as we get closer for those of you who might like to experience (via the internet) assembly worship. ADULT FORUM is on break for the summer.

Pastor Duncan is considering doing a class next

fall entitled “What is the Least I Can Believe and

Still Be A Christian – A Guide to What Matters

Most.” The title and the idea all come from a

book by that title by Pastor Martin Thielen, a

Methodist Pastor who has written this book as a

response to much of the questioning from

parishoners and others that he has experienced

during his ministry. Individual class and chapter

titles include: Jesus Identity: Who is Jesus?

Jesus’ Priority: What Matters Most?; Jesus’

Grace: Am I Accepted. There is also a section

with a list of 10 Things Christians Don’t Need to

Believe.

Plan now to join us for forum in the fall –

Sunday mornings during Sunday School time. If

you have comments or questions please feel free

to contact the Pastor. If you would like to see the

book and read it in advance contact the Pastor.

A rip-roarin’ good time with Jesus! Vacation Bible School was held from June 17 through June 21, 2013. The theme was SonWest Roundup. Out in the wide-open spaces, we discovered a

colorful old town where all the excitement of the Wild West awaited us! We saddled up and had a rip-roarin’ good time with Jesus! Best of all, at SonWest Roundup we traveled down the trail through the Old Testament stories of Moses to discover God’s ultimate plan of salvation in Jesus, because “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.” (Hebrews 13:8) Once again, we had a wonderful turnout of children from our church and community and had a great week. We just want to say thank you again to everyone who helped make SonWest Roundup a HUGE success! We could not have done it without the help and support of the entire congregation. The children collected a total of 385 cans for our food pantry. They also brought a total of $147.25 in offerings throughout the week that will help to offset the expenses related to Vacation Bible School. The entire week was a wonderful testament of how God does good works through his people! We are looking forward to next year! Thanks again, Melinda Raby and Michelle Gremmels, VBS Directors

LIFE STAGES PLANNING

Providing for Your Family and

God’s Family

Who needs a will? When

do I need a will? What is the

difference between a will and a trust? What is a

living will? What is a power of attorney? Who will

care for my children if something happens to my

spouse and I; how can I provide for them? How can

I remember my church in my estate planning?

Have you ever asked these questions and didn’t

know where to turn or who to ask? Did you know

your stewardship to your church could live on after

you are gone? Did you know that the ELCA has

investment opportunities for current income and for

legacy planning?

On September 22, 2013, the Stewardship

Committee of Peace Lutheran Church - Steeleville

and the Wartburg Parish Council are co-sponsoring

an opportunity for fellowship and answers to these

questions in the Peace Lutheran Fellowship Hall.

All members of the Wartburg Parish, as well as St.

Luke’s – Campbell Hill and Zion – Walsh, are

invited. The evening will begin with a potluck

supper at 5:00pm, followed at 6:00pm by informal

presentations from Mr. Gary Miller, an attorney

from Murphysboro and Ms. Jennifer Prinz, ELCA

Foundation- Illinois Regional Gift Planner. Mr.

Miller will provide general information on estate

planning and the need for keeping those plans up to

date at the various stages of life. Ms. Prinz will

provide information on investment opportunities

through the ELCA Foundation that can be used for

retirement planning and legacy planning. Each one

will make a 15-20 minute presentation with an

opportunity for questions afterward.

This event is strictly for information

purposes only to help you be better informed and

make your own life stage plans. It is not

asolicitation for business. The Wartburg Parish and

Peace Lutheran will provide the drinks, dinner ware

and meat entrée for the supper, all participants are

asked to bring a covered dish and/or dessert to

share. Sign-up sheets will be posted in each

congregation prior to the event to help us plan for

seating and food. Childcare will be provided.

There comes a place that no one can help us, but the Father.
